Cafe Rouge, Brighton, UK

Damn Fine Joe does not just seek out the coffee boutiques and station stalls it gives restaurants and hotels equal time to be raised up or cast down.

Cafe Rouge always supplies a fine feed and on visiting recently I also treated myself to their black Americano. It was a modest to poor effort firmly placing it in the drinkable but indifferent category of coffee. It certainly had strength but had been over espressed possibly with stale beans providing a far too bitter fore and after taste to the proceedings.

• Black Americano
• Very strong
• Drinkable but far too bitter
• No Crema
• Overly large mug
• £1.95

Not very good but by no means terrible.
