Store Street Espresso

Really nice cafe that takes its coffee seriously, offering espresso based and filter drinks. Really nice setting and atmosphere. Some baked good and cakes on offer.

We've been twice. Very helpful and lovely staff, They always make great coffee. The place has a really good atmosphere. We will visit again next time we are in London. 👍

Really nice internal design and atmosphere. Ordered a hot chocolate which is reasonably priced with its portion. Latte art on hot chocolate is amazing, plus it tastes really nice with a slight hint of soy, would definitely recommend

Cute little spot to stop by for a sandwich and a hot beverage. The surroundings are nice with very scandi vibes, and there's lots of natural light at the back of the cafe. Downside: depending on what you go for, their baked goods can be pretty hard. I was told by a staff member that they couldn't heat up the very rough cookie or muffin I ordered, not even slightly. This is the second time I've had sub par baked goods here (as I really wanted to give it a chance) but the blondie and cookie I ordered were verging on stale. Looks better than it tastes.

I ordered a flat white and a matcha and both of them were barely warm. I would prefer if their drinks were slightly hotter since they reached room temperature in almost 6-8 mins. The atmosphere is loud, chatty and they have music playing. Do not recommend for studying but do recommend for catching up with a friend and meeting here. Very hard to find a seat though.

Store Street Espresso is a charming coffee shop offering Square Mile Coffee and an array of delicious treats, including croissants, cakes, toasties, avocado on toast, salads, and filo pastries or sausage rolls. The interiors are contemporary and relaxing, with walls adorned with art, a skylight, and hanging green plants, creating a laid-back atmosphere. Situated near central London universities, it attracts a young intellectual crowd, as well as office workers and local residents. There are also a few tables and chairs on the pavement, perfect for enjoying the sunshine.

Very very good coffee! Great breakfast sandwiches and bakery. Lovely music in the background, art painting on the walls. Great atmosphere, highly recommended

Best cortado I have had in London when I visited! The kimcheese sandwich is definitely a new favourite. Carrot cake was delicious and right taste in your mouth. Incredibly polite and friendly staff. Highly recommended! Great atmosphere Update” Grilled cheese with mustard isn’t good I think the mustard needs to be replaced or removed at all. Pour over coffee need some improvement

Excellent espresso coffee, friendly baristas, fast table service. Good selection of sweet and savory bites and even salads. Pity they don't take cash. A few tables and chairs outside and more inside.

Delicious coffee and good ambiance inside with a good amount of seating indoors. Love that the alternative milks are free!

My mandatory stop whenever I am in London. Great coffee and food, and great to work. The baristas are always very friendly and each location is gorgeous. Can't wait until I am in town again!

One of the best places, that combines both good coffee and good atmosphere to read/work, I've found so far in London. Will come back again.

Great coffee, friendly and knowledgeable baristas. Gets busy often, but pleasant to sit inside or outside.

Okay coffee but delicious pastries !! Cute and calm spot as well with many tables indoors and some outdoors seats as well :)

I was cleaning out an old suitcase and came across a business card from a trip to London a few years ago. This is my best friends favorite coffee shop, and when I visited him, he insisted we stop here. When I found the business card, it made me so happy, as I think so warmly of this lovely spot. We stopped in for a drink several times during my trip in London. The user uploaded photos here just do not do it justice. When I think of the quintessential London coffee shop, they always come to mind. I love the clean lines, modern vibes and sweeping natural daylight that floods inside. If I remember correctly, when I visited, they even have outdoor seating. I'm a tea drinker, but my best friend ordered the espresso, his usual, as I enjoyed a tea and a croissant. We sat here several days in a row and just read the paper. I recall friendly staff and a great atmosphere. I hope we make it back here again some day!

This place is GASSSS! I suggest the eggs with maple bacon on sourdough toast. You have to add cheese to it of course! Great music and atmosphere too!

This is a really cool and chic Barista coffee house in central London, really near UCL and Euston station. The coffee here is high quality, good tasting and strong that would please any coffee veteran, but probably would not appeal to those who prefer large Starbucks style coffees. However, for a short quality brew or a strong Espresso, Store Street is great. Also, they do matcha tea and matcha lattes as well as a variety of desserts and some light lunch options. The atmosphere is pretty chill, a tad hippy with many students on Macbooks. Grey interior, small enough inside but still a decent number of seats. There is a loyalty card and prices are average. The downside is that it gets crowded during university times, and WiFi is via BT where you either need to be a BT customer to use free or pay. The cafe didn't seem to have their own free wifi though.

