OCTOBER & NOVEMBER
GUEST COFFEE - ORIGIN
A New Arrival on the Grinder
We’re very happy to welcome a new guest coffee: Beja Flor, roasted by the brilliant team at Origin Coffee down in Porthleven, Cornwall. This single-origin Brazilian, grown by four exceptional female producers, is a standout of the SMC programme, championing quality, skill and women in coffee.
In the cup you’ll find gentle sweetness, soft florals, layers of apricot, cashew and praline. Smooth, balanced and quietly impressive.
Enjoy it in house or pick up a bag from our retail shelves to take home.
Beja Flor is not only delicious; it’s a celebration of collaboration and change in coffee production.

NEW AUTUMN MENU
A New Season at Folk
Autumn has settled in, and with it comes a fresh menu full of warmth and comfort.
Say hello to the Kim-Cheese toastie—our Folk Larder kimchi folded through three melty cheeses. Or start your morning with maple-roasted plum porridge and pistachio crumb.
Lunch brings a touch of Scandi with smoked mackerel and horseradish cream cheese, and our much-loved turmeric hummus open toast, crunchy chickpeas, walnut gremolata, pickled carrot and dill, now a full-time menu resident.
November feels better already.
Folk SPONSORS Real ST ED’s FC
Folk x Real St Edmunds
We’re proud to be sponsoring Real St Edmunds FC, managed by our very own barista (and resident sports fanatic), Fergus.
They’ve kicked off the season in style with a 6–0-win, Folk on their sleeve and plenty of momentum.
Catch them at home on Sundays at Gainsborough Park or follow them across Suffolk. Good coffee and good football both deserve a solid crowd.
AUTUMN DRINKS SPECIALS
Sip, Sip, Ahhh
