Missing Bean Banbury

missing bean roasts its own coffee. that single fact changes everything about what ends up in your cup, because the distance between roaster and cafe is essentially zero. most shops are buying from someone else's decisions. this one is making its own. on the high street in banbury, at number 70, it sits among the usual mix of chain retailers and doesn't need to announce itself loudly. the regulars already know. if you're passing through oxfordshire and you need a reason to stop in banbury, this is a credible one. not a placeholder coffee, not a compromise. the roastery is the cafe. come for a filter on a slow weekday morning when the street is still waking up.
