Excellent coffee can be found here. Great for a quick bite and a decent cup of joe. Staff are friendly, the coffee is good value, and there are seats to people watch. What more could you want?
The best and smoothest cappuccino I've had in London! Sad to see the main coffee is moved to Dalston (geez). Have the breakfast plate with jamon.
Ashley DandoJuly 23, 2018Good snacks and even better coffee. It is always busy but worth the wait for a perfectly made cup.
Kostas KoukoravasNovember 27, 2014The red church blend is fantastic. Heavy mouthfeel with chocolate and earthy notes. They sell fresh coffee to take home. I wish they had a 'roasted on' date on their bags.
Rachel RothOctober 21, 2018Great latte and small breakfast menu. Its a tiny place, and popular, so you can’t count on a place to sit.
A.J. BrahmNovember 24, 2019Cozy, Kiwi-backed roaster with multiple storefronts internationally. Good espresso. Cortado, as well.
Best cold brew I’ve found in London. Really good espresso as well.
New Zealand's best coffee, now in London. Definitely one if the top 5 coffees in town. Ignore the whingey comments and savour a truly delicious coffee.
Ross WSApril 13, 2013One of New Zealand's most popular coffee brands, Allpress has decided to up the ante in London with a cafe and roastery tucked away here in Shorditch.
Fabulous coffee, fresh cakes, a little more room to sit than in other places and even a narrow bench outside if it's warm.
Ranno KasemaaMarch 9, 2014Brilliant place to have an afternoon coffee or real handmade lemonade. Service somewhat chaotic during busy hours, but charming never the less.
BJanuary 17, 2016Cappuccino and latte are overly milky. Salt beef sandwiches are perfect for breakfast.
Callum ChapmanJuly 17, 2013Awesome flat whites. Can't wait to try more. Pork & Sweet Potato sandwich was nice (especially the bread) but felt if was missing something!
Tim FallsAugust 5, 2012For the dumb Americans: Americano is the Long Black. Nifty thing is that they give you the water to add to the espresso yourself. Fun!
Simon SaintJune 13, 2015Good coffee, but the serving staff tend to play up the diffident "Batista artiste". Make sure you know what you want and what they serve before ordering or you'll have to endure their total disdain..
Alyce BargeryDecember 9, 2018Delicious, delicious coffee. The breakfast board is an excellent way to start a day of sightseeing
Consistently good filter coffee drips. Sandwiches are off the charts awesome.
Zoe KeysSeptember 17, 2013Fantastic coffee and great service from friendly staff. Make sure you pop in before 4 for a breakfast plate and great people watching.
Jonny BurchJanuary 15, 2015Small but perfectly formed, morning coffee while the guys make delicious looking sandwiches
They make a really good Granola with apple slices in the yogurt, and a great Piccolo coffee too.

One of the tastiest coffees in London. Set up is more coffee bar than coffee shop- Janus DøssingOctober 21, 2021The americano’s here are just perfect. Twice as much hot water as espresso - just as the Italians do
Evening StandardMay 22, 2012A clean, well-run operation that has folk in from all over London trying out the coffee menu — all roasted and blended on site. Read more
Jonathan NguyenNovember 25, 2014The doppio is smooth, they roast onsite and the breakfast is decent. A little slice of ANZ in Shoreditch
Matt ThomasApril 30, 2013I've heard the coffee is great, but I just don't get to work early enough to be in a queue for half an hour. Thank goodness that new Pret has opened on the high street.
Justin Van EmmerikJanuary 24, 2016Allpress in London! As an Aussie you will identify with this brand and this lovely craft coffee café.
One of the best coffee shops in London although it's recently downsized. Own beans used #Allpress- Wallpaper* MagazineMay 23, 2011If you aren’t already aware of New Zealand’s claim to some of the world’s finest coffee shops, a cup of signature Redchurch blend at Allpress Espresso’s café is a must.

Very busy place on the weekend, my Flat White didn't get a whole lot of attention. Shame, because the espresso is quite excellent.
Abdullah AljumaAugust 11, 2014If you live near hear, its really worth grabbing your coffee from this café rather than Large chain coffee shops.
SarahMarch 27, 2012Coffee superb, staff super friendly, laid back and brekkie simple but delicious. Ask for a ice coffee - yummy!
Oliver WatersAugust 30, 2014Great Flat White. £5 min spend on card but they provide credit for your next visit.
Their sandwiches deserve as much attention and praise as the coffee IMO. Delish.
Nick BainJuly 27, 2012Brilliant place to people watch. You def won't feel out of place instagramming your very delicious flat white!
Great for coffee(from NZ) & tea. For breakfast go for egg and soldiers.
Duncan McintoshFebruary 1, 2016What happened here ?! Coffee good as always but the staff are now insecure with attitude side eye smirk. Get a grip ladies
The best coffee in London. Staff friendly but agree with others; Slow and disorganised. Annoying £5 min. on card.
veronica shleinaNovember 10, 2012Great strong coffee. They have their own roastery which means a lot

"One of the very best, OG third wave coffee shops in London. They showcase not only Square Mile but many of Europe’s best roasters, plus they have a training center downstairs. Great music, too."
