We serve some of London's finest speciality coffee in a space designed to inspire.
Our rotating exhibitions bring the work of local and emerging artists directly to you —
displayed on our walls, available to purchase, and brought to life through regular workshops and events.
Whether you're here to slow down over a perfect flat white, discover new art, or join one of our
creative evenings, Brush & Lever is your corner of Spitalfields.
Single-origin beans and seasonal roasts, prepared with precision and care. Espresso-based drinks, pourovers, aeropress, and more — alongside teas, hot chocolates, and house-made syrups.
Our walls are never the same twice. We rotate exhibitions from London's emerging and established artists, making Brush & Lever a gallery you can linger in with a coffee in hand.
From latte art workshops and life drawing sessions to jazz evenings and exhibition openings — there's always something happening at Brush & Lever. All skill levels welcome.
Every piece on our walls is available to own. We sell directly on behalf of our artists, with enquiries handled personally. Each sale supports the creative community we're building.

Coffee, community, and creativity in the heart of Spitalfields
Brush & Lever is a family business, founded by Ruhul Choudory and Fateha Choudory with a simple belief: that great coffee and great art belong in the same room. Nestled on Princelet Street in Spitalfields — one of London's most creative and historically rich neighbourhoods — they set out to build something more than a coffee shop.
At the heart of Brush & Lever is a deep love of speciality coffee. We source beans from distinct growing regions around the world and offer them across a range of brewing styles — from espresso-based drinks and flat whites to pourovers and aeropress — so that every cup reflects the character of where it came from and how it was made.
Craftsmanship and quality guide everything we do, whether that's the precision behind a perfectly pulled shot or the care we take in choosing which artists exhibit on our walls. Our rotating exhibitions bring emerging and established local artists directly to you, and our events — from latte art workshops to jazz evenings — are designed to bring people together.
