The house beans are roasted in Peckham and brewed at the bar, which makes this a roastery visit, not just a coffee stop. Order the pour-over on whatever single origin is current.

The beans are roasted where they're brewed, which is worth crossing London for.

What we love

  • Ukkei Coffee is its own roastery; sourcing, roasting, and packaging all happen before the cup reaches you
  • Colombia single-origin on pour-over; at least one reviewer described body, finish, and balance accurately, not just 'nice'
  • Manual brew bar focus throughout; the name is the brief
  • Retail bags from the current roast available to take home

Calm Coffee Roastery★★ Specialty

One of very few London roasters working with laurina and aramosa, two low-caffeine cultivars sourced by named origin from Colombia and Brazil. The bags are the point.

Old Spike Peckham★★ Specialty

Old Spike is a roastery that runs a cafe, not the other way around. The Brazilian house blend is the espresso to order, and the baristas here trained on it as part of a social enterprise mission that puts craft at the centre.

Daydreamer★★ Specialty

The Peckham outpost of Elsewhere Coffee, one of London's sharper specialty roasters. Filter is the focus, and it's landing.
