9 London Road in Southwark

Great place for having breakfast! Lovely staff and delicious food!

Such a nice place where to come for food. The ambiance is so nice and the food is even more amazing, so happy that i came here for breakfast. Will be back again

Got the American Breakfast with fresh OJ. Delicious meal. I often try new places, this is likely my new breakfast spot when in London.

What a lovely find! The family running this place are so sweet and the food is delicious and fresh and feels like it's prepared with love. Great for breakfasts and veggie friendly. And just generally a really nice atmosphere

Great little cafe. Excellent food and service. Would highly recommend

Stopped by for breakfast. The place is really nice. Doesn’t have much of the typical standard interiors. Decorated by someone with a personality. Service was quick and very friendly. Ordered the traditional English breakfast and the food was really good. Lots of bacon on the plate. The espresso was quite strong but also good.

This cafe is great, we eat breakfast or lunch there a lot and it is always fresh and tasty. Service is superb, always a smiling face and quick food. Thoroughly recommend.

Our favorite breakfast/coffee in Southwark! The staff is incredible and the food is made with love ❤️

Very nice little restaurant, a varied menu for breakfast. Dishes as pretty as they are good.

I know this cafe for more than 5 years now, and now it is open 7 days a week. Tasty food, reasonably priced, very friendly staff. Can get busy at lunch hour so be sure to arrive early to get a seat.

Great service, very kind and quick! Food and coffee was great, the only let down were the cakes, i believe you could do much better than these, maybe some authentic turkish cakes?

Amazing place 100% would recommend

Excellent calm atmosphere with delicious food (breakfast for us). Service was very pleasant and felt like home. We enjoyed it with our girls. Thank you!

Fantastic corner cafe within easy reach of Elephant and Castle Station. Good food on a bustling Saturday lunchtime.

One of the best Turkish breakfasts I have tried I recommend

I was blown away by this place. Plenty of tasty food presented in a beautiful way, nice service and great atmosphere. I would definitely go back there.

Oh mate, this café is an absolute gem! Their croissants are just perfect—golden, flaky, and buttery, proper Parisian style. And the coffee? Smooth, rich, and just the right kick to get you going. Proper good vibes and, a lovely atmosphere—can’t go wrong with it! The best👍🏻 cafe, I would recommend to all of you.

Paid £5.30 for me to have powder at the bottom of my drink:( nothing was mixed properly and tasted grainy and awful. Made it with whole milk the first time after asking for coconut milk. Had to wait for another drink to be made. Overall, not very happy.

Excellent, plentiful and very warm welcome. You will not be disappointed😋

Classic british food served here, great taste and vibe!

Love this cafe, great food, amazing coffee and lovely staff every time.

Really nice coffee and very fresh orange juice. Croissant was excellent as well. Rest of the food coming out the kitchen looked good so would visit again

Incredible food and amazing service. Turkish breakfast and menemen are incredible.

Nice cosy cafe with various options for breakfast. Everything is very delicious. The owner is kind, and the atmosphere is excellent. I can definitely recommend this place.

I liked the cafe, delicious food and a pleasant atmosphere, I recommend visiting

French-Irish family on vacation in London. Every breakfast had at Art Cafe London and it was a real pleasure. Warm welcome, super friendly staff and delicious food. A great time every morning!

Very pleasantly surprised. The eggs Benedict was especially delicious! They have a turmeric latte which I tried, didn't really like it but I can see the appeal (and some others in my party loved it, especially with coconut milk). They also have various Turkish dishes, which seeing as the staff speak fluent Turkish, are probably pretty good too!

An excellent breakfast of menemen (Turkish scrambled eggs) and great coffee. Loads of delicious breakfast options, cakes sandwiches and hot lunch dishes with friendly service.

Friendly little café with a nice atmosphere, warmly decorated. Very nice service, delicious food. Good selection of breakfast, also vegetarian. Easily accessible, located directly on a large road. Food is freshly prepared.

Great café with a warm atmosphere and welcoming staff. Had lunch here before visiting the Imperial War Museum, which isn't too far of a walk. I had ordered a the chicken and sun-dried tomatoes panini with freah mint tea, both of which would great. Would recommend if you were wanting to eat outside of the IWM or if you so happen to be in the area for other reasons.

Wonderful hospitality, had a really good breakfast there a few times. Definitely a place to come back to. And beautiful art on the walls too!

Went there after university and had the Turkish breakfast. The food was nice and the staff was very polite. Would recommend if you're in the area.

This was such a wonderful find! We had a lovely experience at this cafe in elephant and castle, the food was great, coffee was amazing and service was excellent. We tried out the smoothies and freshly squeezed orange juice, we had a breakfast and a panini , as well as cakes between the four of us. We will most definitely be back!

