The Original Milk Bar

You'll find yourself on Ness Walk, that stretch where the river's close enough you can almost hear it properly, and this place has the kind of pull that makes folk abandon their plans just to sit here longer. The Original Milk Bar does what it says—coffee that's been thought about, made with the sort of care that makes you realise how many places just don't bother. It's the type of café where regulars nod at each other, where you might overhear actual conversations instead of everyone staring at their phones, and where they remember how you take it. Not trying to be Instagram-famous or precious about it; just competent, consistent, and genuinely decent.
