Top Cafes in Herne hill, Greater london

Fab brunch in a beautiful setting. We made a group booking in advance and Zita was very helpful and responsive over email. Food and drinks were delicious and fresh, and vegan/coeliac members of our group appreciated having lots of options to choose from. Staff were really friendly and attentive. Thank you!

Excellent addition to the neighborhood. I have been here quite a few times already, the coffee is always strong and flavorsome, probably the best you can have in the area if you want to stay indoors. The owner has invested in creating an airy, bright and modern space and the pots and plants are appreciated. The food is delicious (pictured the jammy egg on sourdough with avocado and feta), well done to the staff in kitchen. The pleasant staff making the coffee and serving are also working hard. The bathroom is spacious and cleaner than other places in Dulwich. The wifi is awful (in an area where mobile data mostly doesn’t work). By 11:00 on a Monday morning, they had run out of pastries. And on a Saturday morning, it was full of loud little people, high chairs and buggies. That’s fine if you are in that phase in your life, but not so great for others meeting a friend for breakfast and a chat. It is what drove us away from other cafes in the area, and here they have two rooms, they could encourage people with buggies to take one and leave the other to those who want a more peaceful experience. As it is, I will continue to go for coffee and a snack but struggle to think of West 16th as a relaxing environment that I would want to try out for dinner. Which is a shame as clearly the kitchen staff are talented.

Cute café. Lots of fun and tasty brunch options. Nice with a focaccia/peach/burrata option on the menu! Big portions, coffee was just OK.

A new neighbourhood gem, serving mouth-watering, freshly made, generously portioned, salads, sandwiches, pastries, cakes and coffee. I ordered a mixture of 4 salads to share with a friend, a glass of English fizz, a slice of gluten-free chocolate cake that had recently come out of the oven, and a coffee with oat milk on the side, served beautifully on a wooden board. The service was charming, the atmosphere warm and welcoming, and it is perfectly located between Herne Hill and Dulwich. One not to miss.

Friendly service, a beautiful menu of fresh baked goods and healthy meals, and a spacious, bright ambiance, reminiscent of a greenhouse. The cafe is equally good for finding a spot to work at your laptop, or meeting a larger group of friends for brunch. I'll certainly be back!
