This is my new favourite study spot in Croydon! Such a cute little cafe with the friendliest staff, amazing coffee and a great selection of baked goods and light meals. The freshly squeezed orange juice is delicious!

We had two flat whites and two CLUB sandwiches today. Everything was really nice, friendly staff. Cakes look really good, we will be back to try more. Thank you.

Cosy and rustic venue with extremely friendly staff. Coffee is fantastic and so is the freshly squeezed orange juice they offer. Price is as expected for a coffee shop in 2021 so no unexpected surprises. The food from the kitchen was both fresh and delicious, the pastries also looked divine but we will have to wait until next time to try these. I look forward to coming back regularly!

Love this place. Had the best espresso and delicious smashed avocado, poached egg on toast. Not the cheapest around, but you get what you pay for. Plus a great bit of banter with the staff. I’ll be back.

lovely staff and good amount of seating area. i had the cinnamon roll more than once it was very nice! not everyone can perfect the roll but it suited my preference for it well. there’s an upstairs with a lighter environment great for doing work and a downstairs area which is a bit moodier but a nice place to read books just depending on your preference.

My fav spot in Croydon. It’s got such a chill vibe, and the staff are super friendly—always up for a chat and make you feel right at home. The coffee is honestly some of the best around and I can never resist their pastries – food’s great too!

Just visited for the first time and I'd absolutely recommend. The cappuccino was so creamy and the pain au chocolat was lovely and fresh. I'll stop off next time to see if they sell the beans! Staff were warm and friendly, and its cozy with a nice atmosphere. Will definitely be back soon.
