Project 44 - Review - Shoreditch - London - The Infatuation

"Project 44 might sound like an undisclosed government UFO programme, but it’s actually a handy cafe and wine bar in Shoreditch. But ignore the wine bar part. This spot is much better used as a work-from-home upgrade. The sort where sandwiches have been made by Dusty Knuckle Bakery and the wifi never falters. There’s a fun ice box at the till filled with canned matchas and iced coffees for those who can’t linger. But if you can stick around, the benches out front are a charming spot for people-watching, and to eye up the pub opposite for post-5pm plans that involve pints and pints of prawns. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Pause Unmute Food Rundown Croissant A decent flaky, croissant. Do opt for these in the morning, though, when they’re pillowy and fresh. photo credit: Sinéad Cranna" - Sinéad Cranna

Absolutely fab find in Shoreditch. Had coffees and then moved onto wine, staff are so friendly and welcoming, wine list is interesting and have tried a few. Log burning fire is on and the vibe is warm and cosy. There was a table layout change from day to night that was managed smoothly and actually has a more intimate feel for evening service. Sharing plates available, really delicious.

Service was ok Coffee is fine but maybe the beans are a bit too roasted as the regular flat white was stronger and bitter - over roasted The staff however is a bit less friendly. I ordered a morning deal which was supposed to be a coffee and banana bread for 7£. However the staff at the counter charged me a 20% service fee without asking. When inquired why was I not told before - she/he said it’s just what we do - quite strange for a coffee shop to charge a 20% service fee! Banana bread was ok but not great - I am not sure of the other reviewers maybe they are just their friends - I ordered banana bread post reading reviews but tbh it’s not great lol - Try rugged brunch on old street if you really wanna try good banana bread. The staff did not inquire if it needed to be toasted or not. - maybe they are too new to the industry! Place is big so ok to work but don’t expect the usual friendly vibes as from other cafes in Shoreditch !

I visited Project 44 recently & I was throughly impressed! I’m not really a coffee fan, (however the coffee bean aroma inside was incredible!) I had a hot chocolate and I think I would go as far as to say it was genuinely the best one I’ve ever had. There was also a lot of food options - pastries, cakes, sandwiches & more! I opted for a croissant & it was delicious. Really fresh and tasted amazing. The staff were super friendly & the place was warm, clean and had a lovely atmosphere. I would highly recommend this little coffee shop & I can’t wait to go back. Thanks Project 44.

Prob the best coffee shop in Shoreditch, or even London. Coffee is excellent. Snacks are fantastic as well, but what’s makes this place are the kind, charming and skilled baristas. If you are kind, they will even remember your name :-).

Always an absolute pleasure, it’s my go to in the area! Love the coffee (and the little chocolate pretzel 🥨), the decor, the service, and the music. I’ll try working from here too at one point, it’s laptop friendly. Also want to try the wine bar by night, it seems like a good date spot.

The coffee here is good but just a bit too strong / bitter for my preference. Almond Pain au Chocolat tasted amazing, just wish it was more crispy.

Best banana bread I’ve ever had and the egg sandwich was just as good! Coffee was amazing and loved the presentation. Loved everything about Project 44, such a good vibe!!

Nice relaxing atmosphere… the staff are very friendly and happy to serve, all with a smile… Even near closing the welcomed people in… What a change from working up to closing time rather than clearing around you 30 minutes before closing… great place and peeps.. Oh,, great banana bread…
