Notting Hill Coffee Project

Notting Hill Coffee Project sits beside Notting Hill Gate station, an independent specialty coffee shop that describes roasting in house and puts a different coffee grower in the spotlight each month. The room has plenty of greenery, a contemporary Scandinavian look and a long table along the back wall, with a second floor of seating upstairs that closes a little earlier than the ground floor.

The shop donates part of every cup to Centrepoint, the youth homelessness charity, and has built much of its identity around that link. Beans, brewing equipment and merchandise are sold at the counter, there is wifi for people who need to work, and the team keeps a chill playlist on Spotify so you can take the soundtrack home with you.
