The best coffee shops in the United Kingdom, according to the experts: The Infatuation and Eater have both weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Bar Italia comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in London.
More Less
15Grams Coffee House and Algerian Coffee Stores hold the next two places. The Infatuation shows up on more of this list than any other guide, with Eater next.
-
Rank 1. Bar Italia
Coffee
The espresso has been bitter here for as long as anyone can remember, and that is precisely the point. Bar Italia is an old-school Italian coffee bar on Soho's Frith Street, the kind of place that watched a restaurant literally called Flavour Bastard open and close across the street without blinking. Cold Peroni, bacon ciabatta, fluorescent light: nothing changes, nothing needs to.

Rank 2. Nagare Coffee
Coffee
Nagare is a Spitalfields coffee shop that treats a flat white like a small ceremony. The dark wood chairs look antique in a way that took some planning, and the milky white La Marzocco sits behind the counter like a piece of kitchen design you'll be quietly coveting by the second sip. Beans can come from a small-batch roaster in Hong Kong, and the menu covers iced, milky, filter, and drip. Expect a quick coffee and a very photogenic pause.
