about notes coffee roasters

london takes its specialty coffee seriously, and the roasters doing the most interesting work aren't always the ones with the prime shopfront locations. notes coffee roasters operates out of unit 2 on lanrick road in blackwall, e14, which puts it well east of the usual soho and shoreditch circuit. that distance from the obvious areas is a choice, and it shapes what the place is. you're making a deliberate trip here, not stumbling in between meetings. blackwall isn't a neighborhood that performs for visitors, and notes doesn't seem to need it to. the standing this roaster has built speaks through consistency rather than convenience. if you're heading out that way, go in the morning, when the roastery side of the operation is most likely to be in full swing.
