DropShot Coffee in Wandsworth

Excellent cafe. Fun, attentive service. Delicious food and coffee drinks. Breakfast dishes were delicious. Comfortable and inviting.

*** Leopold road shop *** A lovely little coffee shop with friendly and helpful staff. Great coffee and cake with an interesting varied lunch menu that doesn’t disappoint ( we had both coffee & cake and then lunch a little later). Thoroughly enjoyed our experiences in this great coffee shop and the prices are very reasonable considering the area.

Stuffy unhealthy with windows literally running with condensation. Management refused to open a window or even put on the A/c to reduce the temperature. So we left and had an excellent breakfast at nearby Sabores. Wonderful food

It was very nice. 5 - 10 min waiting time. There was a lot of desserts and excellent desserts. Very good coffee.

It is a great store but if you queue for take away more priority is given to people behind you in the queue and always get priority it is very upsetting and this is today was the third time it occurred

I would love to give a five star review for this cafe. If it were just the food or the coffee, or even the venue, I would be able to give a five star review. Plus the staff are absolutely amazing and friendly, and very quick with service. However the reason for the low review is that there were customers playing music, social media, games on ipads, or having calls on their phones on speaker with the volume turned up out loud, ruining the atmosphere, and the staff did nothing about it. If the cafe had a ban on this behaviour, or the staff asked those responsible to turn their volume down, this would be an easy fix. Inconsiderate people ruin the atmosphere for everyone, and it should be the responsibility of the staff to apply these rules to improve the atmosphere and experience for all of their customers. If the staff start applying this, i'll change my review immediately to a 5 star as everything else is perfect.

The coffee is great and the cafe is lovely inside. Unfortunately the service is lacking. It was fairly busy, so had to wait a while to be served at the counter, which would be fine but no member of staff even acknowledged my presence (or the growing queue behind me). Two staff members literally stood with their backs to me for five minutes without saying anything before a much friendlier man came to the till, by which point a few people queueing behind me had already given up and left. They seem to have baristas also bringing out food from the kitchen and clearing tables which is not really working.

The service is really poor. There's no formal queue system so I waited 20 minutes only to be told another couple walked in after me and was given the next available table because "my colleague said so". The staff could be trained better on how to make people feel welcome and attended to. They were dismissive and didn't really care for me waiting. There never seems to be enough waiting staff when it is busy. The food is good but rushed, and they have a 40 minute waiting time when busy, sometimes 45. Atmosphere is nice hence 2 stars but they could really do with a revamp on their service.

Food was self service but each customer had 12.5% service charge added on. Was that busy that no one really spotted it. Typical example of taking advantage of busiest time of year. But to cap it all, full breakfast arrived late with large human hair over my egg. Clearly no real health and safety protocols in place as it was hard to miss. No real apology other than money back. Won’t go back, even in quiet season when they will rely on customers like us!

I went to Dropshot with my 1 year and half baby. Myself and my friends received food quickly after ordering it. When it arrived I asked if the waitress could have warmed my baby’s food. She said they don’t have microwave, so i asked her if she could have warmed in the oven and she said they are not allowed. Then, I asked her what food I could have ordered for a baby and she said everything would have taken 40 mins and if i was sure about ordering.. I didn’t feel very welcome, to be honest I would have expected that they could have done a little effort for a baby. Like bringing something raw or cheese bites, whatever doesn’t involve cooking if they were si busy. I would never go back and discourage anyone with a baby to go. My husband had an English breakfast and it was very ‘average’ , definitely not one of the best. Both my hash brown and his hash brown were terrible and I couldn’t finish them, they looked soggy and boiled rather than fried.

I came with my nephew. We don't know the area at all but saw this place which looked nice and we sat outside as inside was full. The coffee was excellent.

I recently visited the new Drop Shot on Leopold Road and was greeted by an extremely rude man. I was saddened that Wacka had been replaced by this chain but thought I would go in and try it out. I was wearing my AFC Wimbledon cap and he would not stop going on about it - asking why I was wearing it, who the team was (you might want to gather some local knowledge if you’re going to work in Wimbledon) that it looked weird and like a German football club. His attitude came across very arrogant and patronising and made the worst first impression. I didn’t bother ordering from this place and won’t be visiting again! There is a new pizza and coffee shop further along Leopold Road and the new owners are lovely, coffee is great and they have syrups unlike snooty Drop Shot! I would recommend going there instead!!

While this place has a great coffer, the services was absolutely appalling. We were given the table outside with a promise to be moved inside once a spot becomes available, instead were removed from the waiting list for the seat inside and had to eat our breakfast in the rain. If you enjoy your eggs benedict wet and cold, definitely the place to go.

