Where To Drink It: Quality Chop House Shop

It is always exciting to work with people who value provenance, quality and flavour as much as we do; like our latest wholesale partner the Quality Chop House Shop. Based on the corner of Exmouth Market, this grocers shop and butchers has been supplying Farringdon with meats, charcuterie and daily staples since early 2013. More recently it has become renowned for its Friday offer of freshly made doughnuts and roast meat sandwiches, all made in the restaurant next door. 

If you are a regular to Exmouth Market, dining at the restaurant or just in need of some fresh coffee you can now drop into the Quality Chop House Shop, stocking a range of Workshop Coffee beans, alongside brewing equipment, grinders and filter papers.

Where To Drink It: Bold Street Coffee and Duke Street Espresso

 

Founded by Sam Tawil in 2010, Bold Street Coffee is arguably the centre of Liverpool’s speciality coffee scene. While the bright red La Marzocco FB-80 is the focal point of the bar, Bold Street also prides itself on serving a wide range of filter coffees. More than that, Bold Street has become famous for its regularly changing menu of breakfasts and salads. 

 

If you find that all seats are full at Bold Street, only a short distance away is it’s airy sister cafe - Duke Street Espresso. This compact, slate black espresso bar is a great location to stop while touring the streets of Liverpool. On top of offering a range of different filter, espresso and cold brew coffees, they also have a toast bar with almost every conceivable condiment.

Both locations are a great place to visit to try a changing range of our single origin coffees or a Cult of Done espresso.

Where to Drink It: The Wren

uih4djBk1oCYOeJCSOLbhR18jeMaEYR7RzwBMq6nLrMMany people have remarked that this might be the ‘grandest’ or most interesting space to enjoy speciality coffee in London. There is no denying that when we were approached by the team behind The Wren we were very excited to see their venue. The cafe is part of a St. Nicholas Cole Abbey that lies just South of St. Paul’s Cathedral. In fact, the church and the cathedral were both designed by Sir Christopher Wren - hence the name. 

The high ceilings and tall stained glass windows create an a level of light incomparable with any other coffee shop we know. The open space is great for larger gatherings or just a solitary flat white while admiring the finer details of the stain glass windows. As the summer rolls in the outdoor mezzanine, set away and above from the street, is the one of the best places to watch the bustle of The City of London while you enjoy a Cult of Done espresso or V60 filter brew.

Where to Drink It: Full Court Press

Screen Shot 2014-04-23 at 18.01.50Small but perfectly formed, Full Court Press is Bristol's answer to the multi-roaster coffee bar. The name itself - a reference to a defensive tactic used in basketball - indicates a no compromise approach. For Mat North and his team at Full Court Press, this means an emphasis on great espresso and filter coffee, served with honest, informative and exemplary service.

We have been really excited to work more and more with Full Court Press and were lucky enough to take part in one of their takeover weeks, during which Full Court Press served exclusively Workshop Coffee filter and espresso coffees, putting a special emphasis on the origin of our coffees. We are really excited to develop this partnership further and have no doubt that the people of Bristol will be enjoying more excellent Workshop Coffee at Full Court Press in the coming weeks, months and hopefully years!

Where To Drink It: Hoxton North

Hoxton North

We were thrilled when we first met Tim and Vicky, who had grand plans to return to their hometown of Harrogate and take a little of bit of London with them. Hoxton North - a espresso bar and cafe - is the culmination of many months planning and hard work.

Hoxton North has a unique design with dark wood and Victorian brass antiques that bridge the gap between the history of the location and the modernity of the coffee scene. Elegant corner window seats allow you to admire the stone architecture of Parliament Street. Of particular note is ‘the Snug’: a large wooden table in a private booth  inset into the wall opposite the bar. This distinct area of the cafe is an intimate location from which to watch the preparation of your Cult of Done Espresso or enjoy a private chat with friends.

The team at Hoxton North have already begun running regular coffee tasting events and are more than happy to chat with you about the different Workshop espresso and filter they have available from a regularly changing menu.
