A well-run independent tucked into Walmgate where the espresso delivers and the service is the kind people come back for.

The 4.9 is built on hospitality as much as on the espresso.

One Sip Coffee★ Everyday

The Turkish and English breakfasts are why people come to Walmgate. The coffee keeps pace without being the point.

Gatehouse Coffee★ Everyday

Order the pour over and take in the view from the city walls. Few coffee stops have a setting like this.
