Their brunch menu is pretty extensive and includes good vegetarian options. Lots of dishes sound like they have a Mediterranean or Middle Eastern twist to them. The hot coffee drinks are really good. Space is a little tight inside, which can be tricky to manoeuvre with a lot of luggage - and we also noticed a wheel chair user having some difficulty getting through the space. With friendly staff and great menu options, this was a much needed stop during a busy travel day.

Great coffee (strong and smooth) and delicious cakes- what more could you want?!…read more The staff are very friendly and gave us some good advice when picking an afternoon cake- carrot and orange cake is sizeable but light and delicious. Its also a great place in the mornings offering lots of tasty bites (like miniture tarts with spinach egg yolks and gruyere cheese- mmmm heaven) and its nice to have some more inventive ideas for breakfast on the run (we all love a bacon sandwich but not every time!). Coho is ideally located by the station which means it gets lots of people coming in from there but still keeps its regular clientele and often has groups of mates nattering over coffee - this gives the place a bit of soul. I'd recommend coho for coffee lovers, cake lovers and breakfast lovers.

Regarding the food, there is a good variety to choose from, the paninis always have a generous filling and the cakes/muffins tend to be freshly baked & tasty but a bit too sugary for my preference. As far as the drinks go the coffee is about average but definitely better than in most coffee shops in Guildford. Tea & chocolate is usually prepared in a rush & is nothing special so I wouldn't recommend it but I suppose I can't rate them based on this as their main focus is coffee. Finally, I wouldn't recommend sitting inside as it can get a bit crammed & it usually is very noisy even if there are only a few people sitting inside.

This place gets packed on a…read moreSunday afternoon even when the weather outside isn't frightful, so it was a bit tough to find a place to sit. After ordering, the bf and I wound up parking our big, bulky selves along a narrow, back counter space in an adjacent, quite small, rectangular room that I'd quickly coined the "laptop library". I think my po-po was almost accidentally backin' up against someone's MacBook Pro. At some point during our stay, I noticed this. So, Mac-dude was either too polite, or too English to tell me to move my goods away from his. Hehe. My perch was directly in front of an open window-ahhhh-so I was able to gaze out at the nearby street and buildings while gulls were crying somewhere off in the distance. The gulls were a very nice touch. What to say about the flat whites? Oh, I don't know. I hate to sound like a "hater", but the bevvies were quite milky with only the slightest hint of espresso to them. Resplendent with fab-o foam art, they looked every bit the part flat white, but didn't really taste like them. What's great about Ground is that the service was spot-on friendly and efficient. I'd be keen on going back and ordering a drip coffee and a snack, and, hopefully, snagging a seat by the window, or, if it's nice out, a seat on the bench out front.

Let's be honest, Caffe Nero is a chain for people that like the idea of coffee but haven't tasted a…read moregood cup yet. I've sampled various Americanos, Espresso and Lattes over the years and can honestly say they've all tasted bitter and burnt. The people that grind the beans and man the coffee machine seem more interested in the art of coffee making than the folks at Costa Coffee but I've still never had a cup I've enjoyed. Maybe it's my personal taste but I've yet to meet anyone else that rates their coffee either! With regular lattes and americanas priced around £1.80 upwards, I'd rather make myself a good cup of Union Coffee or Monmouth at home than be disappointed again.

As far as Caffe Nero's go, this is a fantastic one! The service is always amazing in here and…read morethey're never in a rush to clear you out of there - no matter how many coffees you drink slowly while making the most of their awesome free wifi. A few weeks ago my home internet went down and, in a desperate search for free and reliable wifi, I stumbled in here with an optimistic smile on my face. I wasn't disappointed! The wifi signal is amazing! I've never had any troubles with it at all, which is a rare find. Yes, this is a chain, but it actually does things very well. The food is tasty and the coffee is delicious (to my standards). The space itself is also really great and it never gets seriously busy like other cafes in the centre of town. I've been back here many times since and have left as satisfied as the first time. If you're a student or a home worker looking for a great place to sit and work, undisturbed with great wifi and nice coffee, this is the spot for you!

