best banana bread ever

09 Jan 10, 18:21 5 Beyond expectations

visited this cafe over the summer. Best coffee in London. The banana bread rocks. Not sure what it's like during the week, but at 10am on Sunday morning, it's a very chilled place. The staff are just the right mix of friendly and relaxed, making it the perfect spot to sit, read the papers and watch the world go by. If you haven't been yet, go.

Utterly over-rated and overpriced

17 Sep 09, 11:01 1 Well below expectations

This place is utterly over-rated, overpriced and disappointing. The cappucino is below average and the place is tiny. You get served by a bunch of lazy apes behind the bar with a dumb surfer grin. If you want to soak up the real atmosphere in Soho go to Bar Italia or the adjacent Bar au Marche, where you can find some real local characters!

Phizzz, Zing, Pow - whoa there!

OMG these guys dish up some of the best, most powerful espressos know to man.

Go there for a shot after a heavy lunch and you'll be buzzing until at least tea time.

Excellent!

A haven for coffee geeks

03 Nov 08, 16:14 5 Beyond expectations

Flat white are amongst the very best coffee shops in London, great vibe and perfect coffee skilfully served.

Good food too if you're in the market for a quick snack.

They've recently moved to using Square Mile beans which really are top notch and as expected it's brewed to perfection.

As a coffee geek - I'm always inspired by the fantastic flavour and consistency of their coffee.

Quite simply the best coffee in London

12 Aug 08, 13:31 5 Beyond expectations

Forget Starbucks, Costa or Nero - this is the place to go to.

Fantastic coffee and a nice selection of hot and cold food available too.

Get's very busy around lunch time but they've opened another branch (The Milk Bar) nearby which is usually quieter.

A coffee gem

11 May 08, 21:15 5 Beyond expectations

This unassuming cafe on Berwick Street is a perfect antidote to the hubbub of the market and Starbucks.

It is small, friendly, serves very good coffee, yummy pastries and is a great place to chill out. I love that they serve tea in china teapots, complete with a proper cup and saucer, smothered in chintz. Long may they reign in Soho!

Cosy Soho Cafe

15 Apr 08, 12:48 5 Beyond expectations

This cafe is a real find. It's very miss-able as you negotiate the hustle of Berwick street market and marvel at the array of bizarre fabrics that spill out of the abundant haberdasheries.

But if you do find it don't miss it. It's small, cosy, extremely friendly and has (some of you may dispute) the nicest tasting coffees in Soho. The coffees are not overly strong but they taste delicious and the dedication of the staff there is something to admire.

They have the usual accompaniment of pastries, croissants etc... and I haven't ventured beyond there so can't comment on the rest of the food.

Check it out, you'll love it - just don't tell too many people as we don't want it to get too busy!

Best Coffee in London

09 Apr 08, 17:16 5 Beyond expectations

Flat White has been serving up great coffee from its location on Berwick Street for a while now. Started by an expat kiwi it is bringing great NZ coffee to the world, the sort of thing that continues to really put a thorn in the side of Starbucks trying to compete in NZ.

The premises are small to tiny, but the atmosphere is great and no matter what time of day you go the place is full and humming.

The food served on the side is also great, paninis with fillings more exciting than the standard London ham, cheese etc, great muffins etc

Finally, when you order tea, it comes in a porcelain cup and saucer like your grandmother used to serve you...
