Coffee Enquiry XLVII: Taylor Street Baristas

I can't take it anymore! She's driving me crazy! I can't sleep, I can't leave the house, and I' here, I'm climbing the walls. Meanwhile, I'm dating a virgin, I'm in this contest, something has got to give!

I went a month ago to a meeting in Mayfair and immediately saw the chance to try Taylor Street Baristas. They won best coffee in Mayfair in 2012 and 2015 so I was really looking forward to it. 8 coffee shops spread around London and now you can get their coffee beans delivered to your door.

The place

I got a nice toasted bacon muffin and a Flat White. Their espresso is Rika Rika from Papau New Guinea, the coffee had complex flavours, strong with deep and long aftertaste, and some chocolate notes.

Coffee Time

Beans: Taylor St

Espresso Machine: La Marzocco

Score: 5/5

Lovely place, quiet and simple decor, good service, and they seem to have some sort of loyalty competition that looks quite nice for their regulars or coffee freaks. They have been migrating to their own roasted coffee from previously using Union beans, and Mayfair has already completed the switch.
