Bad Coffee is a female led micro roastery in Hackney Wick, East London, founded by Mandi and Alex. The two honed their skills at PEARL, a well known brunch spot in the neighbourhood, before launching their own roasting operation. They source beans from smallholder farms around the world and roast in small batches, labelling each bag by hand. The roastery doubles as an espresso bar that serves as a gathering point for the local community. Sustainability is woven into the daily routine: spent grounds go to a nearby school's garden, chaff feeds composting at a local garden centre, and customers get a discount for bringing their own containers. The ethos is unpretentious, inclusive, and focused on making specialty coffee feel approachable.
