Having recently moved into the neighbourhood its a pleasure to have a local and friendly cafe to rely on. The food is delicious, always fresh with exciting flavours, and a great selection of juices and smoothies as well ! Coffee is great, atmosphere is great. Would wholeheartedly recommend Daniel's to anyone coming through Little Venice.

Popped in for lunch. The employees are very kind and complimentary. And the food was wonderful. Probably the best sandwich I’ve eaten although it is a bit pricey. Worth it as a treat in my opinion. Finally the ambience is nice. Christmas jingles and nice decor. I recommend you eat here :)

We had a Xmas celebration beyond our wildest dreams at Daniel’s. Downstairs at Daniel’s in their function room what unfolded was a Persian adventure with food that was as special as it was delicious. The service and attention to detail were exceptional. It felt like we were transported back in time and welcomed into a home full of delights. The time passed so quickly and the space offered up a cosy and relaxed ambience. Would recommend it wholeheartedly and a massive thank you to all the team!

Daniel’s Cafe is the place to go if you want to keep coming back. Beloved by locals and the best in the neighborhood for croissants, cakes, pain au chocolat, and smooth coffee, all made with care and served with kindness. Not to mention the fresh fruit juices and smoothies!! In a London full of franchised, minimalist cafes, this family-owned business stands out for its integrity and quality of food and service. I am so glad to live nearby an affordable bakery of this caliber and proud to support such a wonderful team.

Absolutely love Ginger Coffee Shop! The Italian gelato is so creamy and delicious, and their sandwiches are perfect for a quick, tasty bite. The staff here are incredibly friendly and make you feel right at home. Oh, and the Christmas decorations? Simply magical—such a cozy vibe for the season!

Cafe Ginger quickly became one of my favorite spots. The cozy ambiance, with its perfect blend of modern and rustic decor, is inviting and relaxing. The coffee is outstanding—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed. Their pastries are fresh and irresistible. The staff are friendly and attentive, making sure my experience was top-notch.

Firstly, the owner himself is very friendly : Haider. The mocha that I ordered was superb. My husband and I enjoyed the nice ambiance of the cafe. Hidden gem in Paddington. Do check them out. Tq Haider for the good hospitality

Super cozy ambiance. Extremely friendly staff. The signature Ginger shot must have. Their coffee is full of taste and aroma. Highly recommended this little gem in Maida Vale is one of my favourite places for chill down.
Rating: 5 / 5
Such a lovely little Italian café. The cappuccino was smooth and comforting, and the gelato was creamy and delicious. I especially loved the almond croissant—flaky and perfectly balanced. The Christmas decorations added such a cozy, festive vibe. It’s a great spot to unwind and enjoy the season.

I love these donuts ! They are the best Nutella donuts and all the flavours they make donuts best in London ! My favourite really , I just stop at this station just to grab them!
Rating: 5 / 5
It says best speciality coffee in Maida Vale, It is actually true, they use Organic good quality coffee beans. The Cream Doughnut is very light and fresh, not very sweet and I am addicted to their Chocolate Brownies, very fudgy and rich in Chocolate. Congratulations for your new seating area outside the Station, it looks very nice. Christmas Cups already!

Super cute, by a nice underground mosaic just by the Abbey Road crosswalk if you are coming by tube. Great coffee, good donuts. Excellent service, very kind guy.

We had breakfast here yesterday and It was amazing. The donuts were so good (we tried the chocolate hazelnut and the cream one), the coffee was incredible as well. If we come back to London, we would love to come back here! Thanks so much for the excellent service and it was a nice chat in the morning! Regards from Spain :)

Rating: 4.8 (217) Price Level:
Great little neighbourhood cafe. Two wonderful women run this delightful little spot and the service is always warm and friendly. Decent coffee and lots of great pastries and cakes. They also sell dry goods, sauces and other small selection of groceries. Lunch-time toasty sandwiches are tasty and made fresh per order. Limited seating available inside and outside. Can be a bit of a wait if they’re busy but worth the wait.

It is very nice cosy cafe. The coffee and pastry is delicious. The service was perfect and very warm, it made us feel like home. Thank you so much!
Rating: 5 / 5
My go-to spot for a daily mocha served with a smile. I love this place and because they’re so good, I don’t really go anywhere else for coffee locally. The service is everything and the wonderful ladies behind the counter always put a smile on my face. And their cake selection is fantastic too. I really love the different varieties of banana bread in particular.
Rating: 5 / 5
Just amazing!! Such a sweet lady who runs the shop. She made us paninis and lattes by hand and it could not have been more perfect. We were so happy we stopped by! There were many locals coming in and out so it’s a good sign.

Chai Chee
249 Elgin Ave., London W9 1NJ, UK | Tea House P: Not available
Rating: 4.9 (60) Price Level:
Like changing experience. I entered with no real purpose or direction in life and left feeling enlightened. The man serving exuded an aura of confidence and competence. The quality was exquisite, as if the tea leaves had been freshly brewed from the plantations of China. Each bubble provided a fruitful sensation. The store itself had been recently renovated and redesigned to recreate an atmosphere of affordable luxury. Solomon’s bubble tea was a biblical experience.
Rating: 5 / 5
Delicious, fresh and well prepared. I love bubble tea and this was the best I had in Central London. Seriously worth trying😊🌹❤❤❤
Rating: 5 / 5
Very affordable and high quality milk/fruit tea. Loved the atmosphere and service, great vibe. Probably the cheapest bubble tea I've purchased in London (or anywhere for that matter), yet the quality outmatched most boba shops I've been to. Loved it! ❤️

To good place and bubble tea is the best and the Mango Gelato was too tasty.

