Cafe in Beckenham

“Had a lovely time here with my family. Food was very nice and plenty of tables to choose from. Would definitely go again.”

“Novi is the BEST espresso room / coffee shop in the ‘Nam without exception. It’s the warmth of the welcome as much as it is the delights within!”

“I’ve found my favourite breakfast spot. Having moved to the area recently I came here for the first time for some breakfast. The menu was great - there were so many amazing and healthy options to choose from. Similarly, they offer delicious smoothie options. My breakfast came out beautifully presented and tasted amazing. One of the best I’ve had in a long time. The service was super prompt and friendly too! Can’t wait to come back!”

“What a find, beautiful food and brilliant service. We had two serving choices for each of us and it was the perfect meal size. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Simply brilliant food, amazing taste.”

“We live just up the road and thought it was a greasy spoon. How wrong we were. Poached is a postage stamp size gourmet breakfast restaurant. The menu is innovative. The service is warm and friendly. That totally know their coffee (fresh roasted beans on sale here too). A delightful place for breakfast (and probably lunch too. As a bonus they have a live train times board and do takeaways. 5 stars all the way.”

“Lovely fry up served very quickly. Very popular Sunday late morning so can be quite noisy. Clean and food piping hot. Outside seating also.”

“I’ve been a loyal Daisy Grey customer since 2023, and in that time it’s become far more than just a coffee stop for me — it’s been a constant companion through every stage of my academic and professional life. The team is consistently warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming; they remember faces, orders, and even the little details that make you feel like part of the community. During my undergraduate degree, the outdoor heaters kept me company through countless study sessions. As a teacher, I found myself back here on early mornings, planning lessons with a cup of something extra hot (which they never fail to get just right). And the outdoor plug sockets? They witnessed the highs and lows of my master’s degree — drafts, deadlines, and all. The coffee is always delicious, reliably smooth, and prepared with care. Their pastries are just as unforgettable: the croissants are always fresh, warm, and perfectly flaky, and the banana bread is genuinely the best in town. The fact that the staff remember my regular extra-hot order says everything about the personal touch that sets Daisy Grey apart. I regularly drive an extra ten minutes from work, even on my shortest breaks, just to get a Daisy Grey coffee — it’s genuinely that worth it. Daisy Grey isn’t just a café; it’s been a backdrop to my growth, a comforting constant, and the best local spot I’ve ever had the pleasure of calling “mine.” Highly recommended.”

“My wife and I love to come here on weekends. Great food. Great staff. Great vibes.”

“Baylee was so friendly. The açai bowl was lovely too!”

“Great new place just opened. Italian bites & cocktails, cool decor. Pasta was home cooked & tasted great. Long Island ice tea was mixed the way it should be... About time we had a cocktail bar worth visiting.”

“Nice little spot in the park court yard brilliant for dog walkers and visitors. Nice menu serves stone baked pizzas with a few to choose from. Breakfast buns and a nice selection of drinks. Ice cream counter that also serves special dog ice creams. Very nice staff all the food is fresh and they have a selection of cakes and bakery goods. Well worth a stop”

“Our favorite cafe the cakes are the best and the value incredible.”

“Stunning Sunday lunch! One of the best Sunday roasts I’ve had in a long time— even better than some of the traditional pubs Uptown. The preparation of the vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy were spot on! Nice, busy atmosphere, with great service. Thanks!”

“This is a busy park cafe. The coffee is very good and on our last visit my son had a huge almond Croissant which was exceptional. We have never had a meal but the menu is varied and what I have seen served looks very appetising. Finally the staff are friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit in my opinion.”

“Haven't been there for 8 years, fancy something different than pub food, the food was excellent big portions two drinks cost only £20 would have cost me in the £50 in the pub highly recommend.”

“Took my son for his birthday on monday and had the best experience-from being greeted warmly at the door,to being seated and beyond. The food was fabulous. It was so good to experience good old fashioned hospitality- it was great and will definetely put this place back on my list. Thank you!”

“Come in here with family for Lunch and had Kaci and a gentleman serve us who was top notch this place from food to service has drastically improved best it has been in a very long time. Thank you to Kaci especially as her service was top tier and will make the best manager one day. Thank you for the chef as well as all the food has Improved drastically”

“Love coming here with my son after school. The coffee is good, there is not much noise, there's parking space and the staff are lovely”

“This is a no nonsense sports bar and the only one in Beckenham (the others are masquerading as sports bars - no sound on TVs and pushchairs everywhere). The bar staff are brilliant and work hard, plenty of big screens with different sport catered for. I’m delighted to be kept safe by management taking security seriously..”

“Special mention to the staff, particularly manager David, who went above and beyond in making sure my bike was safe while my Mum and I watched the Downton Abbey film! So helpful and a pleasure to chat with.”

“From the moment you step inside, the aroma of freshly ground coffee and buttery croissants wraps around you like a cashmere scarf. The interior? Think sun-drenched nooks with velvet armchairs, vintage bookshelves, and fairy lights that twinkle like captured stars. It’s Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. I ordered the lavender honey latte and the avocado toast with poached eggs and truffle oil—and let me tell you, my taste buds threw a party. The latte was silky, floral, and perfectly balanced (not a hint of soapiness, which is a lavender crime I’ve suffered elsewhere). The toast? Crispy sourdough, creamy avocado, eggs cooked to runny perfection, and that truffle oil… chef’s kiss. Portions are generous but not overwhelming, and every ingredient screams quality. The staff? Absolute angels. My barista, Leo, noticed I was sketching and brought over a tiny complimentary matcha madeleine “for inspiration.” Service this thoughtful should be illegal. Even the playlist—lo-fi jazz with a sprinkle of French pop—feels”

“Great pub, fantastic atmosphere PS they don't do food, but their sister pub The Chancery (next door) does an excellent menu!”

“Lovely coffee shop really close to the station, not the place to be sitting on your laptop (my mistake) it’s hustle and bustle and friendly customer service is great if you’re just stopping by and having a good catchup. But wouldn’t stay for long as it’s a tiny space. Definitely recommend for good coffee and quality baked goods. Had the blackberry danish was so good I forgot to take a photo!”

“Very nice café with a good vibe, i ordered the ham & cheese toastie which was really tasty yet not very expensive (around 5 pounds). I strongly recommand if you live around Eden Park !”

“Staff friendly and helpful. Quality of food excellent. Large choice of menu. Premises always very clean and tidy. As soon as a table is vacated, the table is cleared and cleaned. Would recommend Hutch's highly.”

“Great little bar serving beers and wines on the Elmers End Green, Enjoy a pint or two and a wine and nibbles while watching the world go by. Fleur and her staff are excellent hosts amicable and friendly. Great friendly atmosphere.”
