Incredible experience overall. The coffees were exceptionally brewed with a lot of attention to how we taste and enjoy coffee on a sensory level. Beautifully designed interior, and excellent food to pair with the rare and interesting profile coffees too. Phenomenal team of baristas here!

One of my favourite coffee shops in London for sure. Have been there 3 or 4 times and never get disappointed. The shop is decorated with great attention to detail. Nice place to sit and chill. The matcha terrine is 10/10, highly recommended. Coffee is brewed professionally. Always ask for recommendations if not sure. The baristas are all very nice to tell the coffee flavour notes and give recommendations so I can choose based on what I like. Great experience overall!

What a lovely Monday afternoon with great coffee. The front of house were very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. The guy with glasses who explained the coffee patiently. He did fantastic service to each client. The young lady was also professional. They both were calm and chill during the busy period. I had Panama coffee combo. I usually don’t like blend coffee. But this one certainly blend very well. Nice set up as well. The only downside was the cake didn’t taste good. Overall, nice coffee and fantastic service. It was a great coffee experience. They also have great and wide selection for pour-over. Will be back for them.
