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.

PEAK (WHISKY) COFFEE, FOR A PENNY
A taste of “The Black Mountain” at The Black Penny We’re excited to announce we have teamed up with Speyside Distillery, a boutique producer of luxury malt whiskies based in the Highlands, to serve Beinn Dubh, a brand new single malt ruby black whisky. A shot of this uniquely dark whiskey will be added to any coffee (at your request at the cost of 1p) between 10am and 12 noon, from Monday to Friday until the end of January. “Beinh Dubh” translates as “Black Mountain,” in homage to the whisky’s ruby black tone and the rich darkness of the Scottish highlands it hails from. Beinh Dubh complements both dark and light coffees; its deep fruits, currants and dark chocolate top notes blend delicately with the subtle fruit and deep cocoa flavours of our Alchemy Opus beans – while providing a lively contrast to the bright, fruity tang of the Alchemy Opus we use for milkier coffees such as lattes and flat whites. Who’d have thought a touch of the Scottish Highlands could warm you up in the morning?

A MATCHA MADE IN HEAVEN
Craving a healthy beverage? Matcha is the tasty tonic of choice for Zen Buddhists. Packed with goodness and bursting with health benefits, matcha (also referred to as “that amazing green thing”), is a refreshingly sweet source of energy and nutrition. Supped daily by devout Buddhists across the globe, matcha is made from shade-grown tea leaves. After hand-picking only the finest buds, tea farmers crumble and de-vein the leaves for a purer taste before stone-grinding into a beautifully bright, green powder. This is the same vivid green matcha we brew with at The Black Penny. A small spoon of the potent powder is whisked with a zigzag motion into boiled water, producing a deep, sweet tea packed with powerful antioxidants. To make a matcha latte, just add milk, like we have in the image above. We hope you enjoy matcha as much as your body will. Fun Fact: While matcha originates from the Tang Dynasty, Western Chefs have been know to combine its unique flavour with cheesecake, swiss roll, and other sweet treats.
