welcome

Kaffeine is an independent, Australian/New Zealand owned café located at 66 Great Titchfield Street in Fitzrovia, just north of Oxford Street.

When we arrived in London four years ago, we wandered the streets in search of somewhere with brilliant coffee and light, fresh food in a space that has a chilled atmosphere, a groovy, funky music policy and service standards that are based on genuine hospitality.

Inspired by over 20 years in the industry, combined with our love of quality food and beverages, discovering local food markets, talking to street vendors and searching out speciality food suppliers, we knew there was a need in London for something fresh, exciting and loving. Kaffeine has been born.

We love the way the food industry has developed in London over the past ten years, and have absolute respect for the scores of small independent operators who are making a name for themselves in food and drink and we will be supporting them as much as possible. We invite you to support us too.

Welcome to Kaffeine. Discover it for yourself.

 

 
     
           
           

our coffee philosophy

At Kaffeine we have taken a lot of time and effort to perfect our coffee in order to provide you with the perfect cup, each and every time. Below are the standards that we work to. If you ever feel that your coffee does not meet these standards, please do tell us.

Espresso Machine
We use the Synesso Cyncra espresso machine. Known as the holy grail of espresso machines, it is designed by former La Marzocco engineer Mark Barnett. The Synesso raises the bar on espresso machine design by an order of magnitude not known before. Please ask us about it.

Grinder
Our choice for the all important espresso blend is the Robur E 110v doserless grinder. This is electronic dosing and grinding at its absolute best. It features a 900 watt motor with 71 mm conical burrs running at 500 rpm, dosing 22 grams in 3 seconds. It also has an integrated cooling fan and an electronic digital timer with programmable display, all at the touch of a button. Perfection.

Beans
Square Mile coffee is owned by the 2007 world barista champion, James Hoffman and the 2007 world cupping champion, Anette Moldvaer. They have a reputation for being one of the best coffee roasting companies in the world.

Cup Sizes
We have specifically chosen these cup sizes to reflect and respect the true flavours of the coffee. All our coffees are served as a double shot as a standard; that is approximately 50mls of espresso in each drink.

· Flat whites and Long Blacks are served in a 5 oz cup
· Cafe Latte are served in 7.7 oz glass
· Cappuccino, Americanos and Hot Chocolates are served in an 6 oz cup

Take away drinks are all served in the same above volumes but in an 8 oz cup

Baristas
Our Baristas have at least three continuous years experience behind a professional espresso machine. They are continuously in pursuit of perfecting the art of espresso making.

Milk
We only ever use absolutely fresh, organic milk. We are using Bonsoy milk for soy drinkers.

Cleanliness
Our machines, grinders and the surrounding work areas are always kept impeccably clean.

Taste
We drink and check the taste of our coffee ourselves. All the time.

Questions
If you have any questions or queries on how we make our coffee, or if you wish to watch while we do so and we are not too busy, we are more than happy to spend time with you, just ask.
We look forward to seeing you.
