"Sadiq Merchant’s Amoret moved into Notting Hill with two striking statements: a coffee vine illustration that climbs up the building’s facade like Alex Honnold in Free Solo, and a commitment to roasting its own coffee. It’s now an established neighbourhood fixture, and Merchant’s Giesen roaster is behind some of the best cups in the area." - James Hansen
Wow! The coffee is exquisite! The careful curation, the multi-roaster model, the fragrant beans- smelling and tasting the beans here actually uplifts you!
The pour-over options are diverse, some fruity others chocolatey and nutty. I chose a vibrant fruity sublime Yemeni single origin- utterly delightful. London has fostered a reputation for a serious coffee culture and this shop ferments that reputation. Really well-done coffee.
Amoret also offers complimentary drip to try and the wonderful part of this was that even for their drip, they use a high quality bean. I know this because the drip was luke warm yet still incredibly tasty. One can tell a lot by the way flavors evolve as they cool down. Theirs was delicious through and through 💜

5,6 pounds for something I could make in my own kitchen without any effort….(the benchmark price of a matcha latte in London, according to my experiences, should be at around 4,5)
So with an above average price, I think I deserve at least a simple latte art?
Or am I just paying for its fame and the location premium of Notting Hill?

Barista guy was very friendly, and he made pretty good latte and chai latte.
The banana cake was decent.
Ambience was alright. Maybe some music might be good.
Nonetheless, a good spot to relax.

Friendly barista welcoming made a great Flat White for me, which was fresh, nutty and very refreshing from the freshly roasted beans.
A great place to stop by and chill out from day-out for walking a long distance in Notting hill and Portobello Road Market.
Highly recommended.

One of the best coffees I have had in London. They have different types of blends and brewing methods you can choose from. We ordered mocha, americano and latte. All the three were amazing, love how the barista spent significant time on preparing the perfect mocha. Also, the blend used for Americano was brilliant, naturally sweet and low on acidity. Special mention to the Barista, who was very warm and welcoming and extremely knowledgeable about his trade. Would definitely visit again.

They take their coffee seriously here and explain why. Definitely a good place to get a cuppa while at Portobello Road.

Great coffee shop and roastery, patient and polite barista who‘s able to explain everything. We tried a natural light ethiopian doppio - nice sweet spot, fruity and strong acidity. Loved it, highly recommended.

Super knowledgeable staff, friendly and passionate about coffee.
Went in on a quiet morning, and enjoyed the chit chat. I actually love the way she just casually brought up the fact that they roast their own coffee beans and weaved it into the conversation that it was available for purchase.
