Born from a love of Bondi Beach coffee culture, Urban Baristas has been bringing a little Aussie sunshine to London neighbourhoods since 2016. What started as a single kiosk in Bounds Green has grown into a thriving community of cafés across the capital and now we’re taking that warmth nationwide.
Our franchise model is designed to be simple and supportive. We give our partners the tools, training, and brand backing to succeed, without the corporate red tape.
If you believe in community, quality, and a genuine connection with the people around you, we’d love to meet you.

Urban Baristas is built on simple values: great coffee, honest food, and genuine hospitality. Every customer who walks through our door is a neighbour, and every cup we serve, from a perfectly pulled espresso to our signature Flattie, is made with care and craft. Our coffee is sustainably sourced and ethically roasted.
Our menu celebrates the best of Aussie coffee culture: a rotating selection of filter coffees named after the beaches that inspired us. Light, fresh, and unpretentious, the kind of food and drink that fits naturally into your morning, your neighbourhood, your day.
