Bakery café in London

“We got lucky finding this gorgeous cafe! We stood in line for a local ‘Instagram recommended’ cafe surrounded by muddy paths and screaming children and decided there must be something better!! AND just up the road we found this little gem. The food is lovely and the service is too.”

“This was honestly a six-star meal. Between the four of us, we had a chai latte, English breakfast tea, pistachio macaron, brownie, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream - all for less than £15. Since we were eating in, the macaron came with lovely cream and raspberry jam decorations underneath that went great with the macaron as well. The brownie was not bitter at all and the tea was fragrant but the highlight of our meal was the homemade vanilla ice cream, which was creamy, filled with vanilla seeds and honestly the best ice cream I’ve ever had. Overall, this was an amazing experience and even though this place has 4.9 stars on Google Maps, I still think it deserves a higher rating.”

“Been going there for the last 3 years, and I could say that it is one of the best vegan cafes in the UK. With many assortments of vegan cakes that are so delicious that goes well with either a nice cup of mocha, hot chocolate, coffee or a nice cold frappe.”

“Had amazing coffee! I usually don't like unflavored coffee because many stores burn or over brew their espresso. Not here! It was the smoothest latte I've had in a long time - with no add-ons! And he even went out of the way to make an iced drink for us, and made it well! Definitely recommend!”

“Had an amazing experience at Jamz! The breakfast was fantastic, with great vegetarian options available. My cappuccino was delicious, and the meal was absolutely scrumptious. I also loved that the café is dog-friendly—this was my first time bringing a family dog to a café, and the staff made it such a welcoming and relaxing experience for both people and pets. The customer service was excellent, and I enjoyed it so much that I grabbed some bakery items to take home—they were just as good! I’ll definitely be visiting again. Highly recommend!”

“A lovely little cafe I came across as being new to the area and on maternity leave. The surrounding park is gorgeous and I often pit stop at Sassis for some iced coffee and a snack :) The owner, Wayne, was super accommodating for my little one’s first birthday and let us reserve a few tables for our family & friends. The staff were amazing, very friendly & helpful throughout the day! Food & drink, as always, was great too :) Definitely recommend this lovely little cafe to anyone, we’ll be back again soon!”

“Great food, vegetarian options, fresh orange juice and amazing price.”

“A little gem. I spent a week in London and ended up coming back every single day. The food is excellent (try the Mediterranean breakfast), and all of it is home-made. The set up is intimate, cozy and warm, not the least thanks to the delightful owners who manage both room and kitchen service. Will definitely be back on my next trip to London.”

“Love this cafe. It is my favourite. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. They have a lot of space for a small place. Their pastries are amazing- my favourite are the croissants but I try to avoid gluten. The breakfasts are great too. My favourite are the corn cakes with the poached egg and chilli jam! They have a lot of vegetarian options which is great! Also gluten free options too. Coffee is great! Highly recommend”

“Very efficient and customer-friendly staff. The food is top notch too. The Moroccan salad, Korean noodles and Belgian chocolate cake are delicious. My only slight concern is that there are no blinds and in summer this could be a real problem. That said, I’d definitely recommend this place. You’re unlikely to be disappointed.”

“Great coffee place with comfortable sitting and good atmosphere”

“What a gem! Just found this cafe and I will be back. Such a friendly welcome, easy to park and fantastic homemade scones and some lovely looking breakfasts.”

“This is my favourite place to eat and drink when I visit West Wickham. Very accommodating staff who really cannot do enough for you. Good food and always happy to adapt the menu if required. Also a very friendly and relaxed environment.”

“Outstanding. No other words can describe what's on offer. Utterly delicious cakes and good coffee. The biggest surprise..... reasonable prices.My only regret is I didn't discover this place, sooner.”

“It’s always a great experience at Chai, the coffee is great, and food is always fresh and delicious! I got the chicken wrap which was great. The selection of cakes is incredible, they are not too sweet and are freshly made everyday. The decor is incredible and it’s very comfortable and cozy to sit here. In summers it’s very nice to sit outside.”

