The cup

An independent roastery and cafe in the Châtelain neighbourhood of Ixelles, opened in 2016 by founders Loïc and Charly, who had been roasting and supplying other Brussels businesses before opening the bar. The espresso is extracted on a La Marzocco with the house blend Le Petit Noir or a rotating single origin; filter runs to Kalita, Aeropress, Chemex and French press. A small walled garden at the rear is one of the better outdoor spots in the neighbourhood. Roasts its own coffee.
