"A Coffee Epiphany"
In the spring of 2024, we set out on what was meant to be a quick weekend escape to London. After exploring the lively Borough Market, our plans to continue sightseeing took a delightful detour. Tucked just beside London Bridge, we stumbled upon a small, unassuming coffee shop—a hidden gem we hadn't planned for. Little did we know, that spontaneous stop would become the highlight of our entire trip.
"Wonderful coffee shop right by Borough Market, first class coffee and staff"
Popped in for a wonderful coffee and a cinnamon bun—and both were absolutely spot on. This is a very pleasant coffee shop to sit and relax, with great music playing in the background. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, making it a perfect pause from the bustle of the nearby market. The staff were excellent—friendly, efficient, and clearly cared about creating a good experience. Highly recommended if you're heading to Borough Market or just passing through London Bridge.
"Ganz okay"
The coffee here is truly delicious—no complaints on that front. However, the staff’s attitude left a lot to be desired. As a tourist, I felt talked down to when placing my order. I asked for a caramel latte, which is clearly listed on the menu, but the barista responded by recommending I go to Starbucks instead. It was an unnecessary and condescending comment that left a bad impression. A good coffee shop experience should be welcoming to all, including visitors. Sadly, this one missed the mark.
"Overpriced miniature latte"
I was shocked at how expensive the latte was—especially considering how tiny it turned out to be. Definitely not worth the price. It felt like a total rip-off. To make things worse, there’s no seating available, so you can’t even enjoy your overpriced drink in comfort. I wouldn’t recommend this place, especially with so many better coffee options nearby.
