New River Studios

london's specialty coffee scene keeps expanding outward from zones one and two, and the quality tends to hold up better than you'd expect once you get past the obvious postcode clusters. new river studios sits on eade road in the harringay warehouse district, which is exactly the kind of working neighbourhood that supports a place like this without requiring it to perform for tourists. the regulars here are vocal about it, and that consistency of loyalty means something in a city where options are endless and attention is short. if you're making your way through north london on a weekday morning, eade road is the kind of detour that doesn't feel like one.
