Here's what AllPress have to say about their Lates:
Allpress Lates was hatched over a few wines on one of many evenings spent in the garden at the roastery. We came up with our ultimate wishlist of creatives and innovators who would be involved and the line-up has blown us away. It’s a privilege to work with such an exciting group of restaurants, bars, bakers and chefs on this series of events. We’re delighted to share our thirtieth birthday celebrations with them.
