Small-batch coffee, roasted on site at Ferro and poured the same way every time — no house blend that changes with the supplier.
Every bag sold at the counter was roasted in the room behind it, on a 12kg drum roaster run by one person. When we sell out of a roast, we sell out — we don't bulk-order in a substitute to fill the shelf.
Dialled in every morning before opening, checked again at midday. A flat white here tastes the same on a Tuesday as it does on a Saturday — that's the actual craft, not the latte art on top.
Farm or cooperative, altitude, process, harvest date — on every retail bag, not just the ones that sound impressive. If we can't tell you where a bean came from, it doesn't go on the shelf.
Arch 12, Spa Road, Bermondsey, London SE16. Coffee to take away or drink in — no laptops after 11am on weekends, we're small.