A quaint cafe near my old uni UCL that makes me wonder why didn't we have such nice cafes near school back then! It's quite crowded during rush hours but if you get a seat, it's a lovely cafe to sit down and read under the natural daylight. For my visit today, I ordered a Cappuccino £2.80 and Matcha White Chocolate Cookie £2.40. The Cappuccino was very nice (people come here for the coffee) and the Cookie was a tad too crumbly but still delicious. -- voodie rating: 8/10

I used to frequent this place like it was going to close. It was a great place to for good coffee and goat cheese sammies. Not to far from campus, it was great place to duck in and drink some coffee until it was respectable enough an hour to go over to the pub across the street. And with all the rain we had in London that year, you would find me many times at the corner table hunched over a table with a flat white from my favourite Australian. Sadly, they got so popular it was hard to find a spot just on a whim after a while. Sadly for me, not for the guys that is. I also followed them on twitter, so it was good to know what fun things were being sold for the day as well. Miss it a lot.

Like others have said, Store Street serves coffee for people who like coffee - it can be bitter and/or strong for those uninitiated into the coffee club. Pros: - outdoor seating - friendly service - quiet street near UCL, British Library, etc Cons: - wifi is off from 11am-4pm (allegedly, didn't witness this myself) - up charge for non-diary milks (boo!) Overall, a nice spot to recharge.

Thanks to Sharon for sharing Store Street Espresso, one of her favourite haunts when she was studying round the corner It's located on Store Street, an interesting little street tucked just off Tottenham Court Road. There are various little delis and restaurants on this little street Store Street Espresso has a studenty feel to it with so many university buildings nearby - it's laptop city inside. They gravitate her for good coffee, I was told and though I'm nowhere near being a coffee aficionado, my iced coffee was packed with flavour Being the visitor, I let Sharon choose our toasted sandwiches and she came back with 2 lovely combinations - cheese and ham.pastrami and cheese with sundried tomatoes. We ended with a heavenly chocolate brownie An oasis of calm worth the detour from Tottenham Court Road

This little white-washed espresso house is a welcome addition to the Bloomsbury area, previously bereft of a properly good local coffee shop. I stopped in for a piccolo. Greeted politely though not enthusiastically, I took a seat to wait for my coffee. A barista delivered it to me. I sat next to some books on a shelf, 4 of which were The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (kind of weird). Took a poetry volume off and leafed through it while I enjoyed my competently prepared coffee beverage. But it didn't blow me away. And, ultimately, neither did Store Street Espresso. Everything was just a bit too vanilla*. ___________________________________ *white.

Stopped here with my momma for a quick coffee break. She asked me where the best coffee was in London and I immediately thought of Store Street. I'm still in love with their craft, the space, and the location of the cafe. We managed to find a seat inside and had a lovely time relaxing with our drinks. This time I tried something new, their matcha latte with a matcha cookie. WOW do I wish I had known about this last year. Impeccable technique both in elevating the matcha flavour and the milk was frothed perfectly. I'm very picky with this as I find some places don't do the flavour justice but this is not one of them. The matcha cookie was good too, although very dense in the centre and more crumbly than anticipated. But together they were a perfect pairing. Matcha overload! I recommended this coffee shop before and I will do so again. They simply amazing and not to be missed!

I'm very fond of Store Street Espresso. It's a combination of great coffee, delicious sandwiches, wi-fi, the skylight which is so effective when there's sun out, and, my favourite part, the bookshelf which means that I can just chill out and grab a book when I've forgotten to bring one out with me. Yes, I'm way too used to having something to occupy me, if I'm not able to sit down and just chill without anything to do, but that's beside the point. I've been asked what the 'chemistry lab' photo I uploaded means. Well, not so long ago, when it was sweltering hot, Store Street had some cold brew coffee, which I think is coffee brewed with iced water, and not the usual boiling hot water you get. In fact, it was so hot that day that the shop bought out all of the ice from surrounding supermarkets.

