Stumbled upon this place and are so happy we did! Left after having great coffee and conversation with the barista and a few books in hand. The windows are just a cherry on top of the experience!
I really enjoy coming to this cafe. I love that it's a part of a church as it really provides a great atmosphere. The only issue is that there isn't enough seats sometimes. They also always have a feature roaster and I really enjoyed my interaction with the Barista in the past. She helped me narrow down the one I wanted to select to take home with me. I would highly recommend a visit.
Epic place! It's a coffee shop in an old church, which is so cool. The space is spacious, and the staff is super friendly. Crosissant wasnt my fav tho It might be a bit on the expensive side, but the great atmosphere makes it worth it.. probably a good place for a quick work meeting
This church/cafe is an unusual hidden spot in the city. Coffee and snacks may not be of a high grade, in my opinion, but it's beyond the point. It's a perfect getaway spot to take a break and spend some time reading a book.
The perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff are extremely friendly and hospitable. Coffee is served in a compostable cup so you might want to bring your own reusable cup if you are bothered by that kind of thing. Perfect place to meet up with friends, get some work done or just avoid the weather and tourist. There is a large accessible toilet and outdoor seating area of the weather is nice.
Been here twice now, people have said the atmosphere is great and I’d definitely agree. It’s friendly, warm, good lighting but also, fantastically spacious, which is rare in London, considering so many coffee shops are crammed and very small. The coffee itself is really really good, I will definitely be going back again for that. The staff are friendly. I haven’t tasted the food, so can’t comment on that, although it might be good to have a bit more of a selection cake wise, but looking forward to going back again soon with friends/family.
Unique spot for a coffee, with an airy and spacious seating area in a church (and an outside seating area apparently - I didn't fancy it in November...). Massive pastries and a standard coffee menu, with porridge pots and chocolate bars also available, as well as cold soft drinks. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is chilled, with plenty of space for people to work or socialise. Worth noting that coffees are served in takeaway cups, which some people won't appreciate, but overall a really lovely place to pause. Also this crazy toilet cubicle (pictured)
Hidden gem, that needs to stay hidden. If you want somewhere to sit and read a book in peace and just escape London for 20 minutes, this is the place to go. With great chocolate and a good selection of pastries, snacks, and the like. It was a joy to visit. The coffee shop is in a church, and this gives the entire place a peaceful atmosphere. One of our favourite places to visit while in London and I wish we visited it sooner!
