About

Old Shoreditch Station Coffee Shop is much more than just a coffee shop. The shop converts into a bar in the evenings and features a food menu, but more interestingly, it serves as a space where artists can exhibit their work and music fans can catch a gig.

The venue is sponsored by Jaguar Shoes Collective, an affiliation of businesses and individuals working toward promoting local art, including visual and musical offerings. The space also serves as a place for product line launches and is a prime spot for people-watching in the bustling Shoreditch district in London's East End.

Update as of December 2023: The location is currently undergoing renovations indefinitely.
