Laynes

Properly pulled espresso and flat whites that'll ruin you for chain coffee. Third-wave done right, without the pretension.

You'll find Laynes tucked away on New Station Street, just off the station – the kind of spot where regulars queue before 8am because they know what's coming. It's all reclaimed wood, exposed brick, and the kind of hum that comes from a serious espresso machine being worked properly. The baristas actually know what they're doing, which sounds basic but isn't. Order a flat white and watch them dial in the grind like they're defusing a bomb. Coffee's sourced seriously, the pastries are proper (not supermarket), and everything costs what it should, not what Instagram says it should.
