CyCo cafe in Croydon

And amazing pastries! But honestly, the cappuccino was incredible. So silky smooth. Go there, you won’t regret it.

I and my family have been frequenting this establishment pretty much daily since opening. We love the coffee as well as the fruit smoothies. I’m a picky sod and they continue to impress with my unique and sometimes over the top orders for specific breakfast baps! Great toasties and breakfasts both sweet and savoury. The cinnamon buns and carrot cake continue to be the barrier to me breaking every diet I attempt as well as the succulently moist banana bread (I made that more detailed than maybe needed to be). Thank you to all the staff old and new that I have come to know since opening... Lewis, Gabby (hopefully spelt correctly) David, Emily, Amy, Alex, Jack, Dave (Surfer), Mable, and all the new guys and girls who have been given the chance to work at such a lovely place. Definitely visit this place. Also if you get a chance try the special with the scotch bonnet ice cream. (Definitely no vested interest in there. . . . . :-P)

We’ve been many times for brunch and today we had our first home delivery of pastries and they were delicious! Thank you

Very comfortable small cafe with friendly staff and all Covid measures in place. Ordering is via app from the table and coffee and pastries are fresh and good value. Well worth a visit.

Love this little cafe! Such a hidden gem. Staff are lovely and friendly and the restaurant is very COVID secure, we felt very safe. Will definitely be returning and recommending to all. Thank you!!

Great coffee shop. Do a very good toastie. Fantastic place to go for brunch. Coulsdon is very lucky to have this place.

Great local coffee shop, wide variety of sandwiches and pastries, very nice poached eggs and breakfast options. Recommend the eggs royale

Ever since it opened I have enjoyed coming to Cyco. They have a great menu and friendly staff. One of my all time favourite places to go to. I have now introduced my partner to it and he loves it too. I am really impressed with the measures they are taking to protect people during the pandemic. Their signage and instructions for customers are probably the clearest I have seen from any eatery I have been to recently. There is no confusion about where you need to wear a mask. Highly reccommend this place. Definitely give it a try!

First visit to this cafe, the staff were super friendly with excellent customer service. Great signage up about mask wearing until seated and staff respectfully and patiently asked customers not wearing a mask if they were able to. Great menu to choose from. Ordered a latte and the Smashed Avocado with bacon, fried egg, chilli and chives on sour dough toast and wasn’t disappointed with anything including the portion size. The server who took my plates then asked if I’d like some iced water when I finished. Lovely atmosphere and a small bench seating area out the front. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend.

Cyco is such a lovely cafe offering a large range of delicious drinks and delicious snacks and food! The quality is great and staff are really friendly. Prices are quite high but for the quality you really can’t complain!

Coffee is absolutely delicious! Loved every minute of it. Worth a try if you have a bit of time in Coulsdon!

Nice relaxed cafe, great coffee, would return. They have cooked breakfast and cakes/pastries too. Staff are friendly.

Another lovely cafe in the centre of Coulsdon. Breakfast isn’t served until 9am and I understand the coffee is lovely. I don’t drink it myself but their selection of teas is great

Visited here for breakfast a few months ago. It was a very friendly place, staff very welcoming. The hot chocolate was lovely- not like other places where it’s watered down, this was good quality. The english breakfast was cooked perfectly but it would be nice if it were a bit bigger.

Excellent customer service and food, really great place to relax and have good cup of coffee. Highly recommend.

New breakfast/brunch spot! Definitely recommend bubble & kale croquettes. Really good choice of tasty food. Best breakfast/brunch in Coulsdon!

Delightful local cafe, a real Treat from the chains. Great brunch a fresh drinks. Fast and friendly service

A great cafe to pop into before, during or after shopping - friendly and efficient service and a great range of drinks and food (the latter mostly home-made, and delicious).

My wife and I are lucky enough to travel quite a bit for work and family ... it is not an exaggeration to say this is the best coffee we have ever had. The staff are all excellent and we have never had anything less than an amazing drink/meal. The new kitchen has meant that there is even more amazing food on offer and the only downside is that the owner, Lewis, is stuck downstairs cooking up a storm. We recommend this place to everyone, and everyone we have ever taken says that it is the best coffee they have EVER had!! All I can say is - try it ... you will not be disappointed

Love CyCo; they continue to serve the best coffee in the area! However, since moving the kitchen upstairs (I assume) the food quality appears to have suffered and something of the ambience has been lost! I very much hope these are teething problems with a new system. Time will tell.

