EpicureArtisan coffee & more

Epicure is an independent coffee shop in Berkhamsted. We are passionate about our coffee, where it comes from, how it has been handled and how it is served.

The perfect cup of coffee

At Epicure we believe there are three equally important factors that contribute to producing the perfect cup of coffee.

Coffee beans

We are proud users of Union Hand Roasted Coffee. Union Coffee liaise directly with smallholder farmers around the world to source high quality coffee beans.

Barista training

At Epicure no one gets on the machine until they have the proven know how to deliver the perfect shots.

Equipment

The espresso machine we use is a La Marzocco, with two boilers, which helps to produce consistently good coffee.

These three elements come together and work in harmony to produce the best cup of coffee, so you don’t just stumble upon a good coffee.
