Looking out towards the river, the National Theatre’s ground-floor coffee shop Grind is an ideal spot for a morning coffee while enjoying a stroll along the South Bank, or to spend a cosy afternoon with a book.
The coffees come courtesy of Grind, a hip London-born coffee shop who have their main roastery in nearby Bermondsey. Like the National Theatre, Grind is dedicated to reducing waste and creating a more sustainable business, so you can expect brews made with ethically and sustainably sourced beans and fully recyclable packaging.
On the coffee menu there’s all the usual favourites, plus lots of fun seasonal drinks like gingersnap latte, pecan pie chai and chilli hot chocolate.
If you like a coffee-based cocktail, make sure to drop by on a Friday when espresso martinis are £5 all day!