Store Street Espresso is one of many good cafes in this neighborhood. It may not be top of my list but as it has a nice layout and design, plenty of seating, free wifi (although there is a sign that there is no wifi between 11-16, was however on and working fine past two times i was there during that time) and good coffee so it is a definite option for a good cup of coffee. They mainly use Square Mile Coffee which is normally a good sign of quality. The place does have a hipster vibe but it does not really bother me as long as the coffee is good and the service is fast and friendly and Store Street ticks those boxes. I have had very good hand brewed coffees here and the flat white has been good as well. They also serve some basic cafe food. The main drawbacks is that the place has been freezing cold when I have been here during winter time. It is however otherwise a good place for coffee.

I was here for an "After Hours" pop-up desserts visit and had an excellent time. The place is lit well. Dim, but just enough brightness for excellent contrast instagram photos :) The desserts themselves were sublime. Small, but constructed with strange and wonderful ingredients you don't come across everyday. Honeycomb, chocolate ganache espresso, freeze dried rhubarb, blackberry parfait. Amazing. The staff were friendly and despite needing a special reservation, the place wasn't empty the whole night. The coffee here (unsure of whether from pop-up or venue itself) is excellent. The only downside of the visit is that now I wish every coffee in the world included a giant lump of chocolate Ganache and Almond Biscotti :)

Visited twice here now mainly to study and then meet up with friends for study sessions later. Filter coffee was very good but a bit small so recommend going for the big one. It's small but I was able to score a nice booth after waiting awhile and noise level is not too bad. Cons are the wireless is horrendous and eventually my study group had to leave and go to uni as we couldn't work there. Also no outlets so I don't recommend for a long stay if you plan to work but for just a normal coffee break its very cute and cosy.

I really wanted to like this place, it comes with a trendy layout and furnishings, decent prices and good looking staff ready to talk about the menu and help you decide. Unfortunately the square mile coffee was over roasted and it didn't satisfy. Maybe next time. I'd still prefer it over Starbucks but it won't be my regular coffee spot.

Every day I wish I worked closer to a good coffee shop like Store Street Espresso. Then again, it's probably better for my wallet that I don't since I'd definitely be popping by every day for some variety of espresso. We wanted to try this place so much that we ventured out on a freezing, wet, winter's day. I'm not sure whether it's quieter on the weekends or whether the rain just kept everyone else snug inside their homes/blankets, but it wasn't too crowded when we wandered in on a late Saturday afternoon. I imagine that during peak coffee hour, fewer seats would be available, so it worked out quite well for us. My flat white was incredibly smooth with a soft kick of espresso. I've had my fair share of coffee in London and this coffee was easily among the top five I've tasted. The carrot cake we ordered was also a tasty little treat and had a generous portion of walnuts that worked really well with the cake. I'd really love to come back to repeat the experience. From what I've heard from friends, it seems like the coffee here is consistently good, so there's probably nothing to worry about!

When I'm in London for work this is on my "commute" to the office. I always love stopping here for a coffee and pastry. Small cups of REALLY GOOD Cappuccino. Not a milky mess. And lovely large soft pain au raisins. If you do linger, the rear space is wonderfully light w skylights flooding in natural light. Just the right amount of hipster for me...

I went to this spot in hopes to grab a bite of lunch and get a bit of studying done. The place was packed so I had to sit at the communal table by the window and it was way too low to do any work comfortably. (+) Free WIFI. Pastrami sandwich to die for. Huge window for maximal brightness. Panini maker. (-) Very small food selection. Slow WIFI. Crowded. Uncomfortable. Although the sandwich was extremely delicious and flavorful, I would not say that this place is anything special. Don't go out of your way to visit here, but feel free to try it for yourself!

Just walked in here to grab a cup of latte. Nice cosy little coffee shop with a variety of sandwiches and sweet cookies. Pretty spacious inside, has outdoor seating. Has a lot of light coming in, so it isn't too gloomy. I like it here! Going to be my new hangout spot. Great place to have group discussions.

