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.

What we love

  • Espresso kiosk on Granary Square: no food menu, no distractions
  • 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

Gramos roast their own beans and pour them a floor below King's Cross, with rare varietals and fermented-process lots on the menu. The team at the counter will point you toward something specific based on what you actually like.

Hermanos Colombian Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

The roastery is the cafe, which means the Kings Cross counter is where you taste the Colombian single-origins at their source. Best Independent Coffee Shop at London Coffee Festival 2025, which lands differently when the roaster is on the premises.

Frequency Coffee Kings Cross★★ Specialty

Frequency roasts its own beans and serves them across espresso, V60, and AeroPress from the same King's Cross counter. That closed loop between roast and cup is rare this close to the station.
