Ah, coffee. Most of us can’t go a day without getting our daily dose of caffeine, and whether your go to order is a frappuccino, oat milk latte, or the classic black americano; Bedminster is full of great places to get that caffeine fix.
With each one offering something different and unique, let’s take a tour of Bedminster’s coffee scene and maybe find our new favourite drink… just not all on the same day!
EAST STREET & BEDMINSTER PARADE
Krakus.
If you’re really after something different to switch up your morning coffee routine, then why not head on down to Krakus on Bedminster Parade. This Polish Deli is jam-packed full of amazing snacks and treats, so you may just be popping in for a quick coffee, but you might just come up with your weekly shop.
Grounded.
This just might be the perfect place to visit with the family! Grounded Cafe loves to have families come and visit them, and they even have toys, games, and colouring books to keep your little ones occupied while you relax and sip on your morning latte in comfort.
City Farm Cafe.
Who doesn’t like to pet some farm animals after drinking a flat white? This may not be the one for your coffee on the go, but certainly one to take the family and friends for a well-deserved day out! After an afternoon of exploring the gardens and meeting the animals, set yourself up on a picnic table and recharge your batteries.

The Toast Room.
Toast is just as much a morning necessity as coffee, and that’s exactly what you’re gonna get here! Avocado on toast, sourdough toasties or some breakfast hash, they’ve got it all. From breakfast to brunch, The Toast Room is the perfect place to start your day.

Eddies Coffee Lounge.
If you don’t know Eddie’s Coffee Lounge, then where have you been? There’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly ground coffee to wake you up in the morning, and that’s exactly what you’ll get. Each day, Eddie roasts and grinds his coffee in the back of his shop and my gosh it smells divine!
Sunshine Cafe.
No faff, no fluff. Just good classic coffee served with a smile. This East Street institution has been serving the locals of Bedminster their daily coffee and fry ups for so many years, we can’t imagine the high street without it!
George’s Cafe.
Another of East Street’s longest serving breakfast spots, and for such great value. We’re talking about your classic breakfast menus and good strong teas and coffees to go with it.
Hippie Flower Cafe.
Cafe by day, restaurant by night! The Hippie Flower Cafe is beautifully decorated with plants and has an incredible menu that will see you starting the day with your morning Americano and ending your evening with a silky latte.
VX Vegan Cafe.
For any peanut butter lovers out there, VX is for you! The vegan junk food cafe is not only the place to get a mac and cheese burrito or a Vego Monster shake, but it’s also home to the peanut butter latte! And there’s no need to ask because everything is 100% vegan.

WEST STREET
The Fix.
Get your daily fix… at The Fix! Their goal is to actually provide customers with their daily fix of coffee and put a smile on their face. This wonderful little cafe is part of Trained by BV on West Street, and so they’re not only serving up coffees, but they’re whizzing up some post work-out shakes and some tasty treats in the kitchen.

Mezzaluna.
An authentic Italian restaurant, bar and cafe right here on West Street, you should make this your place to grab some dessert and coffee while you catch up with some friends. We highly recommend the tiramisu… it’s delicious!
NORTH STREET
Sweven.
These guys really know their stuff. From filter to espresso, you will be able to discover new flavours, blends, and origins with a regularly updated coffee menu that will definitely keep you coming back for more. Sweven is cool, calm and has a counter full of amazing cakes for you to sit back, relax and truly enjoy your coffee experience.

Albatross Cafe.
A beautiful independent cafe, Albatross is serving up locally roasted coffee alongside locally baked cakes and a delicious seasonal menu. With pink and blue neon lights and so many indoor plants, it’s definitely a hot spot for an Instagram moment!

Hennessey’s Coffee Shop.
The place to get your coffee in the most colourful crockery! One of Bedminster’s oldest coffee shops, Hennessey’s is a true staple to North Street’s coffee scene. Always a delicous cake to be had as well as some incredible fresh baguettes.
Flip.
Coming through for all your vegan needs. When all you want is a croissant and a coffee in the morning, Flip has got you covered. We challenge you to not come out with a full bag full of goodies after sipping on your morning Americano.

The Lounge.
One of Bedminster’s top destination spots for meeting with friends and grabbing some lunch. What we love about The Lounge is the coziness of its interiors and the amazing outdoor seating that it has - making it one of our go-to coffee spots on a beautiful summer’s day.
Tincan.
Did you know that Tincan have their own locally roasted and seasonal espresso blends? It’s good for both your morning commute to work or for grabbing a coffee with friends. And did we mention their incredible food menu? Sourdough toasties and bao buns? Yes please.

Savana Coffee.
What we’ve got here is the perfect spot for people-watching. There’s really no better place to perch with your afternoon latte than at Savana’s. On a sunny day, you need to head on down and watch the hustle and bustle of North Street pass you by.
Mark’s Bread.
The award-winning Mark’s Bread, which is now under new ownership, is definitely the place to be if you like to have your morning brew with a huge toastie or sandwich. We cannot even begin to describe how good this place is. What’s really great about this place is that you can take home old coffee grounds to use for compost! Sustainability at its finest!
