I live in the town but only visited Espresso Head a few weeks ago, what a fool! It's quite easy to miss as it's not on the main High Street and is only a small shop, but it's well worth seeking out and visiting. A wide variety of coffees are on offer, including hot chocolate and some teas I believe, along with syrups and dairy milk alternatives. I'm a big fan of a mocha, and can honestly say that the mocha from Espresso Head is by far the best I've had in a long time and even better than your High Street coffee chains. I recently tried their Amaretto latte which was really nice too. Prices are reasonable and you save 20p if you take in your own cup. There is some seating inside but not much....
My 12 year old and I decided to stop for a hot drink while waiting for the library to open. Seems like it’s the only coffee place in Leighton Buzzard that is open at 8:30 in the morning(they open at 8). It was very cute and quaint. The coffee is very fresh and my son loved his Hot Chocolate. My son has Aspergers and has sensory issues with smell, sound etc and he felt VERY comfortable here so that is a major plus as it’s hard for me to find places I can take him without a meltdown. The owner/barista was very nice and welcoming. We sat inside (place for about 5-6 people to sit which worked for us at the time). Lots of people were in and out with their coffees and dogs are welcome too. The cof...
I am a huge coffee lover, with four different ways to make coffee at home (not including instant coffee, but V60s and drip kettles). I was very impressed with Espresso Head. I loved the Icelandic theme, and the flat white I ordered was perfect, made with a light roasted espresso bean. An added bonus was that they had doughnuts from SAY Doughnuts! The barista was friendly and talkative, and all necessary precautions were taken with social distancing, screens, and contactless payment. If you live in Leighton Buzzard, you are lucky to have this place for your coffee fix. I even changed my route just to visit this amazing micro cafe!
I absolutely loved this Icelandic espresso bar! I was in town for work and from my instincts I chose this place to get my daily espresso. I was very impressed! Icelandic coffee house. they are therefore specialized in a lighter roast of beans. I ordered my usual espresso and it was made for me immediately. the personal was very friendly . the interieur is well designed with a modern European espresso bar. the ethos and the brand statement are written on 1 the walls and it is a nice note to penetrate while you drink. they also have a selection of tasty tasty items available.

This small independent Nordic inspired coffee shop is a real change from the generic chains and beats the other local coffee shops hands down! There are lots of choices of quality fair-trade coffee and teas. The very talented owner offers his stunning photos of Iceland for sale. You can also buy a lovely range of Omnom Icelandic chocolate too! Chic, bang up to date and delicious!!
I visited this place on Wednesday to pick up two coffees to go, and it was a pleasant surprise to see that they were open, even if only part-time. The coffees were absolutely delicious and satisfying; I had forgotten how good they were. I couldn't replicate this quality of coffee at home during the lockdown. I definitely plan on returning soon.
Visit regularly on my way into town, normally go for a flat white but decided to give the iced coffee a try in this melting heat. I’m now a convert! Iced coffee all the way. Small, but perfectly formed Espresso Head is always a treat. Knowledgeable, friendly baristas, cozy interior and good prices I highly recommend!
This is the top spot for coffee in Leighton Buzzard. Currently offering takeaway only during the lockdown. Skip the big chains and support local businesses.

Visited a few times but left very unimpressed with the quality of coffee. Very pretentious too. At least the lights a nice. One chap very rude.
the coffee is absolutely delicious and the service is super friendly the best coffee in the city would come back to everyone.
