Superb Ethical Coffee
Coffee Kings of Coffee Corner since 2007!
Having so much coffee competition on our doorstep we have to work hard to hold onto our title of 'Coffee Kings of Coffee Corner', as voted by our own very discerning customers...
We use 100% arabica beans, which are ethically sourced from the fields of Honduras. We've invested in top-notch equipment and training to ensure we fulfil our aim of providing the best possible cup of coffee, every time!
You can buy Picnic coffee beans to enjoy at home, either whole or ground. Just ask at the counter.
We also serve a range of Fairtrade teas and hot chocolate as well as juices and smoothies.
