Roasts its own at the Ouseburn roastery, sells online, and pours a flat white that outstrips most of what Newcastle is serving. The decaf is the other reason to visit.

The Ouseburn micro-roaster's city counter, where the flat white is the point.

Pink Lane Coffee★★★ Purist

Every flat white here starts at Pink Lane's own roastery, roasted across town and graded to the SCA's 80+ specialty threshold. Single origins are traceable back to the farm they came from.

Café 11★ Everyday

Independent espresso bar near the RVI where the coffee earns genuine praise, not just the benefit of the doubt. The owner is there, and the regulars notice.

Tiny Tiny★ Everyday

Come for the Turkish eggs, order the flat white. Order it again.
