We're building more than a coffee shop, but coffee comes first
VAXX is a coffee shop in Battersea for people with places to go, ideas to build and lives already in motion. We serve genuinely good coffee with a reliable service, then add the space, energy and community that can turn a daily coffee run into the best part of your day.
Built by people who know their stuff
VAXX is Vas & Giuseppe — two friends who spent years working behind the scenes in coffee before it had a front door: learning the product, supplying businesses and understanding what keeps people coming back.
The answer wasn't complexity. It was quality you can taste, service you can rely on and a place that feels good to walk into. So we decided to bring it all together and build the coffee shop we wanted to visit ourselves.

Why VAXX feels different
Made with an entrepreneur's mindset
VAXX was created by entrepreneurs, which means we know ambition rarely looks polished. It looks like early starts, late finishes, changing the plan, trying again and ordering another coffee.
That's why we're creating a place that fits real life: quick when you're rushing, welcoming when you have time and always ready with a good cup.
The coffee has to be worth the trip
We take the details seriously so you don't have to. From the coffee we choose to the way each drink is made, our focus is simple: consistency, flavour and a cup you'll want again tomorrow. No lectures. No unnecessary theatre. Just people who know coffee and care about serving it well.
A clubhouse, without the club rules
The best coffee shops do more than make drinks. They become part of people's routines — a meeting point, a reset button and sometimes the place where an idea finally clicks. Not a members-only space and not a room full of forced networking. Just an open, upbeat place where interesting people naturally cross paths.
Battersea first. Then, who knows?
VAXX starts in Battersea: local, energetic and full of people making things happen. We want to earn our place in the neighbourhood one coffee, one conversation and one familiar face at a time. The ambition is bigger, but this is where the story begins.
Bakery plays support
Alongside the coffee, you'll find a focused bakery selection chosen for busy breakfasts, slower mornings and well-earned afternoon breaks. Good food, no fuss — exactly as it should be.
