Caphe House
Caphe House, 114 Bermondsey St, London SE1 3TX, UK | Vietnamese Restaurant P: 020 7967 9157
Rating: 4.6 (790) Price Level:
We've been to this restaurant a few times now, and it never disappoints. One of the highlights is their egg coffee—rich, velvety, and absolutely worth every penny. The restaurant offers a wide range of Vietnamese dishes, all prepared with care by this lovely, family-run restaurant. Whether you're a meat lover, vegetarian, or vegan, there's something on the menu for everyone. During our last visit, I had a prawn pho with vegan broth, which was good! My partner had the fried chicken with noodles and loved it. This place is perfect for a quick lunch or for spending some time relaxing over a meal. If you're looking for an authentic Vietnamese dining experience, it's definitely worth a visit.

We had a delicious lunch. Phò & Special Bành Mi was excellent. Phó (noodle soup) is popular. Prawn & pork summe springroll is good. Not sure abt the Char siu noodles tho.
Rating: 5 / 5
Small restaurant serving generous plates of Vietnamese cuisine. Delicious papaya salads (great spicy level), tasty pho and fresh summer rolls! A little bit pricey, but worth the big portions and quick service.
Rating: 5 / 5
Good size restaurant with plenty of seating. Prices are reasonable to the portion of food. Pho was very delicious with a good deep broth. Friendly and helpful staff to top that off.
Rating: 5 / 5
Great chicken pho! Generous portion and the broth is really flavourful. No extra sauces needed. Plus the service is friendly and speedy. Can’t wait to go back and try the other dishes.

Stop in here to grab a pint and glad I did. Super chill spot with friendly staff to vibe with after a long day. I got a local pale ale that was extremely good as well. 8.8.

The perfect spot for weekend brunch; the food was delicious and it’s really good value too. Staff were really friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed and not loud. 10/10!
Rating: 5 / 5
Just opened and full of potential! The new addition to the Crol & Co family! This is a much larger space than the other 2 and has a fully equipped kitchen! The bar has a large offering of craft beers and selected spirits! Everything feels local and has a great cool touch to it.. from the decor to the atmosphere, the music and the menu! This is a cafe where to grab a good breakfast and a bar where you can hang out after work.. Local new gem! The prices are also really affordable for now! Burger and fries for 14£! Must come back!

Comptoir Bakery Bermondsey

Rating: 4.5 (424) Price Level:
I stumbled across this really nice bakery on Monday and the food, coffee and staff were amazing! Aliyah, Sara and Elle were super lovely and helped me choose the best pastry and coffee for me and I loved the crownie & almond croissant they chose for me! I will definitely be coming back regularly now the sweetest staff.
Rating: 5 / 5
Very delicious baked goods and friendly & efficient service. We had the slice of vegetable pizza which was humungous! We also had the apricot danish and the crownie, both of which flaky and tasty without being sickly sweet. Bear in mind there is no indoor seating for a rainy day. Definitely worth the short walk from London Bridge!

Bartons
25 Dockhead, London SE1 2BS, UK | Coffee Shop P: 020 7131 3535
Rating: 4.6 (317) Price Level:
How can I not leave a 5 star review?! Greeted with smile at every entry the staff at Barton’s never fail to make you feel welcomed, feeling welcomed is one thing but the service they provide is incredible. There’s no better place I can think of to rewind and relax after a long day at work. People reading books , playing cards while listening to great music. I can’t think of a more tranquil place to spend my evening. While at Barton’s today I enjoyed a lovely glass of wine played a game of cards and in no time after ordering, our pizzas arrived ! which was Delicious. I could not fault it. It went down a treat. I would most certainly come to Barton’s over and over again, with no hesitation.
Rating: 5 / 5
Such a cute little Café. It's just a short walk from Tower Bridge and the prices and people are so much lower than if you go to a Café directly in the centre there. It is self service but the very nice staff bring the items to you after you ordered. It is very cozy and sweet (they even give their plants names and Pablo was such a nice companion) and the food and drinks are amazing. Totally recommend!
Rating: 5 / 5
Amazing place, the atmosphere in the coffee shop is awful if you like the gender, great customer service and food as well. Highly recommended.

