On the Grid : Shoreditch Grind

"We used to walk past the previous iteration of this quirky circular building next to Old Street roundabout and wish it was something a lot more interesting than a wilting mobile phone shop. ‘Sex, coffee and rock n roll’ is the signature of the Shoreditch branch of the Grind family and there’s a lot of character bursting out through the front windows on any day. It probably helps that they have regularly-changing 1950s style cinema signage on the front and cocktails to boot. People aren’t lying when they say they make the best espresso martinis around." - DesignStudio
