  • "Exceptionally mediocre coffee at inflated prices."
  • "The coffee is automatic so this instantly drops the quality."
  • "Paid 2£ extra for Peruvian blend. One of the most bodiless and bland coffees I had in a long time. Very watery."

  • "Comfortable seating and good decor (loved the tall bamboo shoots in vases)."
  • "A very clean and spacious, artisanal style coffee house not far from London Bridge."
  • "The interior is spacious and very modern. But still comfortable and welcoming."

Cons:

  • "The formation of the room is a little bit strange and you can’t completely enjoy your coffee."
  • "Some tables are right behind the door, some in a narrow corridor…"
  • "The interior had more to ask for, although it was quite cozy, but with a large opening to the mall or something in the back that lowered the coziness."
  • "They kept the lights on on the other side of the shop which was strange. Actually, thinking about it, no I wouldn't go back! Don't want to be left in the dark again!"
