Federation Coffee

I tried Federation out because I was passing through Brixton. I’m glad I did. This is a proper coffee shop with baristas who are knowledgeable about coffee and can give good advice. I enquired about purchasing beans to take away and had a chat about the flavour profile of the coffee and the best grind for my Bialetti. The barista then let me try an espresso to ensure I was happy before buying. The espresso was seriously good. The beans that were ground for me were only roasted a week ago and filled my vehicle with the most beautiful aroma all the way home. I bought a flat white with Bonsoy and was very impressed. Balanced flavour and creamy texture all the way to the last drop. My only gripe is that they didn’t have Oat milk (odd for a hipster coffee shop in 2018) and no vegan cake options either. I’ll be back for the great coffee though. Keep it up guys.

Not the best curated place but amazing coffee in vibrant Brixton Village Market some more attention to the interior decor would help ...not many seats inside and only few table outside if you lucky to grab a spot is a very enjoyable place to suck in all the energy of the village market while sipping your coffee and people watching ! They also have some pastry I love their cinnamon ban with moka w/soy as combo!

Fabulous coffee but don’t bother with takeaway food - I waited 10 minutes for half toasted bread, which I then had to attempt buttering myself (and no jam/basic toppings on the menu). Sit in breakfasts did look amazing, just don’t think takeaway should be offered if it’s not done properly.

Baristas were super friendly and dedicated to their work. Seemed to really enjoy working there. Love the vibe, outdoor seating is really cool, they give you blankets to use while you're out there!

Small coffee shop in Brixton Village but good ambience and good coffee. As a digital nomad, the only thing I feel disappointed is no power outlets. I cannot stay longer. 😂

An absolute gorgeous place though absolutely terrible customer service! I have basically just been thrown out by the staff for absolutely no reasons. This happened while I was quietly waiting for a take away coffee that I have been told would take no less than 5 minutes be be served. I had no problem to wait if you were busy, dair enough, but it s not a reason to be rude! I asked for my money back and left, unfortunately I wont be back

One of the best places in Brixton for quality coffee - Pastries/cakes aren't too shabby either.

The coffee is always amazing (ask what they have on batch brew), the tunes are always banging, the food is simple but very high-quality and the staff are a delight.
