The Difference
At Artisan the roar of the grinder kicks in once you’ve made your order so you know your coffee will be fresh every time.
Artisan is a coffee focused, fun loving space that flirts with pushing design boundaries. We have built everything by hand around the Barista, so they have the space they need to prepare the most beautiful coffees. Our Baristas treat each cup like a fine chef does a meal, taking pride and time to ensure each coffee is flawless. We continuously adjust the grind to allow for changes in the atmosphere, which is just one of the many steps we take to make sure your espresso is just right. Surprisingly our Baristas also like to clean… we clean vital parts of our lovely La Marzocco FB/80 all day long.
We like to get geeky – we spend our evenings talking about brew ratios, TDS levels (that’s the water and our reverse osmosis system), water pressure and, microfoam, to name a few. This is not just because we love what we do, but because we want you to discover the beauty of great coffee.
The Roaster
We source our freshly roasted beans from Curious Roo Coffee Rosters. They are an independent small batch roastery and source specialty grade coffee from origins around the world – their methods are simple, they take a lot of love, great ingredients, expertise in roasting and bring them all together with heaps of passion.
Drip Coffee
Looking for great filter coffee in London – if you’re looking for it we don’t need to explain how good it is. It takes a little longer and is served using single origin coffee from Curious Roo Coffee Roasters who are as passionate about freshness, quality and exceptional taste as we are.
The Vibe
On October 31st 2011 at 7am, Magda turned on the Artisan playlist and Jive Bunny and the Mastermixes set us on our way. We haven’t looked back and spend happy evenings selecting the Artisan playlists. All shops have been designed to create a fun and funky atmosphere, with the art on the walls changing every three months as we focus on providing opportunities to local artists to promote their work. At Artisan we just love music blaring, customers laughing and chatting and the coffee pumping with perfect extraction and beautiful latte art.
