Known forspecialty coffeeClerkenwellindependentinstitution

Founded by World Barista Championship winner Gwilym Davies, Prufrock is a cornerstone of London's specialty coffee scene and a training ground for many of the city's best baristas. The large, light-filled space on Leather Lane is relaxed and welcoming, with excellent espresso and filter options alongside a small food menu. It's a great place to have a genuine conversation about coffee if you're curious. Can be quiet mid-afternoon, making it ideal for working or reading.
