Our children are our future
This October, we’ve took part in Manchester United and England footballer Marcus Rashford’s ‘End Child Poverty’ campaign.

We strongly believe that no child should ever stay hungry. Ever.

We couldn’t sit back and ignore the issue. We wanted to make sure that they don’t and that we are involved in stopping this, in some capacity.

Up until 30th October, all our 3 stores took part and thanks to our amazing team, we prepared some ready made meals for children and families to take away.

We wanted to say a special thanks to Marcus Rashford for creating awareness for this highly important issue and to the other volunteers and businesses who also did their part.

We are always committed to help to those who may need our help - as much as we can.

Please stay safe and see you soon.

2020
Woah. What a year 2020 has been so far. There has been a whirlwind of events. It has been different from previous years. This year has really challenged us on all aspects but we didn’t give up.

We have been doing our best at The Black Penny to make the pandemic less like a pandemic to our customers, colleagues, community et al.

We have donated PPE and food to our NHS and emergency service heroes.

More than just a coffee house, here at The Black Penny we care for the well-being of colleagues, customers and our community. It’s so important to us. It’s part of our values and ethics.

Not just ‘the home of good coffee’ but the home of good and positive vibes, too.

We continue to help where we can do so and will do so until the very end.

Your friends from The Black Penny.

SOUTHBANK WEEKEND BRUNCH SPECIAL
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It sets the mood for the day. Most of us skip it because we can’t get it to motivate us. But, it doesn’t have to be like that. Here at The Black Penny we’ve made breakfast the best part of the day.

From breakfast classics such as beans and toast to crispy bacon buns to healthier options such as granola, muesli and oats to hashes - we’ve got you.

Winter is upon us. We’ve got delicious lattes to flat whites to hot chocolates. Warm yourself up. In style.

We’ve got a special offer at our Southbank branch to level up breakfast.

Here goes:

Buy one get second menu item half price.

Prosecco for a Penny when you get the first one.

Breakfast will never be boring again.

If you’re out to explore London The Black Penny is the perfect pit stop.

Our Southbank branch is very close to the London Eye, the Waterloo Underground Station, King’s College London and many other hotspots.
