This is a great idea conjured up by Gwilym Davies. Simply pick up one of these cards from one of the particapating cafes and away you go. After visiting all the cafes on the card you’ll qualify for free coffee from the world champion himself.

New Espresso

Like sand through an hour glass, so are the days…. oh wait. New Espresso Time!

As the temperature plummets, windows start to mist up, mountains of leaves roam the parks like wilderbeast and small dogs skitter on wet pavements in leopard print Gucci sweaters, the time for an espresso revision has finally arrived.

The cafe has been serving the final versions this week with much feedback, and the full launch is but a week away.

Stay tuned…

New Location in Central London

We’re branching out

We’ve been working on opening a new coffee cart in central london for a few months now, and the time has finally arrived! Climpson & Sons now have a coffee cart outside Match Bar on Margaret St, W1. Some of you already know that the cart we used at the Big Chill was a test run for the new equipment and it all went swimmingly. Matt has been working hard to finalise the operation and he’s now cranking out Climpson & Sons caffeinated craziness at a cracking pace for the 9-to-5′ers around Oxford Circus.

The Match Bar have been amazing in lending us their street frontage, and were eager to bring us into the West End to complement their divine cocktails. We’re open from 8am – 3pm, then the bar opens and we grab a comfy couch to relax in.

So if your in the area, drop by to say ‘Hi’ and grab a quick latte.
