Canela in Richmond upon Thames

Wow!! Very fresh food and menu. Nothing “fancy” but very, very good!! Excellent chef! Family run and worth a visit!

We went to visit Hampton Castle in the morning and rather than eating in the castle's cafes with all the crowds of tourists, we opted for a cafe restaurant close to the station. The canela is very cute, the staff was welcoming and we ate well (smoked salmon salad and empanadas).

Very Nice Coffee shop, very Clean and staff is very Friendly, and the food is very Delicious 🤤

Lovely coffee and breakfast as always. Was in this morning and have just seen the review about the dog, just wanted to add that I also saw the dog being sick and was surprised the owners didn't notice. Staff was very busy but let the cafe owner know seemimgly who went to clean it up. Will be back next weekend. Thank you!

*EDIT* SO.....accordinging to owner, staff saw our dog being sick, if this was the case (which it wasn't) why did they just keep quiet - you would think as a dog-friendly cafe they would alert us, not just watch but that's hypothetical as it didnt happen !!! Recently discovered this coffee shop, visited this morning for a coffee with our little dog (as place is described as "dog friendly") whilst quietly enjoying our coffee a man came from the back kitchen and asked "is this your dog ?" Which obviously it was as we had hold of her lead, she was just laid down peacefully- he the passively aggressively told us our dog had been sick - I informed him it wasn't our dog but he obviously didn't believe us (if you are a dog owner you cannot miss your dog being sick as they make so much noise retching !!!) MADE US FEEL VERY AWKWARD - We won't be going back again, many more coffee shops to choose from. If our dog was being sick we would of a) taken her outside or b) if too late would offer to clear up.

Nice little shop…eclectic decor. Pleasant staff. Great food!!!

Incredible food! A delightful find!

Sensational find. The fried (GF) tortilla with spicy beans and avocado was the best food of a long weekend.

What a gorgeous and characterful cafe! Thoughtfully designed and great coffee.

Excellent cafe! We did Bushy Parkrun today and called into this cafe after. Beautiful place, cosy atmosphere, food was great (brunch) and the staff were great. Thank you 🙏

This gorgeous quirky café is testament that top quality food homemade with love can be found away from home! Delicious

decent prices, service was very polite and prompt, my food was great & very cute interior with all the plants, will return & recommend to visit!

This might well be the best ham and cheese bagel I’ve ever had. Keep it up.

Lovely breakfast and very friendly staff

Amazing fresh healthy food and great value 👌👌😋😋 Highly recommend and you must try their cakes 😋😋

Good coffee, and the best walnut coffee cake ever.

Unfortunately for us 2 lovely young girls served us. But they didn't know how to priorities . Not their fault Sunday staff ! Thought it was a lovely place But we left not happy 😕

Great little cafe right opposite Hampton Court Station. Thr Quinoa and Salmon Salad, and carrot cake are recommended

We were on our way from Hampton Court Palace and we were struggling to find a cab and began to get frustrated. Until we walked into Canela Cafe! They were so inviting and helped us right away and called a cab for us. Since there was going to be a little bit of a wait, we sat down and enjoyed some iced coffee, smoothies, and brownies which were just delicious! Amazing service, amazing people, amazing food.

Lots of character - is bigger inside than it looks from the front! Good food and friendly service

Amazing food. Best cafe food I've had and the owner and staff are so friendly. I ordered just avo on toast and look at the picture!

Reasonably priced delicious food, 5 star service and vibe

Super cute vibes, lovely food and just an all round amazing place.

A very good little café, with delicious sandwiches and cakes. The people working here are very nice! A great discovery at Hampton court!

It was not my first visit to Canela. On previous visits I only had coffee and was happy with the quality of coffee and service. On this occasion, I was disappointed with the service, and this is reflected in the poor rating. I ordered a coffee and a warm sandwich. The sandwich was very good, but the salad garnish was odd. It included some cooked cauliflower and weird fried (?) cabbage. My coffee arrived 20 minutes after my sandwich, and only after I had to chase it.

Perfect for lunch or coffee when visiting Hampton Court Palace. Great, freshly-prepared food. Good service. Reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

Very nice place and excellent food

Really lovely food. We had plantain and yuca dishes. Really nice environment and lovely food well presented.

