    This is a cozy coffee shop with some indoor and outdoor seatings. I really enjoyed my flat white wine oat milk. There are Wifi and sockets so that you can give a quick charging and study/work break too:-) Note: When I said I wanted a coffee without milk I thought I was gonna have something with no dairy or plant based milk. Therefore, the barista surprised me with oat milk flat white. Hope it wasn’t because that I don’t have a British accentπŸ˜…

    Visited this gem of a place on cloudy Thursday morning. Nothing sets the mood of a vacation abroad right than a perfectly crafted cup of coffee. I wished I was cozying up in a corner of this chic little place reading a book & trying their range of offerings. America can learn a bit from their attention to detail in every aspect of the coffee shop... be it the cups, the well lit ambience, friendly staff, wall art and the coffee of course. Live long and prosper, Kafi!

    My brother and I came the other day to try siphoned coffee and had the best time. Coffee was amazing. The Batista's knew exactly what they were talking about and made great coffee! Highly recommend, will be going back.

    Great place for great coffee! The staff were cool. Though it's a small place with limited seating available it has a very good vibe. Their banana chocolate bread was so fresh and yum. I am definitely going there again.

    This coffee made my dayyyyy! I ordered the flat white and it came with this cute and christmassy latte art! The aroma was so rich and tasted very chocolate as well! What a great blend of coffee!

    Super cute space. Great filters, cold brew tea and wellness latte. The owner puts in a lot of effort to make the space cozy too

    They work with local beans maker. Buy 1 bag of beans for 1 free coffee (not sure if there is this event everyday) The pour over I chose is nice! You could ask the staff if it is okay to work or study with laptop (free wifi is provided). Today is not too crowded and they said it is okay. The seat besides the window is cozy. The atmosphere is nice. Love it!

    I have been here twice so far and both baristas are lovely to chat with. Especially about coffee! Today I came in and they had just done some aeropress for their skylark coffee bean and I was able to have a small taste of something different! Amazing oat latte as well πŸ’• definitely recommend if want to have a nibble and coffee (wonderful almond vegan croissant)

    Lovely staff. Best vegan banana bread and croissants. My monthly treat when I'm working in London. And its great to be able to support small local businesses.

    What a delightful spot. Lovely, polite staff with delicious pastries and delightful coffee. Put a smile on my face and warmed me up on a chilly, dreary day.

    Fair reviews of coffee places are often tainted with first impression rose stuff...and when does that rose ever really lead to a lasting marriage? This review then doesn't afford this place the chance to get into a multiple date groove. I'm giving the latte the benefit of the doubt...I should have taken it as a flat white..I would have had more bean oil flaves come through...but the bonsoy was handled as well as a whalers harpoon, though the presentation was flawed, but not fatally. The scroll was a solid product, well stored out of the aim of a 5yo that coughed like 19th century coal miner/minor. The cold brew was lacklustre, with a straw that adds theatre to a glass with no actors of flavour. Popular with locals, this could be yours after a few dates.

    Very good coffee and nice cafe. Wished they had more seats! Thank you for the free coffee (when you get a bag of beans, a cuppa joe is on the house).

    friendly little place for a morning coffee. I visited after I read the reviews of the place, and it was not disappointing. Their coffee menu has lots of options to chose from. Next time I'll try something to eat maybe.

    Very good filter coffee, oat latte and matcha oat latte - we all had different drinks and they were all very good! Their filter coffee uses medium-light roast beans. A good filter coffee needs to be brewed with lighter roasting coffee beans and they nailed it. The coffee didn't taste sour and had light fruity taste. The colour looked right too! Light ish see through brown colour πŸ‘ŒπŸ»πŸ‘ŒπŸ» Their oat latte was incredibly smooth. It was such a treat! And it was a pretty big cup too! Great value for money! The matcha oat latte looked and tasted beautiful! This was not some weak matcha that gets covered by the taste of oat milk. They also have lots of other healthy drink options. It is one of the rare independent coffee shops with more seats inside! What a great find! I'll definitely come back again!

    Very well the best vegan pistachio (!) croissant I’ve ever had. (And trust me, I’ve had many.) Excellent coffee. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. 11/10.

    Best Piccolo latte. My cup of coffee!! Tasty Vegan banana bread. There is a small glass of β€˜soda water’ to drink after coffee, super! Would like to visit again

  • 5/5 Emanuele T. 1 year ago on Google
    Truly great cappuccino and almond croissant, the latter considerably larger than normal (in the UK in my 30+ year experience). Very recommended. Small place, so might be full, but take-away is of course an option.

  • 5/5 Richard C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little coffee shop with a good selection of coffee beans and rotating roasters. Does espresso based drinks, pour over, and in the warmer months cold brew and nitro cold brew. All fantastic.

  • 4/5 Elena M. 5 months ago on Google
    I had a matcha latte and a pistachio croissant. I found the latte relatively small in size, with too much foam. Flavour-wise it was good. The pistachio croissant was good, but if it was warmer it would be way nicer. I paid Β£8.80 in total, which felt slightly expected.

    Great coffee and great and helpful service. The barista was so kind and helped us find a fantastic restaurant to try.

  • 5/5 Charlie M. 2 years ago on Google
    Incredible place, serve delicious espresso coffee with a small glass of sparkling water - as it should be.

  • 5/5 Şiyar D. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place and great customer service Tom !!!

  • 4/5 Joe 5 months ago on Google
    The matcha latte especially tastes good in my opinion and the banana bread was made with a lot of care and thought but the staff were a bit arrogant about the payment? I don’t understand. But overall, it is a good coffee shop, recommended to people that love coffee.

  • 5/5 Anna F. 5 months ago on Google
    I was in London for a week working and had intended to take advantage of the coffee culture, visiting a different cafe every morning - but I went to KAFI first. It was the best flat white I'd had in months, so I went back to KAFI every day rather than risk being disappointed anywhere else. I also enjoyed their cold brew made in-house from beans they roasted themselves. This is quality coffee - I can't recommend it enough! (and I can't wait to visit again)

    Nice little cafe - I’ll be back

  • 1/5 Omid G. 4 months ago on Google
    Terrible experience the other day. Three of us were having coffee and it was freezing because the owner wouldn’t allow us to close the door to keep the warmth in. The team member was really impolite. There are other places with a better atmosphere and service. The coffee was nice though.

  • 5/5 Alex K. 2 years ago on Google
    A few yards back from the main drag this wonderful peaceful place with friendly staff and owners provides a rare place to sit quietly with amazing drinks for absolute connoisseurs and quality quick pick me ups for those dashing off. Opposite the serene gardens that surround Fitzrovia Chapel, an oasis of calm is to be found in this temple of coffee, matcha, and scrumptious snacks. Dogs welcome, what's not to love!
