The Grind Cafe

Walk into The Grind and you'll clock the industrial bones of this converted warehouse space on Green Lane – exposed brick, high ceilings, the works. It's the sort of place where your flat white actually tastes like someone's bothered with it, and the breakfast menu reads like they've actually thought about what people want at 8am rather than just chucking anything on a plate. The crowd's a good mix: laptop warriors, post-gym types, people who just genuinely love a decent coffee. It's busy but never feels mad, and the staff know their stuff without being pretentious about it.