After a year+ of eyeing Store Street Espresso with jealousy and sadness on my way to the Senate House Library, I finally treated myself to a beverage and a snack here. Though I will never have to return to said library ever again (can I get a 'WOOOO!'?), I will go out of my way to come back to Store Street Espresso! The shop itself is uber chic, with an outside area that's usually packed with super cool-looking people smoking a cigarette and drinking their lattes from dainty glass tumblers. When inside, you're greeted by a gorgeous looking display case of freshly prepared sandwiches, quiches, and pastries, and a clean space with lots of seating. With Bon Iver playing softly on the stereo overhead (followed by a rather enthusiastic, slightly stranger Mexican folk music situation afterward...), I was ready to caffeinate and get some serious work done. I ordered an iced flat white and a slice of avocado toast (as I said, I'm treating myself today). While it was a pretty penny, coming to about £7 for the two items, you're really paying for the quality here. The iced flat white (btw, side note -- more London coffee shops need to jump on this 'iced' drink bandwagon) was smooth, rich, and balanced. Not bitter in the slightest! And since you can't really go wrong with any variation of the sourdough toast and avocado combo, my snack went down a treat, as well. What really separates Store Street Espresso from its (*cough* East London) competitors is the friendliness of the (Hipster! There are nice hipsters!) staff. They're helpful, patient, and really welcoming. They say hello when you get in, and goodbye when you leave. (While I guess this isn't really that big of a deal, and really quite normal by general standards of social interaction, I've been conditioned by the aloof baristas of Old Street).They also don't try and take away your drink the second you've finished it, or glare at you angrily when you've been sitting there for a few hours on your laptop. Quality stuff! This place is great. Tip 1: Card charges under £4 get a £0.10 fee tacked onto them Tip 2: Wifi is normally free and unlimited (none of that by-the-hour nonsense), but is switched off between 12-3 during the lunch rush. Be prepared to tether or scram!

It cannot be denied, one has to shell out for good coffee in London but at least it exists... HERE amongst other places. From the street this coffeehouse looks like a design store with it's contemporary and minimalist furniture and general fashionable clientele present in the window seating. Nice range of pastries, cakes and snacks, though also; not-so-cheap. I must praise the teas as well at the coffee which come thoughtfully served in individual filters, which begins to explain their (also) high price.

Excellent coffee - square mile beans, and well made. Service pleasant, and ideally located for a break from revision when you're working in Senate House Library. Prices reasonable - a long black is £2 which is admittedly a little more than you'd pay in Starbucks or Costa, but it's more than a little bit better!

Good coffee and it isn't in east London? Whenever I need a place to meet someone for a coffee near the BL, Senate House, Warburg, UCL... well, Bloomsbury in general, this is my go-to spot. Well located between Warren Street, Goodge Street, Tottenham Court Road, and Russell Square, it is a small cafe with friendly staff, cozy/minimalist decor, and really good coffee. Plus, they don't mind if you linger/study, they have free wifi, and they are definitely not Starbucks. If you are picky about coffee and want a centrally located, down to earth yet upscale cafe: this is your spot. I think my latte cost £2, which is on par with most places of this type in London.

Really nice space they've got going on here - I have to say that as much as I like places like Monmouth and Foxcroft & Ginger, I find them to be a little on the cosy [/estateagentspeak] side. SSE is far more roomy in that regard which is nice, especially if you're going to be living there. As for the coffee, well, it's a bit on the pricey side - definitely one for those who drink coffee out of pleasure rather than out of necessity. I didn't catch the prices for the espresso-based drinks, but the aeropress brews are £3 and V60 drip coffees are £4. I went for the aeropress and, well, it really didn't disappoint - very smooth, light on the acidity and finishing with a distinct chocolatey-ness. Yums. My coffeemate (not that coffee mate) was impressed with their caffe latte too. Buono. Although it's a bit out of my way, I will definitely be dropping in again in the future if I need to do a couple of hours of reading, especially as it's much less manic than, say, Monmouth. Pricey, yes, but definitely one of the top brews in town.