We have visited CyCo on several occasions from when it first opened and thoroughly enjoyed the food. The menu used to be quite limited but everything was high quality, delicious and was cooked on view. Whilst cooking on view is not important to us, our last visit yday saw the menu had expanded hugely and there was a clear reduction in the quality of ingredients used despite the price. For example, CyCo’s version of the full English breakfast used to come with a slice of sourdough toast, it is now served with cheap white bread slightly toasted, it is incredibly noticeable and the mushrooms were dry and tasteless when cooked, and the bacon was overcooked. If you are visiting as a new customer what you get I’m sure will be acceptable, for us we enjoyed what they offered previously and it seems expanding the menu and moving the kitchen has not worked in continuing to deliver high quality food.We will no longer recommend as a good breakfast/lunch spot. Such a shame

Popped in for a quick coffee. Nice staff & service. Food seems well priced, will be back for breakfast soon.

Tried Cyco for a family breakfast, good menu, however our food was warm, despite being served on hot plates. No table service, order at the till, plates cleared half an hour after eating. Although warm, we sat close to the toilet where two outside bricks were missing so felt the cold on a particularly cold day. Friendly staff.

Lovely to see a relatively new independent coffee shop in Coulsdon. First time in and I will be back. Great tasting coffee and we both had the cheese toastie with chorizo which were very moreish.

Been using Cyco since they opened best coffee shop for miles travel all over London but by far the best. The breakfast rolls and pastries are all excellent. Staff really friendly all in all a great place

Great addition to Coulsdon. They’re really friendly & great selection of yummy food & drinks. Have been a few times, alone, with family etc

I have never been disappointed with either the service or the food and beverage at this place. Everything is made fresh in the tiny space behind the counter where on busy weekends 4 or 5 staff might be squeezing to prepare avocado on sourdough and flat whites - and they always seem to have such a good time too!

This is our favourite coffee shop in Coulsdon, and we look for any excuse to come here to visit.

Independently owned little gem in Coulsdon. The coffee, food and service is all great. We go regularly and often take friends there as well. Highly recommend. If you do go, try their flat white 👌

CyCo not like any of the chain vendors. Personal and friendly greeting from Lewis Voce and all members of staff. Great ambience great coffee and good FRESH food guaranteed at the hands of Lewis. Not been open 1 year yet (September 2018) but a success from day one. Plans on the Hob for extension of food preparation area, with additional menu options. Try it out for yourself, you will not be disappointed. Being a local, I visit multi times per week.

Visited with daughter-in-law and granddaughter mid morning for breakfast. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and tasty food. The coffee was good and they use well sourced and fresh products. Will be returning for their pancakes very soon!

A lovely cafe in Coulsdon offering organic and healthy food as well as some usual fayre. Nice atmosphere, lovely servers and staff, been there twice now, so consistent and I’ll be back.

They've got, hands down, the best coffee around. Since they are new, hopefully they'll keep up the good work and if done so, they will most likely become a hot-spot in the area.

A lovely local coffee shop that does an excellent breakfast. Lovely staff who work very hard to make this little coffee shop a success. Keep up the good work.

Lovely little place for a fab breakfast! After a run round Kenley Aerodrome this went down a treat! Eggs Benedict were delish! Supporting local business.

This breakfast was probably the best I have ever had. This cafe won’t let you down. I highly recommend it.

Really friendly staff who make properly good coffee! I started coming here with my 5year old niece to have a babycino staff made her feel special with extra chocolate sprinkles and it’s been a firm favourite of mine since. Smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels are lush and weekend we moved into our new house and didn’t have a cooker their bacon and egg bagels take away bagels were heaven!

We live near but seldom go to Coulsdon; it's a little to near to visit and a little too far for a walk. However, with some things to do nearby we decided to pop into CyCo Cafe and were very pleased we did. They have an excellent coffee supplier out of London and my Americano was super, a chocolate essence but not chocolate, gave the coffee a smooth taste. We had bagels. Mine with sweet potato, chorizo and some chilli jam - the other was an avocado and grilled halloumi cheese. Really, really good. The menu we saw at breakfast is not vast but not so short as to feel compelled to take something that one is unsure of. I reckon lunches there would be just as good so hoping to try a lunch there sooner rather than later. Good luck to this new cafe!

I have visited this cafe a few times and it has always been excellent . This visit was very disappointing the food took40 minutes to arrive totally unacceptable without apology. The portions were much smaller than usual. The coffee not as nice as usual very bitter

Always great service from the whole team. Try the Jack White for a larger smoother flat white. Tasty menu made with fresh products. Lewis the owner has a great cafe!

Always love it in here - staff are friendly & attentive and the food/coffee is always top quality. It's also very good value for money; the prices are very reasonable.

Just had an excellent breakfast there. Great food well presented. Excellent coffee. Very friendly staff. Produced a gluten free breakfast for my wife who is coeliac and advised regarding allergies . We will be going again

My sister, mum and I went to this lovely cafe earlier today. The cafe looks stylishly industrial. The food was of a very high standard and at a ridiculously reasonable price. We ate smashed avocado with egg and feta on sourdough toast and a bagel with chives cream cheese and smoked salmon, everything was amazing. We mentioned to the owner that it was our mums birthday and he brought us a complementary brownie! A lovely thought. Would not hesitate to return.

