Lack of oxgyen upstairs and hot chocolate is way to sweet

Poor service, very unfriendly. I went upstairs and the place was a mess. There were several tables covered in old coffee cups, trays on chairs, liquid spilled on the floor. I would understand if it was busy but it really wasn't. Staff seemed to chatting to each other downstairs. I will definitely go elsewhere in future.

Lovely little Nero's in Kingston, near to Kingston station and Kingston College. Great for students to go for a chill-out session after class, or to pick up a snack (or cheeky desert!) for lunch. I absolutely adore Nero's, and this branch is no different. I recommend the chocolate and hazelnut frappé in the summer months, to keep you cool- there's also the lemonade spritz, which is a nice option too (you can have it with a mix-in base of fruit- mango or peach, I believ) if you want something more basic, but that feels just a little bit fancy compared to your average bottle of store-bought stuff. Don't forget to collect your stamps!

I visited the first Caffè Nero Drive Thru in the world at Stansted Airport on the day it opened. 4/5/2024. I found the staff very pleasant and helpful and enjoyed a coffee break and later, a lunch break. The food and drinks were excellent with a large selection of choice.

This was the first Cafe Nero I ever went to 18 years ago as originally from the area, back then it was pleasant but now in dire need of a refurbishment. The downstairs is too cramped especially when it's busy. Upstairs is dirty and tables not cleared, toilets are filthy. Code for toilets only given if you ask which causes unnecessary stress. Won't return again.

I wouldn't even give this place a star rating... only because it doesn't let me write a review. I have been going to this place for the past 5 years and I have never faced such discrimination by one of the members there who claim to be the managers. You pay over £4 for a hot chocolate that tastes like dark chocolate and on top get told by the rude manager "that you may have covid". she has was so disrespectful, rude, unprofessional and I certainly cannot believe how Caffè Nero has even hired her as a manager. I have never been humiliated over the 5 years and for a glass of hot chocolate that I paid for in front of all the customers to get shouted at was completely sad. PLEASE GUYS I KNOW CAFFE NERO MAKES NICE DRINKS BUT THIS BRANCH REALLY NEEDS SOME REVISION AND YOU WILL RATHER BE SITTING IN A FRIENDLY, CLEAN ATMOSPHERE INSTEAD OF THIS ONE. I was asked to leave, that I had covid, not to ever come back, kissed her teeth at me and also faced a lot of discrimation because I was a Indian. I hope that Caffè Nero do read my review and actually, do something about this lady there who had blonde hair (no discrimination but needs to identified) who claims to be the manager of the place.

Very friendly service, the staff were affable and chatty to customers and great interactions going on. Needed a change of scenery, so used the upstairs area to remote work. The large windows bring in lots of natural light. Place is grubby though, with warm out furniture and tables, and needs a thorough deep clean. Toilet is yucky. No complaints with my latte, good cuppa.

My 3 year old was desperate to use the toilet so I asked a member if staff if he could use the toilet and he refused stating that I would have to find a public toilet! I pretty much begged him saying my son was desperate and couldn’t hold it any longer so finding another toilet wasn’t an option and he still flat out refused saying it was for customers only! I had to resort to buying something just so my toddler could use the toilet which was absolutely disgusting. It was filthy dirty, blocked, had pee on the seat and hadn’t been cleaned in god knows how long. I get that there may be people that abuse the facilities but to refuse a 3 year old child the use of the toilet is disgusting in my opinion!

Coffee is standard Nero coffee and the staff are good. Seating seems to be placed so you don't want to sit there very long. It was cold outside when I went and the only table available was by the door. This meant when it opened it was very cold, especially when a 3 different people stood holding the door open! Had a toastie and have to say, I have definitely had many better. Not somewhere I would rush back to

You need a code to use the toilet and yet the toilet is the most disgusting unhygienic filthy dirty place! It's worse than the public toilets you used to find around town. Strong smell of urine and dirty walls. If I had used the toilet before I ordered my drinks I would not have stayed. It says a lot about the standards of cleanliness and I think in a place where people eat and drink everywhere should be spotless. Maybe that's just me?

We booked the bottomless brunch on the 31st August. We was expecting a live DJ as advertised on the website. When we arrived there was no DJ and when we asked about it we was told that unfortunately the DJ cancelled. We was told we could play music through our phone! They then took ages to serve us our drinks during the bottomless timescale, and overcharged us on our bill. They also charged us a service charge for very poor service! It was a massive let down, especially as this was part of a hen weekend. The place was empty aswell & i'm not surprised. I wouldn't recommend.

I'm a big fan of this pub! I enjoy sitting at the bar, sports being on, how it looks and how the managers/ owners kick out non-customers trying to use the toilet. It is a classic pub, I can't comment on the food, never eaten there. Some of the staff behind the bar could be a bit friendlier, but the service is quick enough. The only thing is it closes fairly early which is a shame, but that's life. Please go and have a pint at the bar!

The Antelope is a large, comfortable, classically furnished pub, with a spacious garden. Good meals, eclectic range of music, all on vinyl and is staffed by lovely, friendly people and attracts a broad variety of custom. They sell a wide selection of interesting and ever changing beers, plus beers from Big Smoke's own brewery in Esher. Always a nice experience! This is a comment about Big Smoke, as opposed to the pub: I've keenly supported Big Smoke pubs and beers since they began, but I've not had the same enthusiasm since they ruined one of their best beers- Solaris Pale, a couple of years ago. Without dissecting the flavour profile, it was a wonderful beer, with huge popularity, so surprising they could give up on it, it always featured on my visits to Big Smoke pubs. The replacement for it is a totally different beer style; I couldn't get on with it and felt it was inferior and having chatted with many others, of varying tastes, ages etc, this seems to be the general consensus! I think their reasoning was something to with being quite an expensive and operationally more complicated beer to produce, for what it was and incongruous with the American type pales, they were mostly brewing. Still- Non-sensical, given the massive quantities they were turning over! Ultimately, it's their business model but what really annoyed me was the continued use of the name. Having built up a massive following and they having put a lot of money into the branding and copyright of the name, they didn't want to give it up. However, I think to continue using an established and loved brand, to sell a totally different product is quite dishonest and misleading to customers! Sorry for the rant but that's why I'm not as into Big Smoke as I once was!