Delicious food and a lovely vibe. Really tasty aubergine in particular. Classy without being overly expensive.

Amazing vibe, attentive and super friendly staff with food that is 10/10 - you must visit this place! I would have posted the picture of my desert (saffron ice cream) but it was that good I forgot to take it 🙌🏼

Lovely experience at Antika. The staff were very attentive, friendly and made the dining experience great. The food was 10/10. Will definitely be coming back and hope more find out about this hidden gem!
Rating: 5 / 5
The food here was absolutely delicious. They have great vegetarian options. I would really recommend the truffle hummus and the smoked aubergine. They are extremely reasonably priced also. The restaurant is lovely and in a nice location. The service would have been better with a smile, but the food didn't take long to come out.
Rating: 5 / 5
We came here for an informal meal to mark my youngest daughter’s birthday who also happens to have some allergies. We were very compassionately taken care of and the service was completely impeccable. Great tasting swiftly served meals with good portion sizes. I would recommend anyone to experience Antika with its cozy ambience and service. Everything from the Lamb chops to the lamb shanks were wonderful. Also the food was HALAL! The whole family enjoyed the experience, thank you once again to the staff.

Liten Coffee
1b Fairhazel Gardens, London NW6 3QE, UK | Coffee Shop P: Not available
Rating: 4.9 (125) Price Level:
If there’s ever a coffee shop that I wished to be just around the corner from where I live, Liten would be the one. What this establishment offers is more than just the perfect drink, it is also their passion about what they do and how they do it. Whether it is coffee, tea or specialty drinks, they are always prepared to perfection, and most definitely with a touch of smile and a bit of a good conversation if you so desire. The coffee here is just the best in the area, unbeatable. Let alone their specialty drinks, my personal favourite being chai latte and matcha. You can literally taste the difference because they procure real chai, ceremonial grade matcha and prepare your tea with a bamboo whisk! For coffee lovers, some days you walk into this modest little in shop to find guest baristas as a surprise! The patisseries they source from local bakeries are also really amazing, on certain days if you’re lucky you may also come by their really sought after seasonal danish that are always sold out early. The first time I visited, I witnessed a regular gifting Liten a custom made Lego built just like the shop, and I always see familiar faces whenever I go. So I think it is fair to say Liten is somewhere special to at least me and some other regulars, magical even if I may exaggerate a bit. It will always have a place in my heart. It is the perfect place on a good day or even a bad day, it will always bring something to lighten you up. Come experience the magic yourself!

True to its name, Liten Coffee is a tiny, but lovely coffee shop in NW6 👍☕️ (“liten” means “small” in Swedish 🇸🇪). I very much enjoyed my flat white by the window 🤩 and had an interesting little chat with the friendly staff. The small Lego model of the coffee shop on the counter 🧱 immediately caught my attention 👷 and I was very happy to see that they also sell excellent Land Chocolate bars 🍫. I can’t quite believe how I only now discovered this great coffee shop. Will definitely be back soon. 🙂
Rating: 5 / 5
Fantastic coffee shop. The coffee is really exceptional and the people are friendly - it feels like a real community hub 🥰. There are a few bits and pieces in the shop from coffee beans to cordials to chilli oils - all of which are very tempting and special. The granola is delicious when it’s in stock.

Lovely little ‘hole in the wall’ coffee place serving great coffee. The offer very limited pastries & biscuits selection as well as a small variety of speciality coffees to take home. Great place to grab & go a cup of coffee

It really is as good as its rating suggests. The smoothies — we tried the mojo and strawberry banana — are amazing… full of honest-to-goodness fruit. The honey cake with walnut was divine. The cafe may be hidden behind a bus stop but the food they serve was excellent!

Local gem and good coffee with a strong chocolatey note, which was delicious. They sell deli items, wine, brunch and pastries. There is downstairs seating as well as many benches outside. I loved my morning here.

Really lovely place! Beautiful independent shop run by lovely owners. Definitely worth a visit! Best pain au chocolat ever (inc ones I’ve scoffed in France), wonderful coffee, lovely fresh produce and many lovely treats. Can’t wait for their cooked food offering prepared on the premises by top chef, Tim! Just what’s needed on this side of SJW. And now with online ordering too.

Proper big pot of leaf breakfast tea, enough for several cups plus a bowl of yummy pretzels. Exactly what I needed after a long day out and about, and before dinner. I'll be back for more on the tasty menu.

Lovely gentlemen served us delicious coffee this morning. Lovely conversation, too. I like the intimate interior, with walls decorated with coins from around the world, plus one painting of a UK picturesque countyside/ garden scene. Go in and see if you can spot it.
Rating: 5 / 5
Amazing coffee, flavour was prestine. Although the flavour is smooth(the house blend) , don't be deceived, the coffee/ caffeine level is very, very strong so I'd recommend you don't down your double! Also very cheap
Rating: 5 / 5
I was in the area and had an hour to kill, I made the right choice of stopping here. A small but very quaint and friendly coffee shop. The Italian owner runs a great show, top rate coffee and pastries. Everyone knew each other & were on first names terms. When I was there a load of regulars were standing outside chatting. I have the feeling that’s a weekend ritual. Very well priced but make sure you have cash as they don’t take card. I didn’t have cash on me but the manager said I could enjoy my coffee first before going over the road to an ATM.
Rating: 5 / 5
Best place to get a coffee in the area! Lovely staff. Cash only. Very limited seating, so better for take out. Has pastries and sandwiches, but no vegan options.
