I got an espresso. It had a nice layer of crema and medium body with a smooth texture. It had fruity and nutty flavors balanced with mild acidity. More distinct flavor notes would have made it even better but overall a solid house blend. 4/5. They do offer single origin as well; however, I appreciated the barista's transparency-- sharing that they are not as dialed in on those for espresso and would recommend a pour over for those instead. read more

Monmouth Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

I've been coming to Monmouth for at least 20 years when I come to London...this time it feels like London has sprouted coffee shops like mushrooms after a rain storm...and Monmouth is still the best. Nice, comfortable place to sit inside or out--I don't care that it is small, that's part of the charm for me. The coffee and pasties are top notch. And the people are so nice both at the counter and the baristas--so positive and happy, they must like working there. Monmouth is still the one coffee shop to rule them all! read more

Monmouth Coffee - Flat white and a Bakewell tart - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

The coffee here is definitelyworth the hype. One thing worth noting is they don't do to go cups unless you buy one of their reusable ones so if you're just here visiting plan to drink your coffee at the restaurant. I got an iced latte with sugar. (they don't do syrups or flavoring) and it was delicious. You can definitely tell the coffee is high-quality. The lady behind the counter was extremely kind and patient despite how many people are waiting in line. read more

Super cool speciality coffee roaster. Indoor/outdoor seating. Coffee is roasted all over the world. I think there is a sampling which I missed? I ordered a latte, in retrospect a single origin drip may have been a better option. Perfect for a mid day pick me up. read more

Delicious coffee. The line can get long at times, but this is definitely one of the best coffee shops in London if you're looking for just great regular coffee, lattes or cappuccinos. I personally prefer the location near Borough Market, but that one gets even busier. read more

Great coffee in a central location, can be a zoo in there NOTE: Get the latte, it's pretty good NOTE: For takeaway orders there is a £5 charge for a reusable Monmouth branded coffee cup that is refunded upon return or you can keep using the cup. Had a latte for dine-in and ended up sitting at a table across the street since the inside can get a bit crowded since it's close quarters. Looks very cozy and some nice wooden seating. They also have an outside seating area and there are some other tables nearby read more

This has become my favorite coffee shop in London. Come here every single time I am in town. Super friendly staff with great coffee and good eats. If I lived in the area, I'd start my day here everyday! read more

This turned out to be such a delightful experience. The people were awesome and welcoming to everyone But The food was delicious and a very good value. We went in thinking of a croissant and a latte and left satisfied with a toast with salmon and the poached eggs and bacon a delight Ooo and the coffee is excellent Plus fresh juices and the like So many good places but this is a gem read more

Line out the door on a Saturday, but it moved pretty fast and the coffee is great. I had a flat white, and my boyfriend got an espresso. A note about the cup policy: They only have reusable cups here (no paper to-go cups). You pay a £5 deposit per drink upon ordering, which they refund when you return the cup. Kind of steep, especially if you're in a hurry or you're a tourist who won't necessarily be returning another day (you'll have to stand there and chug your coffee to get that £5 back), but definitely environmentally conscious. We ended up returning one cup, and keeping the other as a souvenir. read more

Some of the best coffee we have had. My wife and I always are looking for great coffee and unique locations when we travel. Our kids had recommended this location and it lived up to what they had also experienced. Service was great, coffee was outstanding and we bought beans to take home. read more

One of the best cups of latte I've ever had! Stopping in after hearing a friend's recommendation, this small cafe was packed with fans. The queue moves quickly thanks to the friendly and efficient staff. Since they don't do takeaway cups to help save the earth, I got my latte in a ceramics. There are a few tables inside and plenty outside. My latte was 3 pounds and perfectly crafted. read more

I get my twice daily poison here. Customer service is good. Coffee is better. Plenty of variety and quick turn around of variety. If you are looking for brand beans, look no more. For milky drinks buy their organic or non organic espresso blends. For anything else, choose your own adventure read more

