East<\/a>, North<\/a>, West<\/a>, and now South. Our intrepid efforts to map London’s modern coffee scene continues apace with this, our latest in the ongoing Sprudge Guide to London’s roaring coffee scene.<\/p>\n

This guide is best read in concert with the Sprudge Guide to North London<\/a>, not for some lazy comparison about compass points, but because \u201csouth\u201d is in many ways as inadequate an encapsulation of \u201cnorth\u201d for areas that stretch and unfurl horizontally as much as they do vertically. To understand how these coffee shops share commonalities but do so in radically different contexts, it would be best to walk from one to another, or visit two locals\u2014Brown\u2019s<\/a> and Good as Gold<\/a>, or Nola<\/a> and Old Spike<\/a>\u2014on one cafe crawl.<\/p>\n

Parts of London on this guide, especially Elephant and Castle, Brixton, and Peckham, have also been more violently and forcibly changed by developers and landlords\u2019 desire to tastemake for affluent property buyers. One inescapable downside of the growth of specialty coffee is what its sometimes homogenous aesthetic can flatten and erase; in turn, this guide seeks to celebrate cafes that refuse this process.<\/p>\n
