What’s better than an iced coffee? Free iced coffee.
The catch? You have to work for it. We’ve put tear-off posters on buildings and lampposts near each of our cafés. All you have to do is locate a poster, tear off a token and exchange it at Grind for your free Summer Serve.
(Participating Grind locations only. Excludes Waterloo Station and National Theatre.)

Your favourite iced coffee is now in the meal deal, just in time for summer.
Obviously we had to treat the team to lunch to celebrate our Iced Caramel Latte joining the iconic deal.
Watch til the end to see who in the Grind team misunderstood the assignment 👀

This is John. John’s a coffee snob.
He only drinks Grind Craft Instant Coffee now and he makes it for his friends at the retirement village, too, when the cameras are rolling. Unfortunately in mugs, not cups and saucers. Which is VERY WRONG. But thankfully the deliciousness of the coffee makes the vessel less important.
John’s 91 so he’s got a lot of wisdom. If he’s proud to be picky about his coffee, we can all be. Because the best way to drink coffee is your favourite way. Go be a coffee snob.

Everyone’s a coffee snob now. Flat whites, iced coffees, instant…whatever your order, standards are standards.
We’re travelling across the UK meeting coffee snobs of all kinds. First up will be John, 91, who brings Grind Instant to his retirement village. Dropping tomorrow 👀

A big happy birthday to the ultimate national treasure . You may not find him in public lavatories, but can enjoy his dulcet tones in the lavatories of Grind restaurants.
If there’s a day to drink environmentally-friendly coffee, it’s today.

NEW IN AND VERY COOL 🧊 Meet our Iced Pistachio Latte, crafted with speciality-grade coffee so you can now enjoy your favourite café order on the go or at home.
It’s sweet. It’s creamy. It’s nutty. It’s a bit of an essential as soon as the temperature goes above 15 degrees.

Sometimes a coffee and a good book is all you need. Capturing another coffee moment in our Shoreditch café, we spoke to an exchange student who comes to Grind to take a break from university life and find a little peace when home feels far away. That’s what we’re here for.
09/04/2026
Time to head to your nearest Co-op because our Pistachio Coffee Pods are NOW AVAILABLE IN-STORE UNLESS THEY’RE ALREADY SOLD OUT 🎉
(We went to take a pic and they were already gone, which is marginally annoying and incredibly exciting at the same time. It feels great to be popular).

We’ve been capturing everyday coffee moments at our Shoreditch café, speaking to customers about their stories.
These two have been working together for three years, and now one is leaving to move back to Australia (a very understandable decision that no one can be blamed for). One last coffee date, for now.

WHO’S THAT POKÉMON? Yes, that’s Pikachu on our Iced Caramel Latte, now stocked in fridges in and . Oh, and that’s Eevee on our Iced Vanilla Oat Latte, also available at .

Our Social and Content Lead, Red, is a huge Pokémon fan, so he HAD to go along to our Grind x Pokémon launch party last Saturday to check it out.
We had a Pokémon photo booth, gift boxes, stickers, themed drinks (hello Iced Mango Cream Matcha) and lots of excited customers. Thanks to everyone who joined us ⚡
