By 1633, Ottoman coffeehouses numbered around 600. That year, Sultan Murad IV attempted to ban them for their role in stirring unrest, but the ban failed and coffee culture spread westwards. The London Stock Exchange (1680) and Lloyd’s of London (1688) are among the many notable intuitions that began as coffeehouses.

@johncamkiran this is pretty cool. I found some coffeehouses in Vienna (which still retain its 18th/19th century roots/vibes). I see your based in London. Are there any in 🇬🇧 you'd recommend?
