Mosey Café

At 60 Nunhead Lane, London, Mosey is more than a café—it’s a vibrant community hub where great coffee meets sustainability. For the past two years, this independent gem has been minimising its environmental impact while serving top-tier food and drinks.

 

One of Mosey’s standout eco-friendly practices is its coffee delivery system. Partnering with Carnival Coffee Roasters, a local, family-run roastery, Mosey receives its coffee grounds weekly by bicycle, cutting emissions from transport. Carnival Coffee Roasters source their beans ethically, ensuring fair wages for farmers and sustainable growing methods.

 

Beyond coffee, Mosey takes waste reduction seriously. All takeaway cups are compostable, no paper receipts are printed, and even excess barista milk is transformed into béchamel sauce instead of being wasted.

 

A menu that’s kind to the planet

Mosey’s plant-based options steal the show, proving that sustainability and flavour go hand in hand. Inspired by Australian café culture, the menu is packed with cruelty-free, locally sourced ingredients that make every bite a delight.

 

Some must-try dishes include:

 

Plant-based sausage: Made with homemade kimchi, a bold and tangy twist on a classic comfort food.

 

Avocado on sourdough: Including pistachio dukkah, pickled cucumber, and chilli, a fresh, flavour-packed brunch favourite.

 

• Heritage tomatoes toast, with wild garlic: This delicious toast also includes sunflower seed pesto, making it even more tasty.
