Standing Room Only – Piccadilly Arcade

Ahh – here we have some serious joe. Despite the mint green decor and the rockabilly tunes, this coffee bar oozes seriousness. They have a serious Five Senses house blend, a serious seasonal Single Origin, and some serious brew options – regular, filter, syphon and who knows what else. Despite their smiley demeanour, the baristas are serious about their business too. You can tell that by the small celebrity platform on which they perform their duties. No pretensions about consuming on the premises – the seriously large 4 head machine occupies a significant amount of real estate, precluding any chair/table options. The serious pricing structure reflects the serious nature of the experience here too. That said, this is good coffee – Even if it is a bit serious. 79%

  1. You can’t be serious.

    Brilliant review, I’ve always wondered what it was like in there. Everytime I pass it, I get this ominous feeling like it’s way too serious for my tastes.
