Coffee Bean in Richmond upon Thames

I love this place, the owner is really friendly and the food and hot drinks are good. It was recommended to me when I went to the area & I an glad it was. The paninis are excellent, as are the egg muffins.

I am a regular customer, one of many at this friendly cafe. Interesting and plentiful menu with good value; All of which, despite the owners earlier concern, the cafe has survived and flourished since the advent of an adjacent Starbucks- also a friendly place- as general in Whitton

Had the most delicious Roasted Cauliflower soup with Sourdough buttered toast. Highly recommended , my favourite place in Whitton Village High Street. The coffee is top too. Outside seating available too. Small independent coffee shop where service is 1st class and always with a smile.

Three hungry Arsenal fans stopped for breakfast at The Coffee Bean 02/11/2019 Generally, in the past, I’ve been dragged screaming and kicking to Whitton Cafe further along the High Street. The Coffee Bean is a much nicer environment to enjoy breakfast. Need a table moved to accommodate a bigger group? - nothing was too much trouble. Truth be told..fellow traveller, Stumpy is very set in his ways.... For me, the breakfast was excellent, very tasty and substantial enough. Stumpy prefer quantity to quality, but as acting chauffeur, I get the right to choose. So, we’ll be back.... Thank you,

Seemingly a very popular coffee house with plenty of regular customers. We stopped for two coffees and read the newspapers on the tables and chairs provided outside. Very comfortable, good service and a beautiful, delicious cappuccino - check my picture. Only one downside, my coffee could have been hotter.

Visited this area again and so popped in for breakfast. I ordered a sausage sandwich and sat at a table outside. The sandwich arrived very quickly and the automatically brought a range of sauce bottles for me without having to ask. The sandwich was well cooked and tasty. Coffee was also very nicely tasting. As found previously the service was excellent and very friendly and welcoming. If in twickenham or visiting for the rugby then I would definitely recommend.

Visited late Saturday morning for a coffee and snack. I was tempted by the breakfast which was very well cooked - they replaced the egg for an extra piece of bacon which was very much appreciated and also they cooked the bacon to be crispy as requested. In addition there was a nicely cooked sausage, beans, tomato, mushrooms and toast - not buttered as requested - so an excellent English breakfast. In addition the breakfast bagel was very good and there were freshly baked cakes which were delicious. Coffee was also very nicely tasting and not too strong which you can find at the chains. There were a range of papers available to read. In addition the service was excellent and very friendly and welcoming. If in twickenham or visiting for the rugby then I would definitely recommend.

Unplanned lunchtime visit, so glad I did! Was going to buy a sandwich in the supermarket, instead had a lovely freshly made one, which was delicious. Friendly service, will definitely be returning.

Visited the first time and the food was greedy. Last and final visit from or was not cooked. Very bad service and rude owner, would not advise to eat here as not a professional chief and food poising is very likely.

On the way to the rugby. Good Place to stop if parched. All walking distance to the ground. Simple. Effective. Enjoy.

What a lovely cafe, such warm welcoming staff, very helpful and so friendly. Absolutely delicious coffee, I visited briefly with my daughter for a take away coffee and it was the nicest coffee I've had for a long time (and I'm a big coffee drinker). I'd highly recommend! A million times better than Starbucks, better coffee, better service. All together a great independent cafe.

Popped to coffee bean for lunch ,lovely day sat outside in the sun . Had meatballs and mozarella in panini . Hubby had bacon and Brie in panini. We shared both really nice , great service and great value . Highly recommend a visit .

This small but cosy cafe is hidden on the high street but is really a good one. Great rich roast Italian coffee and sandwich prepared freshly while you wait, just couldn't fault it. Quick service and modern but pleasant decor, no wonder it's my wife's favourite coffee shop.

I first visited this place a couple of months ago with a friend for lunch. At first we thought of visiting Starbucks next door but decided to try this small and cosy cafe. I'm so glad we did. Excellent food. The bacon brie & mango chutney is a must try. I've been back 3 times for lunch with different friends and all of them have remarked how good the cafe is. Their home made cakes look delicious although I haven't tried one yet. Perhaps next time. Definitely a place to go if you fancy a bit of breakfast or lunch when in the area.

From the outside it looks relatively small but nestled in there is a gem of a place. Once you get in, its spacious and airy with a very traditional yet modern charm.The decor being simplistic, still manages to catch your eye. Was soon greeted by a charming hostesses who took our order. My coffee was one of the best I had in a long long time and I was glad I chose this place over the chain cafes as I wanted to support a local business. The sandwiches were made to order and very tasty with ample filling in them. The pastry selection was great and moreover they were homemade. I mean, how many other places can actually managed that! I spoke to the host and came to know that he was a head chef of a five star boutique hotel in London before he opened this place. No wonder, they do it so well. The bill was reasonable and I was happy to pay a tip. Just made an ordinary day so very special!

