This is a solid coffee shop in Soho, with a few other branches around London. The coffee is genuinely lovely and the staff were warm and polite. I really appreciated the touch of having your order brought over after ordering at the counter. It’s not the norm in central London and a welcome surprise. The space is stylish and the downstairs area has a moody charm. My dad (pictured) said it felt like a speakeasy. Pricing is fair for the area, and the service charge, though added verbally, felt justified. My one big gripe: the pastries. The croissants looked tired, hard, and sadly stale. Absolutely not up to the standard of everything else. A quick warm-up or better display would’ve made a huge difference. A good stop for coffee, but I’d give the baked goods a miss.

Latte was good it’s a shame they use syrup for the Spanish latte and not condensed milk.
