#FLODown: this month in drink
This Month in Coffee
Ozone Coffee
Ozone Coffee has been providing us with glorious coffee since ’98. This Shoreditch roaster is run by Kiwis and is a key fixture on the London coffee scene – but it can be found in a number of other London locations. The exposed brickwork, benches and greenery aplenty, which will make you feel right at home. Their coffee beans are roasted expertly in their downstairs roaster, their baristas don cool denim aprons and their fresh interiors will make you never want to leave. They also serve a ridiculously delicious breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner – the queues are out the door on weekends!

This Month in Bars
Jaks Mayfair
Jaks Mayfair is a true hidden gem. Set in the basement of a four-storey townhouse and featuring a wall-to-wall speakeasy styled bar with quirky furnishing, Jaks is the perfect central location for some casual drinks. With live music late at night, an extensive wine list and a feel-good atmosphere Jaks is most definitely one of Mayfair’s most underrated bars.
