Discovered this place because it?s near the bus stop on my new commute. Tried the coffee and a pastry last week; both were excellent. The barista started serving right at 7:00 AM, and I was out the door with my order by 7:02.
However, when I came back today (14/8) at 7:00 AM, the shop was still locked. The person inside was still cleaning up. I waited until 7:05 and knocked; he gestured ?2 minutes? through the window but I had to catch my bus so I left.
Just wondering: if the posted opening hours are 07:00-15:30, should customers expect service to start at 7:00 or is the staff only arriving at 7 and needs time to open up still? If it?s going to be a few minutes later, maybe a quick explanation or sign would help manage expectations

Fantastic coffee roastery, all extremely tasty and excellently artisanal. Pastries and sandwiches are all so fresh. Always a treat if you want a good tasting coffee and pastry.

Great independent roasters. Stopped in by chance after a long bike ride and the couple running it were very friendly. Great coffee too ?

Went for a coffee here tuesday 22nd of July, very rude service! The guy in the front is extremely unfriendly! It made me and my friends feel uncomfortable and not welcome at all. It shouldn?t be like this when you go to a coffee shop and spend money. We definitely won?t be coming here again!

I Love this coffee place, it's a shame there's not many around now? small batch has one of the best coffee around, with a nice little cafe close to the sea and nice atmosphere and the caramel oat ice latte is amazing..! highly recommend and the staff are always there to help

The sign on the corner is posted as open, on the internet it says open but the company is closed. I do not recommend

This branch of Small Batch, which shares its space with the roastery, is great. The baristas are friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. And, unusually for the Brighton area, there?s parking. So it?s easy to either drop in and take away or to sit and enjoy the coffee.

I normally used to go to this café but no more because my little one has ADHD and wow how I was spoken to. As you're all aware, having a child with ADHD isn't easy, and they spoke disgustingly it's a girl who's there on a Wednesday. My son is a bit hyper, and because I was talking to my son, raising my voice as a parent, please avoid if you have children, and she is there Wednesday normally. Left without ordering.dont even take cash and that lady has given other people grief with children with them my mate used to come from worthing to get a coffee before dropping off her daughter she nearly cried because of this woman who is so rude and nasty how she speaks to people with kids specially when they have editional needs. Greg's even better and a coffee shop on boundary rd much cheaper to and family friendly.plus I am partial deaf aswell
