Bad Coffee Specialty Coffee Shop Hackney Wick

Bad Coffee is a specialty coffee roastery in Hackney Wick, East London, serving up great-tasting, non-pretentious coffee for everyone. Our beans are roasted 3 days a week and are sourced from smallholder farms worldwide, promoting sustainable agriculture and community projects in origin countries. We're a micro roastery, which means we roast in small batches, and trust our senses to deliver gorgeous coffee for our community. Our coffee roasters are SCA certified for theoir sensory skills so you can be assured you're getting the good stuff.

Our on site espresso bar serves take away coffee 7 days a week and has plenty of outdoor seating. With two espresso options (House and Specials on rotation), two rotating batch brews and cold brew. as well as seasonal specials. Occassionally we'll bring in other roasters too.

We serve proper milk from local Kent farm Northiam Dairy - a used in the UK Barista Championships, it's that damn good. We offer Oat Milk from the (Un)Ordinary, Almond and Coconut Milk from Rude Health, Soy Milk from the Happy Soy Boy. All chosen for their ability to mix with our coffee. We never charge extra for alternative milks.

All our bakes are delivered fresh every morning from Layers Bakery, keeping everything nice and local.

Our flat whites are proper 6oz flat whites and are the exact same size as our sit in cups, we are always happy to size up for no additional cost - so take it easy on the negative google reviews you silly sausages. We're here to help and make you happy, not piss you off.

Our shop is zero to landfill, although we encourage you to bring back your compostable cups and bags for proper waste management. We're more than happy for you to use your keep cup, and encourage you to use ceramics if you are stickign around. We also sell fresh coffee beans and offer a refill service saving on both packaging and pennies.

Due to being a takeaway spot we do not have wi-fi so bring a book, a notepad, your thoughts, a friend, or prepare to get social with one of our baristas haha! We also don't have a working toilet at present although it is something we're aiming to build in the near future.
