It’s officially the time of year when you’ll be forgiven for retreating into the warm shelter of coffee shops and cafes to escape the cold.

Liverpool is no stranger to cosy cafes and hidden gems that are perfect for seeking solace from the weather, but if you’re looking for somewhere lesser know, we’ve spotted just the place.

And it’s 100% vegan too.

Potts Coffee is hidden in plain sight on Slater Street, and is Liverpool’s first ever 100% vegan speciality coffee shop, serving locally roaster, ethical coffee, breakfast, brunch and lunch.

Named after one of its founders, Jonathan Potts, is a family led business and was created with the aim of bringing an ethical, environmentally friendly space for vegans and non-vegans to the city centre.

Since opening its doors in December 2019, Potts has been selling out its ‘Sausage & Egg’ muffin - which sees a marinated tofu patty substitute the egg - while its pancakes and signature almond croissants have proven big hits too.

A spokesperson for Potts Coffee said: “Liverpool city centre has a great community of independent businesses, and we really wanted to be a part of this.

“Our shop is modern and chilled, and is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

“We have been overwhelmed by the response that we have had from our customers, we have had so many lovely messages and reviews, and so many regular customers already.

“The response from other local businesses has been great too, it's great to see small businesses supporting one another.”

Potts Coffee is open from 8:30am - 5pm on Mondays and Wednesday to Saturday, and 10am - 5pm on Sundays.
