Our Story

Our brand story is more than a narrative, it's a promise. A promise that each visit to Être is an opportunity to seize the day, an invitation to partake in a blend of self-discovery and community. It's an ode to those who dare to dream, who dare to be present, and who dare to create connections that transcend the surface.

Être is a philosophy to embrace the present moment, to cherish oneself whilst also embracing boldness. With every encounter, every sip, and every exchange, Être reaffirms its commitment to crafting a haven where moments are treasured, dreams are ignited, and connections are woven into the fabric of experience.

Join us at Être, and let every visit be an opportunity to savour the present, connect with others, and indulge in the finest coffee and artisanal delights. We look forward to being a part of your daily ritual, a respite from your busy day, and a place where you can simply... be.

Our Values

  • Quality is rooted in everything we do. Step inside and you'll be enveloped in an atmosphere of cosiness and elegance. Beyond that, tantalise your taste buds with an array of delectable treats, from flaky croissants and buttery pastries to hearty sandwiches and, of course, exceptional coffee. We relentlessly pursue excellence because we believe our customers deserve nothing less.

  • Être is more than a space; it’s an experience. We consider every element throughout the space that the experience of the space is equally as important as the food & drink. We want people to remember the space as an art piece.

  • We cherish inspiration. We are constantly absorbing spaces and experiences. Along the way, this has evolved into an ‘Être way of thinking’. The idea of valuing new experiences and taking inspiration from the ordinary, the extraordinary and everything in between. This has allowed us to collectively forge something new: Être.

  • We love to go against the grain and be unique. We noticed an area deprived of coffee lifestyle and we acted on it. We weren’t scared. Instead, we were motivated to bring change, purpose and individuality to the area and create a coffee lifestyle scene.

Our Way of Thinking

At Être, we extend an invitation beyond mere sips; we invite you to savour moments. Amid a world in perpetual motion, we encourage you to embrace a pause that transcends brevity – a conscious act of self-care. Beyond coffee's embrace lies a nurturing of your well-being, a prelude to facing life's demands. Our air is alive with the enticing aroma of our brews, while our ambiance whisks you from the mundane into sensory vitality. As you step into Être, you're not entering just a café, you're embarking on the day's journey, energized by the present. Within the echo of a breath, you're reminded that today belongs to you. Your aspirations, your dreams, beckon before you. But before the rush, there's a pause. "But first, Être" resonates. We embody the excitement that precedes any journey. We serve as the serene prologue, preparing you for the day's symphony. Our space is for high achievers, dreamers, and fearless explorers. Authentic connections thrive, stories unfurl, and dreams are exchanged at our tables. Être is more than an idea; it's a reality where moments come alive, connections flourish, and the essence of being is celebrated.

“Être is the prerequisite for success and high achievement. Come as you are and let our coffee and artisanal treats elevate you to do great things.”
