Very popular stop
It was finally time to stop by Shoreditch Grind and try it's coffee.
Is this popular place worth visiting or it is too hyped?
I have walked by this place so many times I can't even count them. There was not one time that the place was quiet.
Well, at least until this day. I was once again in the area and I was about to leave and enter the Old Street Underground station, that is just by the Shoreditch Grind, when I looked inside and saw that it was almost empty, just a couple of people.
It seemed quiet and ideal for a first visit, since it is always so busy.
The ideal location and iconic building where this coffee shop is, make it an easy choice, to stop to grab your coffee.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mind busy places, but since Shoreditch Grind it is in an area where people are always coming and going, I personally, like to avoid that energy, of people coming in and out nonstop.
Specially, when I am looking for a place to enjoy my coffee breaks.
The atmosphere was really nice, I liked the decoration. The staff seemed really chilled, although they were not the most friendly, but that is fine. It is not something that bother me much.
Time to taste the coffee and know that if it was worth the stop, or if all that we have experience so far, will be ruined by an awful coffee blend.

In my opinion, and for my taste: It was okay.
Once again another blend of coffee very bland and not very strong, with some sweetness that makes the coffee feel like it has a weak flavour to coffee.
If I was local, or passed by everyday, this would not be the place I would choose to get my coffee, but also, I know for sure I would visit to just chill, even though the coffee is not to my personal taste.
