Welcome to The Hatch in Leigh Old Town – where an old foundry, a vintage train carriage, and great coffee collide to create something pretty special.

Yep, you read that right. We've taken a slice of Southend's history (an actual pier train carriage) and turned it into your new favourite hangout. It's quirky, it's cosy, and it's definitely not your average coffee shop. Whether you're heading to the beach or just taking a stroll, start your day with our perfect morning caffeine fixes, wind down with afternoon drinks, or grab a pizza as the sun sets – we've got you covered from coffee to cocktails. And bring your four-legged friends along – we're big dog people here.

This isn't just another café. It's a place where stories happen, where friends meet, and where the past meets present in the most delicious way possible. Whether you're catching up with mates, working on your laptop, or just need a really good coffee, you'll find your spot here. So come on in. We've saved you a seat.

66 High Street, Leigh-on-Sea, United Kingdom

A short walk from the beach, the Broadway, and Leigh on Sea train station, The Hatch is where good times, community, and unforgettable moments come together by the sea.
