Friend and I enjoyed breakfast here after a rainy morning. Full, smooth latte, thick rich and *real* hot chocolate, delicate eggs bene, and a full flavored pancake stack (meaning: ask for light syrup if you want something less sweet).

Lovely place to grab a quick coffee whilst going for a stroll near the riverside. Always greeted with a warm smile, lovely staff. Feel welcomed here. Love the coffee it’s better than many. Overall a quiet decent space in the summer to chill for a while on the colourful chairs. Love the concept of the brand which makes it quite different. Quite different also seeing the gym just above as you wait for a coffee. Space isn’t the most generous. Would return.

I've been going to this cafe almost every day for about 7 to 8 weeks as I've been on a big job around the corner. I have nothing bad to say about the place. Service is quick and orders are bang on to how the customer likes. Only once has there been a mistake with my food, I got sweet chilli instead of chilli and mayo in my chicken wrap - BOO HOO!! They take pride in their Chefs Special Chicken dishes and rightly so - It's really, really good. The pic is of The Chefs Special Chicken Jacket Potato with Chillies and Cheese. So, so good.... 👍9.6/10

We popped in for breakfast while we were in the area having our car serviced. There was a bit of a queue to get to the counter to order but the guy serving apologised and was really friendly. I had the traditional breakfast and my husband had the eggs royal, we both had a cappuccino. Both breakfasts were really nice and the service was great. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area, they also offer slush puppies, milkshakes, smoothies and many lunch options.

Our hotel didn’t provide the best breakfast options and at the prices they wanted was simply not going to happen. The hunt was on for finding a place to have breakfast and this places was only around the corner. The reviews pulled us in and they aren’t wrong this place is really friendly and welcoming. The food options was outstanding and they do sourdough bread what more could you ask for really. All in all great place to have your brunch and relax. Thank you to the staff.

I absolutely love this cafe! The owners are incredibly friendly, and I've been a loyal customer since they were next to Barking Station. The new location is fantastic – it's a peaceful spot to catch up or to sit and work. The service is outstanding, and they offer delicious Halal hot food, with the chicken Cajun panini being my favorite. It's a gem that deserves more recognition. 100% recommended!

Crol and Co South Bermondsey is a true gem! I thoroughly enjoyed their decaf latte, which was smooth and flavorful, perfect for those looking to enjoy coffee without caffeine. Their turmeric latte was a delightful surprise, offering a soothing blend of spices that was both comforting and invigorating. The cafe exudes a wonderful vibe, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that's ideal for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff are exceptionally friendly and attentive, making sure every visit is a pleasant experience. Whether you're a coffee aficionado or looking to try something new, Crol and Co South Bermondsey delivers on quality and ambiance. With their superb lattes and top-notch service, it's definitely deserving of five stars!

Having always been a fan of Crol and Co’s London Bridge location, I was excited to finally check out their South Bermondsey shop while in the area. The coffee here—my oat latte (£4.40, eat-in, served in a reusable cup)—is just as excellent as at their other spot, smooth and well-balanced. The shop itself is tiny but charming, with a cozy, homey vibe that’s inviting for a quick break. However, I was disappointed to learn they don’t allow laptops on weekends, which caught me off guard as I was planning to kill a few hours before my next appointment. While the quality is on point, I likely won’t return due to the combination of location and the no-laptop policy. That said, if you happen to be in South Bermondsey and are looking for a quick coffee stop, it’s a delightful option!

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.

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!

We recently dined at Bermondsey Garden Cafe and had an absolutely delightful experience. The food was exceptional, and the wine selection paired perfectly with the dishes. The highlights of our meal were undoubtedly the burrata and the hummus – both were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The ambience was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for an evening out.

A great brunch spot if you know what you’re getting yourself in to! If visiting on a weekend, you will queue to order, you will have long waiting times for your food (50mins on a Sunday at 2pm), it will be busy and potentially loud music, but that’s what Pear Tree Battersea is about. The atmosphere is great, the food and coffee is great and the setting also great. Not for everyone but a real go-to spot to meet friends after a run on the weekend.

This was a gem of a find! Let's start with the vibe, the most picturesque way to eat a meal, by the beauty of a lake amongst lush green! The food at the cafe is also surprisingly tasty. It is neither cheap nor expensive. I was happy to pay the price I did and get the food as well as the experience! Highly recommend the sandwiches here - huge portion size, and very very tasty. Even the pancakes were amazing and again served in a huge portion size.
