This “buzzy” trio (with live jazz at its Gwydir Street branch) has grown over a dozen years since founder Simon Fraser returned to his hometown from Melbourne, bringing a taste for Antipodean coffee culture. “All three branches including their roastery in Shepreth offer excellent coffee and light food, but their bread is the main event – it’s world standard!”

“Great coffee, great brunch sandwiches and great jazz music” are the name of the game at this coffee shop trio with venues in Gwydir Street (music), Trumpington Street and in the village of Shepreth south of Cambridge, where the in-house roastery and bakery are based – along with a pizza oven. Founder Simon Fraser fell for the Antipodean coffee culture while living in Melbourne, and returned to his home town to launch Hot Numbers in 2011.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
