“ in my visits the service has been quite fast which is appreciated! brief yet friendly as well :) in the first instant i purchased an iced mocha which was lovely. perfectly sweet yet balanced by the notes of espresso not drowned out by the chocolate :) second time i got a protein smoothie which was also quite balanced and worth the price. however, i’d not purchase the iced matcha i had bought - as it was quite tasteless (as reflected by the very pale green shade) and strangely had no ice (perhaps forgotten, perhaps melted fast? i didn’t originally notice it as i was in a hurry) and tasted like steamed milk. i don’t think the matcha is of best quality or used heavy handedly so that can use some work. but that’s alright, i will still come again for the smoothie and coffee as i think that’s a stronger suit of their beverage menu. similarly, i’d love to try some of the food and captivating specials listed :)) ”

“ We absolutely love this café! It’s run by a lovely husband and wife who are always so friendly and welcoming — you can tell they really care about what they do. The coffee here is the best in the area, no question about it. The food is always fresh and tasty, and I love that they make their juices right in front of you — real fresh juice, not the bottled kind that most places serve these days. Their menu often changes with new specials or something different to try, and it’s always spot on. The staff are fantastic and the place just has a great local feel. If I ever get my coffee outside, it’s only from here — otherwise, I don’t bother! A true gem in Knightsbridge — highly recommend. ”
