Really nice location right outside the British Library! I'm an Origin coffee subscriber and love their beans...but make your own pour over at home as it's £6 in the cafe! The flat white I got in the cafe was disappointing compared to their bean quality - very acidic. Pastry (pecan sticky buns) was quite good. Small interior with bar seating inside and a few chairs outside.

Warmly recommend this cozy spot! I indulged in a velvety Oat milk Latte made with Resolute beans - rich, smooth, nutty. Paired it with a moist Lemon Poppy Seed cake. Absolutely perfect for a chilly day. Highly recommend!

Haven’t been here for years after moving out of London. Same lovely coffee that worth a detour from Kings Cross. Nice little cup of cortado with fresh fruity notes. (Interesting to see the cortado and flat white st the same price :3)
