Our story
The Van.
The Fells.
The Coffee.
False Summit started with a dream, to be serving coffee and cake, paired with mountains and lakes, starting its life in 1970, 'florence' has taken on a new lease of life, providing a vintage twist on the ever popular coffee pop ups in hard to reach locations
We work with small-batch roasters, dial in every shot, and take the whole operation to wherever the views are worth it. The Lake District deserves better coffee. We're working on it.
