Best independent spot for a winter caffeine fix? I think I've found my new favourite!

I finally made it over to two gingers in paragon arcade this morning and I think I’m in love. The scandinavian style interior is so cosy, and the coffee itself was genuinely one of the best cups I’ve had outside of leeds or manchester. It was such a great atmosphere compared to the usual chains. With the cold weather properly hitting us now, I'm looking for more local favourites! Where else in the city, especially in the old town or newland avenue areas, has that perfect combination of seriously good coffee and a warm, independent atmosphere? I need your best recommendations for a winter warm up!
