The Little Red Roaster, Norwich Market

I’m a big fan of local markets, I think they offer something which the supermarkets just cannot; individuality. The Little Red Roaster is a prime example; an offshoot of the coffee shop bearing the same name, this stall in the market can be found by following your nose to the rich coffee aroma it emits. It’s a popular place for those in the know, it offers a good range of coffee to drink there and then as well as take home as beans. They’re always trying out new blends but have the tried and tested ones too if you just want a cup of something you know, a caffeinated chum you can rely on. It’s a little oasis amidst the constant motion of the market itself, it’s a fantastic place just to take it all in and warm yourself up in the winter. The coffee is so fresh tasting and well selected, it serves some of the best in the city. I’m not a big chain basher, I love Starbucks if only for the ability to buy a gallon of coffee there in one serving, but on the other end of the scale, the espresso, this place beats up all the big boys hands down.
