    Everyone recommended me this café for amazing ambiance and environment. I am myself a big coffee lover so, today I decided to visit this place despite of thunderstorm in the morning. I Ordered one Large cappuccino and Tuna sandwich Believe me It was one of the best coffee I ever had and sandwich was really amazing. Moreover, their patio is so damn cool!!

    A great café to visit on the weekend for breakfast/brunch! The atmosphere inside is very nice and feels super cozy. There’s a good variety of pastries to choose from that are a bit pricey, but for what I believe is worth it. I got the pretzel and herb cheddar scone— pretzel was lacklustre, but the scone was so soft and flavourful that you could really taste the herbs inside!! The staff were very friendly and I got my order quick despite it being noon and quite busy. The longest part of the wait was just standing in line (it took a bit of time for orders to be taken) but other than that, good service. Overall, I definitely recommend if you want to go meet with a couple of friends! Maybe not an ideal place to study/work because of how busy and loud it is, but very nice nonetheless. <3

    My favourite cafe in London!! Their pastries and drinks taste amazing and they are at a reasonable prices! 🤩🥰 if you are visiting this cafe for the first time, definitely give their cruffins a try! They are amazing!! It’s basically a muffin with crispy layers and cream inside the muffin! I always get their earl grey tea with steamed non fat milk 😝, the flavour is very nice and it’s really good! The interior is spacious and very comfortable! Staffs are super nice and responsive! One thing I wish they had was wifi, it would be so much better if they have wifi there so people can work or browse on internet but they are amazing 🤩

    I love everything about this place. The animals, the food, the train ride, the playground. It’s an all round experience especially for families with little kids. I was expecting a lot more variety of animals but still had fun.

    Nothing is as memorable as having a cup of coffee in the soft sunlight. This Black Walnut Bakery Cafe in the northern downtown is such a chilled-out place with a great atmosphere. The staff here always smiles, which allowed me to feel very comfortable. Their pay increase is absolutely needed.

    A great café to visit on the weekend for breakfast/brunch! The atmosphere inside is very nice and feels super cozy. There’s a good variety of pastries to choose from that are a bit pricey, but for what I believe is worth it. I got the pretzel and chocolate croissant — pretzel was in average, but the croissant was delicious 🤤 !! On the other hand, the coffee is one of the best of the best in London. The staff were very friendly and I got my order quick despite it being noon and quite busy. The longest part of the wait was just standing in line (it took a bit of time for orders to be taken) but other than that, amazing service.

    Love these independent non-star-b*ks cafe, friendly and helpful staff, summer time patio is great, winter time is kind of crammed, good coffee ( a bit pricey) great variety of pastry and salad but no vegan option, really? Not even a simple dairy free cookie? Too bad.

    Got here only Cappuccino. Sorry but I'm not a big fan. It's a little better than Starbucks, but not as good as in the roastery coffee places. However the atmosphere is very pleasant, service is great and kind, pastries looked tempting.

    I ordered a variety of breakfast sweet & savoury pastries! The gentlemen helping me was so nice and he made it so easy to pick out my treats. I brought them to work and then brought the extras back home for my family. Three of them have been sitting there for a few days, but I ate the rest tonight and they’re still absolutely PHENOMENAL !! Amazing flavour, soft texture, buttery, so yummy! I would highly recommend.

    In terms of food we ordered Iced Latte, Hot Cappuccino, Egg & Bacon Scone, Chocolate Almond Cruffin and, a Chelsea Bun (not pictured). What an absolute treat, everything was great. No complaints. In terms of service, we were helped by a gentleman whose name escapes me but, wow he was so friendly and willing to answer any questions we had. Additionally, this is the first place I can recall in years where tip percentages are reasonable at 5,10, or 15 percent. In terms of atmosphere, the inside and outside patio are very clean and well maintained, beautiful flowers, a great mix of sun or shade, etc. very warm and welcoming. 5/5 across the board, love Black Walnut, come here if you’re in London!

    Last weekend, my friend and I visited Black Walnut, and the experience was amazing. They offer an ample variety of food, serving fresh pastries and organic coffee. We sat outside, and the staff graciously served our coffee. The prices are affordable compared to Starbucks, and the pastries are even better. We will definitely come back for more.

    I visited Black Walnut Bakery Cafe during my trip to London. It's a charming little coffee shop with lovely decor and very friendly staff. However, I found the coffee to be of slightly lower quality compared to Starbucks, so I would rate it a 3. The pie was on the sweeter side, which wasn't to my taste preference.

    I visited Black Walnut Cafe on a Saturday and had a mixed experience. The croissant I ordered was disappointing as it was not flaky and arrived cold. I would have enjoyed it more if it was served warm. On the bright side, the hot chocolate was delightful and the quiche was tasty as well. However, I hope they can improve by serving all their baked breads warm, as it would elevate the overall dining experience.

    Large selection of food and coffee. The coffee is organic too and they have a spacious seating area but lots of bees. The staff is very nice. One of the best coffee shops in the area

    We were driving through London and came across this classic cafe for breakfast. It was amazing - their food had a lot of variety, everything was fresh, smelled good, great quality. We tried the egg-bacon scone, sausage rolls, latte and house roast coffees. Left feeling completely satisfied.

    Discovered this place today and it has good food and coffee Lots of spots to sit and chat at, and you can tell they have lots of regular customers! It was the perfect spot to sit down and get some work done on my laptop 😊 I'll definitely be back!

    Absolutely charming cafe. The food is amazing (try the old fashioned donut muffin!) and the drinks are well made. Pricier than some chain coffee places, on par with more premium chain places but much better food. Staff is always delightful.
