    After arriving from covid fortress Australia to finally visit relatives, thrilled this coffee van was still here and still serving up A1 Sydney/Melbourne quality coffee. We had a laugh that the difference between a perfect latte and a sexy latte was that one was a flat white haha. Then while chatting my husband's flat white got the 3/4 full treatment for a "Magic". Seems to have loyal regulars and is a nice walk from Big Ben giving the best view back to Parliament.

    Loved this coffee stand! Friendly staff, a variety of drink options and pastries/treats as well. I settled with an iced oatmilk latte with caramel and it was 10/10. Great views and a perfect location for a quick stop on the go.

    The best hot chocolate I’ve had in london! The shop owner was lovely, my friend and i both loved our drinks and the snacks were great too! Very very reasonably priced. Little seats right on the Thames for you to overlook Big Ben and Westminster too!

    I stopped here for a coffee yesterday, which was delicious and what a fantastic place to sit and gaze over the river. There can’t be many other cafes in London with such a good view!

    Beautiful little coffee van with a view across to Big Ben. Definitely need the weather to be good to enjoy the sit down but a nice spot to stop for a coffee and a treat with a historic view.

    In an area full of coffee franchises this is such a breath of fresh air. Great coffee and spectacular views!

    Super friendly people, amazing brownies and lovely coffee and smoothies. Really highly recommended whether you’re a local or a tourist.

    The cutest coffee stand right on the Thames. Lattes were excellent and the staff was so friendly. They have some tables that you can sit and enjoy your coffee with an incredible view of parliament/Big Ben/Thames without being overrun with a crowd.

    If you're looking for a hidden gem in London, be sure to check out the small pop-up cafe across the Thames River from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. With a handful of tables and chairs for outdoor seating, it's the perfect place to relax and enjoy a coffee or snack with stunning views of the city. The staff at the cafe are friendly and welcoming, and they go out of their way to make sure you have a great experience. I highly recommend this cafe for both locals and tourists alike. It's the perfect place to take a break from sightseeing and enjoy the beauty of London.

    OK, the place doesn't look that great from the outside, it's just a large hut! If you are on Westminster bridge walk down the side of the river (opposite will be the Houses of Parliament on the other side of river) for about 8 mins and you'll find it. It's a good spot to sit and look at the Houses of Parliament or walk a bit further along and around to the other side of the river and sit in Victoria Tower Gardens and have a quiet moment. The hut looks like the "graffiti artists" have had a go at it, but look beyond that and the coffee is great. As mentioned before, I'm not a fan of Costa, Nero etc so always seek out some real coffee. I'm a flat white, oat milk girl. This did not disappoint. The guy was very friendly and also used some coffee and sugar that he mixed up to make a syrup instead of using straight sugar granules, apparently its much better and does not destroy the taste of the coffee. I've not heard of that before, but agreed my coffee tasted great.

    Best chai latte I have found in London! made from authentic chai herb mix rather than some processed overly sweet powder that you get at most cafes. My go to is a dirty chai latte made with soya with some added coffee syrup, you’re welcome ;)

    Cutest little coffee place by the Thames, their lemon and raspberry crumble cake was to die for! If I lived in London I’d happily come every day!

  • 4/5 Todd R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing coffee and sweets and great view. But they’re never open in the mornings (when you need them most). Open times say 7.30am, still not open at 9am on a Friday.

    the vegan brownie is what made me realise that life is worth living (the coffee too)

    Coffee was not the one. Nice vibe/location and I’m sure the smoothies and cakes are lovely.
