This specialty coffee shop offers a laid-back vibe with tasteful music and neutral tones, creating an artistic yet relaxed atmosphere. Known for its gluten-free and vegan options, it welcomes guests with friendly, knowledgeable staff and a comfortable setting perfect for lingering.
Finally what I was looking for, a bar that makes you feel at home. Super friendly friendly staff, really top music, not to mention the desserts and the cafeteria, all really delicious. I've been here working for about two hours, without anyone complaining about having occupied the table for so long, which is in fact something many people do. I will definitely go back, it could finally be what I define in a city: "my bar". Gluten-free and vegan options.

What a great find!
" Darkroom Espresso" is tucked away off the beaten track in Swindon, at 11 Faringdon Road, bottom of town. "Well worth a visit". Just park in the multi storey car park (£2 for four hours) between certain hours!
The ambiance is a lovely mix of artistic, intelligent, simplistic and relaxed mood. The staff are all very polite, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their products, service is great.
The sourdough bread sandwiches tasty,light and delicious, the coffee smooth and the chocolate brownie to "die for" (not in the literal sense but velvety, light yet beautifully rich without feeling you can't finish the whole piece and maybe more! They also make "gluten free" cakes.
Seek them out, and give them the support they clearly deserve, I only wish I knew about them sooner.
You could start and finish your day drinking their lovely coffee and fabulous selection of teas.
Open 8 am to 5.30 pm.
