10 Best Places To Get A Coffee In Central London
In no particular order, here are my personal 10 favourite places in Central London to pick up a great coffee:
1. Kaffeine (try their blondies)
2. Lantana (tucked up a little alleyway of a side street, off Mortimer street: brilliant coffee. Has a more proper cafe side by side with a hole in the wall coffee/ quick lunch cafe (the hole in the wall one has the most amazing serving dishes: apparently flea market finds from Germany))
3. Nordic Bakery (checkout the cinnamon buns)
4. Flat White (check out their funny keep the door from clanging shut device)
5. The Espresso Room (great brownies last time I was there)
6. Ottolenghi (pick up a sourdough loaf at the same time: amazing)
7. Fernandez & Wells - I love their Beak Street shop: they serve an amazing latte
8. Paul (their campagne loaf is seriously good)
9. Rose Bakery at Dover street market (try their insanely good carrot cake while you're there)
10. Cocomaya (everything in this patisserie is stunning)
