COFFEE at Glastonbury

[One Tonne Baby]

Let's talk Java, Cup O' Joe, Brain Juice, Cupped Lightning.

Where's your go to for Coffee at Glastonbury? I'm talking, nice gentle wake-up coffee, hangover jolt coffee, 'just give me your strongest shit' at 3am coffee. Any recommendations?

 

My only two experiences at Glastonbury of coffee was getting an excellent drip filter off to the side of Diary Fields that was delicious but literally took about 15 minutes and what i look back on as the best cup of coffee i've had by the Pyramid stage just before the bootleg Beatles. I was so hungover and had to get out of my tent, so went for a walk and got this coffee from somewhere - i have no idea where (left of the pyramid as you look at the stage) - and it was delicious. I may have imagined it. Anyone know?

Whilst we're at it; which ones use real milk, a fabulous coffee is easily ruined with uht milk!  I can handle all the non dairy milks in coffee even give me powdered milk but uht bleurgh!

agree. I actually prefer oat milk as it give's a bit of sweetness but UHT just shows they dont care what the coffee tastes like!

Oat milk is the best, then I’m again I’m vegan so I would say that, but I genuinely don’t know why anyone has milk anymore when you have oat milk as an alternative.

Need to do a recce on Wednesday and find out who’s using Oatly barista. Have to wonder what the hell anyones doing using anything else.

There was a decent place up by Williams Green last time, cant remember the name though. Don't drink as much as I used to so need my late night coffee buzz 😆

This might be why people don't use it. Or at least it's why the coffee shop near me doesn't 🙂

After quite a few bad morning coffees in 2019, we'll be taking an Aeropress with us and making it ourselves!

You're not wrong but I only take a splash of milk 😉 otherwise I gulp the coffee down and burn my tongue!

Hey lovely, agreed, the Oatly barista is so nice, my Mum, who isn’t vegan, loves it too x

Not on cereals for breakfast, I like oat milk and am quite happy in coffee but I also just like to drink milk (I swamp my cereal) and it still has to be real milk for that

This is a thread I can 100% get behind 😂

P.s anywhere with a Soya flat white is for me

That's my go to place. As a volunteer/staff they also gave me a discount if I showed my wristband which was good.

The oat milk I've tried hasn't worked as well in tea for me, otherwise I'd be happy to switch. Maybe I just need to try a few more.

Usually you need one that says barista on it the others can still curdle.