Super nice little cafe with a great breakfast, delicious cakes and very nice staff. Gladly again and only recommended

Lovely little cafe, very friendly, lovely food and plenty of it, good mug of tea and all very reasonably priced. Good job, would definitely recommend and will return when back in the area

Delicious food. The brunch is especially good.

Wonderful full English breakfast.

I was looking for lunch in the area and found this cafe. I ordered the dish of the day which is salmon and couscous, and it was amazing. (I devoured the dish before I remember to take a photo of it) In addition, the cafe has a nice atmosphere and the staff are friendly.

The best English breakfast in town. Great service

Great service and experience. Staff are so warm and welcoming. I felt right at home. Thank you so much to Antonio, Serhat and Nagin for the exceptional service!

Delicious breakfast. Very cute and low-key atmosphere as well.

Such a wonderful, friendly place to grab breakfast, a sandwich, or a coffee with a slice of delicious cake. Customers are treated so warmly, it feels like family. Nice eggs bennie and a pannini on this visit. Highly recommend.

Always friendly, always efficient. Noticed no one had a menu picture up, here you go!

Super tasty food (also good vegetarian options)! And very friendly staff!

Passed by there and i was very hungry, i was with my best friend and decided to step and eat. It was a great experience, we had breaded chicken with roasted potatoes and roasted veg salad which was very tasty. There were much more stuff to chose from so you should give it a try, lots of vegetarian dishes as well to create, even pizza and burgers as well. Thank you very much, lovely experience.

The paninis were really tasty as were the hot drinks.

Perfect for a quick stop or a work call!

Really lovely cafe. Super friendly staff and good food, would recommend!!!

Visited Arts Cafe recently and was impressed! The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious coffee made it a delightful experience. The Spicy chicken panini was a standout, perfectly balanced with fresh ingredients. Definitely recommend for a relaxing coffee break or casual meal."

went there a week ago with some friends. the place is lovely, such a shame its nowhere to be found on social media.

So delicious. I'm glad I went. Food was delicious. And I liked it.

Always an excellent visit. Great food. Great coffee

Beautiful from outside, astounding menu and friendly vibe. I had a very tasty spinach layer sauce and my partner had perfect poached eggs on toast. The coffee was smooth n rich with warmed oat milk on the side..... everything perfect!

Great lunch, great vibe, coffee could've been better!

Foods ok bacon and sausage not to my liking thick bacon and herby sausage that could be cooked longer! Nice presentation reasonable service.

The best cafe around Elephant Castle. Super friendly staff, a strong WIFI connection and great food

Best place in town for breakfast, they have everything, sweet and salty, and everything is super delicious. Very good attention from the staff, especially Antonio, who speaks Spanish perfectly. We will repeat! 😍

Great cafe, not particularly cheap but food is excellent and service amazing.

Lovely cafe in Elephant and Castle

This is a gem of a cafe. Stumbled across this morning and have had lovely food and great service. Worth a stop!

My Eggs Royale was delicious and fresh - made to order, super friendly staff, excellent menu variety, affordable, well presented food and super tasty latte. Will definitely be returning and recommending. Thank you

I had a toastie and a cup of tea here on a very short break from local college and the service was speedy, high quality food and helped me transfer to take away cups. I look forward to coming back soon

My go to cafe in elephant and castle

I really enjoyed early morning at this place ;-)) Everything was clean and staff is definitely its strongest point; gentleman who greeted me was warm and attentive ;-)) From the moment I stepped in, their genuine hospitality made me feel nice ;-)) I had a coffee & an almond cake - paid £5.40. Later on my son joined me and he had ham& cheese panini, which I couldn’t help but feel that the price was slightly inflated for what it was £6.50 - no side salad or I didn’t feel that it was a home made bread neither. However my son was so hungry I didn’t have a time to take a picture ;-)) Despite this, the cozy ambiance and the excellent service from the staff made up for it, making it a worthwhile visit overall and I will definitely be returning ;-)) As the last thing as always - bathroom was clean and everything you need was there ;-))

I'd say this is a hidden gem of the city. Nice and cosy interior, happy personnel, gorgeous food and loveley view to the street of passing by city movement. Absolutely enjoyable place. 👌🏻

Excellent food, a little pricey for a country lad but not bad considering the location.

Very nice place as there really are people painting here. Food is also interesting. You should enjoy this place

The place is cozy, found it randomly near the war museum. The chicken lasagna is great :) coming back next time in London for sure

Exelente sitio para comer o tomar algo muy agradable y ambiente muy tranquilo

Fantastic place for breakfast! Great service and very friendly indeed! Loved the ambience ! Must come if you wan good traditional English BF and super coffee

Lovely spot for breakfast - glad I stopped by.