What a hidden Gem! We saw good reviews online so we took a chance on it and were not disappointed. Food was just excellent, check this place out

Lots of nice cafes in the area but we were pleased with our choice! Great options on the menu including a range of fresh juices and smoothies along with all the hot drink options. We had a late, a cappuccino, a full breakfast and my wife had the salmon and scrambled eggs breakfast. Both were delicious. Would certainly recommend. Lovely friendly service. Beautiful selection of cakes, it was a hard decision!

Lovely food, great service. Wonderful place.

Great, cosy cafe serving delicious coffee and cakes. I've resisted the savoury options so far but they look truly yummy but I don't think I will hold out much longer!!!!

Amazing food, freshly cook on every dishes! 😍

The best secret to Hampton Court, fresh homemade food. Big portions highly recommended the arepas and plantain dishes.

Very cozy place. 🥰 And the food was really good. I loved the arepa 💕. We went with our puppy as it is dog friendly. Thank you!

What a splendid little stop over, really authentic little cafe in middle of Hampton Court village, we had a cheeky HC and coffee, people were eating and food looked good 🙌☕️🍫🎄🎅

Nice little cafe with a lot of character. The menu was slightly odd because there was no details about what the breakfast contained. When we ordered, we also weren't asked how we liked our eggs cooked etc. I'm sure we could have asked, but it was odd that the information wasn't readily available. The food tasted nice, although we both felt as though we needed some sauce. The beans were homemade and therefore less saucy than Heinz. There were no condiments offered. Again, we possibly could have asked, but it is normally just provided.

This place is amazing! The bacon and Brie sandwich is incredible, soup and carrot cake were delicious, and the service was excellent. Thank you!

Quite simply the best café and coffee in the area. Fantastic breakfasts. Superb Colombian coffee and a warm and friendly welcome. An absolute gem. Check it out.

We stopped by for lunch during a walk along the River Thames towpath. I had the tortilla with egg and chorizo and my wife had the salmon salad. Both meals were excellent - absolutely delicious and very well presented. I’ve had breakfast here before and it was just as good. There are lots of cafes in the vicinity but IMO this one is the best for quality of the food.

Quirky cafe. Good portions, decent coffee and an attractive atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Definitely worth a 2nd visit.

Wonderful cafe. Lovely staff and service. Delicious food and coffee. Thank you. Will be back.

The surprise nice weather in October made me fancy a visit to Bushy park. I googled places to eat, and Canela Cafe had good reviews. The gentleman that runs it was very warm and welcoming. Although the kitchen was closed, as I arrived late afternoon, he got a sausage and avocado sandwich made up for me. Very charming cafe, fantastic service and such a delicious sandwich. I’ll definitely come here again. Highly recommended.

Just round the corner - I visit on my mobie scooter whenever I can and the staff and my fellow customers are always charming and helpful, shifting furniture and tolerating my rubbish driving. A very varied clientele of hospital staff and patients, builders and locals. Fast and furious service and a lovely sandwich bar menu (looks endless on the display board) + essentials like full English, delicious crisp and floury chips… the coffee’s good, too, and there’s a collection of cakes on top of the counter… very reasonable prices, considering the location. I’m hoping for a move but, honestly, how will I find somewhere with a handy Canela?

Lovely birthday breakfast this morning, extra impressed by the lovely LE. Food was amazing, great price. Will be back again

A really pleasant experience. Excellent service, especially our server Abel. Went above and beyond to ensure a great visit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great coffee and nice food with gluten free options! Good value, friendly staff, and cozy atmosphere:)

We love Canela our favourite place for breakfast in the area. Such attention to detail, home cooked and great quality. Never disappointed.

Place is super chill, eclectic, with amazing and creative food. The avocado toast and granola bowl will change your life. Now go see Henry's house! 👀 🤴 👑 🇬🇧

Very cosy, small and que charming place. Ideal for breakfast or brunch. Very interesting menu with some Latin dishes. Very friendly service.

Second visit here. A nicely varied menu. Today I had smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich on brown bread with tea. Always appreciate a mug. The sandwich was lovely and well filled.

