Super little cafe tucked away near Butlers wharf. We had a lovely breakfast, great service and all very quick and easy. Stark contrast to the dreadful Ivy just around the corner.

On a sunny day like today the choices by the river are multiples and today i have chosen to stop by this Italian Coffee shop in Shad Thames with my family. It is a very small place with lots of Italian products and fresh food...on the go as well. We sat outside and had flat whites and croissant (I should have got the cream one like my wife). The 3 staff team was brilliant and super friendly; Tonya who devotedly looked after us and quick was the star explaining my wife the differences between coffee drinks. Got also ice cream for my daughter to go as we were leaving 👍. We surely be back on our next trip to south of England.More

I enjoy the food at Olivelli's, a sister restaurant near Waterloo, so assumed this cafe would be good for coffee and cake in preference to Starbucks next door. It was a hot day and there is no air conditioning inside so we chose to sit...at the outdoor tables although there are no sun umbrellas. You have to order at the counter and take things to your table yourself. The "Americano" coffees weren't very good and came in small cups. I wanted some milk for mine and too much was put in by the person serving, usually it comes in a jug so you can choose how much for yourself. I complained but she wasn't interested and certainly didn't offer to replace. The staff do not seem to care much about their customers or smile. There wasn't a huge selection of cakes and they are very overpriced, £5.25 each! They tasted OK but nothing special. We won't be back.More

Next to a coffee chain we opted for a smaller cosy place. Big mistake. We sat down on comfy chairs to then be adked are you ready at the counter. I pointed to our choice. Coffees were just plocked on the table, mine spilled over...the cup with no ask if we need sugar. The Koala arrived just put down no idea what it was, had to open it. Expensive and would not return!More

I was fully expecting to write a bad review for this place when I asked or breakfast and they looked at me blankly. Over their shoulder was a big sign saying English Breakfast. But it was good. Not cheap by any means but thoroughly enjoyable...and cooked properly. And it’s just a few metres past a well-known coffee place. But, here you get coffee how it should taste!More

The two of us went in mainly because the sicilian cakes looked delicious. There was no queue. We stood by the counter waiting for someone to take our order.However the woman working there completely ignored us and carried on serving the customers seated outside. We...waited patiently, hoping she would say something like 'take a seat I wont be long'. However not a word, it was as we were transparent... she looked flustered, then another lady appeared behind the counter and I looked at her, hoping she would take my order but she just ignored me too. So we left.More

Visited with a friend on Sunday, we were just walking around and stumbled upon this cafe, thinking it looked nice from the outside and was surprisingly quiet for a Sunday morning in the area (think we missed this red flag!). I ordered the full English...breakfast and a latte which came to £17 something, bit pricey but I'm used to London prices. My friend ordered eggs Benedict. The coffee was good. When breakfast came, our poached eggs were completely dry - solid even! The rest of the breakfast was ok but had balsamic vinegar drizzled over it, which was too sweet for my liking. My friend was disappointed that her eggs Benedict wasn't on a muffin but thin pieces of toast. My friend went to the counter and politely mentioned about our poached eggs being hard boiled, and the lady at the counter agreed to redo the eggs (no apology though). Eggs came done the second time were fine but rest of my good was cold by then. Overall, fairly disappointing experience, perhaps we were unlucky as I can see some good reviews on here.More

Three women were stood chatting while I waited to be served. With no one else in the queue. I then asked for a cup of tea. The woman making the tea didn't know how to make tea. She poured the milk in with the tea...bag. Which made it look disgusting.More

Went in to this charming looking cafe near my new office. Was hoping i had found a daily spot. However the woman working there was awful. Theres no music in the cafe (which is fine) but the woman behind the counter was BLASTING her phone....Apparently looking at TikTok since every 15 seconds was a new obnoxious song. Completely impossible to sit back and have a relaxing coffee in such an atmosphere. May as well go to a McDonalds as the atmosphere is just as "pleasant", Cannot stand people who lack the basic respect to not annoy others with their phones, will never go there againMore

Place felt scruffy. Food was average and prices high for what we got. Staff (possibly the owners) rude and noisy. Would not return.

Amazing service close to the tower Bridge, wonderful smell and taste of coffee perfect to eat with the pastries or the food already there to be eaten. Punctual and everytime smiley people to chatting and exchange some point of view. In perfect simphony to buy...the flowers by John in front of them. I wish to come back as soon as possible. GioMore

Lovely day to sit outside this great little coffee shop hidden away south of the Thames near Butler’s Wharf Pier, close to Tower Bridge. Friendly service and good cakes 😊😊
