We now have our coffee roasted for us to bring our customers that extra special tasting cup of coffee.

100% Arabica, medium roast is our Continental blend which our customers are loving. This is a smooth coffee leaving no bitter after taste which is perfect if you like espresso.

it is also available to take home in our 227g packets, bean or ground. Cost is £3.99 which is excellent value for this grade of coffee.

We will occasionally bring in a guest coffee for those who like to experiment. Enjoy!
