9 Quay Mews · Bristol · Coffee & Wine
We pour
two ways.
Specialty pourovers from half past seven. Low-intervention natural wine by candlelight, Friday and Saturday nights. Scroll, and watch the room change with the hour.
Coffee
One address.
Two programmes.
One Bristol harbourside room that lives two lives. Pourovers from the first grind; the V60 and the Kalita, an 18g-in, 36g-out pull. Slow, low, considered.

Coffees
The Cup List
Yirgacheffe Konga
Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia · Washed
Bright, clean, properly floral — the cup most people order on a second visit. We rotate the lot every twelve weeks.
Kochere Anaerobic
Kochere, Ethiopia · Anaerobic natural
Funky. Bring a friend who claims they don't like coffee — this one will surprise them.
Hartmann Geisha
Boquete, Panama · Honey
Our occasional showpiece. Limited to twelve cups a day. Brewed exclusively as a slow pourover.
House Espresso · Verdant Blend
Colombia + Ethiopia · Washed blend
The flat-white pull, dialed for milk. Heavy body, a long fruit finish that holds up to oat.
Single-source Matcha
Uji, Japan · First flush · stone milled
Vibrant, low astringency, very small batches. Whisked with a chasen, never pre-blended.
Wines
The Bottle List
Frappato
Frappato · Sicily, Italy · 2023
Naturally-fermented, low sulphur. Light enough for a hot evening, with proper structure on the second sip.
Pét-Nat Rosé
Pinot Noir · Gamay · Loire Valley, France · 2024
Frothy, cloudy, alive. We open three bottles every Friday at 18:00; when they're gone they're gone.
Skin-contact Pinot Gris
Pinot Gris · Friuli, Italy · 2021
Macerated 16 days on its skins. Amber, savoury, properly cult. The slow last-pour of the night.
Etna Rosso
Nerello Mascalese · Sicily, Italy · 2022
Etna's signature: thin-skinned, mineral, faintly smoky. A wine to drink slowly with the room going dark.
