Socializing café in London

“I had a great experience at this café. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor, but the highlight for me was definitely the avocado and mushroom toast perfectly seasoned, with a generous portion and beautifully presented. You can really tell they care about the quality of their ingredients. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a relaxed spot with great food and service.”

“Real hidden gem. Was my little Brothers birthday and Really looked after us. The food was some of the best ever had hearty and nourishing all fresh. The salad platter is well worth it although its to share but its so so good easily could have had one each and the bread served with it was tasty . Chicken Spring rolls were to die for never had anything like it so good. The mains we got chicken and lamb tajine and they both were delicious. kept us full for a gig at the 02 academy. Highly 11/10 Reccomend khamsa and big thank you to the chef/waiter running place on his own yet still making us feel looked after and serving the best food not an easy feat”

“Another absolute hidden gem in south East London. We just stopped here for a quick coffee and it was so good, the espresso is really easy drinking and BIG, if you want a decent sized espresso this is the place to go! Also the guy making the coffee of potentially the nicest man in all SE London coffee places, he's so friendly. We'll definitely be back here for drinks, snacks and music another time.”

“Where do I start, when I first entered this establishment, I was skeptical. Within two minutes, I was taken back by the service provided by the staff. The food is absolutely exceptional and if I’m being honest, I would describe this establishment as the best cafe in the Bromley borough.”

“Great place for a lovely breakfast in sunny day have indoor and outdoor area. Very friendly owner. Nice coffee and panini! Very good price. May find free parking nearby!”

“Stumbled across this fab little coffee shop today. Really lovely staff, great coffee, and a very tasty croissant! Sat on one of the bar stools at the window and watched the world go by. Highly recommended.”

“Had a lovely breakfast here. Everything was well cooked and not too greasy. The coffee is great too. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Such lovely vibes. I live locally and don't know why it's taken me so long to try this place but I will be back”

“It is a small and homey cafe! I loved the cozy atmosphere. Most of the time the owner will be here and cook some specials just for you. You heard that right, there is a menu if you want a quick bite, but people in the know can ask even for a lasagna ;) come check out the specials!!!!!”

“An extremely charming cafe in Chalk Farm. The owner is welcoming and dedicated. The food was delicious with fresh ingredients and served with care. Highly recommend!”

“Amazing cafe, would reccomend if you’re in the Romford area! Food, drink, staff, atmosphere all top notch. 10/10”

“Was planning on going to the popular cafe next door but the line was over 2 hours and so we decided to to give this place a go as the food looked good and it was busy but no queue. Very happy that we did as it was a lovely breakfast. The full English had everything you could want and was fresh. The hollandaise sauce on the eggs Benedict was lovely too. Amazing bubble and squeak. Don’t bother waiting in the queue for next door. Come here!”

“We had breakfast and went back for lunch... The place was really clean, food was amazing!!!!!! Service was really really really nice....!!! Highly recommend!!!”

“An absolute gem. I feel this has to be one of the secret locations in Harrow as it is so easy to miss. Situated next to Harrow Weald Bus Garage opposite Lidl. I highly recommend their breakfast, hot dogs and my daughters think that their milkshakes are better than McDonalds. Great outside area for when it is warmer too. Friendly staff and a delicious menu.”

“Well cooked quality food. Great value- particularly the Breakfasts which include a drink Service & atmosphere fantastic. These are new new people & not the people who took over from Amici. No added Service charge- I like to decide how much I tip.”

“I don't often travel to this part of London. The nunnery is unusually in an alley on the route to the park. Also attached to the gallery. You can eat in or out in the alley beneath their large pink umbrellas. Simple snacks, hot drinks, and more. I enjoyed the street feel ambience, bunting and light installation. There is plenty of seating inside, along with a small shop, disabled access, and a toilet. Staff are friendly and quite rightly being strict in adhering to Covid restrictions. We (the customers) also need to be patient and understanding that we are still in a pandemic. Generally, a relaxed atmosphere.”

“First time here today. Very clean and nice atmosphere. Food was good and a good price, and staff were friendly. A classic caf, would recommend.”

“Wonderful warm welcome and service with a beaming smile! Top hygiene rating, to boot!”

“I visit Detour regularly. It's a lovely café with tasty, very well presented food. The coffee is delicious & the staff are all so friendly - I love having chats with them! 5 stars all round ⭐️”

“Really tasty food & presented really well. Our server Mel was attentive & hard working. Loved the pink decor.”

“Great food, especially the fresh baguettes and steaming hot tea. Very affordable prices. Nice community feel.”

“So friendly and welcoming. The signature pistachio macchiato was outstanding. Well worth the visit, slightly outside the Grandmaster Palace. I'll definitely be back again”

“A great local cafe run by volunteers for the benefit of the community.”

“A group of us go to the cafe after our Nordic walk in nearby Trent Park. Its run by volunteers, so friendly and nice. The food and drinks are lovely, especially the home made cake.”

“Took my sister and her friends to this lovely place! Amazing Service, amazing cat and great vibes overall:). 10/10 definitely recommend!”

“I came here as a solo-traveller and absolutely loved it! It was lively but still relaxed. There was a group drawing, some students studying and some lovely people chatting. It felt as if I were part of everyday London-life -- exactly what I was looking for. The coffe was fantastic and the offered food looked delicious. The staff was very kind too. I can only recommend visiting!”

“Very nice family friendly coffee shop. I tried one of the best sweets there, absolutely delicious. Quite place and very good location.”

“I contacted Cafe Connections after seeing one of their posts on Instagram. I had no idea where to start with my packaging and they have been so amazing! Honestly don't know what I would have done without them.”

“I liked their Friday special foods.”

“The cafe is a great place. My usual sausage sandwich and double espresso are very good quality. Staff very friendly and welcoming.”
