This small kiosk by archway station is both humble and cosy. It is run by two Turkish men and is in a great location, there for commuters who need a coffee or snack for the road as they rush on to their destinations. It serves a multitude of coffees including chai lattes (which in my opinion are excellent), Turkish coffee and, unusually, mushroom coffee. The kiosk also sells food, again for people on the go who need a swift energy boost such as dried fruit and biscuits. The service there is quick,dedicated and with an air of expertise from both men as they concoct the drinks, even putting a lid on it before waving their customers goodbye. The products are at a reasonable price, it is 4 20 for a chai latte and the kiosk caters for those wanting plant based milk. Overall this is an extremely nice find, cheerful and useful for travellers and passers by.
