Viral King's Cross matcha cafe Frothee is heading to Covent Garden

Almost a year after she opened her first matcha cafe Frothee, in King's Cross, Hanife Hursit and her dad Ram are gearing up for expansion. Hanife's TikTok chronicling of the opening of their first business turned Frothee into a viral hit. There were queues around the block when it first opened, and there were high profile collaborations with Palestinian-Jordanian singer Zeyne to keep it in the spotlight.

With all that in mind, it's probably no surprise that the father/daughter duo are readying to open their second cafe. This time they're moving into central London, to Covent Garden. They've taken over an old copy shop to turn it into a cafe serving up their signature hand-whisked matchas, coffees with cold foam and cinnamon buns.

News of a second Frothee instantly whipped their many fans into a frenzy of excitement, so you can pretty much expect crazy queues when this new cafe opens too.
