UPDATE: These events have been canceled.ย
The 2017 London Coffee Festival is just around the corner, and like with previous iterations, this yearโs extravaganza will show off not only the beauty of coffee as a standalone product but as a versatile component that is part of a larger creation, be it food or drink. And the fun arenโt confined to just the Old Truman Brewery in Shoreditch where the festivities are being held. Just a hop, skip, and a jump away at the Square Mile roastery in Hackney, three different pop-ups will be going on that continue the theme of coffee as a component.
Taking place April 6-9th, the different pop-ups will occur at different times of the day and revolve around the three most important meals of the day: breakfast, lunch, and cocktails.
For breakfast, Square Mile will be collaborating with Douglas McMaster of zero-waste restaurant Silo to serve โthe future of breakfast,โ which will focus on sustainability and the โmicrobial elements of cuisine.โ Square Mile will pair this with their take on โthe future of coffee.โ
Lunch will be a four-course affair exploring โterroir beyond the confines of soilโ with Chef Tim Spedding and Francis and Bronwen Percival. Taking place in the upstairs portion of the roastery, Chef Spedding will be designing the first three courses of the meal that will be complemented by a terroir-focused cheese course from the Percivals, โthe UKโs foremost raw milk cheese experts.โ
And finally, as a way of winding down from the excitement of London Coffee Festival, Square Mile has created a โtasting flight of innovative, coffee inspired cocktailsโ at their very chill pop-up bar.
Pricesย for the pop-ups range in from fromย ยฃ10 for breakfast to ยฃ40 for lunch. For more information or to purchase your tickets, visit Square Mile’s website.
