50 Best Coffee Shops in London

“Went here the first time on a recommendation from a friend. We had been meeting other places before but I did not like the atmosphere at the last place we went. Came to Asmara and it was lovely. The atmosphere feels clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, really great vibes! In my opinion this is the nicest coffee place in London if you want to meet a friend to "catch up".“

“This is a take away place. Not sit down. There is a bench to sit and wait for your order. The atmosphere is really cute though. Clean. Service was friendly and polite. I ordered the zaatar sandwich which was delicious. Vanilla latte with oat milk which is also one of the best latte's I've ever had. This was my first time here and I definitely will be back to try some other food options and coffee. They also have various teas which is great. Cookies and croissants!!“

“Wow! just tried this coffee for the first time... We will so be back! French Mocha is amazing🥰 If ya like Dark rich coffee... This is it! 💚 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The. BEST. Sourdough. Bread. Period. Everything else is good as well but the bread is amazing.“

“Cutest little cafe with the best coffee, pastries, and service! 10/10 recommend!“

“This is our new favorite place to go whether for breakfast or lunch. Our first experience was with Dani and having her serve us definitely made us want to come back She is everything a waitress should be and feel she even puts a little special effort in. She already knows exactly what we want to order after just a view visits which was extremely impressive as you have so many customers. I don’t usually write reviews but I just couldn’t let this one pass she definitely deserves 5 stars“

“These are by far the best donuts in London. Just brought a pack up North to family and they were the best they'd had too. We had the lemon meringue and the passionfruit raspberry. Perfectly fluffy, tangy, sweet and mouth-watering.“

“Nice patio ! Great for the summer“

“Coffee and baked treat. Alway great food. awesome vibes. and BIKES!“

“Commonwealth Coffee has their game dialed in. The vibe is sharp without being pretentious, and the coffee? Easily some of the best in the city. You can tell they actually care about quality…beans are spot on, the milk is done right, and every cup comes out consistent. Service is fast, friendly, and on point, which is rare these days. This place isn’t trying too hard…they just know what they’re doing, and they do it well.“

“We love Loco! Especially the South Location, good vibes and lots of seating“

“Great ambiance, coffee, and location.“

“great service!!! friendly staff. lots of product.“

“The staff are friendly, consistent, and they know how to keep things moving even during the busy rush. The service feels welcoming. It’s the little things, like being greeted with a smile, that make it my go-to spot every week day morning. Thank you to the whole team for starting my day off right!“

“Stopped by late in the day, but the service was extremely fast.
We ended up getting a Matcha Latte, Black Americano and Ube Cake Cup!

If you like a strong/bold americano, then the blend is perfect for you. Would love to sit in and try the food next time.“

“Nice clean place to enjoy coffee & good eats. Friendly staff. Lots of free parking. Drive thru. Nice place to meet friends.“

“went to the singing chef for the first time this morning and it was great! our waiter Brody was quick and friendly and very attentive! the food was rly good, the home fries especially! would def recommend! (hyde park location)“

“Kind of difficult to rate atmosphere considering this location is located in the mall. However, the front staff appear to be organised, moreso than other locations.
They must have a new baker. The baked goods are much better in texture and taste.“

“Food & service are always excellent.“

“I use this location as it is on my way to work They are always very friendly and I always get my order fast“

“One of the few remaining Starbucks locations that didn't sell the tables and chairs to prevent people from socializing in London. Fantastic staff that greet and remember who you are before you respond. The drink mixes are consistent and thus keep me returning. This is one of my top favorite Starbucks locations out of 30+ that I frequent.“

“Thanks to the whole staff at Starbucks today for all the positive energy towards my girls came in for after grad picture drinks!! Especially Haley thank you 💜!!!“

“🤘🥰Very good staff beautiful place“

“Great staff always friendly and welcoming“

“Jason Jason Jason…the manager here is the most caring barista I have yet to meet. He works from his heart and works as if someone is watching him. Came in today to find him cleaning the glass of the door entrance. Literally the man who keeps me coming back to this location. Starbucks, promote this man!!“

“Very busy location, but great service. A coffee express line would make all the difference!“

“The Vegan donuts literally melt in your mouth! So fluffy and an amazing selection of toppings. The staff were absolutely delightful“

“I’ve worked a few hours from this location today and last week, due to tech issues at my home. All of the breakfast and lunch items I’ve tried so far were great. The store and washrooms are tidy; service is good. It seems like a super popular location for high school break times! My only suggestion is to turn the music down a bit… it’s a little noisy inside.“

“Beautiful layout, but difficult intersection for drivers. Only way in is when your going North on wonderland or West on Commissioner Rd, but that being said, it's still a 5-star location. It's huge on the inside wou big floor to ceiling windows. Super comfy lounge chairs and tables and bar tables for laptop working days.“

