Did a 2-3h latte art course here and had a pretty nice experience! Good demos and guidance around hearts, tulips and rosettas. Can be a bit challenging if you're a complete latte art beginner but with a tiny bit of experience you can get a lot out of this course. If there's more than 3 people it could be a bit more difficult as you need to rotate in steaming and pouring.

This experience was amazing!! Farah was so knowledgeable and patient. We got so many tries making the perfect latte (and other coffee styles too - not always on purpose, but we tried!) and learnt SO MUCH about the art! I booked this for my best friend for her birthday and we were complete beginners (just very passionate about drinking coffee and making it at home!) and this experience was perfect for us. But I would highly recommend to any ability coffee maker as Farah has SO much knowledge to share. So much fun! One this I think is definitely worth mentioning is that I personally dont drink cows milk and I was given the option of trying a few with oat milk which I couldnt find with any other latte art experience online!

Went on the 2 hour course with Farah. Absolutely amazing course and couldnt recommend it enough. As in depth as you want it to be, and she was able to identify my favour coffee and prepare it. My coffee making at home is genuinely on a par with the best coffees I buy. Well worth it.

This is a joke of a course. Participated in one on 18th Feb 2023. There were 11 people and space for 6. The first 30 min were spent to check who was when enrolled and from what course. There is not enough place to even sit for everyone. The instructor - Farrah? Did not have much knowledge - very basic info, and if you wanted to know more about a topic- it was clear she didn't know. The course is only for someone who never used ANY coffee machine and his experience is only to boil water and pour over instant coffee. They will teach you where to press to grind etc. The basic course was followed by latte art and this was the part where lack of knowledge of the instructor was jyst obvious- after the short instruction that looked like from the the back of the milk box we proceed to trying on our own. Majority of us failed and the teacher wasnt even able to give any tips to make it work and tweak the technique. It is a rip-off. Watch YouTube videos instead - you will learn more while being comfortable and save money.

Its quite fun and mysterious trying to find this little gem, nestled inbetween high build offices and tiny takeaway booths, once you find it you know it was worth the journey. When you arrive upstairs the room is very much like a modern workspace, sort of arty and feels very comfortable. Our teacher for the day was cheerful, engaging and knowledgeable. We found out later she was very new and we couldnt tell. Lots of hands on experience with machines, and focus on the perfect espresso, the delving into practing milk. Ive left feeling confident that with the knowldge ive learnt, practicing will be less daunting. Highly reccomend. Thank youuu
