Pull the lever, slow the morning.
A café and gallery on Princelet Street in Spitalfields — lever-pulled espresso, slow filter, pastries, and rotating exhibitions of local artists.
Take the tour from your chair.
One lever, one grinder, one house blend.
The espresso is pulled on a vintage lever — slow, mechanical, gentle on the bean. We rotate two single origins on filter, and one house blend for milk drinks. The board behind the counter tells you what's on today.
A small list, made carefully.
The beans change every fortnight; the bakes change every morning. Here's what's on the board this week.
Espresso, pulled by hand
Almond croissant, twice-baked
Flat white, single origin
Pistachio & white chocolate cookie
Cold brew, steeped overnight
Pastries, cakes, and the occasional loaf.
We bake croissants, cardamom buns and sourdough each morning before the doors open. A slice or two of cake lands by ten. When it's gone, it's gone — and tomorrow is a different bake.
Your art on our walls.
We rent wall space to local artists by the month. Hang your work where Spitalfields drinks its coffee — choose a size, send us a link, and we'll find you a spot in the next rotation.
