Speciality Coffee & Kitchen

Where every cup tells a story

Tucked away on Marchmont Street, we've been roasting beans and baking sourdough since 2019. Proper coffee, honest food, good people.

Started with a broken espresso machine and a dream

When Sarah and Tom opened The Corner Brew in the winter of 2019, the idea was simple: serve the kind of coffee they wished they could find on every corner. Single-origin beans, roasted weekly by a small roastery in Hackney, pulled with care.

The food came later — sourdough toasties, seasonal salads, and cakes baked fresh each morning by Tom's mum, Jean. Five years on, not much has changed. We still roast the same way, we still know your name, and Jean's carrot cake still sells out by noon.

“Genuinely the best flat white in Bloomsbury. And Jean's carrot cake is dangerous.”
