Our story

Small warm café, in a quiet corner of Hackney.

We are an independent, plant-based coffee shop serving speciality coffee, home-made bakes and freshly made sandwiches, from a small shop on the corner of Richmond Road in Hackney.

We roast our own beans in small batches in the back of the shop. We opened in 2019, so come say hello and meet us!