So I usually get lattes, but they're known for their filtered coffee, so I thought I'd give it a go. I don't think it was anything out of the ordinary. It was a little sour for my taste, but at least it was strong. I was shaking after I finished my cup. I also got a brioche with it and thought it was ok as well. I think I'd give their latte a try next time. The price is not too bad given the popularity of the place--but I'm also comparing it to the outrageously overpriced coffee shops in NYC & SF read more

I've been to Monmouth once before several years ago and happily returned during a recent visit. Still a wonderfully small, charming, and popular location with some sidewalk seating out front and a small area inside with booths for those lucky enough to snag one. The main difference from my last visit is that they no longer offer take-away cups -- you instead must bring your own reusable cup or pay a 5£ deposit and they'll provide you with one that you can return on your next visit. I love this commitment to sustainability, but it makes it a tad tricky if you're not a local (and thus returning a cup is not convenient) and they don't have any place to seat you (thus forcing you to pay a deposit for a takeaway cup that you can't return -- but maybe a nice souvenir?). Lucky for me a table opened up as I made it to the front of the line so I didn't need to make the decision between leaving empty-handed/uncaffeinated or poor and with my morning coffee as I headed to the airport to catch my flight back home. The lesson here is: never leave home without your travel mug. Or perhaps it's don't leave coffee to the last minute. Or maybe sometimes things work out just the way they're meant to. So glad they did for me this trip. read more

we came for the light roast beans. lots of choices. short waiting line. great service. ended up with three kinds of beans tha should last us for the rest of our stay in London . very happy we found this place. read more

Alfie on one visit and Lydia on second visit at Borough Market location were excellent advisers on coffee bean selection Both provided my samples of the coffee beans that I was considering. Although the location was busy, they were both patient and knowledgeable read more

Monmouth Coffee offers the ideal coffee drinking experience, which for me means good coffee, a solid pastry, and also the opportunity to meet people. While this homely and cozy location is small, it seems to be really popular with the locals so space can fill up quickly. Being that it's also not too far from The British Museum and National Gallery, it's an ideal spot to get your caffeine fix before heading into either. I had a smooth warm latte as well as the best brioche I've ever had - a deceptively soft ball of bread with the right amount of hard sugar sprinkled on top. I was also seated in a table that was a community table and encouraged talking to strangers. Coincidentally, this was the morning Brexit was supposed to take place so it was very much on the minds of the strangers and soon to be friends I was seated with. We had a good and civil conversation about it with all points of view represented and I found it to be a enlightening experience that I feel wouldn't have happened had I not walked into Monmouth. The best souvenirs and memories you can take with you are such moments. read more

I was in a pinch for a cup of coffee, and I pulled into the parking lot of this small business. I was served immediately with a smile. The customer service was excellent, and the barista was kind enough to explain the difference between their coffee beans. I told them I would be back soon, and I will continue to support them. read more

- Long line filing out the door - One star is docked because they don't have non-dairy milk :( and I'm lactose intolerant so had to get a drip coffee - Maybe it was the long line and busy wait, but the coffee was super burnt. At the same time, it got me extremely hyped! (Didn't help that we went to the national museum after this) - I read most reviews that this tastes like Philz or Blue Bottle in the states, so I really wanted to like it - Would love to give this another try the next time I'm in town read more

If you like Blue Bottle and/or Intellegentsia then you will probably like this place. The coffee is good if you like the style of beans they use here... mostly the more citrus, tart, floral type. 3.10 pounds for a tiny (much smaller than a Starbucks tall) is pretty steep though. read more

Best Coffee in London. Few snacks offered like truffles, croissants or pain aux raisin breads. Very Limited seating. May have to share if you are seated in a large booth as the seating is communal. Most people take their coffee to-go. You can also buy their whole beans or ground for your own brewing pleasure :-) The lines can get long but they move fast. read more

Cool little spot, but there wasn't any seating available. It was very small and it was busy-- for good reason. The coffee was amazing!

