Caffe Nero in Southwark - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A loyal cafe Nero fan. Wherever I got, the service is great and the standard constantly good.

Aug24- Stopped for small bit to eat for lunch on way to South Bank. They need more bins. Busy and wide range of food options. Great to see outdoor cafe style seating /tables. View to river Thames. Short walk from Blackfriars

Terrible service today. Pretty sure the male server didnt want to be at work. He couldnt be bothered to talk, no welcome, no thanks, no goodbye.. I was more polite than he was. To top it off, I asked for a Tea and he even clarified that it was with milk... I got down the road to find no milk, it was far too strong & I had to throw most of it away. The shop wasnt even busy, no other people were waiting, so If you cant even get a tea correct then that is not acceptable. Maybe some better customer training is in order.

Nice secluded space, plenty of seating.

poor service, inattentive and slow

Great cup of coffee, from the barista recommendation of Brazilian blend. Top marks for friendly service with big smiles 😊

Should be a flagship Cafe Nero as it sits right by the Thames inbetween the Tate Modern and the National Theatre. However the flagships are the ones with heavy footfall at London railway stations. This is a nice Cafe Nero, offering plenty of tables and toilets, but maintaining a calm quiet atmosphere

Recently came here for food and coffee. Staff members were friendly and helpful. Food was fresh. Tables were mostly dirty however from previous customers. Location is perfectly located right near the Thames River along the Queens Walk.

Recently came here for lunch while visiting London. Great food, great service, great location. Highly recommended if you enjoy a good coffee as well!

Very good Coffee with an amazing customer service. S/O Bilal with his smile and energy 🫡

What an absolute delight to discover this Caffe Nero. Great coffee, friendly staff, sat outside overlooking the Thames and they are open until 22:30. Result.

Good coffee. Tasty cookies. All good.

Great place to visit, their coffee is great and they offer plant based milk ♥️❤️

They do not accept QRs as payment method

Nice coffee and roll. Great staff.

Closing time is wrong. I visited the place according to Google closing hours but yesterday it just closed 07.30 pm. When I asked a person he advised the check the times right at the door. That's why I advise you to revise your timing in google. Because, this situation causes incorrect planning of the customer's visit.

I came to the shop at 9 30 0.m. and it was already shut.Shop assistant saw me, but they did not open the door.The working hrs on website state its open till 10 p.m. and I was walking 40 min from another shop to get my staff from Nero. Bad service, very misleading.

Busy and a bit messy. Coffee 6/10 Tables not regularly cleaned and needed to be wiped down by us before using.

View of the Thames..tub armchairs, toilets, all good.

Walking by the river, we stop for a coffe. Barista Fatima was great - she made perfect cappuccino and excellent latte. She was very welcoming, smiling and chatty. Thank you Fatima for being great😎

Quite a large Café with upstairs seating. Very busy when we arrived but managed to share a table with another couple. Coffee offering up to the usual standard for a Caffe Nero with a good selection of toasties, sandwiches and cakes. As ever my usual bugbear with these types of establishment is the tables are not cleared quickly enough with cups and plate piled on top of each other. The toilet (yes only one) was also in a poor state, and not just because it was dirty from customers.

Nice place to stop for a drink and snack by the river, the single loo for quite a large shop isn't ideal.

I stopped by while walking along the river Thames with my friend. It was very cold outside, so we were able to take a break and warm up. The staff were so kind, it warmed my heart.

It's always good to pop in for coffee and tea on a cold day happy customer 😊

Coffee too bitter, tea not what was requested, porridge cold and runny. Tables dirty despite there being few customers. And no toilets.

Regular, el servicio bastante bien, pero si quieres ir al baño tienes que salir del local e ir bastante lejos a unos baños públicos y sucios…

Food was dry, coffee was so so. Service was horrible. This place is for tourists where no regulars should go.

Toilets were out of order and coffee was extremely bitter, but overall a decent place to stop for a drink and snack.

Rude staff and takes 20 minutes to get a simple coffee

Excruciatingly slow service, and my order was incorrect twice. Avoid.

Worst taste of hot chocolate they don’t even have cream

Good coffee shop on South Bank. No views of the river, but well placed with a good ambience.

A 20 minute queue for a £3.40 cup of coffee? ‘Bacon’ rolls with gristly smoked ham, not bacon.

No toilets available for customers.

Always worth a stop of to rest the tired legs. Hot chocolate always good

Very nice Cafe Nero, it's worth a visit to Drink and Eat here.

Great service, fresh, and friendly staff, especially the trainee Gabriel!

Went for a quick coffee/hot chocolate. Lovely people greeted me and had a fun chat while she prepared our order. Good atmosphere, great location and nice coffee/hot chocolate!

