about two years ago i blogged a link to a map created by a friend dwayne of best coffee places in london. i think have pretty much visited all of them now! well by way of an update jen pointed out that timeout had a feature on good coffee shops in london (the print version is better as it had ones for north, south, east, west as well as central) - i don't know a lot of these so some to explore if you are  in town. to be honest i am writing this as much for my own reference as anyone else's so i can find this list! i didn't miss many things while i was on silent retreat but i have to say getting back to a decent coffee has been nice 🙂
