Jamies Whitechapel High Street

Coffee tasted great! Waiting for cocktails to make a comeback!

A coffee bar situated in a nice and stylish atrium, with an adjoining open space in the rear. Great coffee, great cocktails, that come with excellent service. Unsurprising as the baristas here are excellent and approachable.

Good coffee in the mornings and danged good cocktails in the evenings. They roast their own and have both talented baristas and bartenders who put a lot of effort in. So kudos to them. Because it's hidden away inside the ground floor of the the White Chapel Building (the one with the big white letters, open to public) it's normally quiet and relaxed. Staff are super friendly and always up for a chat. A wide array of non-dairy milk is carried along with some rich and easily overlooked cakes and snacks. They have an app for advance ordering and a reasonable loyalty scheme. At the moment, they're serving £5 cocktails on Thursdays and Fridays, which is actually incredible value because they're mixed and flavoured really well and not light on the liquor either.

Visited this morning. Ordered a long black, which has to rate in my top 3 of *worst* coffees I've ever had the misfortune to drink. It was so weak and gross that after a couple of sips, I threw it down the sink!

A hidden gem for great coffee in Whitechapel. Nice and quiet and the coffee quality is up there with some of the best I’ve had in London