Yes Coulsdon has a good choice of coffee establishments but you won't go far wrong visiting this one. I have been a few times with family and on my own and each time it's been amazing. Very friendly service, excellent coffee beans and and the full breakfast is perfect very clean, very tasty and hot. Who'd have thought Coulsdon could have such a high level coffee shop (lol) well worth a visit and better still, you'll be support local independent outlets.

I have been to CyCo on a number of occassions now and can honestly say that as a Cafe CyCo has set the new Bar n Coulsdon. They definateley have the best coffee and the food and menu choices are really good. Coulsdon now has 3 very good Independent Cafes all of which leave Nero quiet.

My wife visited for the first time the other day, having searched on the internet. She and her friend really liked the smashed avocado on sourdough, as well as the good coffee. So I went with her and my daughter today. The flat white was excellent, as was the creamy jumbo oats porridge with berries. Lots of tempting choices. Will have the savoury pancake with bacon, egg and avocado next time! My daughter had a very tasty brioche bun with Cumberland sausage. The berry smoothie was delicious. Friendly service, reasonably priced. This place really deserves to do well. So good to have an independent cafe of a good standard. It was full this Sunday lunchtime.

Popped in for brunch this Saturday and was pleased to see they have now extended their brunch menu at weekends.

I absolutely love it here. The coffee is the best around but quite some margin. The egg/brunch menu is fab. The brownies are glorious. The chilli hot chocolate - something i only recently tried - was outstanding. Love it here! Great service too.

Just popped in for our first visit. Nice cosy atmosphere, a lovely welcome by friendly staff and superb coffee the best in Coulsdon by far. We both had the bacon, brie and cranberry toasted sandwiches they were delicious and very reasonably priced. Decent bread and served piping hot. So refreshing to find an independent with great service and good food rather than the ususl same old chains around. Look forward to returning. Toilets were absolutely spotless.

We try to go whenever possible to CyCo. We find it way better than the homogeneous and generally soulless chains. Lewis is always smiling and helpful no matter how busy he is, and so are his staff. As vegetarians, we love the smashed avocado and halloumi bagel with chilli jam, which is reasonably priced, as food should be. Our little boy loves going there for the babyccino with whipped cream! Thoroughly recommend others to visit.

What a GREAT find, lovely staff great location. Food FAB!!! Thank you for being so helpful and knowledgeable with the gluten free request ..... will definitely be back...... soon

Had another great experience here at the weekend. Friendly service, great quality - kids tried white hot Choc & loved it. Freshly baked mint /dark choc brownie smelt amazing- eaten at home by kids & husband who gave it a clear thumbs up. Well worth visiting - they’ve a good range of food, drinks & snacks & more seating than you’d expect - busy but not completely full when we went, luckily!

The team at CyCo are great. Food is reasonably priced and they’re always going above and beyond to ensure everything is good. Don’t know how they make the smashed avo but if I could replicate it at home I’d be onto a winner.

Grabbed a coffee here a few times.. Great service and almond milk lattes are amazing! Good price as well.. Haven't eaten here yet but it's on my list!

Popped in here for a spontaneous breakfast and was happy we did.

I stumbled upon this cafe in Coulsdon. Being from Australia, I have pretty high expectations for good coffee; and this is hard to find in London.

Friendly staff good service good food good atmosphere. A lovely new cafe very relaxing fresh food. Well worth a visit

Love this little cafe! Have been coming here since it has opened and have enjoyed the coffees and home made cakes especially the brownies. The service comes with a smile and the owner is passionate and hands on. See for yourself, a warm atmosphere and a unique gimicky interior. Lovely!

Absolutely lovely cafe, the staff are so friendly and the drinks as well as food are highly quality🙂

I’ve been here a few times since it opened, on my own and meeting friends.

What a gem! Great coffee, lovely food and brilliant staff! What more could a girl ask for! Well done Lewis and team.

Been here a couple of times with my friends and the breakfasts are phenomenal! Staff are lovely and happy to swap over any items on the full English if you don’t like them (minus mushrooms to more tomatoes as they are the best!)

Really delicious coffee. The owner really cares about the place and puts a lot of effort into the food he prepares. Lots of nice salads and healthy lunch type food on offer.

Ok, so its quite small and rather plsin interior and it could do with some air con at the moment but coffee was strong, sausage and egg roll ( weekends only) was great and staff were friendly. There's a small selection of freshly made sandwiches and cold drinks. They did try to keep the place cool with fans and its not often we get a heateave in the UK.

It’s nice that a new business has opened in Coulsdon. I’ve been to this lovely little coffee shop twice and had a great breakfast/brunch on both occasions. Would definitely recommend giving it a try

Wow what a stunning and fabulous cafe right in the heart of Coulsdon town. Friendly staff and delicious food and catering for vegans as well. Great home made smoothies. Will be going more often now.
