Although the exposed brick, naked light bulbs and polished concrete finishes aren't exactly new, Spout has added a dash of cheeky charm to this often sleepy strip, and the purpose-built wooden benches are funky. Friendly and adept baristas serve up Allpress Supremo blend, a short black strong and bold with toffee hints, served with a palate-cleansing piccolo of soda water. The bustling younger crowd enjoys a menu with a Middle Eastern kick - the lamb shawarma is a flavour sensation that fizzes with intensity, while the pastrami sanga is a doorstop of moist meat, vinegary sauerkraut and plus-sized pickles.
