  • Does/has anyone have/had coffee at Fernandez & Wells on Beak Street near Oxford street~ish? I had a friend who used to work there and got free coffee occaisionally so always thought it was amazing. Just wondered what the "educated" thought of it!

    I've found them to be a bit hit and miss actually. Definitely depends on who is serving, sometimes it's been great, other times it's been a bit grim on the coffee front. Food, on the other hand is amazing. Check out the other Fernandez and Wells on St Annes Court, had a fantastic red pepper soup there.

    Laystall Street.

    So.. 10 minutes to Espresso Rooms.
    7 minutes to Bea's.
    7 minute's to Brill (Very fond of this place)
    4 minutes to Full City (Good and sometimes great coffee for £1)
    15 minutes to LMNH
    7 minutes to Modern Pantry
    10 minutes to Dose

    Otherwise it's just local little cafes which serve scalding hot milk/espresso based drinks or chain stores which serve limp, luke warm pints of milk with some espresso flavouring.

    Not CRAZY far. But the point is that you'd have to drink it en-route which I hate (Drinking from shitty cups while walking. I invariably spill it down my shirt.)
    If you wait to get back it's gone cold which is no fun.

    When the rapha/nude pop-up was there it took 20 seconds which was just fine :)

    The Rapha pop-up was the greatest thing ever. I was working literally next door the whole time it was there, so perfect.

    You need to start heading for Caravan. Really great coffee, knowledgeable baristas up on the corner of Exmouth Market, probably the nearest and best to you until that new place on Leather Lane opens (was speaking to one of the guys at Notes yesterday who's going to be working there – full brew bar, traditional espresso menu and they're going to be training people to make coffee as well. The whole 9 yards).
