Launch coffee

You'll find Launch tucked away on Cresswell Street in the West End, where the coffee actually justifies the queue you'll probably join. This isn't the sort of place that'll bore you with origin stories whilst your flat white goes cold—they just do the work properly, whether you're after a smooth espresso or something more adventurous on filter. It's the kind of neighbourhood café where regulars outnumber tourists, everyone knows what they want, and the staff treat it like they actually care about what's in your cup. Strip-back aesthetic, no faffing about with the menu, just honest coffee done right.
