Customer Review Summary
Coffee is the draw for nearly every reviewer, described as great, fantastic and delicious, with one regular always ordering a cappuccino made with Origin coffee and another praising the iced coffee. Close behind is the outdoor space, a terrace and seating area with a view over the common that reviewers call lovely and cute, and one says the vibe is nice on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Friendly staff come up repeatedly. Several reviewers describe themselves as regulars, some having followed the cafe from its first location on Lavender Hill and now calling this new opening their favourite. Pastries are called lovely, and one reviewer notes the dog water bowls and says the place is very dog friendly. One reviewer closes on the queues of people, which they say they love seeing.
