It’s great to see a good independent coffee shop filling the slot vacated by the infamous Pirate Books at 4 York Way. ‘Brewhouse on York’ has been reviewed in complimentary terms by coffee-loving local worker Bexquisite. I had a simple black Americano today which was excellent – I couldn’t remember buying a better coffee in Kings Cross. Why not give it a try and let us know in the comments how it rates compared to other locals. Any comments along the lines of ‘I always like a nice coffee after a sex shop’ won’t be let through.
There doesn’t seem to be a website, but I did turn up this blurb on London Coffee Jobs:
‘The Brewhouse on York is a brand new boutique coffee house and eatery with it’s first site opening opposite London’s Kings Cross station.
We have teamed up with Brighton’s bespoke roastery, Small Batch Coffee Company, who are working with us to develop our own blend of fantastic beans, setting our high standards as far apart as possible from the local chains.
Along side out fabulous coffee will be a fresh food offering that champions great ingredients. Bread and pastries from artisan bakery “The FlourPot”, roast hams, homemade sausage rolls and seasonal patisserie are the order of the day.
With the addition of knowledgeable and passionate staff The Brewhouse on York will be setting the local benchmark one cup of coffee at a time.’
It looks like this shop has gone under as it is never open. Has anybody else noticed this?
