London Coffee Podcast

In this episode of the London Coffee Podcast, we’re joined in the studio by Brendan Olley and Chris Fields, the co-founders of SHED London.
SHED is more than a café concept — it’s also a photo studio, workspace, and wine bar. A space where coffee, wine, food, and art come together, built around community and creativity.
We talk about what it takes to run a three-site, multi-faucet business, how they maintain quality as they grow, and the philosophy behind creating venues that people genuinely connect with.
