Unit 1, Station Forecourt, 15 Highbury Cor, London N5 1RA, United Kingdom
As a coffee enthusiast who's always on the lookout for distinctive café experiences in London, my recent visit to Black Sheep Coffee at Highbury Corner was truly satisfying. Nestled conveniently near the station, this location offers both accessibility and a welcoming atmosphere. But what truly stands out is the Black Sheep Coffee Menu - a bold, modern take on coffee and light bites.
The menu goes beyond your average flat white and cappuccino. Their specialty coffees feature options like Vietnamese iced coffee and Black Hoof cold brew, which showcase their commitment to innovation and quality. I tried their Nitro Cold Brew, which was smooth, creamy, and had an intense, natural flavor without any bitterness - a must-try for any cold coffee fan.
Their beans are 100% specialty-grade Robusta, which is a rarity, and it gives the coffee a unique punch and depth compared to the typical Arabica blends offered elsewhere. For those who prefer alternatives, the matcha and chai lattes are also commendable - well-balanced and not overly sweet.
On the food side, the menu includes delicious Norwegian open sandwiches, pastries, and plant-based options. The avocado toast with chili flakes and lemon zest was fresh and vibrant - a perfect complement to their robust espresso.
Where Black Sheep outshines many competitors is in its ethos and execution: ethically sourced beans, innovative drinks, and a distinctive brand voice that caters to a modern, urban clientele. The staff were knowledgeable and clearly passionate, which elevated the experience.
In conclusion, the Black Sheep Coffee Menu at Highbury Corner is a refreshing detour from generic chains. It’s a prime spot for both coffee connoisseurs and casual sippers looking for something different in North London.
