School House Cafe Bermondsey

Cafe

👍👍 Excellent food and coffee. Lovely outdoor area. So cheap too! Feels so nice to be helping the community while enjoying a delicious breakfast! The cafe is teaching employment skills to young people with autism. PS they are cash only. Closest ATM is not that far away, at the Tesco Express :) People often mention great,

    They have vegan soups for lunch, big portions. Lovely home cooked meals and great coffee.

    Amazing café with very reasonably priced and delicious lunch food and drinks (with great veggie/vegan options!). Was served by a charming young gentleman as well who was very helpful. Couldn't recommend more highly enough, and for such a great cause!

    This is such a worthwhile enterprise. I love the fact that I am helping my community while enjoying good coffee and nice things to eat. I also find that the garden space is a lovely place to get a bit of peace. Note that at the time of writing this café is cash only.

    I'd almost rather not review the School House Cafe, and to keep it to myself. Its noble aim, as I understand, is to give work experience to autistic students. That doesn't imply anything about the atmosphere, which is totally relaxed and friendly. The food, which is vegetable-based, is interesting and delicious, plus affordable. There is a small regular menu, supplemented by daily specials. It is a real asset to Bermondsey, but it would be in any location.

    I happened to pass by and was in need for something warm, and that was pure luck! A cosy and warm place, excellent cappuccino, I wish I hadn't had lunch already because the food smelled delicious! If I lived in the area, that'd be my go-to place. Will certainly be back one day! Thank you to all the staff, great mission and great quality!

    Yummiest coffees around... The latte is out of this world. Very nice staff, helpful and friendly. Also they are helping individuals with difficulty which is amazing!

    Great social concept, hygienic place, decent healthy food options, very fair prices. Only shortcoming: No credit card accepted, cash only.

  • 5/5 Rebecca G. 5 years ago on Google
    They are doing good work here, and the food is surprisingly tasty. It is very affordable and is all going into helping the students from the school learn work and life skills. Don't expect the place to be quick, but it's not about that in the end. Good work School House Cafe
