The Old Grocery Espresso Bar — Restaurant in England

The best tasting coffee in Northampton is in the ‘hood.

This is another business I would love to see around the corner from where I live. An eclectic, vibrant coffee shop packed with youthful, happy staff and creative socialites. It is abuzz with locals on a Saturday morning. Take a look around when you get inside, there is so much art work on display, it’s difficult to focus. The owner is definitely a movie buff.

A genuinely lovely coffee shop with good food, just needs a little fine tuning to...

The quirky décor, filled with retro items, added a unique touch to the overall ambiance. As I sipped my coffee, I couldn't help but tap my foot along to the good music playing in the background. The staff were also incredibly friendly and provided excellent service, making my stop even more enjoyable. What's more, this place even had a downstairs area, adding another dimension to its already charming appeal. I can't wait to come back and experience this...