Highly recommended. Great food and friendly attentive staff. Some wonderful original artworks on the walls.

We came upon this cafe by chance after visiting Hampton Court palace where dining options are limited. We shared a smoked salmon and cream cheese ciabatta and a coronation chicken arepa followed by a slice of coffee and walnut cake. The quality of everything was excellent especially the homemade coronation chicken and the cake. The sandwich and cake were very reasonably priced but I thought the arepa was rather pricey at £11 although it tasted freshly made. I would definitely come back here when visiting the nearby palace.

Very small space, but serves a lovely strong coffee, and the food looked excellent even though we didn't eat.

We visited for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Both my wife and I had the full cooked breakfast, and were both delighted with it. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection, and the price for such good quality food was very reasonable compared to other local cafes. The atmosphere in the cafe is very relaxed and quiet, which makes it ideal for couples and small groups. Service was excellent too, with all the staff being really friendly and helpful.

As a halfway point on river walk n unique and quirky but really friendly cafe.Had the Arepa with spicy beans and avocado while my chum had the Arepa with spicy egg and chorizo.both excellent.Theres a lot of good cafes in East Moleey but its not surprising this is No1. Will want to go back to try out their BYO evening

An eclectic mix of food in a quirky cafe, but what we had was very tasty (Arepas with egg, sausage and chorizo and Empanadas) Usual range of café style drinks available.

E' un piccolo bistrot nei pressi del castello di Hampton, veramente delizioso. Musica di sottofondo gradevolissima, cucina creativa e servizio cordialissimo. opere d'arte appese ai muri, nell'insieme una atmosfera magica. Non saremmo mai andasti via!! Un piccolo gioiello sicuramente da consigliare giovanni

Wenn man weiß wo es ist erwartet einen leckerer Kaffee und tolle Sandwiches. Gemütliches kleines Café…

Quaint cafe opposite the station, which is a convenient stop on the way to the Palace. We dropped in for a coffee and decided to treat ourself to a slice of cake as well. Firstly, the coffee was excellent - quite strong and served nice and hot. I tried the lemon drizzle cake, which was acceptable - maybe slightly on the small size. However, my wife tried the coffee and walnut cake, which although it tasted great, was a tiny slither and the end piece of the cake. To add insult, when we left, there was one generous portion left on the counter, which was obviously kept back as it looked far more appealing than what my wife was served. We felt slightly ripped off, which ruined an otherwise pleasant visit.

Had lunch here today and was so nice to have a different selection from the standard café menus - Colombian Arepas that were so delicious, and a good quality latte to go with it, and at such a great price compared to a lot of the overpriced cafes in the area. Great café, love the style of the café with friendly staff. Will definitely be back there again to try a different selection on the menu. Highly recommend it!

Fantastic cafe/restaurant. Great food, wonderful service and excellent value. Lovely atmosphere and decor and just a great find. Highly recommend trying out some of the genuine Colombian food too

Genuinely the best Americano I've ever had here! Very cute little cafe that we stopped at after Hampton court and before heading home. Affordable, welcoming, worth a visit.

great coffee, fresh juice ad smoothie in a chill athmosphere!

They are unable to service more than 2 customers at a time, there is a long wait for food and they regularly turn customers away.

Don't waste your time. They cannot handle more than 2 customers at a time. Long wait for food and regularly turn customers away. Unfortunately I have to put 1 star.

Sadly I had an awful coffee and cake from here today. Ordered flat white. What I got was a very large white coffee. No resemblance to a flat white. I mentioned this and that was how they serve them. It was extremely hot so burnt...

I went to this cafe today and whilst the smoothie and fresh juice were lovely, I was shocked by the staff. I had asked a man who works there where I could change my 4 month old daughter. He took me to a tiny passage...

Lovely little place for coffee and cake 5 minutes from Hampton court palace

Great coffee and the most beautiful, moist carrot cake I have ever tasted. Half an hour later I took friends for lunch for Arepas, spicy beans and avocado, spinach soup and….more carrot cake! All was delicious. Dog friendly too.

love it, best Colombian food around!

