Nostos Coffee
When asking for specialty coffee recommendations in London, the name that always comes up is “Nostos Coffee.”
This time, we visited their St. James’s Park location.
The word “Nostos” comes from ancient Greek, meaning “homecoming.”
Inspired by this philosophy, Nostos Coffee creates a coffee shop that balances authentic quality with everyday comfort
—a place that feels like a reassuring “home base” to which anyone can return.
At the St. James’s Park, coffee enthusiasts, local office workers, and tourists all mingle,
filling the space with vibrant energy every day.

“Our goal is to help more people in London appreciate coffee through experiences anyone can enjoy.
Just like wine or cocktails, we want coffee to be embraced as a culture to be savored.
As for those special experiences, we don’t believe they should be reserved only for people who pay premium prices—we want everyone to have them as part of everyday life.”
Founder Edison explains it this way.

Nostos Coffee and ORIGAMI
Nostos Coffee and ORIGAMI
At Nostos Coffee, ORIGAMI products are used throughout the brewing and serving process.
From the ORIGAMI Dripper Air to the Pino Flavor Cup, cone-shaped paper filters, Aroma Glass Server, and Aroma Cup,
a wide range of tools support each cup of coffee served daily.
One of the key reasons they use the ORIGAMI Dripper Air for brewing in-store is its ability to bring out the full character of each coffee bean.
It also strikes an excellent balance of durability, consistency, and clarity in flavor—qualities that make it highly valued not just for taste,
but also for functionality in daily operations.
Pour over is served with a Pino Flavor Cup with Aroma Glass Server, allowing customer to savor the evolving aromas and flavors as coffee is gently poured
—engaging not only the palate, but also the senses of sight and smell.
The cup colors are selected intuitively by the baristas,
choosing from white, matte black, and pink, depending on the character and flavor impression of each coffee.
