more photos

Panda Cup is a specialty coffee café at 27 Blackfriars Road, Southwark, London SE1 8NY, opened by Kunthea Seng in 2019. Espresso is pulled on a Nuova Simonelli Appia, grinder Eureka EK75. Beans are a Brazilian Carmo de Minas natural roasted small-batch on a 60kg drum by Forest Hill Coffee.

kunthea seng draws pandas in milk foam. that's why the queue at panda cup, on blackfriars road, runs out the door by 8:30. she grew up in cambodia's kandal province on instant coffee with condensed milk, trained behind a bar there, then in london at champ, and opened her own place in 2019. your flat white pulls on a nuova simonelli appia, grinds on a eureka ek75, beans are a brazilian carmo de minas natural roasted small-batch at forest hill. the vegan bubble latte you'll either love or apologise for ordering.
