Breakfast cafes in Kingston Upon Thames

“Wow, the most delicious feta mini quiche ever! What a find! So much to choose from beautifully presented sweet and savory produce too. Lovely smiling staff. A wonderful surprise find for morning coffee with "pastries". Good value for money and quick service. We ate in, relaxing at the window bar seating, happily watching the rain! Highly recommended ( take away available too). JM”

“One of the best boutique cafe in Hampton Wick (South West London). The Barista is very attentive to detail.Superb desserts, delicious homemade savory food, sandwiches, including vegan options. The homemade soups are great especially in cold days and is a great alternative. Stylish interior. Nice staff. The lady "Simona" is very friendly and she makes everyone feel welcome. When shopping in nearby Kingston Upon Thames, we always go to this cafe.If you are tired of the big branded coffee shops and you want to have a really good coffee, this is the place for you!”

“Me and my boyfriend came here for our anniversary, and had a great experience. Jasmine in particular was very helpful, she made sure to check in and ask if we were ready to order anything else regularly which was very helpful as we were there for bottomless pancakes! Very personable and friendly waitress, made us feel so welcomed! Thank you Jasmine for making our evening feel special!!!”

“Amazing experience. The perfect English breakfast. No fuss, just honest old school service and food. Great to see there is such a great place smack in the middle of kingston. Price is excellent. Waiters are amazing. Well done”

“Me and the family were waking by and happened to find this cafe in Kingston so we decided to try it. The staff were very welcoming and the food was delightful and tasty. The prices are very cheap for Kingston in general and the portions are very filling. Came here with the family and we all loved it.”

“Great coffee and treats, lots of space and the falafel place is lovely. Also the staff are always fast and friendly!”

“Quality. Variety. Been going here for a couple of decades. Consistently excellent. Always a nice welcome and attentive and confident service. Really good breakfast choices. Wide salad selection. Just addicted !”

“Called in for a morning coffee and pastry. Such a warm wonderful welcome. The aroma in the place was amazing. As was the coffee and pastry”

“Lovely little cafe by the river. Tuna melt and cappuccino were both delicious! Lots of benches and dog friendly.”

“Had a drink and bite to eat whilst waiting for my car to have it's MOT. Had the Panini meal deal - really tasty and great value. Very good service too, will be back :)”

“I was visiting Kingston from out of town and popped in for a quick bite to eat. Great customer service, and the food was absolutely delicious. Will be coming back with a book for a nice cup of coffee when I’m next in Kingston.”

“Almost every time I’ve been there, I have been given something for free. The other day I bought two bao buns and they gave me an extra two for free, this has happened more than once. Today I received a free packet of Ramen. There are so many more examples of this that I can’t put it into this review 20/10 recommend this place. Has a massive variety and at a reasonable price. Awesome staff and good service!”

“Big fan of this place. Always friendly and they make great bubble tea. They also recently renovated and have a great and wide selection of food, drinks, crockery etc. definitely worth a visit.”

“Great place and great customer service”

“Excellent place for Sheesha. Authentic place, tasty Sheesha! Nice booths with screens. Staff very friendly. A great place to just hang out, good music playing.”

“Great stop off for refreshments before a long walk. Service is good at cafe and atmosphere always buzzing with like minded fitness enthusiasts and normal everyday dog walkers and families.”

“Wow wow wow!!! I used to come here 20 years ago and I am so happy to see that they are still in business. Has anyone lasted this long in Kingston? The wraps are still divine! Highly recommend the chicken garlic wrap ❤ Wonderful staff, go and you will not be disappointed”

“This restaurant offers exceptional service — they treat you like family from the moment you walk in. The staff genuinely care about their customers and go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. The breakfast was a highlight: fresh, flavorful, and with a wonderfully natural taste. I left feeling satisfied and appreciated. Highly recommended!”

“Eleena's is wonderful. Glad we found this quaint little place. Only in London for a few days and only wish we would have found this sooner. The food was beautifully seasoned, the service was a delight and just an all around great place. Can we get a carbon copy of this great restaurant back in the US?”

“Lovely piece of Portugal in Kingston. Delicious food, coffee with great friendly service. Well stocked wine "library". I asked for a recommendation for a medium priced red wine to accompany a steak dinner. It wasn't too much trouble for the owner to recommend from the wide offerings, which was much appreciated.”

“This small lovely venue is great for gamers and you can even have your birthday party here as it has party room. First time I came here and I will return in future. Good atmosphere. We enjoyed playing Mario.”

“Positioned right on the river Thames. Sit and enjoy an ice cream or coffee and light lunch. On a beautiful day it's heaven to sit there and then stroll into Kingston or Surbiton. Great selection of vegan items”

“If you're near Kingston, you absolutely must stop by this wonderful cafe. It manages to combine cosy comfort with a level of presentation that turns lunch into a visual feast. The moment you walk in, you understand why people rave about the food selection. Everything from the vibrant salads and freshly prepared "baked" is meticulously displayed. It’s a true "eat with your eyes" experience, where the colours and textures are right there in front of you, making choosing a delicious challenge. But the real, undisputed star of the show is their Lemon-Ginger Honey Tea. It’s the perfect blend of sharp, sweet, and warming, a drink that instantly resets your day. Sometimes I genuinely only visit just for this tea alone, staff is always friendly and would add extra ginger or honey.”

“I’ve been living in London for quite a while, and today I had one of the best experiences of my life. The atmosphere was incredibly warm and friendly, and I had the best cappuccino I’ve ever tasted. Thank you for such a lovely experience — I’ll definitely be coming back! ☕✨”

“Great coffee from very knowledgeable baristas. I will say the flavours are great, I’m not particularly fond of the Ethiopian blend by my partner loved it. Price was fair and reasonable. The coffee prep techniques is far superior to any coffee shops in the locality. The atmosphere was great, people were playing board games etc and the smell was amazing when you first walk in. The cookies were also great. Only slight gripe was that I was charged for a standard coffee for 2 however I wanted the V60. When I mentioned this I was refunded straight away although was told this would take 3-5 working days to debit and then I was charged properly for the V60. I think that this could have been handled better and an additional charge just for the uplift only - again this was only minor and didn’t bother me too much, but might not have been great if I didn’t have the extra money in my bank. Will visit again and again when in the area.”

“The Almond Croissant was really good but wasn't the biggest fan of the Biscoff Latte and it didn't have a very Biscoff flavour.”

“Had a lovely Sunday roast with my family, the food was delicious & the service warm & friendly. We will be in touch to book for our Christmas party.”

“My daughter and I come here a lot. We enjoy the upstairs area. They always have vegan whipped topping, too. A lot of Nero's don't have it made! The staff are very friendly and accommodating.”
