Nuria and Amar run a stripped-back espresso kiosk on Granary Square; coffee first, nothing else. The cortado is the order.

The cortado is the reason Nuria and Amar's Granary Square kiosk works.

  • •Cortado and flat white the standout orders; the cortado is the one to have
  • •Personal operation run by Nuria and Amar, small enough that regulars know them by name
  • •Oat milk available

Gramos Coffee Bar★★★ Purist

Down a stairwell inside King's Cross station, past the ticket hall and the Harry Potter shop, sits a full roastery-run espresso bar with beans rotating by the week. Tell the team what you're after and they'll point you to the right cup.

Hermanos Colombian Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Their own Colombian single-origins, roasted at the brand's own roastery and traceable to named producers, poured from a takeaway kiosk by the station. It's the kind of pedigree you don't expect from a coffee grabbed on the way to a train.

Frequency Coffee Kings Cross★★ Specialty

A short walk from King's Cross station, worth the detour when the alternative is a station-chain coffee before your train.
