Best Cafes in London
The best cafes in London for specialty coffee, pastries, and that perfect work-from-anywhere vibe.
Best coffee spots in London
Monmouth Coffee
London's specialty coffee pioneer since 1978. The Borough Market branch always has a queue — the single-origin filter coffees are worth the wait. The beans are exceptional for taking home too.
Rosslyn Coffee
A tiny, perfectly formed cafe near the City with some of London's most precise espresso. The baristas are meticulous, the milk texturing is flawless, and the pastries are from top bakeries.
Watch House
Converted from a watch house (guard station) opposite a Bermondsey churchyard. The coffee is exceptional, the building is characterful, and the location is a peaceful escape. Multiple branches now.
Kaffeine
An Australian-run cafe near Fitzrovia that helped launch London's flat white revolution. The coffee is consistently excellent and the brunch menu is outstanding. The banana bread is legendary.
Prufrock Coffee
A pioneering specialty cafe in Leather Lane. Their training school has produced many of London's best baristas. The coffee flights are educational and the space is industrial-chic.
E Pellicci
A 1900s Italian cafe in Bethnal Green with a Grade II listed Art Deco interior. The full English breakfast is a thing of beauty and the family who run it are East End legends. Cash only.
Ozone Coffee Roasters
A massive roastery-cafe in Shoreditch with excellent coffee and a brunch menu that draws crowds on weekends. The space is industrial-beautiful and the cold brew is smooth perfection.
The Wolseley Cafe Side
Even if you can't get a table for dinner, the cafe counter serves perfect coffee and Viennese pastries. The grand interior makes even an espresso feel like an event.
