Guide to... Cafes & Coffee Shops in London

If your idea of heaven is a hot coffee, a big pastry, and a relaxing time surrounded by nerds on their laptops then you will love London coffee shops. From the generic big brand coffee stores, where we just use the same review for each one, to the really special ones which in some cases even have famous songs written after them we will bring you our top picks here.

Coffee culture infected the UK in the 70s and 80s but tea really got slam dunked by the greatest gift to the coffee industry since someone decided to brew up the dung of a Palm Civet when Friends came along. Millennials hooked on the repeats of that series will also find some hipster places for them in our London coffee shop guide to enjoy a gluten free dairy free double whip fruit frappuccino with extra avocado and nutmeg at.
