The cup

Founded in 2013 by Shawn Barber and Chris Onton, Companion operates from a counter inside Voo Store, the influential concept store on Oranienstrasse in Kreuzberg. Companion serves single-origin espresso and filter to the neighbourhood's design and fashion community, with a precision-focused approach to the cup that has made it a fixture of the Oranienstrasse scene.
