Cafélato

good coffee in colchester isn't always where you'd expect it. barrack street isn't a tourist corridor, which probably suits cafélato just fine. the locals who've made it a regular stop tend to keep their finds close, and the fact that this place has built real loyalty on a quiet stretch of co1 says more than most marketing would. you don't stumble onto a spot like this by accident and then forget about it. specialty coffee in a smaller city lives or dies on whether people actually come back, and at 32 barrack street, they do. if you're in the area mid-morning, the flat white is a reasonable place to start.