This could be very hit and miss depending on your experience. The service was generally pretty good; however, we asked to remove the “discretionary service charge” as they had gotten an order wrong twice. The waitress called out across the room, “can we take the service charge off?” to her manager who replied “yes it is optional”. Given she was aware that the order was wrong, I don’t think us taking this off should have been questioned so publicly. On leaving, every single one of us said “thank you”, and they just looked up and completely ignored us. This really put a downer on an otherwise lovely place, and it is a shame that as a local I won’t be coming here again due to this experience. I’d recommend only visiting in groups of 2 as it is very crowded, tables all close together and only two spaces for groups of 4. A staff member was sat on the one of these tables, meaning our group instead waited for a family to leave to sit down. I really enjoyed my food, the Rafa Na-Dill. But a note on the other breakfasts - the hash browns are more like shredded potato bhajis and the baked beans I think are cannelloni beans, and they go VERY heavy on the cinnamon especially in the chutney, which might be an absolutely treat or put you off the meal entirely.

A friend who lives locally took me here and the food was great. Something to suit everyone - would personally recommend ‘the ace’ French toast!

The worst luke warm, flat white I have ever had along with a stale piece of banana and walnut loaf that cost me £6.50 in a noisy environment. I will never return. Packed but can not see the allure of the place. Better off going to Wimbledon Tennis Café.

Beautiful food and tasty coffees. It's a really lovely atmosphere too. It seems to be a pretty popular place so you may have to wait a little bit but I think it's worth it.

A good variety on the menu. Pleasant atmosphere. Great brunch spot, but wish they’d just do normal beans and with the English breakfasts. Did really like that they served loose leaf tea in a teapot. Smoothies were also very good.

I’ve been trying to support independent businesses during what I can only imagine has been a crippling year financial for coffee houses like Drop Shot. In the last 5 months I’ve been going there at least 3 times a week and spending between £10-20 each...

Been going to drop shot since it open, love the coffee and food. But think some of the staff should be a bit more happy and friendly to there loyal customers and new customers

When an Independent opens a new establishment they are incredibly dependent on local support. When they provide amazing food and coffee then it makes it very easy to provide this support as it is a joy to pop in for brunch with the dog and...

Great local coffee shop with a tasty brunch menu and great cakes. Nice to support a local business and not just another coffee chain. Would definitely recommend!

Popped in for Lunch. Great to see an Independent among the Corporates. I would encourage the waitress NOT to remove my partners empty plate when I am still eating and NOT to remove her empty glass whilst I am still drinking. On her return visit...

What a lovely little cafe. The menu choice was really good and the food was excellent. I had the freshly squeezed orange juice which was delicious. The eggs were perfect. All round it was a great breakfast. Staff were really friendly as well.

Reasonably priced and imaginative menu: The toasted banana and walnut bread with whipped espresso butter and berries on the side (AKA the re-fuel) is ace!

I've had the pleasure of visiting some of the best coffee shops in London and Dropshot is right up there with the likes of Kaffeine and Caravan. Easily the best coffee in South-West London. You won't be disappointed. Attentive and friendly staff. Love a bit...

Lovely little cafe in heart of Southfields - such a refreshing change from big chains everywhere. Great food, friendly service, delicious coffee.

Location is great, vibe even better. Went there for a morning coffee and I ll definitely be back! Recommended!

Absolutely loved our brunch in Dropshot. Food was incredible and the coffee is definitely the best in the area! We’ll be back!

I’m now a regular - for both coffee and Brunch- at DropShot and I can’t recommend it enough! Owner and barista Ed always remembers my coffee order, I don’t know how he does it! The food is always spot on, no matter what I order.

Ed and his team serve the best coffee in London - great relaxed atmosphere, modern decor and fantastic brunch menu if you fancy a treat. Great place to while a way a few hours working, relaxing or catching up with your mates.

Had just a coffee here and then came back for brunch because the menu sounded so good. They take their coffee seriously and you can tell. Mushrooms on toast was delicious too

I came here with friends for Brunch at peak time. We were welcomed and seated within 5 minutes at a perfect table. The food exceeded all expectations, it was just divine. We even ordered an extra plate to try the french toast because we just...

Amazing food, amazing coffee. Definitely would recommend visiting! the owners are so friendly, such a welcoming atmosphere xxxxxx

Came in for brunch with my friends. Fantastic atmosphere, great service and the food was incredible. I will be visiting again soon!

I really liked this little coffee place! Staff was lovely, the coffee is great and I wasn't expecting to have such great surprise with the food! Compliments to the chef! 🧡

I thought to try this place and now I have no regrets at all. Great and different food, the staff is very polite and helpfull and telling from the quality of the food amazin chefs! Highly reccomend

I came here today for a coffee after touring the Wimbledon grounds and museum. The staff were very nice and friendly and you could sit inside or outside. The coffee would’ve been wonderful, but it wasn’t very hot. I wouldn’t mind but I had specifically...

I’m not from London but every time I come for a visit I come here for my dose of great coffee and food. I always go for an oat milk latte with the smashed avo on toast. For a treat I get a vegan fudge...

In my view this is the best coffee shop in Southfields, although standards seem to have slipped on my last 3 visits for breakfast/brunch. On the first occasion I just couldn't find a table. Several were blocked by Mums' buggies and there were at least...

I go to Dropshot every morning on my way to work. Their coffee is great and food is delicious. Staff is lovely and very friendly, even when it's 8am and there's 10 people waiting to get their coffee. I also love the atmosphere and the...