We had an English breakfast at Art Cafe London, and the atmosphere was delightful. The service staff were genuinely welcoming. Exceptional quality of both the food and the coffee. It's a hidden gem worth discovering.

Visited the Art Cafe for lunch on three occasions last week whilst attending a BSL course nearby. Warm friendly atmosphere, great staff and lovely food options. Turkish breakfast beautiful with great coffee.

Leckeres kleines Café zum Frühstücken. Wir haben es dem teuren Hotel Frühstück vorgezogen!

Lovely little cafe. The staff are so lovely and friendly, it's always a pleasure to visit. I feel very lucky to have such a lovely independent cafe so nearby. The food is so fresh and delicious, the freshly made juices are great and the cakes always succeed in tempting me. And it's all reasonably priced. Love this place

The food and coffee it's amazing. The service it's kind and so good. I love the ambient it's calm and relax.

Fresh orange juice, salmon and avocado toast with 3 poached eggs, and a granola bowl with fruits and seeds. Friendly staff as well. Good place to do some work as there is wifi and were a handful of people working.

Stopped in for a late morning bite and had a delicious chai latte and panini! Service is attentive and quick. Food is tasty and fresh!

Staff friendly and welcoming and always ready to if you need it and the cafe is kept very clean

Lovely place. Fresh salads and hot meals. Relaxed atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Lovely local cafe with fresh food daily, and great coffees! Super friendly staff, highly recommend!

Always pass this cafe on my commute, and never had a chance to experience of ordering anything till today. The staff are really friendly, had a nice chat about commuting to work with bikes with a nice lady. Ordered carrot cake and mocha, which came to £6.80.. which is pretty good price considering it’s the city. I think they do other foods too, but I didn’t have time to explore the menu… Clean throughout the shop itself, looks like a kitchen cross dining room with the style and dishes, which is a bonus in my opinion. Anyway, if you happen to be in this area, give the cafe a visit. ☺️

Such a lovely cafe. Breakfast is delicious. You must go if you are around!

A warm, cosy cafe with the loveliest staff members, a range of good food options, good coffee and great value for money.

I highly recommend the Art Cafe London for anyone looking for a delicious breakfast, lunch, or cakes and snacks. All of the food is handmade and tastes fantastic. The team working there is also amazing; they always provide top-notch service and contribute to the welcoming atmosphere. I definitely give this place a five-star rating and love everything about it!

Lovely breakky, very well cooked (maybe the owner does not use the top quality ingredients for their breakfast bits but still.. very good and plentiful. Lovely staff

Very nice, clean and cozy cafe. More like a delicatessen with a cafe. Nice atmosphere. Nice coffee. Nice staff. Nice cakes. I would have tried their food if I wasn't in a rush. They all looked nice. I should come back soon.

Great English breakfast close to Imperial War Museum! I really loved this place!

Love coming here for my coffee! The service is great, always welcomed with a smile. Nice and cosy cafe

Amazing place with amazing food. I had the Turkish Breakfast alongside the vegetarian pasta bake. The staff were really nice. I was served by Connor, I think that was his name as well as Ayna. The hot chocolate was delicious and I liked the creamy top, it was very chocolately. Highly recommend this place if you’re ever by Elephant & Castle.

OMG I loved this place. Foods are amazing. Definitely recommended.

Always top quality food, lovely staff and warm welcoming atmosphere. I go here regularly, but my lunch today was top notch - poached eggs perfect, hash browns crunchy yet soft, avocado toast so good and grilled fresh tomatoes a perfect combo.

Such lovely, friendly staff and owner. The egg butty is amazing - they use proper crusty rolls 🙌🏽

Such a nice cafe… cakes and snacks homemade and some nice pie. It feels like eating at home while being in a cafe

Such a cute little place! Food was really good at a fairly decent price. Would definitely come here again if I was in the area

I had the Turkish breakfast, was really nice. Light but filling. Will definitely come back again, thank you.

I only had coffee. The service was very friendly and shop has a very relaxing atmosphere.

Absolute gem of a place to have anything from morning coffee, to a full English breakfast or a healthier option. Same at lunchtime and dinner, where everything is homemade. Excellent service to.

The humble BLT sandwich was amazing - bacon was perfect, fresh lettuce, generous mayo, soft bread. 10/10 couldn't imagine a better BLT, was not expecting it to be so good. Nice artsy cafe, lady next to me was drawing and a fun mix of locals. Service was v good and quick even though it was pretty busy. Will be back!

Lovely little cafe. Food was lovely and fresh (quiche was delicious. Place is clean and very homely
