Monmouth Coffee Company

"Monmouth helped build London's specialty scene from the ground up, and a visit to the bean counter, where staff walk you through farm-level tasting notes before you buy, is still one of the best coffee experiences the city offers."

What we love

• •Own roastery with direct farm relationships; beans sold by named single-origin lot with per-farm tasting notes
• •Guided tastings at the counter before you buy are standard practice, not a special occasion
• •Retail bean programme covers origins from across the coffee-growing world, with filter and espresso options available in-cup
• •A community of regulars who come weekly for beans and sourcing advice sets the tone of the room