A place where you can sit by the Thames and have a coffee or get a great coffee to go. The staff is friendly and helpful. It's worth sitting down and drinking a Cappuccino or a double espresso.

This is the one by the National Theater on South Bank. The place was spacious and there were outdoor seatings on the back side. The barister was friendly and efficient. I only ordered a Mocha with oatmilk. It was delicious. The place was clean and there is a bathroom in this cafe

Дуже гарні співробітники, смачна кава, працюють до пізнього вечора, на відміну від інших кафе недалеко від набережної. Однозначно супер для вечірніх посиденьок

Awful caffe nero ever , came at 19:50 on 12th of October , everything was closed, toilet is close, outside sit in area close 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

A good place to grab a coffee. The on in the Oxo tower is a little manic and dilapidated but the staff offer a good service. Didn't wait long for drinks.

Lovely hot chocolate and cheesecake

Just stopped for moccacino. Batista recommended the new espresso (El Salvador?). Was quite good.

De espresso is redelijk. De Americano te slap, ondanks het verzoek om weinig water. Blijkbaar maakte een 'leerling' deze. Het is rommelig. Ik heb zelf het tafeltje af moeten ruimen.

Ive been going here for about 20 years? Great spot. Nice coffee. Busy place.. Needs more toilets

The staff were super helpful! Ten stars! We left a phone on one of the seats, and the next morning they had it in the back office and gave it back to us. Honest people exist, and they are here at Caffe Nero. Thank you!

The barista was not very motivated to serve the long line of customers. He was having private conversations with colleagues, was working very slow and gave a rude answer to my question about a drink.

Great position! Coffee and hot milk was warm at best.

Extrem freundlicher und schneller Service, leckerer Café, sehr schöne Lage direkt an der Themse (Steg führt aufs Wasser)

I was there with my friend, and we both had toasted cheese sandwiches, and he had coffee, and i had hot chocolate.

My first time here ordered the vanilla milkshake. It was very refreshing. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and the location has a riverside view.

The coffee was delicious. Very tasty. The place was calme to work or to just relax.

Warm reception and delicious drinks.

Happy friendly great staff, great work

Hi, can I have a black coffee please? Yes sure would you like to try our new beans? Sure why not, sounds good! Oh wait a minute you didn’t tell me that it’s £1.50 extra for the new beans? Oh yeah that’s life, deal with it. That’s how we make so much money! By swindling our customers and providing really terrible and slow service in a bland and dirty environment. Please come again! Not!!!

Not one to write reviews but I really do not warm to one of the current managers here; overly keen to chat with some of the female customers (myself and other customers I saw come in after me) and unnecessarily, embarrassingly rude to the male customers (bad case of a God complex). Place closes at 10pm, I got there at 7 and he’d already blocked off over half the seating area & the toilet — a few people tried to use it and once again , unnecessarily rude and condescending. Fully blocked off where we were sitting **whilst** we were sitting in it. Used to enjoy coming to this cafe as an evening study spot, rest assured I won’t be coming back! In my hour sitting there the atmosphere was unpleasant, overly involved in our private conversation and generally just left people feeling uncomfortable. Acted like he was running a bar rather than a coffee shop 😭

Nice place next to the River with good openning times,is hard to find a place open untill 10 pm to have a late tea or coffee

my order arrived i ordered frappe/milkshakes and got half full cups of ice lattes with syrup in a small cup and some form of powder in the other not at all what i asked for

Handy place for Barge House at OXO tower

OK, and not exorbitantly priced, unlike the rest of London

Standard Caffe Nero with all the usual menu selections. There are more imaginative eating and drinking options further down the Thames Path, but when I was there it had the benefit of being half empty. There are a few outdoor tables round the back, though I thought inside was nicer.

The cappuccino and croissant was good.

The review will be contradicted as we’ve been going to this Nero actually often, because it’s in a nice location, spacious, it has good music and nice ambiance. However we never use the toilet as it’s disgusting…even if we wanted to, last time was out of service for weeks…the staff is very slow, regardless if it’s only like 3 people in line. They have 2-3 staff but only one takes the order and makes the coffee even if it’s busy. I understand there are many other things to do, but any other places prioritise customer service and the staff would help each other when it is busy, and not letting 1 person to do everything …It’s frustrating for the barista and the customers too. The system is weird in regards paying. Every other place I go, you give your order, pay, step aside and get the drink after. Here you don’t pay until you get the drink so the line would not move, you can’t even sit down until your drink is done. The tables don’t seem to be cleaned frequently. But all in all, once we have our drink and sit down, the view and atmosphere are enjoyable.

Best one and stays open till 10pm so best place for coffee

Nice quiet spot to enjoy a coffee in the sun just yards away from the hustle & bustle of the south bank walkway.

