CoffeeWithout theOrdinary.

Twelve seats, one espresso machine we are unreasonably attached to, and pastries laminated over three days. Pull up a stool.

01

Your daily dose of good.

Eight things we make every single day, and the eight things people come back for. Everything else rotates.

Espresso

Two ounces of pure intent.

3.20

Cappuccino

Foam you can stand a spoon in.

4.40

Flat White

Silk, in a small cup.

4.60

Cold Brew

Steeped for eighteen hours.

5.20

Ask the bar what is on the V60 today.

One rotating single origin, brewed by hand, changed every Monday. It is never on the menu board on purpose.

Iced Matcha Latte

Ceremonial grade, whisked to order.

5.80

Butter Croissant

Twenty-seven layers. We counted.

4.00

Chocolate Chunk Cookie

Crisp edge, molten middle.

3.80

Coffee Layer Cake

Dessert that drinks like a cup.

6.50

Sausage Roll

Juicy sausage in a soft roll – hearty, flavourful, and delicious.

Pick a lane.

Eight categories, one counter. Switch between them to see what is waiting.

Cappuccino

Foam you can stand a spoon in.

4.40

Flat White

CoffeeIs aRitual.

  1. 07:02Grind fine. Weigh it twice.
  2. 07:03Bloom for thirty seconds.
  3. 07:07Pour slow. Wait. Repeat tomorrow.

Made for slow mornings and late nights.

We opened with twelve seats and a rule: nobody gets rushed. Since then the shop has become a first-coffee spot, a laptop corner, a first-date excuse and a place people bring their parents.

Why No. 12?

  • 01

    Good Coffee

    Dialled in twice a day, tasted every hour, and thrown out when it is not right.

  • 02

    Good People

    A bar team that is paid properly, trained constantly, and actually happy to see you.

  • 03

    Good Food

    Everything baked in the back room. If it did not come out well, it does not go out.

  • 04

    Good Energy

    Records on, laptops welcome until 4pm, conversation encouraged after that.

Stay for another cup.

One email a month: what is on the brew bar, new pastries, and the odd invitation to a Sunday cupping. No noise.
