Cafe Lya is my new favourite place. I'm fairly new to Putney/Fulham area and I popped in one morning on my way to work and met the friendly owner who kindly let me use the toilet. I'm now back here again, currently sitting at the table and enjoying a delicious coffee. There is no music inside and it's very quiet, which is perfect for me as I'm very sensitive to sounds and loud voices, particularly in the morning. The view from the window portrays people walking to the tube and the characteristic London buses arriving and departing. On a rainy day is a very romantic picture. There is also wifi available and it's a perfect place for focussing on whatever you need to do and there are plugs next to most tables. The toilet is very clean and regularly checked. Thanks so much Cafe Lya. I can't wait to come back again for breakfast and try the delicious things on the menu. S x

I accidentally found this café, and I’m so glad I did! The food is amazing—definitely try the panini, it’s delicious. The vibe is cozy and inviting.

Not just for its coziness, the kind guy behind the counter didn’t refuse the extra ingredients I asked for in my panini. He was very patient and dedicated to making his customers happy. Needless to say, the panini was crispy and very delicious. Pop in while you wait for your bus and tube. You won’t regret it.

Kaffee

Cemetery Lodge, 240 Lower Richmond Rd., London SW15 1JF, UK | Cafe
P: 020 8037 6696

Rating: 5 (82) Price Level:

A lovely cafe with Austrian/Viennese flair and interior serving Austrian specialities in London directly at Putney Lower Common Cemetery. At Kaffee you are able to enjoy Austrian food as it should be – sweet and savoury, everything the heart desires, homemade and made with love. The team at Kaffee is very supportive and welcoming and makes you feel right at home. We've enjoyed the Ribiselkuchen, plum cake, Käsespätzle, pretzel with cheese and pickles, Kaiserschmarren with plum röster and the bacon, egg and sauerkraut sandwich. We also loved the homemade lemonade with berries, ginger and beetroot and the gorgeous flat white. Definitely worth a visit. We will come again ❤️

An excellent cafe set away from the hustle and bustle of the Lower Richmond Road. Homemade pastries are outstanding with an unbelievable array to choose from. The coffee is also excellent and the service is first class. If like me, your review also takes into account the toilet facilities, I would say this is hands down, the best cafe toilet in London.

What a delight on the doorstep, the coffee is lovely and the pastries I have had have been something else, coffee and hazelnut croissant is something to write about: rich butttery pastry crunchy nuts and a coffee/praliney type paste! Wonderful! All served in a beautiful setting.

Found this gorgeous cafe when visiting Wandsworth/Putney. Really lovely atmosphere. Ordered the gluten free/vegan option for the pancakes and they were amazing! Best pancakes I have ever had (my husband had the regular version and was equally impressed). Nothing left out, even to the vegan cream on the side. Delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. We will be returning for sure

Full English was lovely, baked beans were a game changer - very unique and tasty. Sausage was dry but enough food to fill up excluding those. Nice viewing spot to work from - bright cafe. Waitress was super friendly. Only had couple plug sockets but was there early enough to claim it!

Feels made from fresh and tasty Full English: Beans - really good, great flavour Egg: - good, maybe a bit lacking in seasoning throughout Bacon - nice and thick, maybe a hair under done, but this is personal preference Sausage - good Hash brown bites - good Avocado on toast (with poached eggs) Lovely sharp vinaigrette. Chilli oil isn't too much but adds a nice kick, toast is nice and soft, avocado is made a touch under seasoned but otherwise very nice dish

great coffee, beautiful place, everything is neat and clean. there are even toys and books for children. the only drawback is that it is very slow. i just went in to get a coffee to go. there were two couples in line. but i spent half an hour in the cafe! the staff is not to blame, but there is clearly not enough staff.

I go to this coffee shop almost every day and often work from there—it’s easily one of my favorite spots. The coffee is amazing—smooth, flavorful, and always hits the spot. The space is perfect for working, with a cozy but modern vibe, plenty of seating, and just the right level of background buzz to stay focused. The staff are super nice and always make you feel welcome. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great coffee and a fantastic place to work or hang out!

A breath of fresh air on an otherwise tired High Street, this cafe provides decent coffee alongside ambient background music in a contemporary space that hasn’t been taken over by all-day laptop workers. Staff are friendly and efficient. It’s a franchise but doesn’t feel like one. Delivery to your table via an app is a nice touch too!

I really enjoyed my visit to this café! The coffee was spot-on, and the Avo Blast sandwich was fresh and full of flavor. I spent some time working on my laptop, and the internet speed was reliable, making it a great place to get things done. The ambiance was perfect for working while enjoying a good meal. Sammy, the barista, was friendly and made the experience even better with her excellent service. I highly recommend this spot for both a delicious bite and a productive work session!

This place is the best cafe in Putney!! It is run by a lovely couple & the staff are amazing. It is also just off the high street so it has a nicer atmosphere. I would definitely recommend the matcha latte and the spinach and cheese pie is incredible🤩🤩

We went with high hopes and expectations having looked at other reviews. It was okay but that was about it. The coffees were a bit on the bland side and the extra hot chai wasn't! We tried a cinnamon bun which had unfortunately been refrigerated and not as fresh as it could have been. The staff are great and worthy of the praise in other reviews.

I’ve been there few times for a coffee and cinnamon roll in the afternoon. Coffee is always delicious but the rolls are very dry. I thought it was because they were out all day on the counter but today I went there in the morning and they were still so dry. Very disappointed

There are several Artisan locations in West London and this is one of my favourites. It is well-lit and I love going there to read or work on my laptop. The savoury item selection is rather limited, but the atmosphere is compensation. Within walking distance from Putney Station.

Their coffee is the best in Putney. I love the iced mocha on warmer days, and their flat white muffin is ridiculously good every time. Bonus points for having a hot water tap in the toilet that doesn't feel like you're pouring a freshly boiled kettle on your hands.
