Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

we are doing the best coffee we can. Many years ago we broke down the drink building process with one eye on tradition and ignoring the mass market structured our menu based around very specific drink building techniques and approaches.

its a business based on recognising how important the detail is, how important the people working there are and the significance of relationships.

In a nutshell If you like to dialogue with people working in coffee or are a bit anal about your drinks, we are a place you want to visit

What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?

Germany, turkey, denmark, US, Any Scandinavian but particularly Norway & Denmark

About Me:

love making coffee for people with the care and attention you would if making for yourself.

The longer we exist the less we operate like your 'suppose to' or in normative commercial ways. For example? For example we just took the menu boards down and stuck them on an out of the way wall over there. One person has said something so far the rest look at you instead of up there and ask for 'a cup of coffee'.

Know the rules first, then ignore them....go on try it

About My Company:
