Never noticed this place until a few weeks ago, I think I’ve been missing out. Calm and relaxing space near the museum with a lot of natural light and cozy seating. Wonderful food and strong coffee, very pleasant staff as well, and reasonably priced.

I’ve always wanted to try Eggs Benedict and this didn’t disappoint; the egg was so soft and the texture was awesome; I’ve never had an egg cooked like this before. The sauce was nice and it was presented well. Service was quick which was appreciated as I was grabbing a late breakfast on the way to a meeting! Ready in 5 mins! Nicely decorated inside; with a relaxed vibe. Friendly lady who took my order. Price is fair for the quality of food and service. I did expect it to be made with a muffin but the sourdough bread was better. Edit: added more photos of recent visits.

I had a fantastic visit here, as somewhere to pause with a coffee and do some admin work! Perfect little spot to quietly work, with plug sockets and free, speedy guest WiFi. Can’t recommend highly enough - staff were friendly and helpful, plus made an outstanding cup of coffee.

This was one of the first cafes I visited when I came into the UK a year ago. Fast forward a week ago I visited them again, was good to see the same level of service and the friendly staff. Quick service even when the place was a bit crowded and the food was also great for the price point. The vibe of the place is also great to just sit and work or have a chat with friends. Overall a good experience.

Second time coming here, decided to write a review since it has been a great experience. The atmosphere is beautifully decorated and chilled, perfect for a lunch on your own or with friends. I’m a big coffee fan and my first time I ordered cappuccino and second a mocha. Amazing baristas! Smoothest coffee I’ve had in a while, went down great with my meal. The food is also simple but flavourful, there are plenty of indulgences but also healthy choices. I went with the eggs royale and smashed avocado with added egg. Super fresh and tasty, will definitely try other items on the menu next time. Smashed avocado meal however had a very strong scent of lemon juice though, they should put a bit less of that, other than that it was a wonderful lunch. Don’t hesitate to give this place a quick visit!
