Sheffield's original Kiwi-style café, inside a converted 19th-century silversmiths in the Cultural Industries Quarter, pouring Ozone Coffee Roasters. Brunch made it an institution; the flat whites earned the reputation.

What we love

  • Roaster partner: Ozone Coffee Roasters, a London specialty operation with Kiwi origins, matching the café's own provenance
  • Set inside a converted 19th-century silversmiths in Sheffield's Cultural Industries Quarter
  • New Zealand espresso culture in practice: flat whites and extraction-focused ordering rather than volume
  • Named after the tamper, the barista tool used to compress grounds before pulling a shot

Frazer's Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Frazer roasts on-site in a machine he built himself, with national awards to show for it. The team know the pre-release stock and will pull something not yet on the floor if you ask.

2323 Coffee★★ Specialty

The founders are still behind the bar, rotating single origins every couple of weeks and running coffee flights for anyone who wants to go further. The people who have worked through Sheffield's specialty scene keep ending up back here.

Coffee @ Moor Market★★ Specialty

Brew Moor is Sheffield's own roastery, operating from a stall inside Moor Market rather than a dedicated space. Everything is roasted in-house, and the beans are on the shelf to take home.