Breath of freshness in a hot afternoon! I tried the Pistachio Iced Latte and the Salty Carmel Cheesecake! Delicious and can recommend it! The Cafe has a welcoming flair and the people are very kind! Thumbs up!

Lovely coffee but the place was very untidy rubbish left on nearly every table.

Good coffee but very slow service

Its a cafe Nero in a very busy location all of your following assumptions based on this knowledge would be correct You will spend a good while waiting for coffee which is better than most chains but worse than most independents It is also very dark which is fine but am interesting choice considering how bright and airy the location surrounding it is, has a strange underground feel

Disgusting behaviour of the staff which is quite unusual for London in our experience. One and a half hours prior to closing time refused to serve food, were upset over an order of an iced coffee, closed the toilet and refused to open it, the place was dirty and extremely badly maintained. Lazy and rude staff. There are way better locations of cafe Nero or other coffee chains nearby.

Awesome coffee and bakery items.

One of the few places in London I was able to order a quad-shot Latte without raised eyebrows. Lovely Pastries. Husband, starved for a coffee shop that actually “smelled like coffee” was very pleased with my find.

Really lovely staff. Loved the flavour of the luxury hot chocolate and loved the chocolate cake a lot

Lovely stuff they are amazing and helpful

Kind staff, delicious coffee and cookies. Unfortunately they have only one toilet which was discusting.

Heerlijke koffie gedronken, personeel was vriendelijk, wc proper

Nice to have coffee along the South Bank.

Nice coffee and cakes but typically of most coffee joints. Most of the staff appear to be baristas in training though. There was a queue outside the toilet all the time we spent here!

홋 초콜렛 맛 좋음 춥고 비와서 들어갔다가 30분 잘 쉬다 나옵니다. 빈자리 컵 안치워진데가 너무 많아 별 -1개 ㅎㅎ

Service is nope! No smile, no have a good day, thank you. it seems we annoy them. Q is super long… this team needs training!

I've given this Nero 3 stars overall because despite having 3 staff, 2 trainees and a manager on site... there were numerous piles of used cups, plates and cutlery around the café. No excuse for that kind of laziness, which just ruins the mood/experience. I enjoy Nero but would not recommend this branch over others.

The atmosphere feels cosy, esp I went there on a very cold and wet day.

Luogo accogliente dove fare colazione a Londra, buono anche L’Espresso

Entramos a por un café, e ir al aseo. El café inbebible, el aseo estropeado y cerrado al público (o eso dijeron) y más sucio todo imposible. Lxs camareros unos siesos.

Coffee was good. Messy, dirty place.

Excellent coffee in a proper ceramic cup. The first proper cup of coffee for some while. Paper cups make the coffee rare foul. Also nice and warm with good service.

This coffee shop was slow service and tables not cleared for new customers and the toilets were revolting.

Went for coffee on boxing day.. the mess in the toilet is disgusting. Last check they done 8.22 am.. we here 20.22…. Please avoid. Never stop here again.

Nice coffee. Nicely located opposite the river with good views. Open longer hours. Service is great.

Very friendly staff and good service

Avoid, we went yesterday and to say the toilets were dirty is an understatement. There was a flood from either the toilet or sink and the colour of the liquid was not clear. I wonder where the staff use the toilets and was their hands.

Wymienita kawa ☕️ klimatyczne miejsce 🌞

I simply love this place, the coffee is good, has a decent selection of pastries, but what I love the most is that it is open late, late, late! When we were doing the Queen queue at 5 am in the morning, Nero coffee shops by the riverside where opened for us, it was a great feeling to enjoy a hot coffee after walking for more than 8 hours knowing that we needed batteries for another 5 hours walking! Wherever I go in London, Nero coffee shops are my safe haven :)

Un endroit très chaleureux, mais une organisation déplorable à se tirer les cheveux. Une queue immense avec beaucoup de monde qui attendait, deux petites jeunes filles qui étaient en formation étaient seule derrière le bar avec le manager qui les regardait simplement sans bouger le petit doigt pendant que les clients attendent 30 minutes pour un café. Un cruel manque de professionnalisme, à la limite du ridicule.

Would give it a 5 if the toilet wasn't smelling straight up urine!! Also cheesecake was a bit old I guess...

Great location, good service and good selection of food and drink

We enjoy a time thank you so much

Seriously?! There are 3 staff, a queue of thirty people, and one of the staff members is restocking sandwiches.... at midnight! Congrats on staying open to service the queue, but why oh why are not more baristas making coffee, rather than messing about with sandwiches! There are policemen in the queue, who, like me, have been waiting over 15 minutes to order..... Serving customers should be the priority, not checking stock levels 🙄
