Every day Espresso Coffee: Glen Lyon & guests Also: Meals, beans, smoothies

Coolness: Great coffee meets great hearts - making a big contribution to their community

---

Zest (4♥), in bustling historic St Andrews, is a much-frequented cafe with a broad menu.

Customers place their order at the counter and have a choice of espresso-based coffees using local roaster Glen Lyon as well as guests.  Owner Lisa Cathro is a highly accomplished coffee professional who has trained up a crack team. But Lisa and her team also make a bigger contribution to their community than delivering great coffee. They also offer work placements for people who are disadvantaged or need extra support to learn and work - and encourage and train others to do the same.

To accompany your coffee there are light and big breakfasts, soups, rolls, baguettes, bagels, salads, waffles and scones, plus more. Smoothies and juices also feature prominently, so if  a Raspberry Bomb, Mango Tango, or Razamataz sound like you, you're in luck.

Tea lovers have a choice of loose leaf teas - Scottish or specialty - so you'll not have a tea bag waved in front of you.

The front of Zest is set up for 'alfresco' with ample tables and chairs spilling out on to the pavement. They've also got a section out the back if you're after a hide-away.

All in all, we're super happy that Zest are leading the charge on specialty coffee in St Andrews!
