OUR STORY
Nkora began in 2015 when Nancy and Emile, living above a small empty unit on Hackney Road, decided to open the kind of coffee shop they wished existed - simple, welcoming, and quietly considered.
Two years later, they opened a second space in Cambridge Heath, followed by St Albans in 2018, where they now live with their three daughters. What started as a neighbourhood project has grown steadily - always with care, and always independently.
