Rosslyn Coffee: Specialty Excellence in Historic Leadenhall Market
Nestled within the beautiful Victorian architecture of Leadenhall Market, Rosslyn Coffee brings its award-winning specialty coffee concept to one of London's most historic locations. This is the fifth outpost for the highly acclaimed coffee brand, which has quickly established itself as one of the City's most respected coffee destinations.
A Blend of Australian and Irish Hospitality
Founded in 2018 by Mat Russell and James Hennebry, who hail from Australia and Ireland respectively, Rosslyn Coffee combines the precision and attention to detail of Australian café culture with the warmth and welcoming atmosphere of Irish hospitality. This unique fusion has earned them multiple accolades, including 2nd place for Best Independent Coffee Shop in Europe at the 2019 Allegra Coffee Awards.
Coffee Excellence
Rosslyn takes its coffee seriously, carefully selecting beans that work best with specific brewing methods. Their menu is thoughtfully divided into categories for black coffees, white coffees, and filter options. Visitors consistently praise their flat whites as "smooth yet fragrant" and "definitely one of the better coffees around" in London. For non-coffee drinkers, their hot chocolate receives equally enthusiastic reviews for being "rich and not too milky."
The Leadenhall Market Experience
This particular location benefits from its setting in the historic Leadenhall Market, with its stunning cobbled walkways and Victorian glass roof. The shop features Rosslyn's signature minimalist aesthetic with high-top tables along the windows where customers can stand and enjoy their coffee while taking in the unique surroundings.
Early Risers Welcome
Commuters and City workers appreciate Rosslyn's early opening time of 6:30am on weekdays, making it the perfect spot to start the workday with an exceptional coffee. The shop maintains the same high standards of quality and service even during peak hours, with staff consistently described as "friendly," "helpful," and "incredibly efficient."
Whether you're a coffee connoisseur, a busy professional looking for your morning fix, or a visitor exploring the historic Leadenhall Market, Rosslyn Coffee offers a premium coffee experience that exemplifies the best of London's thriving specialty coffee scene.
