“WHEN NEWGROUND SUGGESTED A 90S THEMED LATTE ART THROWDOWN I REALLY HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL THAT WOULD EVEN ENTAIL, NOR DID I KNOW IF FOLKS WOULD TURN UP TO SUCH A THING ON A MONDAY NIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST – BUT SHOWS WHAT I KNOW!”
“Apparently it takes having a DJ BLASTING 90s hip-hop and RnB bangers, a PIZZA HUT delivery midway like a high school pizza party, CASIO WATCHES as prizes and BUCKET HATS galore. Honestly this was one of the best coffee events I’ve been to, and a lot of that comes down to it being an event that even Tim from the hardware store is going to want to attend.
TRUE INCLUSIVITY plus totally AMAZING VIBES makes for great events and great engagement – and New Ground gave us all of this to work with.”

Having been involved with plenty of latte art throwdowns in the past I can honestly say this was something special.
“From the amazing NewGround Team to the healthy mix of local and travelling baristas, from the raffle to the beer kegs, it was a chilled, fun evening. Also how do I not mention that this was all on a Monday in August. KILLER WAY TO START THE WEEK.”
Tommy Loosley / Victoria Arduino
All money raised from the raffle is going to ZUKUKA BORA COFFEE CO in Uganda. An amazing coffee company that puts farmers and their families at the heart of what they do. Their motivation is to see their farmers properly rewarded for what their efforts and to see the pride in their work restored. The contribution will go towards helping with the recent flash-flooding in the area.
SUCH A WORTHY CAUSE.
WE LOVED HOSTING THIS EVENT. CONGRATS TO MARKÉTA FROM SOCIETY CAFE IN BRISTOL WHO WAS CROWNED OUR CHAMP.
GOOD VIBES. GREAT POURS.
More events to come / stay tuned
