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".“

“Very fresh! Favorite place in town👌🏻“

“Very inviting restaurant with a bright vibe. Food was excellent, high quality presentation and fresh! First time trying this restaurant and couldn't be more pleased. Freshly squeezed OJ, waffles & French toast were amazing 👏. A bit pricer than other budget restaurants.“

“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! 💚 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

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

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

“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.“

“Great ambiance, coffee, and location.“

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

“Very cute cafe! The setup has many small pieces but somehow they work together. We only got coffees / lattes. It was delicious and the service was amazing. The lady working at the register was very helpful and cheerful that made the whole experience wonderful.

When in town next, I would definitely return.“

“Nice patio ! Great for the summer“

“Gong Cha is definitely one of my favourite bubble tea places in London. With great deals on Uber Eats and good sizes for what the price is. I go all the time and everyone I bring with me always loves it too. The selection of drinks is amazing although they do runout of the toping pretty frequently. The drinks are also very customizable. Overall, I do recommend Gong Cha as a great place to get a sweet treat.“

“The place looks quite fancy so I walked in for a drink. I ordered a cold matcha, but IMHO, it needs work—it tasted like a glass of milk during my visit. I look forward to trying something else there because I don't want their matcha to cloud my judgement.

I recommend this place.“

“Food & service are always excellent.“

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

“We LOVE this location. Brody is amazing and the staff is always so accommodating. Today my son had a wild request and without hesitation they brought it to life. Hands down the best service ALWAYS“

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

“BW CAFE “Hey old friend, been too long, craving a Cruffin, but now you’re gone. A pit stop, for man ‘n beast, Fresh baked Chelsea buns go quick, more butter please; join Wortley’s wagging tongues. That Saturday night, dreams went up ‘n smoke; Fireman fought the fight, but Old South lost it’s spoke. Even now, taste your treats, “dreams shall rise again” hand up, soon back on you’re feet, community misses you, old friend.” kac“

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

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

“I had custom order donuts here for my daughter’s 7th birthday, Linda and Lori went above and beyond anything I could imagine. I originally asked for the vanilla dipped donut and if possible to have pink icing.
When I went to pick them they had hot pink icing with bunny sprinkles. Some were fully covered in sprinkles and others where only half dipped in sprinkles.
The ladies here are always a pleasure to deal with and if you’re ever in need of a donut cake I would 100% recommend them.“

“My favourite treat is their apple fritters! They are the best I’ve ever eaten 100! I also love their lattes and our dog loves the frozen doggy treats. The staff has always been very polite, helpful and professional!“

“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 💜!!!“

“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!“

“Great staff always friendly and welcoming“

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

“Lovely folks! We used the drive thru this morning with three very different breakfast orders. The server on the intercom was polite and very positive without sounding fake. Clearly the team works well because we received food and drinks in less than 5 minutes. We ordered in the drive thru which makes this all the more remarkable. Everything was well packaged and we received extra napkins with a smile. Loved this experience. Over the top.“

“Emily helped us at the Nespresso store and made our visit a great experience. She was incredibly patient, took the time to explain everything clearly, and answered all of our questions thoughtfully. We really appreciated her friendly and professional service. Thank you, Emily!“

“I was served with the nicest and kindness work her name is khushili she was very happy and out going and very motivated to help us with our questions and suggestions she was an amazing worker and absolutely very respectful I shall be coming back again , thank you so much for your help!! :)“

“I would say this is the best milk tea in oxford with a variety of drinks. Will definite go there again. The staffs are friendly and the atmosphere is chilling. I used to be there for more than 4 hours. Sometime they even play my favourite Westlife song. I heard there is one tall and friendly, handsome staff who is leaving. That's quite sad..“

“I visit this store almost every day, but I have never been treated properly before. This time, there was a new girl working at the drive-thru. I don't know her name, but she was wearing bangles. She treated me very kindly and professionally. When she went to get my food, she let me know instead of leaving me waiting at the window without saying anything. I really appreciated her polite and thoughtful customer service.“

“Starbucks is a convenient and reliable spot for coffee and quick snacks. The drinks are consistent, and the staff are usually friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is comfortable for sitting, working, or catching up with friends, and most locations are clean and well maintained. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you want a familiar coffee experience with a variety of beverages and light food options.“

“This is hands down the best Tim Hortons in London! I come here every day for a dark roast before work, it's always made correctly and it's always fresh. Hav, Shawn, and all the rest of the staff are extremely friendly, always happy to see me, and even remember my order. It's such a great experience every time and I really enjoy stopping in every morning. I go out of my way to come to this Tim's because of the staff!“

“It's the inconsistent dark roast coffee that irritates me. When it's good it's good. Not sure with all the automated coffee machines why they are not all good all time. DR are either too thin or burnt.
Food is pretty consistent.“

“Starbucks is a reliable coffee spot that you can pretty much count on no matter where you go. The drinks are consistent and easy to customize, whether you like something simple like a latte or one of the seasonal specials. It’s convenient for grabbing coffee quickly, and the menu has enough variety that most people can find something they like.

The atmosphere is one of the best parts. Most locations are clean, modern, and comfortable enough to sit down and study, work, or meet up with friends. It can get busy at times, but it still feels like a decent place to hang out for a while.

Food options are basic but useful if you just need a snack or something small on the go. Nothing really stands out, but it does the job.

The main downside is the price, since it’s more expensive than a lot of other coffee places or making coffee at home. Some locations also get pretty crowded during peak hours, which can make it harder to find seating.

Overall, Starbucks is a solid, dependable coffee shop that works well for convenience, consistency, and a comfortable place to spend time, even if it’s not the cheapest option.“

“First time visiting the great Canadian bagel and I was a bit confused regarding my order, than one of the staff member Jean jumped in and she suggested me some really good options which I really liked so yeah a good place for a quick snack.“

“Awesome store Staff are always friendly and fast“

“This was the BEST bubble tea I've ever had! I had the fruit fusion tea with tapioca and it was delish! It had tiny pieces of FRESH apples and oranges in it. I would definitely recommend this drink and can't wait to try more! Great customer service at the American Dream location in NJ! Definitely 5 stars!“

“This place is great, very friendly and efficient service. There was an issue at the till and the supervisor came right away to fix it and was very pleasant doing so. Got my food fast once it was ordered, great place for a Tim’s stop.“

“I went in for a birthday drink and asked the recommendation of the barista for a hot drink. She recommended this and I can honestly say I don’t think I’ve had a tastier drink!! This coming from the girl who has tried to dupe a smoked butterscotch latte with caramel and vanilla shots. Anyways. I want to say a huge thank you to the barista both at the cash who suggested it as well as the other one who was so nice and wished me a happy birthday.“
