EVERY SO OFTEN PEOPLE LIKE TO TALK ABOUT US……………..

“AT THE heart of the indie coffee bar scene, Climpson & Sons is a pioneer. Its USP, apart from quality long blacks and flat whites, is roasting coffee from scratch. Head barista, Matthew Dessaix, is a perfectionist: “We won’t serve a bad coffee. We’d rather throw it away.” Packed on Saturday market days, the rest of the week it’s a chilled-out spot to eat (cinnamon toast with cream cheese and honey, £2.20). Take home their signature espresso blend, £4 for a 250g bag of beans”

“Macchiato, piccolo, zola, gibraltar… you can have it all at this excellent coffee shop in the middle of Broadway Market. The baristas are mostly antipodean, and all do an exceptional job at pulling the perfect shots. Their quest for self-improvement is continuous, in the form of new latte art, or the investment in naked La Marzocco portafilters (which allow baristas to see whether or not they’re pulling the perfect shot). Such coffee geekiness is charming”
