Lovely food, not outstanding. The portion was reasonable, not oversized as you might expect (I'm not opposed to a big meal, but thought it's worth mentioning). Staff were kind and attentive, the manager was a little excitable, but knew the regulars and clearly cared. The restaurant was generally clean, but dark colours and patterns may have hidden a few issues, I only say this because the menus were stained and sticky and the cushions were about worn out, maybe it just needs a bit of a refresh. We were related in a quiet area away from most other patrons and it wasn't busy. No was the music too loud, it was actually quite pleasant. But a little chatter and the music just seemed to build quite quickly and it was a little difficult to have a relaxed conversation. Despite the soft furnishings I assume it's the low hard ceilings reflecting the sound.

Much better than I expected. No V60 or filter but the Black Americano was spot on, no bitterness or metallic finish.

Smooth, relatively neutral coffee. Slightly dark, but again not bitter. Would go really well in an espresso martini!

Staff are super friendly and it's a great place to sit and watch the world go by.

New favourite coffee shop in London... I keep picking places that close or move away 🤦‍♂️

Great coffee, great V60 and super lovely and knowledgeable staff. They also roast in-house and the place smells amazing. By pure coincidence, I found out the roaster is the same guy from my previous favourite (I was gutted when he left that place).

A relatively new, but really lovely little cafe selling their own roast and everything you might need for your own setup at home. Also really fantastic. If you want to learn a little bit about coffee, the staff really do care about what they do.

Looking forward to trying some food next time.