Had a lovely cup of tea here and a bacon croissant . Service was great good price and great food. Good value

Hay una agradable café local. Buen café y comida recién hecha a la orden. € por los propietarios son y te hacen sentir muy bienvenido. Hemos tenido tantos almuerzos preciosa y es para nosotros una semana vidit si no más!! Muy recomendable si visita Whitton no le decepcionará. Encantador tortas caseras.

Siempre me dan una cálida bienvenida cuando visite si sólo quiere un café o un delicioso recién preparados. paninni Fue una delicia estar afuera en el sol de hoy tienen varias mesas fuera, el desayuno también es muy bueno y mantiene en marcha todo el día. Yo casi siempre con alguien que sé que cuando me visita, así que es un gran lugar para reunirse con los amigos o simplemente por el nombramiento tanto informalmente.

Un pequeño café en la calle alta whitton dirigido por un equipo de marido y mujer que sirve una variedad de deliciosos aperitivos calientes y fríos todos recién hechos también tortas y el mejor café en la calle alta, todo a un precio estupendo, merece la pena una visita

Lovely local coffee shop with a friendly atmosphere and great food. We are always treated like old friends and are made to feel so welcome by owners Rohit and Shikha. Service is always very good here and even in peak times they both manage to smile. I have had so many delicious lunches here. The meals are all great. It's a lovely place and has become a regular stop when we are out in Whitton.

Always warm welcome. Cosy, intimate setting with tables for two or three but tables are re-arranged to cater for the needs of small parties. Good menu with variety of light bites, panninies, bagels, omelettes, etc. and a weekly special. The breakfast (served until 2pm) will satisfy the largest appetite and like everything else, is made fresh while you wait. Ladies who enjoy tea and something naughty will enjoy the home made cakes. It is my destination stop every trip to the high street and serves the best cup of coffee I've tasted.Yvonne W

We love visiting this great cafe. The owners are lovely and welcoming. They make the best iced coffee anywhere. They also have other light meals that everybody loves. There is something for everyone. It is convenient to visit for a rest and a bite, in between shopping, or when visiting the Twickenham Rugby stadium.

Popped in for breakfast. They onky serve full English at the weekend. But I had cheese and tomato croissant which was delicious, my friend had fried eggs on toast which she said was perfect .

Such a gorgeous little coffee shop in Whitton. It maybe small but that adds to its charm. The staff make you feel very welcome and are happy to help. The food is really good too. A number of well known coffee chains have arrived in Whitton but it's lovely to support an independent businesses which is genuinely very good.

A really great independent cafe which sells a lovely breakfast. Well worth a visit and highly recommended

I used this place when I had no kitchen I always felt really welcome there and by the second visit they knew my 'beams in a tea cup' odd requests :-) Lovely couple too.

This is a local gem indeed, the coffee is great the owner is fun and polite and the venue is generally relaxing and quaint

A littl café on the High St. in Whitton run by a lovely couple.This became and has stayed my favourite café in the Richmond area. Not only excelent coffee but an interesting little menu..The scrambled eggs and smoked salmon on toasted muffins just exquisite,the full English breakfast good as are the wraps,especially the chicken tikka wrap.. My daughter fell in love with the salad,, And most importantly you feel at home,with friendly service and I always look forward to returning.

Popped in for brunch had full cooked breakfast complete with blackpudding . It was delicious had a cup of tea and white toast with it. Service with a smile nice and clean plus friendly staff. Would highly recommend this little gem .

Its lovely and clean and cozy. The service is marvellous.I walk with a crutch so I appreciated the fact that i could sit down and your order is brought to you. I had tea which came in the correct size cup. Unlike a certain coffee chain which gives you a huge sundae glass! There was a little jug with the milk, a teapot shaped dish for the used tea bag and a small complementary biscuit! My bacon muffin was divine, not greasy and just the right amount of crunch. And all at a great price. A far nicer experience that the mainstream coffee chains.Lets patronise our high street shops as much as we can

Popped into this little coffee shop . Had full English breakfast at lunchtime . Was really nice even included toast . My friend had jacket potatoes with prawns which she said was really good . Both had cakes for desert I had chocolate orange cake which was out of this world . Just perfect .

This little family coffee shop and as l would says small restrauant in whitton high street is the best eating place that you would find in whiitton high steet. All of the food which one would be spoilt for choice is made freshly to order and delicious to eat. The owners would go out of their way to help you. The cappunicos are delicous and reasonably priced. I eat in this family owned business. nearly every day and have been for the past 1 and a half years and I have never been disapponted nor spolt for choice. I would sincerely recommend this little coffee bean/restraunt. to anyone coming to whitton high street of even the local people l guarantee rthey will not be disappointed. Keep the good work going to Rohit and Sikha.xx Best wishes and l hope you have great success.

