Finally a place with good taste
When passing by this place there were 2 factors that have caught my eye straight eye. First the fact that I am a coffee addict and the second was the aesthetic of the place. It goes with my new hair makeover.
Because of this and also since I had 1 hour to kill before meet some friends I had to get in to grab a coffee.
I have to say that this place, the decoration and everything about it was really create to cater to this new generation that like to visit places and have nice photos to share the stories and places with their friends.
This is most likely an influencer dream.
Very small coffee shop
Judging by the size of the shop, that only have the space for a couple of tables they knew if they wanted to call people attention having people coming in they would have to go for something different since they can't have a lot of customers at the same time.
It is nice that they also have some tables outside, giving them a little bit more of space. But we all know the weather in the UK is not the most sunny the majority of the year. So I believe that the majority of their customers are the ones for quick stops or just takeaway. Also I have to say that this place is just by Victoria Station and this street and area itself is always very busy. So if you are going to sit outside don't expect for a gorgeous view and a quiet place. It will be more of a traffic view and running people living their busy London lifestyle.
It was a Sunday so I was warned that they were already cleaning to close. I told that was not a problem and the coffee was served to me in a takeaway cup. I did not found any problem with that.
The space was all pink and there were a couple of Neon light message in the walls. You better read this one until the end to see one of the messages.
Only in the UK you will see stuff like this for sure. I feel that once again it is another way to try and standout so people tell their friends so they can come visit and pass the word.
Even their takeaway coffee cups. Can you tell me that they are not targeting influencers and people that do a living from Social Media.
Now as I said and as you can see down below. This decoration did really match my new hair colour and that was the second reason I have decided to get in. Don't ask me why I have decide to take and share this terrible selfie, but I did it. Sorry.
This is real
Only in the UK you would enter in a coffee shop and read a message like this.
I had to read it 3 or 4 times to make sure I was reading it right.
But they are not wrong, unless you are more of a waffle type of person. In that case they are wrong.
In conclusion, I have enjoyed the coffee and the quick break. The place look nice but I wouldn't go for a long stay, most likely I wouldn't go to sit in at all.
I would gladly grab a coffee to go here but other than the quick fun photos you can take in, the atmosphere is not the best. The place look good but because it is such a small shop whenever anyone else is in it gets really crowed.
But if you are in the area and you want a coffee to go, why not? The coffee itself was nice and tasted good.
