27 Clerkenwell Rd (at St John St), London, Greater London

Jokke Martens: This picture is of the venue in Marylebone. However! Both give extraordinary good coffee. MUST-visit if you're in London. Man up and drink some black filter.
Jokke Martens: I visited this place way too much in July. They're aeropresses are just so tasteful and complex. The El Salvador had a wonderful apple-acidity. The Kenya was wonderfully juicy. The Olke Bire... Mmm

Jokke Martens: Drank my first good siphon brew, after I thought it couldn't be done. That showed me. Easily the best place to have coffee in Berlin. Their filters are my cup of tea (pun intended).
Coffee Shop · City of Westminster · 165 tips and reviews
Jokke Martens: Nice clean cup. 2 times in a row. One v60, one woodneck. Really well extracted, these were just treats to drink really. It's hard to decide which is my favourite coffeeshop of London..
Jokke Martens: Drank so many good ones here. From a wonderful black berried Columbia to a nice and floral Panama.. Never have I had a bad filter. Never. Over the many filters I've had here. That's saying something.

Jokke Martens: Drank a lovely Kenya here. It was like a juicy smooth gush of sweet blackcurrant, with some citron-like acidity that wasn't in-your-face, but just nicely sat beside that lovely bush of berries.
Jokke Martens: Favourite in Antwerp? I think it is. Drop coffee and Hasbean (only Jailbreak blend, I believe). All namedropping aside. You can safely order a filter and just let your tastebuds enjoy.
