Excellent little place. Great coffee, good value, really friendly service and a very good selection (incl. GF, DF, vegan etc) of delicious cakes, biscuits, juices, sandwiches etc. So glad such a lovely place is just around the corner. Will definitely be back.
Absolutely the best coffee shop around. Food is great, there are always a selection of freshly homemade cakes and treats plus a couple of quality savory items to chose from. The coffee drinks are excellent, they rival any of the great independent coffee shops in central London.
The best thing about this place is the way it feels. It’s only little (as the name says) but it has a warm, lovely, homey, authentic vibe. (In normal times) there’s always a rotating crowd of people at the tables inside and outside, chatting and enjoying their neighborhood. When I moved to the area I found it hard to get know people but I always felt welcome here, wound up meeting the owners and lots of other patrons and got to learn a little more about the area thanks to the owners’ commitment to engaging with the wider community.
Although they have been delivery only for the Covid period the tasty treats and warm vibes are still present. I can’t wait to be back in the shop again soon!
Cute little independent coffee shop that we’ve visited a few times, located near the local park but easy to miss if driving past. The coffee is good (definitely better then alot of the high street chains), the staff are always friendly and they have a selection of cakes, pastries and sandwiches available. On this particular visit I ordered 2 flat whites, a chocolate almond croissant and a cookie. As it was near to closing time, the barista gave us 2 croissants and cookies for the price of 1 – Nice gesture. The coffee hit the caffeine spot as usual but I have to mention the croissant again – so delicious – Probably one of the nicest chocolate almond croissants I’ve eaten recently, glad the barista gave me two! Recommend giving them a try if in the area and it’s always good to support small local businesses!
Fantastic coffee, lovely owners and in addition to the pastries and cakes, Ling does a side-line in authentic Chinese snacks – the baozi are brilliant. Always a treat to stop by.
I live in Kent, but every time I go past, I buy some bags with original Colombian farm coffee beans. My daughter loves tuna sandwiches from there. Recently I learnt they do a delivery.
