The coffee flight on the menu is the tell: a Cliftonville brunch spot that has put real thought into the espresso side. The kitchen pulls the crowd; the coffee is there for whoever looks past the eggs.

Skinny Dip Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

An own-roastery café in a Margate arts studio, where the owner roasts everything on-site and pairs each coffee to its ideal brew method. Three manual options behind the counter, sourcing traced to named producers, and an owner who gives you more specifics about the cup than you thought to ask for.

Curve Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Tereza and Jon have been roasting in Margate since 2016 on a Loring Smart machine, with single origins named to producer level and tasting notes on everything. Cuppings and talks run as live programming, not occasional marketing.

We Are Here Coffee★★ Specialty

A working roastery tucked into a Margate yard, where the menu runs further than the standard espresso bar. Production happens on-site; the named ranges are their own.
