If you are a coffee enthusiast, there is one festival in the calendar of food and drink events that you should attend over all others and that is the London Coffee Festival. If you have ever wondered how many coffees might be out there, we can assure you that there is at least 250 and possibly more, because that is how many are going to be showcased at London Coffee Festival.

As well as actually sampling and tasting various coffees, there will also be competitive coffee-making fun with the first ever Coffee Master event being held at the festival. The aim of this competition is to find the best all-round, multi-disciplined barista in the UK. As with any food and drink festival, there will also be a selection of demonstrations, mouthwatering coffee cocktail recipes, an amazing array of high class street food along with a DJ to boogie on down to.

In addition to all of the above, you will also have a chance to attend Milk & Sugar, an exciting pop-up event that showcases the most exciting new brands in London covering everything from food to fashion. Get advice from upmarket Pall Mall barbers on your facial hair, try some Australian brunch food and trendy herby flavoured cocktails.

Held in London’s Old Truman Brewery, a building with a very distinctive feel and a lot of history, the London Coffee Festival is for anyone who knows more than a thing or two about coffee and those who want to learn more.
