The Best Cafes in Beckenham, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

Just want to start with saying congratulations on your new Cafe. Came in yesterday with the family and had Turkish Brekky Menemen and was lovely. Lovely staff and will defo be coming back again

Great food and lovely service.

I had a tasty jacket potato meal here at a reasonable price. Staff were friendly. I will aim to come back to A's Café

Friendly independent Café opposite Clock House station. Great choice of freshly cooked food, I had an omelette with salad.

Today i visited Aylas cafe. The ambiance was exquisite and it had a welcoming, warm atmposphere. I had the great oppurtunity to meet Ayla herself! After pondering, looking at all the enticing options from milkshakes to cupcakes, i settled on a delicious smoothie, mango crush; i 100% reccomend. After ordering they got right to the job and i went home to a yummy, delightful treat. The chunks of fruit caught me at a surprise but the ratio was perfectly balanced. Go to aylas cafe for a warm experience.

A super-friendly new coffee shop with a warm, welcoming team. Nice coffee, a great selection of pastries and child-friendly. Also a good spot for remote working. Check it out!

An excellent choice for anyone looking for premium coffee and delicious food. Very welcoming staff with a warm and cosy atmosphere. Great to see a new coffee shop open in our local area.

Stopped by after the school run for a croissant and coffee - both were super and the outdoor area was such a nice spot in the morning sunshine. Really pleased to have this new addition to the area.

We love coming here as a family. The food is delicious and great quality. The prices are fair and you get your money’s worth. Vegan options are good. Em and her staff are very accommodating and so friendly. Can highly recommend this gorgeous little local business.

Great place to eat in Beckenham, very friendly staff, excellent food and service will return soon

Delicious breakfast in a very cosy cafe, the staff is friendly, and the menu is easy to go through. The downside is that there is no parking and the prices are quite up... ~£12 for a breakfast is not so great. If you are in the area, I recommend them.

Second day of getting new meal on the new expanded menu. Day 1 had the breakfast pancakes wonderful and filling. Day 2 had the combo feast and trust me for 14.95 you are getting a feast. Been a customer for over 10 year and all that time the service food and atmosphere have always been high.

It was a very nice place to have your breakfast, but not only. Clean restaurant with busy bees staff. They moved quite fast with the orders, and we didn't wait too long until they brought it to the table. The only downside is that it is CASH ONLY, really inconvenient as most of us we don't use much cash anymore.

Great local cafe with a good selection of breakfast meal combinations, sandwiches etc. Staff are lovely and friendly

This was so yum. Definitely coming back, super friendly too! I think best club sandwich I’ve ever had.

I can’t believe I haven’t left a review! This is my favourite cafe in Beckenham! This is my go to cafe for my favourite sweetcorn fritters to sit in or my favourite patty in a bun on the go. A newly installed train time display this railway restaurant is one that should not be missed. I love coming here alone or with my son and we have done for years! Highly recommend.

Had a coffee then staff were real nice wish I had time for food as ithe food looked good will definitely drop in when I am in Beckenham

Grace's Coffee at Beckenham is a cozy retreat for coffee enthusiasts and dessert lovers alike. The cappuccinos were expertly crafted, boasting a rich and velvety foam atop a perfectly balanced espresso. The tiramisu transported me to Italy with its delicate layers of coffee-soaked ladyfingers and creamy mascarpone. The apple pie delighted with its flaky crust and generous filling of tender apples, perfectly spiced and sweetened. And the cheesecake was a decadent indulgence, with a smooth and creamy texture that melted in the mouth. Combined with friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere, Grace's Coffee is a must-visit for any dessert aficionado.