This is the best coffee that I've had in London so far! The lines are sometimes really long but the quality of the coffee makes it worth the wait. It's a pretty standard trendy new-age coffee shop in most respects but that's exactly the kinda place that I'll spend all my money at. read more

One of the best coffee shops we've been to because of their exceptional coffee offerings. Some coffee shops, you go to for the ambiance plus taste. While ambiance is important, when we travel, taste ranks way higher when picking coffee shops to visit. Monmouth ranks high in our top list for taste and quality beans. This location is small and had a line out the door. Friendly and knowledgeable baristas. We got 2 coffees, an Indonesian and Ethiopian, plus a bag of the Indonesian. Wish we had gotten more beans because the coffees were excellent. Descriptions of the beans and sourcing was included in our purchase, which we loved reading about. Highly recommend and would definitely return! read more

Delicious coffee- no takeaway disposable cups- true environmentalists! You can pay 5 pound for a reusable cup and return for a refund anytime. Service was great and staff super pleasant. Small eat in area and outdoor seating. Didn't eats pastries but they looked outstanding. read more

As a tourist, you know you've done well with choosing a coffee place when our local London private tour guide asked how I knew to go to Monmouth for my morning coffee. On our first morning in London, we walked through Soho to the border of Covent Gardens on Monmouth Street to get my caffeine fix. The narrow space has a counter for take away and a small seating toward the back. I arrived on a busy Friday morning when the regulars were lining up for their morning coffee. They're definitely known for their flat whites and cappuccinos...a quick tip for Americans, they have whole milk only and if you are looking for a cafe au lait, it will take a bit of effort explaining it because they just don't do it this way in the UK. Remember to order your coffee for take away...if you ask for it "to go" you will surely be looked at a bit strangely. The counter staff here were super nice. We tried paying with a $10 British pound bill that apparently had been retired and replaced with new currency...so imagine how embarrassing that was when the gentleman asked if he could help us with our payment?! The croissant and brioche looked delicious. Several patrons took some for take away. I was so pleased with my coffee the first morning that I returned on our last day there...having tried other coffee shops on the days between, it became readily apparent that this is some of the best coffee in London and I now know why our tour guide had reacted the way she did when I told her I was grabbing a coffee for take away just like a local! read more

Decent coffee for the price that you're paying. I was pretty excited to try Monmouth Coffee after all of the hype it was receiving on instagram, but it's another cafe that is doing well because of it's interior-not because of it's products. Rather than spending close to $10 for a coffee here, opt out and go to any nearby coffee shop for the same experience, but cheaper. read more

Monmouth Coffee - Iced coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

Delicious coffee with friendly staff. The store was much smaller than anticipated, but we managed to grab a shared table in the back. Due to its lack in size, I did feel as I had to rush when making my order. I am not so accustomed to sharing table, but it was a great experience and we sat with a very pleasant German couple. It was also quite nice to sit as they provide you with water as you sit and enjoy your coffee! We got two lattes, an almond croissant, and a chocolate croissant. The lattes were great, but the croissants were not the best I've had--a bit on the dry side! Overall, great place, would come back for the coffee! read more

Feeling basic? To me, Monmouth is the star of London's hipster coffee scene! The aroma when you enter the store might make you think that their coffee is overly bitter, but that wasn't the case at all. This location has a much shorter wait time than the one in Borough Market. read more

good latte. good location. i like the sustainability of the lack of take away cups. however, i believe this place to be over hyped. i got a basic latte and thought it was a good cup of coffee, don't get me wrong but nothing mind blowing like i was expecting. read more

An independent coffee lovers heaven, Monmouth is my go-to for a nice cup of flat white, cappuccino or latte. I'm always tempted by the pastries and snacks counter as I make my order, and the rich chocolate truffle is an excellent pairing with the nutty roasted coffee. The only con is the huge crowd since it's adored by locals and tourists. But hey, you can always choose to takeout or sit-down. -- voodie rating: 8.5/10 -- Coffee £4 Chocolate truffle £2 read more
