Quick info
About The Colombian Coffee Company
The Colombian Coffee Company is a coffee shop on Greek St in Soho, London, run as a social enterprise that supports coffee growing communities in Colombia. The coffee is single origin rather than blended, and a bag of Pink Bourbon beans is sold to take home. The drinks menu covers espresso and cold brew, and the cafe con leche is made the Colombian way. Beef empanadas arrive with a chilli sauce, and European style cakes sit alongside the Colombian food for those who want something sweet. The team brews to order and brings each coffee over to the table. The interior is wood-dominant with plenty of seats, vintage-style plates and cups, and Colombian music playing.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers come first for the coffee, singling out single origin brews such as a Castillo Natural cold brew, a cappuccino, a cafe con leche made the Colombian way and an oat latte, and describing them as balanced, rich and fresh. One reviewer left with a bag of Pink Bourbon beans. Close behind is the Colombian food: a beef empanada with shredded stewed filling and a chilli sauce, plus pan de bono and almojabanas alongside the cold brew or tinto. Diners describe a warm, quiet, chilled room with wood decor, vintage-style cups and plates, and staff who chat about coffee, grind and brew with care, and carry drinks to the table. The recurring caveat is cost, with a few calling the coffee pricey while saying quality matches. Pastries draw the one real food complaint, as a brownie was called a disappointment and nothing particular. One barista double-checked a customer's milk preference before making the drink.

“Absolutely fantastic coffee, very rare to find coffee so well selected, roasted, and of course expertly made and served. The staff are so wonderful, and obviously knowledgeable. The atmosphere in the cafe is welcoming and warm, and I will be returning frequently. We had an espresso and a cold brew (the cold brew was Castillo Natural) and they were both phenomenal. Can’t wait to come back :)”

“A really pleasant spot in the centre of Soho. The atmosphere is incredibly unique. As you walk in you’ll be greeted by warm decor, colombian music (and of course the smell of good coffee!) Staff are really friendly and very happy to chat coffee with you. The barista made sure to double-check my milk preference which was very kind. They insisted I sit down and brought my coffee over. They served me what might have been one of the best cups i’ve had in a while. Balanced, sweet and an incredibly fresh roast paired a rich crema. I had to pick up a bag of their Pink Bourbon beans when I visited— very excited to try it out at home! Go support local social enterprise. They’re right about one thing: ethical coffee always tastes better! If you’re visiting the area, this is the spot to go to. It’s more than just a treat!”

“Rich and flavourful coffee served in pretty MUGS on Greek Street. We had a cappuccino and a cafe con leche (Colombian method). Both coffees were aromatic and complex and we enjoyed them, in this cafe’s lovely atmosphere. Price is quite high but quality is also high. A must for coffee lovers!”

Good to know
“We are a social enterprise ethically committed to supporting coffee growing communities in Colombia. We specialise in single origin coffee varieties as opposed to blends. In Colombia we only grow arabicas, which is divided into 56 different varieties such us Caturra, Castillo, Borbon, Gesha, Typica, etc. At our shop in Soho we also offer traditional Colombian food like tamales and empanadas and of course we also have more European style cakes.”
