Kiss the Hippo Coffee Covent Garden★★★ Purist

Kiss the Hippo roasts its own coffee, and the Covent Garden baristas will talk you out of the house blend and into a single origin before you've decided what you want.

WatchHouse Covent Garden★★★ Purist

WatchHouse roasts its own coffee at a dedicated South London facility, and this Covent Garden room serves it as single origins with a tasting card on every cup.
