St James Street · Walthamstow E17

MiLK

A proper coffee shop on the corner of St James Street.

Perky Blenders coffee pulled on the Faema, croissants and pastries fresh on the counter, and a shelf of flowers, cards and treats. Grab-and-go before the train, or stay a while. Dogs welcome.

"A macchiato was suggested, great care was taken preparing it and it was one of the best I've ever had. Quick, hot, strong and served by someone who knows her coffee. Brilliant!"

"I know if I've only got 5 minutes for the next train, I'll still be able to get a great tasting coffee. The staff are also very friendly."

The counter

Coffee, bakery and a shelf worth a browse.

Everything's made to order or picked fresh. Here's what you'll usually find when you walk in.

The beans

Roasted up the road by Perky Blenders.

We pour and sell Perky Blenders, the independent E17 roaster. Their range sits on our shelf by the mood you're in. Tap one to see its character.

The house pour

Classic & Caramel

The everyday cup. Smooth, rounded and a little sweet, it's the one that works in a flat white or straight as an espresso. If you're not sure what to have, start here.
