Qima Coffee is a well-known coffee sourcing and trading company that specializes in finding and delivering some of the world’s best coffees with the goal of establishing sustainable lifestyles for smallholder farmers. Qima Café ushers in an exciting new chapter for Qima Coffee.
In a genuinely one-of-a-kind, immersive coffee experience, our central London café presents our specialty coffee idea to both our current B2B client base and the general public.

The Qima café will aim to pair its coffees with pastries and treats of an equally excellent caliber in keeping with its philosophy of serving some of the best coffees in the world.
