Forum is a café in Śródmieście. Alongside the coffee it serves its own baking and breakfasts of its own devising, and its shop sells Forum posters, bags and porcelain.

Every month Forum’s Ilona and Sławek pick two coffees from European roasters, send them to subscribers with brewing instructions and introduce each pair with notes on the farm and the cup. The 2026 boxes have carried coffees from Koppi, The Barn, Coffee Collective, Standout, Drop Coffee, Doubleshot, La Cabra, Five Elephant and Prolog, among others.

October’s pair was a washed Caturra from El Porvenir, a five-hectare farm in Huila run by Sandra Milena and Hector Mora whose whole harvest Koppi has bought for several years, and a natural Bourbon from Finca Himalaya in El Salvador, roasted by The Barn. At Finca Himalaya the trees grow and the cherries dry in the shade of pines and cypresses.
