Coffee is better with company.
The best café tips have always come from people, not star ratings. Be.Coffee puts the friends whose taste you trust, the regulars who got there first and the cafés themselves in your pocket, so every cup is a good one.

Find coffee through people, not stars.
Stop guessing from averages. Follow people whose rankings match yours and every tip arrives already filtered for your taste. A 9.1 from someone who likes what you like is worth more than a thousand anonymous stars, and it's waiting for you on Saturday morning.

Somewhere new, every week.
Never run out of places to try. New openings, the café of the week and the guest roaster everyone keeps mentioning reach you before the queue does, with a plain reason why each one is worth your walk. Your weekend is sorted before you've finished your first cup.

Closer to the cafés you love.
Be the regular who always knows. Hear from your favourite cafés the moment a new coffee lands, a cupping is announced or a deal is on at the counter. Ask a question and the owner answers you. And when the filter is that good, the bag is yours in two taps.

Every café worth the walk, on one map.
Find the right café in the time it takes to cross the road. Scores sit right on the pins, so you can tell a 9 from a 6 at a glance and skip the gamble. Zoom in and you'll see what each place is known for before you've even set off.
- Chasing a roaster or a bean? Search for it by name and see every café nearby pouring it.
- Need sockets, a great filter and somewhere open early? Filter down to exactly that, and only walk to cafés that fit.
- Never arrive at a closed door. Open now is one tap. Spotted a café we've missed? Add it in one more.
Know before you go.
No more gambling £4 on a stranger's four stars. Every score comes from people who've actually sat down and drunk the coffee, so one glance tells you whether it's worth the walk. One tap tells you why.
- See it through your friends' eyes. Your score, your network's and the community's sit side by side, so the place your friends adore and the crowd ignores never slips past you.
- Get the right café for the moment. Coffee, craft, food, vibe and hospitality are scored separately, so you'll find a quiet filter for a work morning and the best pastries on a Sunday.
- Decide in seconds. Scores come from rankings, not reviews, so there's nothing to wade through. A 9 simply means people would go back before almost anywhere else.
Rank, don't review.
Thirty seconds after your last sip, your visit is logged and your personal top ten has updated. No essays to write, no stars to agonise over: answer a couple of quick questions and your own list builds itself.
A feed that knows your taste, and tells you why.
Tell it once how you like your coffee, from fruity washed Ethiopians to a dependable flat white, and your feed does the hunting for you. Every day it brings you the cafés nearby that match, what your friends rated, what's just opened and the café of the week.
Nothing is a mystery: every recommendation says exactly why it's there, and anything sponsored is always labelled.

Know what's on the grinder before you go.
Walk in already knowing you'll like what's on. Check it's open, see which coffees are on today and that the beans are fresh, spot an offer to claim at the counter, and get directions in the maps app you actually use, all before you've left the house.
- Order with confidence. Roaster, origin, process, roast and caffeine strength for every coffee, in the roaster's own words, so you know what you're getting before you reach the counter.
- Eat without the twenty questions. Ingredients, dietary suitability and allergens are listed for every signature drink and dish.
- No surprises on arrival. Brew methods, hours, Wi-Fi and sockets, accessibility and the walk from the station, all answered before you set off.
- Trust what you read. A blue tick means the owner keeps the listing current, so the hours and the coffees are right.
The coffee you loved today, in your kitchen tomorrow.
Never forget the name of that filter again. Buy the bag while it's still on your mind, pick it up on your way out or have it land on your doorstep, and pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or card in seconds. Stripe keeps the payment safe, and reordering next month takes a single tap because your details are already saved.