“I go here every day for my nitro cold brew today I went back in because the coffee tasted off and they literally changed the keg 3 times I felt bad and told them it's not that big of an issue but they insisted and made sure I got a proper tasting coffee service 10/10 the team at the location is made up of an all-star line up. Thanks guys your the best!“

“I normally wouldn’t review a big chain brand, however this Starbucks sticks out to me, not because of their menu, but because of the atmosphere while I was in today. Not only was the staff friendly and easy to work with prepping my order timely, and the music was playing an artist not many know of, but is a staple in my family. Overall just a lovely experience.“

“The Buzz Breakfast bagel and coffee were great!! Love the look and environment of the restaurant, glad they opened in downtown London! :)“

“The past three visits, we have been helped by Emily. She has been absolutely wonderful every time! She remembers us and some of the coffees that we like. Twice she has recommended us a new coffee to try and gave us a sample (which we have then purchased each time). Today we came in for two sleeves of solelio and pistachio, but she talked us into getting a case of pistachio to stock up before it’s gone. Then we got three other sleeves of coffee that she had recommended to us! She was also so kind today and waved the bag fee as she had talked us into more coffee and we already had a lot of stuff with a baby and a full stroller. So appreciated!“

“We picked up a special drink after a meal at the Korean restaurant next door. Kid was a bit idecisive but staff rolled with it with grace. I got an Early Gray Milk Tea with minimal sweetness and it was perfect. Very good. Kid got a matcha thing. They said it was good but....I mean, it was matcha. :) Bonus was we got a Diwali discount. I really enjoy this chain and we will be back when we return to the area.“

“This Tim Hortons does not have the washrooms locked which I appreciate, and they were clean. The guy at cashier was responsive. The food was hot and good. There were some crumbs on bar table I was seated at. The food was a tad slow but not a bad speed.“

“I come to this location a lot with my friends and family, and had never once been disappointed! The hot chocolate is absolutely delectable and I love the honey cruller doughnut! It's not usually busy and The service is very good. I love the little seating area and it's kept clean most of the time.“

“Simply Columbian Coffee Criollo blend is an incredibly flavourful medium roast coffee that hits all the right tones on the pallet while providing a smooth caffeine boost. It is a wonderful Arabica bean that coffee connoisseurs will enjoy to the last drop!“

“The lady with the Ariel mask and tattoo was the most friendly barista I’ve ever met! She was so talkative, helpful and even loved on my new dog while we were waiting for our drinks in the drive thru. I am a Starbucks partner in a different city and I was blown away by the kindness of this partner! ❤️“

“Awesome store Staff are always friendly and fast“

“Great staff and excellent customer service.. Keep it up guys... Always busy but fresh food. Morning staff are great 👍🏻“

“My brother and I stopped by while we were in Loblaws. The single worker was chipper and got us our orders quickly. Our drinks were hot and well-made, although I think their prices are a bit too high. The sitting area was clean, however, it wasn't the coziest. Being in a grocery store and all.

Parking: This Starbucks is part of Loblaws, so the Loblaws parking lot would be your ideal option.“

“My go to starbucks! All the workers are soo amazing and so kind! I look forward to coming here every morning to grab a coffee and say Hello to all of them! Shout out to Tyler for setting such a friendly environment everyday! My Vanilla ice coffee is ALWAYS perfect! (Thank you Kim!)“

“Pretty standard quality bubble tea beverage. We picked Gong Cha because they have coffee & tea combination drinks. A lot of bubble tea places do not offer coffee selections. This location was clean, but small (do not recall any seating available when we visited).“

“Average Starbucks.

When I went they were sold out of almost all the food options and several of the drinks. But the staff were very friendly and offered some alternatives.

Parking: Paid parking in the lot to the northwest“

“Great turkey bacon club. Yum yum“

“Most of my experiences here have been good but recently my orders have been getting messed up. Last week I ordered an iced capp and a caramelized onion and parmesan savory pinwheel instead I got an iced capp and roasted red pepper and Swiss savory pinwheel, and today I ordered 1 medium iced capp, 1 bacon farmer's wrap, and 1 caramelized onion and parmesan savory pinwheel. The employee who input my order entered 1 medium iced capp, 1 caramelized onion and parmesan savory pinwheel, and 2 bacon farmer's wraps. I brought it to the attention and got a refund for the extra bacon farmer's wrap they added to my order but this wouldn't have happened if the order was entered correctly“

“Yes the service was very good and the food was prepared properly and the cashier was polite and courteous.“

“It's a coffee shop like all the rest there is Donuts and food it's ok for a A Tim Horton“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I want to take a moment to recognize one of the amazing team members at this Tim Hortons. Mattgew always greets customers with a warm smile and a friendly attitude. His customer service is truly outstanding — he goes above and beyond to make sure we’re happy, and he often offers us great options with kindness and care. It’s rare to find someone so genuinely welcoming and attentive. Thank you for making every visit such a positive experience. You truly make a difference!👌“

“Friendly staff, generally fast service makes ideal stop before work.“
