SHOT London - Mayfair

I had a very disappointing experience. I placed my order and was told to leave the queue because a table was available. After I sat down, I was suddenly asked to pay an extra fee just for sitting at the table — after I had already paid for my order. The staff member was rushed and rude, speaking to me in a disrespectful way with zero professionalism. On top of that, the coffee tasted average — nothing special at all. Honestly, there are a thousand better cafés out there with better service, better attitude, and better coffee. I definitely won’t be coming back.

Amazing creamy coffee, a must try. Such a cool concept and the interior is beautiful. I got the Spanish iced latte it was delicious. Prices are good too considering the hype it was on TikTok plus its location. Staff was helpful and attentive. Amazing aesthetic + perfect coffee. Will definitely be back.

For some it may be worth paying the extortionately high prices for a fancy Mayfair experience and buying into the stories of the rare coffees they have on offer. If this is something you’re looking for, this place is probably for you. However for me, I don’t feel it lived up to the price tag or blew my mind with the coffees I tried. There’s some amazing independent specialty coffee and roasters across London, that could give you a better tasting and overall experience at a fraction of the price. If you’re more interested in having the experience of trying a £265 cup of coffee or tasting a coffee in short supply, then this would be your place.
