☕ You asked… and we listened! 🙌
After requests from our customers, we’re excited to introduce two new additions to the Shadow & Steam menu:

🌸 Classic Chai Latte
🍫 Chocolate Chai Latte

Made using Chai by Mira, they’re warming, full of flavour and perfect for when you fancy something a little different from your usual coffee.
Available from Shadow & Steam from next week!

Come and give one a try and let us know which is your favourite — Classic or Chocolate? ☕❤️

☕ A HUGE THANK YOU! ❤️

What a weekend for Shadow & Steam!

From Great Oldbury, to Rodborough, Stroud Farmers’ Market and finishing up at Bisley Music Festival — we just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by the hatch and supported us over the weekend. 🙌

One of the nicest things for us at the moment is hearing so many of you tell us how much you’re enjoying the coffee. ☕❤️ We’re still learning, improving and finding our feet, so getting such lovely feedback genuinely means a lot to us.

It’s also incredibly encouraging to be invited back to events and shows we’ve attended, not only because of what we serve, but because of the way we look after and interact with our customers. That’s exactly what we want Shadow & Steam to be about — great coffee, friendly faces and a proper warm welcome at the hatch.

We’re really grateful for every coffee bought, every recommendation, every bit of feedback and every event organiser who puts their trust in us.

Thank you for the continued support of our little coffee van. 🖤☕🚐

See you at the hatch sometime soon!
