Darkroom Espresso is a  Specialty Coffee shop in the centre of Swindon, in the old Railway village, that opened in September 2014 and is now owned & run by local barista Stephen Jordan .

Stephen was already a long serving member of staff at Darkroom before taking on ownership in March 2019.

The name of Darkroom Espresso comes from the idea that making coffee requires the same craft, skill and care as developing a photo in a darkroom.