“This is an amazing looking place. Completely unique. The nexus is interesting and everything is reasonably priced, especially considering its location. Ate here today. Quirky relaxed dining area, with reasonably priced food for the location.”

“Lovely cafe with plenty of sitting and delicious food. We recently discovered this cafe and visiting almost every Saturday for brunch after our library rhyme time session with our little one. Staff is friendly and food is reasonably priced. Highly recommended this cafe in Woking. And this cafe is temporary closed from 2 March till September for renovations.”

“I’ve been meaning to visit for some time and it’s lived up to my expectations. I was greeted by friendly staff standing behind an impressive display of cakes and salads. I chose the avocado toast on olive bread and a flat white. My friend had a porridge. We both loved our food. We sat in the sunny courtyard. It was all round wonderful experience. I highly recommend Chris Kitch!”

“Since new management it has been a treat to go there.. So helpfully, staff are great especially Mehmet, he makes you feel welcome and has such a great attitude. This will now be my regular go to cafe because of the tasty food, presentation and Mehmet of course.”

“Good little coffee shops with nice top floor and well decorated. Perfect place to relax and enjoy a coffee in piece. You’ll find a good selection of hot and cold drinks. Lots of sandwiches and pastries. Unfortunately no kitchen and no hot breakfast is served there. Stuff could be a little more friendly and welcoming. Service though was fast and we didn’t wait to be seated or to order. Good coffee shop I recommend”

“Lovely café with a nice range of lunch options. I was pleasantly surprised to see a dedicated kids’ menu – something you don’t come across often. Overall, had a really good experience and would definitely visit again.”

“Had a great experience at this café. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, and the latte made by Yegane was really good. She was very nice and welcoming. Definitely a place worth visiting!”

“We had Great And so Tasty Breakfast , Thank you so much, we definitely come back.”

“The Cafe Society is an absolute gem ! The atmosphere is warm and inviting , with just right mix of cozy and modern.Its the perfect spot to relax or catch up with friends.The staff couldn’t have been friendlier.The coffee, pastries and the food were equally impressive, fresh and flavoured.Big thank you to the Chef for making outstanding and delicious food.I left not only satisfied but already planning my next visit.”

“Great, cozy spot. It is quiet so I enjoy reading my book in peace. Also the food was good. I had a smoothie which was the best for such a hot day.”

“Coffee Break feels like it hasn't moved forward from 2005, but in the best way possible. The decor is full of black and white photos of old movie stars (Charlie Chaplin, Marylin Monroe, James Dean, etc) and the corner television was running 90's music videos the entire time I had my breakfast. And the breakfast- It was beautiful. I ordered a Small English Breakfast and the portions were exactly what I needed. Don't worry, they also had a Full English. But the Small was a single egg, sausage, 2 bacon, a perfectly fried hashbrown, beans, and toast. For someone like me who loves English Breakfast but would like to move at some point later in the same day this was a great set. The service here was wonderful as well. My own plate came out perfectly but when a table nearby had a cheeseburger come out with less cheese than expected the reply from the waitress was simply, "of course, no worries, more cheese" and more cheese was added (as well as the requisite sauces). The Mediterranean and special fares are also worth trying out. The special is a Lentil Soup as I write and it smells wonderful. Overall a perfect spot just off the main road in Wood Green, and perfect for breakfast and lunch in a much quieter spot than trying more popular cafes down the high street.”

“Love the new look and first time trying the rustic sandwich, tuna and sweetcorn with proper seasoning! Was delicious. My favourite place to get food in Harlesden.”

“Indulged in a slice of their chocolate layered cake, and it was every bit as delicious as it looked. The cake was rich, dense, and incredibly moist. While the price of £4.50 per slice is higher than other local cake shops, it's definitely worth it. A suggestion for improvement would be to have a clear price display for all items, ensuring customers are fully informed before purchasing.”

“Visiting the area and in need of sustenance I popped in here to a friendly welcome and table service. Despite being busy food was served quickly and was excellent.. great value too. Highly recommended.”