Although my old favourite, the goats' cheese salad, has yet to make a reappearance on the menu, there is still plenty here to tempt and delight. The soups and sandwiches are always very good, but on our latest visit, we enjoyed the full breakfast and...

Two of us waiting for a third friend to join us. Started with coffee then moved on to the absolutely delicious cream of spinach soup. We were in the cafe for some time and felt completely comfortable and welcomed. Shall definitely revisit and I might...

Stumbled upon this cafe after visiting HC palace. You won’t be disappointed. Fantastic sour American menu, and great value sandwiches and breakfast options too. Combined with friendly staff, it’s a lovely cafe and will return when in the area

Lovely little cafe, the tea alone worth a visit as pot for one very generous - stone where service and sweet little milk churns as milk jugs. Had a toastie - Brie, bacon and sweet pickle and added avocado. All came to just over £7.00

When asked what comes with the full English they said as one of the parts of the sentence "and spicy potatoes", this place should be known for saying that, come here if you want to hear spicy potatoes being said

Great tea, great food, great service!

A flat white in London - less than £3. And it was an oat milk flat white too! The coffee was delicious, the café was so fun and it was a super friendly environment too. Take a few more steps and you won't be upset.

One of the best cooked breakfasts we’ve ever eaten! You can tell it was cooked fresh to order. Lovely staff and a good cup of tea as well! We’ll be back

Like many places at the moment, this place has lost its charm as it is understaffed. A 20 minute wait for one coffee was pretty disappointing.

Perfect food quality with nice service. They have unique fresh foods. It's cosy and nice.

Really nice cafe, relaxed atmosphere and great food.

Cosy little cafe with plenty of character. Lovely coffee and cakes and great service too. Will be coming back to taste the food :-)

Visited with the family on a Sunday lunchtime for our first taste of Columbian food. The cafe was decorated very tastefully and there were books and puzzles for our daughter. We ordered the Arepas (beef and vegetarian) which we couldn't fault. The cakes were delicious and the coffee was up there with the best I've tasted. We'll definitely be returning! Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Hampton Court or Bushy Park area.

Nice surrounding but I asked for white bread and got seeded also got salad i never asked for that isn't my cup of tea. Fruit juice and coffee great. More upmarket than a cafe tbf

delicious food and friendly staff, the only negative was the mango smoothie. still, not enough to make it a bad experience. very cosy and enjoyable place :)

A quirky mix of old english cottage styling mixed with hearty south-american food. Just off the Hampton Court high street, Canela Cafe is well worth a visit for it's tasty food, decent coffee and delicious smoothies 👌🏻

Parked in Hampton Court and popped across the road to this cafe after reading about it on Tripadviser. Tasty good, great coffee and just a lovely place to have breakfast. Staff nice too. Prices very reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Quirky interior excellent food and ser

Great coffee and nice food in a character setting. Will definitely return. I hope this place stays as it is and does not get overrun with cyclists 😂 as has been the fate of some of the Bridge Road cafes.

Visited early on a Friday morning for breakfast before Hampton Court visit. So happy we chose this little gem, very quick service, fantastic food and lovely setting. Wouldn’t think twice about revisiting.

The corn cake breakfasts are really excellent. Belly pork a must try. Coffee was nice too.

Lovely little cafe. Good coffee and reasonably priced tasty food to take away or eat in.

Marvellous food and THE BEST COFFEE staff are awesome Julio, Claudia, Sophia and Orlando you should be proud of yourselves!!!!

Amazing ciabatta with hummus and tomatoes, and what a revival of the ham and cheese! Great food and lovely staff

Excellent espresso and the cakes looked amazing

Last chance for some really tasty food, without queueing or taking out a mortage ,before going to the Hampton Court Garden Festival . Had a cooked breakfast and it was jolly good, reasonably priced ,cooked well and served with a smile..try it and see if i am wrong .

One of the best Cafes I have ever visited. Tremendous!

Called in on our way to Hampton Court flower show. Lovely friendly cafe with The Best BLT I can remember. Thank you, we will be back.

This was a lovely café! Very friendly staff, amazing food, good portions and a nice vibe. I came twice today and will definitely come again.
