About Prufrock Coffee

Prufrock Coffee is a coffee shop on Leather Lane in London, serving walk-in customers across a bar area and table seating. Espresso-based drinks sit alongside a filter coffee menu, and the seven-item food menu runs from toast and granola to egg dishes such as eggs benedict, served with hollandaise sauce and often paired with courgettes, plus greens. Beans are sold in-store, organized by taste profile so customers can take a bag home after their visit. Outdoor seating extends the room for anyone who prefers to sit outside, and high chairs make it workable for families with young children. Dogs are welcome inside, and a step-free entrance keeps the space open to visitors with mobility needs. Takeaway is available for anyone eating off site. The counter opens daily, with no booking taken and the late morning stretch the busiest period.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the filter coffee, praised as smooth, velvety and bright, with specific mentions of a Square Mile filter and a Pepe Jijon from September Coffee tasting like the menu notes. Close behind is the hollandaise on the eggs, where reviewers describe the espresso flavour as a good match, served with grilled courgettes. Others name the flat white, eggs benedict, almond croissants and banana bread, and a few bought beans to take home. Many describe the staff as welcoming, attentive and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere as busy but relaxed, with counter seats for solo visitors and a crowd that builds around late morning.

Featured reviews

  • Margaret Davies
    “​I dropped in here for a quick morning flat white and ended up staying for over an hour just taking in the lovely, relaxed atmosphere. The coffee is exceptionally smooth and expertly brewed, and their freshly baked almond croissants are simply divine! The staff are so welcoming and attentive, making it such a cozy haven in the city. A wonderful spot to unwind or catch up on some reading. I’ll definitely be back regularly!”
  • Katie Hancock
    “The most delicious filter coffee, surpassed all expectations. And really good food.”
  • Krzysztof Świątek
    “Only popped in to grab a quick coffee to go and some beans. The place looks really nice, the staff was friendly and the coffee was good. Not sure about sitting in and food options as I didn’t get to fully experience these”
  • Tobias Harren
    “Cafè with varying selection of exceptional coffees from the best roasters around the world. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, being able to answer inquiries on the coffees. Food was very tasty and made with high quality ingredients. (This results in a slightly higher price, which I think is worth though.)”
  • Cristiane Reis
    “Prufrock is a great specialty coffee shop with excellent coffee and a wide range of brunch options. It seems to be a popular spot for business meetings, although there were plenty of tourists there as well, giving it a lively atmosphere. The service was excellent, with very attentive staff. We had the eggs on toast and the granola bowl, and both were very good. One tip: it gets very busy around 11 a.m., so it's worth arriving a little earlier if you want to avoid the crowds. Highly recommended!”
