The flat white is the best in Didsbury, which most people don't know because they came for the eggs and sausages. Order both.

Didsbury's best flat white, inside a breakfast place that leads with the kitchen.

Bean Coffee★★★ Purist

The roastery is their own and every origin is traceable to the farm. The menu runs from espresso to Chemex to Aeropress, with tasting notes that explain what's in the cup.

200 Degrees Coffee Shop★★ Specialty

200 Degrees roasts its own beans, and the Didsbury bar makes good on that with espresso bolder and less sweet than anything the chains pour.

Hikari Koffee★ Everyday

Coffee and matcha with equal seriousness is rarer than it sounds. The espresso brings real freshness and a rich cup; the matcha earns the same trust.