Dropshot is the sort of third wave coffee shop each local area strives to have. It's coffee is fantastic and well priced and with its new kitchen menu it offers delicious brunch items that really complement its drink selection. The decor perhaps borrows a bit...

I am a regular visitor of DropShot and am never disappointed. Wonderful, friendly staff, great flat whites and delicious food - pancakes are insane. Great spot to get some work done at and it is a beautiful space. Love that it is my local as...

Lovely independent coffee shop with delicious cakes and great coffee. The decor inside is also really nice and it’s a great place to work for the afternoon. Can’t wait to try their brunch!

Yeah, the staff are awesome and it has a really funky vibe, BUT, the coffee is simply out of this world. I spend my life working in coffee shops all over London and this is HANDS DOWN the best one of the lot. I have...

Absolute gem in Southfields, the coffee is delicious and the food is great- loads of options and plenty for veggies too. The cafe itself is beautiful too, lots of light and plants everywhere. Definitely worth a trip!

Compelled to write a second review (as a regular) based on this weekend's experience. Coffees - forgotten. Food - forgotten. Staff - both unapologetic and disinterested. All highly unusual and exceptionally disappointing. To wait an hour for scrambled eggs on toast is pretty embarrassing, and...

Called in for a coffee on the way home. It’s hard to stand out in the crowded coffee shop market. However, DropShot managed to distinguish itself. The ‘tennis themed’ spot is situated a short hike from Wimbledon tennis centre. I take my coffee black so...

Visited here the morning of Wimbledon mens final..really busy and great atmosphere around, we were very lucky to get a table..we all got different dishes from the menu and we were all very happy with what we got, brunch ranged from the spinach pancakes, to...

Even though I don't drink coffee (I know, right?!), I've had a great shakshuka at Dropshot Coffee one evening. There are a lot of options even when you are not a coffee fan. I really like the place, very nice and cozy and the staff...

Really nice atmosphere, lovely coffee and definitely the best brunch menu in the area! Absolutely love this place!😍

We come every year and we have 2 places we love to visit for food this is one of them - really yummy and a wide range for everyone . The coffee as promised is really good. The service could be a bit better but...

Can’t speak anymore highly about this place- excellent coffee, delicious food and such friendly staff. Will keep coming back and back.

This is quite literally the best brunch in the whole of London. As a Londoner , I have brunched at many places and this hands down wins for presentation quality and taste- spins on classics and amazing coffee. Stylish , cool shop with such a...

Stopped in for brunch and was so happy with our choice! Only good coffee around Southfields and delicious food to boot! Staff seemed to know everyone coming in which gave the whole place a friendly family vibe. Will 100% be coming back! Extra bonus, dogs...

Top notch neighbourhood coffee shop serving generous brunch and breakfast dishes. There's a great, friendly vibe when you get in, and the staff is cheerful and friendly.

We stop buy frequently for great coffee and the brunch is fantastic! Staff are friendly and the setting is really nice.

After accidentally finding the best coffee in Southfields on the way to Wimbledon tennis we thought we would pop back for supper on our way home. We were not disappointed. A creative french bean salad was top marks on the taste front. Well worth a...

Great coffee, great food and really stylish interior. Love everything about this place Also...they have brunch on their menu that you don’t see anywhere else (see pics)

DropShot has fantastic coffee and brunch. I've been a few times and the coffee is as good as Melbourne (which says alot) and the brunch is also great. The only problem is that I want to try the whole menu. The owner Ed is also...

I’ve been to cafes all over the world, from NYC to Italy to Melbourne, and I’m fussy about my “flat whites” and cappuccino’s. This place is right up there with the best!! Coffee is outstanding, and food is great! The owner Ed, is a great...

Came in for what I hoped would Be a leisurely coffee and breakfast. It was 9am peak time for the place on a Sunday. I know it was busy, but I was ignored a couple of times by the waitress even though she knew I...

Whilst on a course in Southfields I came here for my daily coffee. The service was excellent, a great range of cakes and pastries. My espresso had a good crema and a rich but smooth flavour. By the third day they remembered my order. A...

Southfields has lacked a DropShot for as long as I can remember - don’t forget the grid was ‘dry’ back in the day.... WITHOUT a scintilla of doubt they are knocking out the best breakfasts I’ve ever had in a coffee shop. Generous portions, clever...

4 of us popped in for brunch and enjoyed the food and the service. Star turn was the vegan 'Grand Slam' chickpea fritters etc. Tasty and unusual. Other standard dishes all done well and great coffee too. About £10pp with a couple of side orders....

First time here but will definitely be back. Great coffee and carrot cake! The atmosphere is very relaxed and staff are very friendly. Nice place to chill out on a Saturday afternoon.

This place has always done superb coffee and cake, but they’ve recently added a full brunch-style hot menu too. So far have had the French toast and the Eggs Royale, and both were superb. Generous portion, quality ingredients, great service. Slightly of the expensive side,...

They are extending too, and adding food to the menu, so should be an even better experience. 4 stars because currently pre extn the seating is minimal
