Jack Garcia

Coffee shop in the heart of the flower market

Welcome to Jack Garcia Coffee shop, we’re an established coffee shop offering a variety of espresso drinks, teas, pastries, and sandwiches.

Above all our goal is to make a great space for visitors to come and escape the hustle and bustle of the flower market.

Since starting out in 2008, we have continually been improving our coffee shop to bring you the best coffee and pastries.

So watch out for our new state of the art espresso machine arriving at the end of September, currently being built in Italy.

Our opening times are 8am to 3pm Saturday and Sunday.

The Jack Garcia Story

Way back in the 1938 Jack Garcia carefully weighed rationed portions of tea, coffee and sugar for his customers at 150 Columbia Road.

While outside pots of rooted vegetable plants were being sold to a nation that was being encouraged to uproot their flowering plants and plant vegetables in their gardens for food as part of of the government ‘Dig for Victory’ campaign.

Fast forward to 2006 when we first moved here as a fine art gallery, London’s East End had the most concentration of creative artists and galleries in Europe, today, Shoreditch is part of the “East London Tech City” and is fast becoming Europe’s answer to Silicon Valley.

Continuing our belief that commerce has a purpose to strengthen the community in which it thrives and celebrating the heritage of the area and this building we will now be trading as Jack Garcia.

Carefully weighing each dose of ground coffee beans we use to make the perfect cup of coffee for our customers while they shop for flowers to beautify their homes and gardens.
