I was looking for somewhere different to grab some coffee from and noticed Balcone was highly rated and on my route. Really friendly staff who showed me their fantastic selection of products, including alcohol free beer 🤩 My husband says the coffee is delicious! Thanks 🙏
Just moved to the area and was in need of a good local coffee shop and Balcone is incredible. Not only do they make incredible coffee, they stock lots of different roasters on rotation. Being able to pick up Cat and Cloud (at a super reasonable price) is incredible!
Best coffee around! The owners are super friendly and down to earth - good people - really care about quality products and ingredients. The homemade baked goods are top notch, I will always crave the choc-banana bread. Great knowledge of their wine selection, always make a great recommendation when
Had a nice smooth and tasty espresso, Columbian Square Mile beans. Cool little shop: wine, beers, coffee, some other food + drink bits
This place is perfect regardless of what you're looking for, atmosphere, style, coffee, food, wine, ALL BRILLIANT. My favourite. Highly recommended the Saturday grill. Really reasonably priced too. It's a pretty chilled vibe and also very lovely. Can't fault it.
Balcone is a gem. With so many other places (mostly chains) to choose from in the area, it's easy to miss. But this little shop is a mainstay and every coffee is made with care - they know everything there is to know about their wines and beers, too. Don't miss this great (if tiny) East London treas
It's simply one of the best coffee shops in Hackney. Really, they do great coffee. It's also a carefully curated grocery, where each bottle of wine, beer and food is chosen with a keen and discerning eye. The owners are lovely people, proud to call it my local coffee shop!
Great place for coffee, wine and bourgeois cupboard items!
When it comes to coffee in this area, it's hard to get something reasonably priced, fast and most importantly... tasting exceptionally good. Every other coffee shop in the area suffers from either poor tasting coffee, lines out the door, slow service, rude staff... the list goes on. Here at Balcone,
Amazing place with a beautiful garden and very friendly, welcoming owners. As a coffee lover i can tell you it was one of the best espressos i have ever had very smooth and served in preheated espresso cups. This is now a regular spot for coffees and delicious snacks, i would recomend all coffee lov
Love this place ! Great salad and special events for foodies. Amazing coffee too. The couple running the place are so welcoming and passionate about what they do, the products they promote are often from the community. You can tell their heart and soul goes into what they do and this is equally refl
One of the nicest cafes out East, such a chilled and relaxed vibe. Amazing coffee with various selection of some of the best roasters across Europe. Great selection of natural wine and the food is delicious. Highly recommend, worth travelling out of your way for.
All the staff here were just really lovely and friendly. A good coffee place with good coffee - but the people were just so nice. Had a lovely trip to Victoria Park Market, then went to Balcone for a coffee -and that was lovely too.
And i was really sleepy, so it wasn't like I was being charming an
Great coffee and always good service. The owners are super friendly. Has a great selection of deli foods on offer and natural wine.