Amazing café with lots of coffees made out of good quality ingredients and lovely spot to hang out for a drink after work. Had a glass of good wine and a matcha latte (not together) and really enjoyed the environment and the vibe. Recommended

Stumbled across this café by pure chance after visiting White Cube down the road from it. Safe to say I will be returning because the service, atmosphere and food were all wonderful! Ordered a sourdough ham & cheese toastie which was made quickly and tasted phenomenal. I saw on the menu that many latte options are available and I look forward to trying the matcha latte next time! Thank you Chapter 72; see you soon! ❤️

Had a great time at Chapter 72! Ellie was absolutely fantastic! She served one of the best (Blood Orange) Negroni I've ever had! Perfectly balanced and expertly crafted. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made for a great night out. I’ll definitely be back!

Found this coffee shop by walking by one morning, and was positively surprised. The coffee was smooth and the croissant flaky and buttery. Service was also friendly. I enjoyed sitting outside, limited space.

Rating: 4.2 (179) Price Level:
Great spot for studying/working Laptop friendly, power plugs spread around conveniently. Fills up quickly but stays quiet and work friendly. Coffee is delicious but I didn’t like their overnight oats and theyd ran out of the falafel sandwich that I wanted to get initially (even though I came at 8:10, which I thought was pretty early!) Best part is the helpful and friendly staff. I asked for a space to pray and the lovely worker was very helpful and patient. Good place overall and I’ll definitely visit again!
Rating: 5 / 5
Really liked the cafe. The co working space is amazing considering it’s free. Many plug points, different seating options including bean bags! It’s busy but peaceful and can get your work done. Would definitely recommend!
Rating: 5 / 5
Wonderfully decorated café and coworking space. Lots of charging spots available and variety of seats to choose from. Does get busy fairly quickly but atmosphere is worth it to get you into that work flow. Food and drink very nice, reasonably priced for location.
Rating: 5 / 5
really nice place to study! the pastries and drinks are perhaps on the pricier side for a student (around £3 for the almond croissant and £4 for the soy matcha latte) but all in all, both items were delicious (almond croissant was warm and flaky!) and i think its worth it, especially given that they don’t mind how long you stay there for. it didn’t feel like there was any pressure for me to leave or order more things during my time there. staff are very friendly and bring your order to where you’re sat i stayed for around 4 hours (8am-12pm) and only left because i needed to use the toilet but was sat by the door so i didn’t want to risk my things being stolen… although it did seem as though it would be safe to leave your belongings for a few minutes, leave unattended at your own risk ! this was a saturday and it didn’t start to get busy until around 11:45-12ish would definitely come here again but maybe just sit further away from the exit so i can leave my things there to use the toilet

Predominantly a workspace cafe, but they have some tables reseved for people who just want to have a coffee and food , which I really appreciated. The atmosphere it calm, modern, and has lots of varied seating options for those who are using it as a working space. The coffee was nice and the brownie was very good. Seating already mostly taken at 1pm on a Sunday.

Laid back coffee shop, with decoration that is the opposite of minimalism! I visited on a Saturday morning, intrigued by the name of the place, and it was already buzzing! Some people were working away in their laptops and some chatting with friends. There are lots of coffee, drinks, simple pastry and breakfast options. I found a table and got my almond latte, which was frothy and good quality. Loved drinking my coffee, while people watching. Such a unique place!

