CBRE Investment Management welcomes independent Coffee House within the newly revitalised destination

CBRE Investment Management celebrates the new year and launch of the neighbourhood café and coffee roasters, Saint Espresso, for its flagship London location at Angel Central, joining its first-ever café on Pentonville Road in Islington.

Situated in the bespoke glass fronted kiosk within the revitalised central plaza of Angel Central, a key part of the refurbishment, Saint Espresso has been specifically chosen to complement the offer at the community-led retail and leisure destination and will include additional outdoor seating.

Saint Espresso produce and roast the highest quality coffee, available to purchase in-store and online. The coffee is sourced ethically and transparently from small producers across the world.

Commenting on the opening, Asset Manager at CBRE Investment Management, Ciara Daffy, said: “Saint Espresso is a fantastic addition to Angel Central, not only does it bring our new look central plaza to life, but we are pleased to be able to provide a home for a local independent brand wanting to expand in the area and alongside our current retailers, restaurants and leisure offer. We look forward to seeing the local community utilise this central hub when visiting Angel Central.”

Leon Zadeh, Founder of Saint Espresso, added: “The location within the heart of Angel Central provides our brand with a perfect space to share our offer with local residents and new visitors alike. We worked closely with the destination to deliver our second site in the area.  Being brand new, the café design is totally unique, providing a retreat from daily life and a time to reflect alongside great company.”

Angel Central has celebrated some key milestones in 2021; from the Summer Fete and sustainable Christmas Forest events to retail openings including; Love Not Landfill pop-up store and receiving the prestigious Fitwel health and wellbeing award, and finally, the completion of the £16m refurbishments, seeing the iconic 12-tonne Angel wings being elevated to create a new pedestrian link bridge connecting the scheme.

This significantly refurbished Angel Central has enabled the creation of new restaurants, retail and leisure space already attracting the attention of some brand-new retail and leisure concepts for 2022 including the South Korean fried chicken brand, Pelicana, set to open in early 2022.
