Roastery
United Kingdom
,
London
Dark Arts Roastery is the takeout-focused HQ in Hackney’s Homerton, where the bar sits right alongside roasting, QC, and production, giving the space a purposeful, workshop-adjacent energy. Their own coffees are served as espresso and filter, and the proximity to the roastery makes each cup feel like a direct read on what they are roasting right now.
Shoreditch
United Kingdom
,
London
Dark Arts Shoreditch is a moody little coffee stand inside The Great Frog in Shoreditch, surrounded by the texture and glow of a jewellery-filled retail space rather than a classic café room. It pours their coffees as espresso and filter, keeping things tight, fast, and characterful in a setting that feels more subculture storefront than coffee temple.
SoHo
United Kingdom
,
London
Dark Arts Soho is “Nowhere,” a small collaboration spot in Soho inside Aries Arise, designed to feel like a hidden coffee corner embedded in fashion and street-level buzz. Coffee runs as espresso and filter using their wholesale lineup, with occasional exclusives, so it drinks like a curated highlight reel rather than a full café program.