Our 1st stop in London from the hotel. Cool themed coffee shop & cozy. Diners shares table & seems no issue. We only had coffee & drinks before having dinner.
Rating: 4 / 5
Attracted by the name on Google Maps and came by to try it out - which was decent in general 👍🏻 Mocha was decent, could taste the coffee and chocolate separately though. Pain au chocolat felt cold and wasn’t as fresh as I would like, a little tougher in that sense too. Good concept and interesting merchandise (and signage’s) nonetheless 👍🏻

Rating: 4.3 (4280) Price Level:
What a find this place was! Not far from our hotel at Bankside, quite near the Shard. We were seated quickly in this New York style diner that is buzzing with atmosphere, friendly & welcoming service. As it was my birthday, the waitress brought me a free Mimosa and several of the team wished me a happy birthday - what a thoughtful touch and a great way to start a day of celebration! We both had a full American breakfast with tea and a mug of joe. Very filling but just the job for a day's walking around London. Thank you Breakfast Club team on 3/1/25, you were brilliant!👏
Rating: 5 / 5
Great as usual! I love it here as you don’t just get great breakfasts and lovely pancakes but also a welcoming and warm vibe. It feels like a 80s American diner.. Service is relaxed, laid back and friendly. Surely most days you will be asked to join the online queue but I think most days you will be able to get in in less than 30 mins (just enough to have a stroll in borough market).. Recommended
Rating: 4 / 5
Great American restaurant close to London Bridge. Food was very good. I had some avocado on toast with eggs; and it was very tasty. Other members of my party were very pleased as well. The coffee could’ve been better; didn’t really have much flavour. Prices were a little bit on the expensive side. Customer service was amazing! Props to our waitress that catered for all of our questions and requests with a great and positive attitude as well as super quickly. Would definitely come again.

I visited The Breakfast Club near London Bridge on a Sunday morning, and it was an amazing experience. The location is incredibly convenient, just a short 2-4 minute walk from Borough Market. The highlight of my visit was their pancakes, which were absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to start the day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Came in the morning without a reservation before 9 AM, and the place was already buzzing! 🐝 Grabbed a spot at the bar and ordered two main dishes, served super quickly alongside their delicious in-house coffee ☕. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served with a smile 😊. The portions were generous—we left absolutely stuffed! 🍽️ Ingredients were top-notch and so tasty. We’ve been to a couple of their branches across London, and every visit has been satisfying. Consistently great! 🙌

Just dropped in on a cold London day after flying overnight. Needed a nice warm up and this place was the only perfect medicine. Awesome lentil soup with ginger tea and honey. What else does one need. Will be back for sure.

Just moved offices to nearby and popped in for a take away (vegan) falafel wrap. It was absolutely delicious. Thanks Mansoureh! Then the next day for a lovely coffee and brownie with my son. Really nice cafe with very friendly staff.

Excellent food and great service at this classy local restaurant. Everything I have tasted here is excellent. The cuisine is Italian and made with quality ingredients. There are set menu options with 2 courses or 3 courses, and are great value. The friendly staff Luciano and Neil (host) made sure we were taken care of. Highly recommended for lunch or dinner!

One of my favorite spots for a lovely Sunday lunch. The food is delicious (and as an Italian I am not easy to please) and the staff are friendly and attentive - thanks Gabriel and everyone else for creating such a welcoming atmosphere!
Rating: 5 / 5
I have eaten in some great places globally. Not all expensive however this place nailed all aspects of delivery - location/ambience, quality of food, service (super friendly staff). Loved the big airy room and the large windows where we ate facing outwards watching the world go by. It was a wedding anniversary and I had paid in advance for a small cake (pushed the price up per head slightly) - they knew and treated so well on arrival. The cake I ordered was huge! Took most of it home but it was delicous. The pasta was perfectly cooked. I'll be back!
Rating: 5 / 5
We found this place by chance. We chose 3 course menu paired with red house wine. The food is extremely delicious and the staff are so friendly. We felt like as if we were hosted by an Italian family. Blood orange with sorbet is our one of our favourites.
Rating: 4 / 5
The restaurant was wonderfully spacious and lively. We also enjoyed the friendly and attentive service. Food was fine but nothing to write home about, they also leaned towards greasier flavours.