Brighton boasts a diverse café culture that caters to the needs of locals and visitors alike from…read morethe waffles to the Wi-Fi. Your Brighton and Hove coffee experience isn't complete until you've visited one (or all!) of the six conveniently placed Small Batch Coffee Company sites dotted around the city. Pop-up pitches greet the commuters at Brighton and at Hove railway station and both areas boast two café's a-piece on busy central thoroughfares. So do take the time to sample some beans from these enterprising Brighton baristas. My local SBCC sits on the corner of Norfolk Square and is a welcome addition to one of the less grand regency squares currently undergoing a transformation. All the sites have a distinctly hip interior that you'd expect from a seriously cool coffee house. Personality can be found in the nod to local attractions, such as the pavilion domes in the shop signage and the beach hut mural on the Norfolk interior. If you're after a speedy verdict, THE COFFEE IS AMAZING. You can now move on. I had a cappuccino that came in a generously sized cup and finished off with a heart motif. The heart did look a bit like an onion, but that's ok. I love onions. The taste was rich and warm and a cut above your regular coffee on the go. The reasonably priced drinks come in at around £2-£3 and the tea is just as lovingly brewed as its flavoursome coffee brother. If you fancy a nibble there is an array of cookies, cakes and hot snacks for between £1.50-£3 that are fresh and tasty. I opted for a slither of brownie. I've been tricked by brownies in the past. It's hard to talk about, but they've been deceptively brown yet distinctly lacking in choccy goodness. I'm happy to report that this sweet treat was moist and rich. Phew. So whether you're a connoisseur or after a quick quench, be sure to stop here and have a cup of the hot stuff.

Small Batch Coffee Company serves great coffee in a beautiful and stylish setting. There are…read moreseveral Small Batches scattered around Brighton and Hove, but this one has to be one of my favourites! It's spacious and comfortable and is a great place to start the day, with a nice cup of tasty coffee in your hand. Coffee places can sometimes be quite cramped, noisy or busy places, but Small Batch doesn't feel like this at all. The big windows and spread out tables make for a really open feel to the place - leaving you with enough room to relax and not feel as if you're sharing a table with the people sitting next to you. Now, I'm very much a basic coffee kinda girl! It's usually no milk, no froth, no fancy beans! I'm not ashamed to say that I can't especially tell much difference between my coffees and will happily drink even the cheapest instant coffee and enjoy it nonetheless. That being said, the coffee in here really does taste different. It tastes real, if you will... It's strong and flavourful and, honestly, I'd worry that if I stopped off here for long enough I'd soon after never be able to drink my beloved instant coffee ever again. The one pitfall of this place is their lack of wifi. I had just settled myself down with a hot cup of coffee and a opened up my laptop to begin work, when I realised. Ultimately, it's not the end of the world. There are plenty of cafes nearby with wifi available and, in a way (as long as you're expecting it) there's something rather charming about a coffee place where you can't connect. Use this as you time-to-relax coffee spot, rather than your work-away-from-work area.

I love a good pour over coffee or drip coffee made with flavorful specialty beans. This place has just that! One of the best cups of coffee I've had abroad hands down! The service was fine (I walked in as soon as it opened, so no crowd to fight). The vibe is rustic and eclectic -- I enjoyed it. Highly recommend, especially for coffee snobs who enjoy a good black cup of coffee with flavor!

Wow. + Flat White. It's not a latte bit similar. I had to get schooled and ended up ordering these when I needed something less milky. + Service is great! They are nice and let me sit there for hours using their free wi-fi while I worked. + Great vibe. I love the feel of the place. Corner tables and sofa occupy the limited seating. There is prime window seating to people watch. There is a bench outside the window to rendezvous with others. + Great music. I can't remember what was being played but I remember it was good and not loud. Why I am a Bond St Coffee Nonaddict -'s: - This place can get filled quickly so I have to hoof it somewhere else to park my ass and laptop. - Bathroom is sketch. Down a stairwell and not the cleanest. Toilet does flush.
