Spot Light Coffee Shop Part Three

With the @brightoncoffeefestival just around the corner, I thought it was the perfect time to spotlight another fantastic local coffee shop: @sprocoffeeco in Brighton. This was a new discovery for me, it only opened in January this year but what a gem! I’ll definitely be heading back!

From the moment you walk in, the branding sets the tone: bold, fun, and full of character. A graffiti covered feature wall, mounted guitars, and a great range of branded merch give the place a unique personality and the coffee? Outrageously good!

Spro is the second venture from the owner, whose first coffee shop was based in East London. But like many, he and his family fell in love with Brighton and made the move south and lucky for us, because this spot is a real treat for specialty coffee lovers. The shop was buzzing when I visited, which speaks volumes about the quality of their offering

I ordered a flat white, which was perfectly balanced and expertly made. I also couldn’t resist one of their signature hot chocolates, topped with a giant, torched marshmallow, a decadent treat that’s clearly a crowd favourite!

Spro uses beans from @elsewhere_coffee based in London, close to where the original shop was located. The house blend is fantastic, smooth, rich, and ideal for espresso based drinks. They also offer a limited edition guest roast, Spectacle Bear, which I was lucky enough to try via a pour over. The floral notes and clean finish made it incredibly moreish

Beyond the drinks, Spro also serves a great selection of food, both savoury and sweet, including pastries, toasties, and bagels, all supplied by @real_patisserie It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a proper coffee and a delicious bite, whether you’re working, catching up with friends, or just treating yourself

Overall, Spro is an exciting new addition to Brighton’s coffee scene and one that’s quickly earned a spot on my go to list. The owner is welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what he does. If you’re in the area, definitely pop in, you won’t regret it!
