About 44 Poets

Small coffee shop on Rutland Road in Poet's Corner, Hove. Melbourne-style coffee. They co-roast with Craft House Coffee and the Montgomery Espresso blend is what most people order. The cakes are good. The seating is limited. It's the kind of neighbourhood spot where you'll see the same faces every morning, and nobody's in a rush. Not worth a special trip across town, but if you're in this part of Hove, it's one of the better reasons to stay.