Ah Store Street, you kill me sometimes. I love you, but I don't enjoy loving you. This is a review for coffee lovers, so if you are a general coffee fan, add on a star to the review. + The coffee: they vary the filter and the V60 (or Aeropress, more later) beans regularly (currently using 'Drop' coffee beans, an amazing Swedish roasters), whereas they stock and use Square Mile or Alchemy as their day-to-day beans for espresso/latte/etc. In that, they have good selections, and there is always something new to try, and generally the coffee is great. But frankly, I'm not all that blown away*. I can't lie and say it isn't probably the best in the TCR/Bloomsbury area, but Tapped isn't far behind and its a nicer store. - But Store Street, for all its good coffee (£2-4) and its variety of in-stock beans (£10+), its to-buy Aeropresses (£25) and grinders (£30); is just overpriced. It shouldn't cost £4 for a V60. £3 or £3.50 maybe. I'm sure arguments can be made for it, but no. And this goes double for their current replacement for the V60 menu option, the Aeropress, as they are practicing for the Aeropress Barista Championships. I'm an Aeropress user for over 2 years- I'm not a Championship winner, but I know my Aeropress isn't worth £4 a cup. Its never cost me £4 a cup anywhere else in the world. Sure, it might be the quality of bean they are using, but the beans regularly change but the price doesn't. Also, not sure why I'm paying premium for practicing entrants... - The latte art isn't up to scratch anymore, and maybe its due to staff turnover and being moved to Tavistock Place, but it seems half-arsed. - The wifi is disasterous. Really not a place to met a work/business colleague to do some work. Other rewiews will back this up. Maybe this seems overly harsh, I hear you, I'm saying this as a regular customer (mans got a loyalty card innit). But you set yourself up as a premium coffee store, and its only fair to judge against the rest of the premium stores in London. + On the plus, they do decent cold brew and iced coffees in the summer-time! Much better than the Starbucks muck. + The physical store: good seating among, quite comfortable, and has a nice long outside bench for good weather. Its always busy though, until about 3.30pm in the afternoon. The food: I have to say I have't tried it. Again, maybe its the price tag, but I've not heard anyone who has eaten from there (with me) rave about it. Could be great; perhaps it needs to source some fresh pastries from a nearby bakery or something. + The verdict: Look its the best in the surrounding UCL/Bloomsbury area, and for the sake of a few extra pence you'll get better coffee than the Costa/Starbucks muck. That said, as a coffee addict you're possibly only going to see this as a decent but not mindblowing premium coffee store, and you wonder if the price really is worth it. Highly unlikely you'll buy any of the beans, considering the better deals in London and even online from the same suppliers. Tough one! * I warred over giving this 4 stars for the simple reason that the Aeropress they are currently doing did blow me away, but its down to the bean they are using. If they did the option regularly (which actually gives a bigger portion too) and the Aeropress was consistently that good, its a 4 star review.

Oh Store Street, how I did long for you from San Francisco. Beautiful architecture and art, attentive waitstaff, delicious treats, beautiful coffee. If you're looking for a relaxing afternoon in a proper cafe, look no further than Store Street Espresso.

Well made square mile winter espresso, great brownie as well especially when made without wallnuts & raisins -even by accident :) (be prepared for rude service though)

Oh, Store Street - you fancy, hunh? I used to hustle down this street en route to the Library - it was used as a way to get from A to B, not as a destination itself. Now, though? Charming like whoa. And Store St. Espresso is partially to credit for this nice strip tucked away just off Tottenham Crt. Road. Here's what I love about Store Street Espresso: the space. It's so bright, thanks to a skylight. It actually reminds me a lot of the Scandinavian coffee spots I hung out in this past summer: bright, white, natural elements, attractive attentive barristas, nice font (fully recognize this last point might not seal the deal for many). Long wooden tables for working. Beautiful little details, like cards for sale by local artists (3 for 5, I think). Want some toast? Oh, hey, there are more than your standard options for toppings like Marmite and several jars of PB. Coffee is from Square Mile. And remember to get your card stamped - loyalty perks, gang! [tentatively stated bonus point: I think there might even be student discounts? But don't quote me on this]. Otherwise, though, I'll say that I'm willing to pay a premium for good coffee, but these are micro-teeny flat whites for the price. Yelp note: depending on time of day/week it can feel pretty Uni student-dominated due to its proximity to UCL/SOAS/etc. Which is no problem, really, other than making me _feel old_.

Great granola, great coffee, lovely and ample indoor seating (with lots of sunlight...when there is sun!). If you order the granola with yogurt it's a meal by itself. Also, they have muesli just it's not listed anywhere that I could see. The coffee is good as well and there's a decent selection of pastries - croissants, almond croissant, chocolate croissant, match cookies, etc.

