Quick info
About Grind
Grind is a coffee shop on Market Street inside Spitalfields Market, at the Commercial St entrance next to American Vintage. It runs on a walk-in basis with no reservations. The counter covers the standard espresso range alongside a matcha selection that spans oat milk matcha, matcha with condensed milk, vanilla syrup matcha, and strawberry cloud matcha. An oat flat white and iced options, including iced americano and iced decaf, round out the cold drinks. The cappuccino is a frequent order among regulars. The menu also rotates in seasonal additions, such as a pistachio drink and a summer drink, alongside the standing lineup. Given its position at a market entrance, the shop can see busy periods at certain hours.

Customer Review Summary
Coffee draws the most praise, led by a cappuccino that reviewers call rich and smooth with well textured foam, and an oat flat white described as velvety smooth with gorgeous latte art. An iced decaf and a cold coffee on a hot morning also earn praise, and a new summer drink hit the spot during a heatwave. Matcha is more divided. One reviewer compared a matcha with condensed milk to birthday cake, while another found that the vanilla syrup in an oat milk matcha masked the matcha flavour. The sharpest complaints are a new pistachio drink with so much cream and milk that no coffee could be tasted, an iced americano so weak it seemed like flavoured water, and a strawberry cloud matcha that arrived watered down with no cloud when one particular server was working. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and quick, even when busy, and a few reviewers note a team member patiently explaining the new menu drinks.

“The new pistachio drink was unfortunately disgusting. Absolute overdose of cream & milk, so no coffee could be tasted and it looked nothing like the promotional pictures. An iced americano was also purchased and equally was so weak, it could’ve been flavored water. Disappointing and overpriced.”
