  • "The coffee and turmeric latte are amazing (and very creamy)."
  • "My coffee (oat milk mocha) has to be one of the best I’ve had."
  • "I'm an Aussie gal that's just moved to London and I've heard how hard it is to find good coffee and can confirm this place serves good quality coffee!"
  • "The coffee is delicious, but the genuine friendliness of the staff takes this place to another level!"

Cons:

  • "Not so great coffee, honestly don't know how the rating of this place could be so high."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Wide range of cakes and wraps etc to pick from."

Cons:

  • "Some of the best service in London, the owner is always attentive and friendly. The food and coffee are yummy but at decent prices."
  • "Very disappointed food. It was one of my favorite spot to go for an easy lunch until recently. It seems like they have changed the whole staff team/kitchen."