I popped in here for a coffee after visiting the flower shop down the road. It looks a bit minimalist with a few cakes and slices on display, art gallery style. But what you really come here for is the coffee. I asked for my default choice: a flat white. The quality of the London flat white varies wherever you go, so ordering one can indicate how good the cafe may be. After a short wait, I was handed my flat white in a cup without a lid. But this is a good move for me as I'm now free to add sugar without the risk of spilling precious coffee whilst removing the lid. As it happened, I didn't need the lid anyway. I sipped the coffee while walking towards Holborn to catch the tube. The drink was well crafted. It had enjoyable flavours and it gave me the wake-up nudge I was looking for. If It were my local, I would go there again. And again.

I stopped in for a quick coffee on my way back to work. The cappuccino was a bit, well, bitter and burnt tasting, so it was unpleasant for me to drink. The decor is well, basic. As if someone couldn't really be bothered to do anything inventive or interesting with the spot. The service is friendly and the desserts and sandwiches looked nice, but given the poor coffee, it's unlikely I'll be back.

Matcha Latte. Delicious! This is a super cute spot, and it's a great spot to get some coffee before going to the National Gallery which is only a few minutes walk from here.

Fantastic coffee in a lovely street . I popped in by chance and I enjoyed a great coffee and a delicious salade . They do have benches outside . I am not luving in this area but I will be back !

Hmm, I haven't reviewed this place despite having gone there twice last week. It's very similar to most of the of the other fancy coffee places cropping up everywhere, right down to the obligatory fixie bicycle chained up outside, but it has a bit more space than most of the others. I'd give it 5 stars but I don't think they've made the best use of the available space and there's a weird problem with the roof where condensation builds up and then starts dripping on you from above.

Solid espresso. Cute place. Cake was a tad dry, but otherwise all good. Nice place to hit first thing in the morning.

I was just walking around and then came across this coffee shop. It's really a nice, minimalistic and light place. I will definitely go there again. As there is a lot of natural light due to the windows in the ceiling, it's a perfect place to read something while having a good coffee.

A very nice space, but in true hipster fashion 'All show and no go'. Very disappointing,tepid flat white and despite it being more staff than customers it took ages. I'm not sure I'd take them up on their offer of brewing classes

Big fan of this place. They serve great coffee (Red Brick) and also have some tasty food options: sandwiches, quiches and salads. Coffee is reasonably priced. Long Black is £2.20. It's a bit out of the way which means that you always have a good chance to get a seat. This combined with the relaxed atmosphere makes it a perfect place to get some work done or while away some time with a book. Outdoor table is also a great sun trap on a Summer afternoon.

I had an a latte and a toast with avocado. Lots of avocado. And seeds, it also had seeds. It was tasty and it was a nice place to sit and hang for a while

I had very high expectations of this place, after reading Londonist's review. This is a nice little unassuming cafe which is slightly hidden away, but having said that, it still managed to be rather busy when I went there! The staff were speedy and efficient, but still managed to appear laidback. Very impressive. Despite the fact that it was busy, I found a seat no problem - it's the kind of place where it wouldn't be strange to ask to sit on someone else's table if they were alone. It's very minimalistic in decor, and the better for it. The Flat White I had was absolutely lovely, with very caramel-like tones to it, and I think cheaper than all of The Big Coffee Chains. The staff were very much on top of cleaning the tables when I was in there, but didn't at all make me feel rushed. All in all it's a brilliant little place - go!

One of the best coffee shops in London. The service is really great; nicest (and cutest) baristas ever. The soy latte can't be beat. Food is also really good, but do try to get it earlier in the day or they will run out. If they have the goat cheese sandwich do yourself a favor and get it. The shop itself is really cool and unique. Unfortunately the wifi isn't usually on/working, but it's a great place to do offline work!

This coffee shop is an absolute gem. The coffee is always delicious, the milk perfectly steamed, latte art on fleek in every cup, the vibe is incredible, and the minimalist furniture creates an aesthetic that makes it easy to focus on work or a conversation with another person. The baristas are kind (when they're not totally slammed with drinks) and they have a loyalty card that rewards you with free coffee after a few drinks! 10/10 would recommend this place for anyone who's looking for a new favorite.

Totally love this place, the staff are super cool and just the type of people you would love to have as your best friends! The coffee and cakes are awesome and don't leave without having some avocado on sourdough toast.

Great coffee, incredible creative space--but warning! Wifi is unavailable from 11am-4pm (at least it was yesterday, Friday) which was terribly inconvenient for a student who expected to get some work done with their coffee. Hopefully others have better luck! Plus the music playing is super groovy
