Ambiance and Location

Pros:

  • "Small but airy, especially in the nice sunny months when they leave both doors thrown open to the sidewalk."
  • "Such a lovely place in a fantastic neighborhood."
  • "This place is not only perfect from the decor, but the food is also amazing."
  • "It ticks all the boxes - papers freely available, a large table stacked with croissants and a brunch menu that offers fish finger sandwiches."
  • "Excellent location and space."
  • "This cafe is so gorgeous and cosy that you'd never think it was a few minutes away from the ugliness of Victoria station."
  • "Very cozy coffee house in the middle of Belgravia with a beautiful autumn decoration."

Cons:

  • "Very few indoor seats with the large round table being hogged by three people using the empty spaces for their bags."
  • "The establishment is quite small so there may be a wait."
  • "Inside there are only a handful of seats and the high stools are so uncomfortable that I moved."
  • "The only downside is the very limited seating space inside."
  • "Tiny, basic place with not many seats, but a cosy feel."
  • "No one suggested to get rid of the remaining bees that were clearly disturbing the 6 other customers inside."
  • "Only complaint is that there is no wifi available so not a great WFH place."

Value

Pros:

  • "The prices are normal."
  • "Good value for breakfast if you stay in the hotels nearby."
  • "Being situated in the wealthy part of Belgravia the products are appropriately priced so don't expect large quantity for the price, you are buying quality."
  • "Good coffee and delicious food."
  • "Worth a visit and more than just a grab and go."
  • "Glad to find this place in the neighborhood of my airbnb!!"
  • "Great choice of menu and fresh produce with good quality ingredients used."

Cons:

  • "Choose any other place: Baker & Spice, La Bottega - way better value."
  • "Expensive smoothie prices, with the 12.5% service charge should you wish to sit."
  • "Food price is different between eat in and take away, but still charge extra service fee for no service provided..."
  • "In the end, I was charged £12.60 for a flat white and a 200 ml bottle of still water."
  • "Very expensive too £4 for a small bowl of avocado and £7 for a smoothie."
  • "Thanks to the Pimlico location it's a little on the pricey side - how tea and a fish finger sandwich comes to over £7 baffles me."
  • "The only downside is the prices of their seasonal/winter hot chocolates; it felt unreasonable to pay 5 pounds for a hot chocolate."