We regularly eat here. The service and friendly atmosphere is great. The owners are very welcoming & take a personal interest in their customers. The food is tasty, fresh & well presented. Reasonably priced food & beverages. We have been going there for over a year & the service & atmosphere has been consistent. We highly recommend the Coffee Bean.

A lovely little cafe in Whiton high street. I regularly come here for cappuccino and cake, and I would recommend the homemade cakes by the lady herself. They are superior to the brought in items, although they are not bad at all. Just ask which ones are home made.Friendly service, a nice atmosphere when the place is full, and good food. The sandwiches and ciabattas are really tasty and the small accompanying salad is always crisp, fresh and nicely dressed. Coffee is very good and it is nice to sit outside on a sunny day.I love Whitton, it is a nice small, 'village feel', town and this little cafe is one of several new ventures over recent years that have contributed to Whittons rise as nice place to shop and eat.Neil P.

I wrote the first review of this cafe last year but it appears to have disappeared? However since then the standards have been maintained. Anyone looking for a drink, snack, breakfast, lunch or brunch should walk straight past the chain shops that have begun to blight our high street and walk into the little coffee bean. Service is lovely, food is good value and fresh. If you want some cake, ask for the home made one, and the strawberry milk shake is far superior than in many chains. If you are local, I really do recommend visiting the Coffee Bean, places like this deserve our custom because they are good. There is one more cafe in Whitton worth a visit, but I'm not mentioning it here. Come and find it.

warm welcome followed by great food. great value for money with gormet stands. I had roast chicken served with delphinoise potato and salsa which was cooked to perfection follow by mascarpone and mango desert ( home made from scratch ) . Overall I really enjoyed every minute of great ambience , service and delicious food!

I have been to Coffee Bean many times now, you always get welcomed by the friendly couple like you are part of the family. They serve breakfast, light lunches and home made cakes accompanied by a Mokambo coffee, every time spot on. When is sunny you can even sit outside!

Assured by the staff that the jacket potato was baked in the oven and not microwave. This was not the case. With my cheese and beans filling I had complimentary filling of two hairs. On pointing this out I did not receive an apology and also ended up paying full price for the meal. Never go there again. Disappointed.

The new owners have dramatically changed the quality of food and service for the better.Very friendly owners who offer first rate service provide old world charm and a very affordable offer of fare.We indulged in their full Christmas meal experience which was a number of courses for a very reasonable price. The food was delicious and service impeccable. The white chocolate cheesecake was the best I have had.I also recommend their cooked breakfasts which are competitively priced.I hope they go from strength to strength as they deserve to. Good luck in 2014!

This small but very friendly cafe is one not to be missed. The doctor is clean and fresh but with just a hint of "old world". When you walk in it is a little like walking into a tea shop, aas mentioned in another review don't be put off by the name. The food is freshly made to order and on most days there are normally two choices of proper "homemade" cakes. Other cakes are also available. This couple are really trying to give you a chance to just step in, sit down and enjoy a very relaxing few moments out of a hectic day. Give them a go, for me it is the fgull breakfast, the bacon and black pudding muffin with fried egg (my own concoction) But for lunch the chicken tikka cheese melt is a particular favourite of both my girl friend and my self.

Fantastic little cafe in the heart of Whitton High Street. It is without a shadow of a doubt the best cafe in Whitton infact Twickenham also. I love the coffee here. The smoked salmon and cream cheese ciabatta toasted sandwiches are amazing. The couple who own this cafe are so sweet and accommodating. I wish there were more cafes like this!!!! Top marks, cannot fault in anyway. Thumbs up Coffee Bean!! Love you

The Coffee Bean may be small in size but makes up for that with really friendly NEW OWNERS who can't do enough for you. Prices are reasonable and food is fresh and good quality. Can recommend the Paninis and Bacon and Egg Muffins. A real plus for the High Street!

The food was very tasty. I was out with my friend and was craving some major desserts. Stopped by this place, tried most of their desserts. We also landed up eating their paninis, which were very different than the other cafes. The interiors of the cafe is very soothing, you can have a quite sit down and relish your food or chat away with your friends while enjoying it!!! Once again I would mention not to leave the place without tasting their chocolate dessert & their Tart of the day for amazing prices. Thanks Guys!!will defi come back soon!!

If you've not been here, I would suggest you to try it just to experience what epitomises comfort food with modern interiors, bright colours yet calming. Don't be baffled by the name, this place does more than coffee. Must try the bacon brie & mango chutney panini or Greek salad & parma ham salad, they're a personal recommendation. If like me you can't resist a home baked chocolate cake, this is the right place. They're pretty good at tailoring the menu with the ever changing British weather or unpredictable palates. Banofie pie, Eton Mess and Tiramisu sundaes are a perfect choice for lounge food at a reasonable price of £3.50. What a bargain eh? Must try.