It is a windy and rainy day over here so I decided to chill out giving this little cutie place a go. I adore the name as it gives me the idea of visiting a dear friend. The atmosphere is so relaxed with very good music. The design also rocks, it is so glamorous. Stunning staff, two pretty and kind girls who make this place enjoyable, clean and welcoming. The coffee is good and I love the apple pie, is absolutely delicious. I’d like this place to be a little bigger, however, fortunately I found a table. Very nice, I’ll definitely come back 💯

Very nice coffee and cake experience. Coffee was flavourful and made as requested. Plant based milk options are available. The cake display was very inviting and we couldn't resist a slice each. At £5.50 per slice (prices on par with the rest of Beckenham), I was praying it wouldn't be a let down... One biscoff slice and one pistachio/ricotta cheesecake slice later and we are feeling very satisfied 😍 Good quality crockery/cutlery. Comfortable chairs and non-wobbly seats. Fresh and leafy decor. Toilets available onsite. We enjoyed Grace's 👍🏼

Small cute and a slightly different menu

Had a very nice fudgy brownie and flat white. There is indoor and outdoor seating but as it was drizzling I sat inside.

Just came for some take away flat whites. Very friendly place with nice coffee, and the dog got a treat too!

Stopped by Novi&Co for a couple of coffees this morning and they were delicious. Didn’t try any of the pastries or cakes but they looked absolutely delicious. Decor is really nice and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Have been coming here for a few years and it’s always good to visit this lovely little espresso house in Beckenham.

Oh my gosh! The cookies, out of this world... run (do not walk) and get the matcha and white chocolate cookie. Lovely staff and great coffee!

Very cute place and very tasty coffee ! Cozy and chilled to work on your laptop ! Had a great experience today with Gareth who made me feel very welcome and will be coming back again ! Thanks so much !

Have enjoyed coming here since it opened. The coffee has always been delicious, but over time they've really made it into a nicer and nicer atmosphere, it's just a very pleasant place to get coffee. Staff are great too. The baked goods looked delicious but I sadly didn't have the calories spare to eat them...this time!

Absolutely gorgeous and family run cafe, florist and dry cleaners. You'd be hard pushed to find friendlier staff, the cake is delicious and it's a beautiful place to sit outside. Best coffee shop for miles.

Summer or winter this is a really atmospheric coffee house. Perfect to pop in for a delicious coffee & friendly welcome on your way to the station, or to sit outside & enjoy the ambiance

Lovely outside space and nice coffee and pastries! Very pleasant atmosphere and friendly service. Will gladly come back.

Always spot on. Their mochas and hot chocolates are the best I’ve tasted in a long time and I’ve had brunch here twice and both choices were so good! I’d reccomend eggs royal (I swapped crumpets for toast) and the avo and chorizo on toast is really good too! Yum yum

Best brunch in London so far. The taste of the fruit was incredible. Good portion sizes for the price The savory dishes look amazing although haven't tried yet. Many VG options. Also presentation of dishes is amazing, lots of thought put into it Service could be improved. A bit slow and got the wrong coffee order, but minor things. Great place and cappuccino was tasty Highly recommend, can't wait to visit again and try the rest of the menu Update: I went back to Piccolo Bianco and still love it!! My now favourite place for breakfast or lunch in London

Visited with 6 people for brunch today. Nice drinks in generous portion, flat white is like latte cup size. Food is great except the scramble eggs (3 of us had the same dish) were overcooked like omelettes. I love my French toasts. There is only one toilet and the flushing takes time, please be ware of this.

We’ve been to Piccolo a lot recently, and each and every time, food is consistently delicious, no skimping on quality ingredients and very well presented. Also generous portions. Coffee is also brilliant - I love the crema that they achieve on an Americano - that takes some serious skill! Yesterday I had an Oreo Milkshake - oh my goodness, it was decadent… Very unique to have this level of artisan drinks list for a neighbourhood cafe - well done to the owner for her innovation. Service always impeccable. We love Hassan!! He sets the standard for true hospitality. My only gripe is the table layout - there are one too many tables inside... Squeezing past trying not to bump into anyone sitting is uncomfortable. I’ve been knocked into a few times by people trying to sit next to me… And I have to tuck myself in … and try not to knock into anyone if it’s full. I hope management consider that a tiny bit more spacing would be more comfy if possible. However, it’s still the best of the best! Well done Piccolo Bianco team!
