About Kaffa

Kaffa, the south western region of Ethiopia where coffee was born.

Markos founded Kaffa coffee in London's Camden canal market in 2004. Four years later his hunt for coffee lovers drew him to Gillett square, Dalston, in the cultural heart of east London. Since then Kaffa coffee has happily served the local communities the finest coffee through sunshine and rain, day and night.

Come visit Markos, relax with one of his coffees, enjoy his unique mix of music and lose yourself in the culture of Gillett square.
