Mission Coffee Works

you're on grosvenor way, e5, which isn't the kind of street that gets much foot traffic from tourists or people who just wandered over from somewhere else. hackney wick sits close, clapton too, and this part of london has its own pace, its own logic. mission coffee works operates out of unit 4, a roastery address rather than a high street one, and that detail matters: the coffee is being made here, not just served. regulars in this corner of the city have found it and kept coming back, which is a harder thing to sustain than a good opening week. if you're making the trip out to e5, don't rush. come on a weekday morning, when the street is quieter, and get whatever's on the filter bar.
