Four Corners Cafe in Lambeth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Popped in for a coffee, snack and look at their Lonely Planet wide range of travel books. Great coffee, decor rather spartan but a welcome alternative to formula cafés around Waterloo. Post lockdown I’ll be going back more.

Proper coffee for a coffee lover, I love a good quality made by a really good barista an that’s exactly what you get here, oh and the wraps are pretty dam tasty too.

Great service amazing Food. Loved this cafeteria. Very friendly stuff and great food, been twice and will definitely return.

Lovely coffee and great service but oh wow the cake was great, well worth a visit to try their cakes

So disappointing. When you're standing at the counter for 2-3 minutes before anyone bothers to acknowledge your existence whilst the 3-4 staff standing around just carry on like you don't exist. Service was slow, coffee bitter. Fell a long way short of expectations.

Ended up by chance, good coffee and very tasty pastries. Definitely recommended to avoid london crowds for moment

Four Corners still does good coffee but they rely on their historic reputation too much. The floor is shabby and covered in hazard tape. There are boxes being stored all over the room. Many of the facilities are looking run down and they don’t keep the area behind the counter clean.

My husband took me here whilst our daughter was in St Thomas’. Fabulous coffee and bagel with Nutella for breakfast. Will definitely be back

Cosy cafe with a great travel vibe - both times we’ve been here we’ve managed to nab a table and enjoy the quirky surroundings. Good coffee (classic large London prices) friendly staff - would happily return

Well it does say "voted best coffee shop in the UK", so we just had to check it out. For a change, not super trendy and barely a beard in sight, which, as a county boy, is a good thing! Nice atmosphere and certainly good coffee, accompanied by an excellent brownie (is this the perfect coffee+cake option?). The Boss had a hot chocolate, but she tells me that the chocolate is better at Scooter Cafe opposite, but I don't think they would better the coffee. Very good.

Really lovely little coffee shop. Coffee was lovely and the soup and bread, really tasty. Busy, so not much room but that's a good sign, I guess.

I used to love four corners. Sadly it seems to have lost its way. Staff were unfriendly and close to rude. Coffee cups were half full. Food was dry & disappointing. It's so embarrassing when you recommend somewhere to your friends, then you show up and have an awful experience and pay over the odds for the experience. It's not the cafe it once was.

There are loads of cafes to have a nice hot beverage in this area so they need to be on point. Staff on their phones at the counter and even though there is a sign about allergens -the server did not understand basic information. Disappointing and I would go elsewhere.

Tratando de huir de las típicas cadenas dimos con este rincón que nos deja el mejor Flat White de Londres. Pequeñito pero un oasis para despegar por la mañana. Precios acordes con la ciudad

It’s quite a while since we were last here but we decided to return on our arrival at Waterloo with our Chicago friends at the start of a three night stay in London. Both the coffee and cake were as good as I recalled - excellent!

Local ideal para desayunar. Pocas mesas y barra con taburetes. Rico capuccino acompañado de un espectacular brownie. Me gustó más...

Really delicious coffee. Unfortunately the bar chair seating is really uncomfortable but if you're lucky enough to get a regular seat then I think it would be better.

My mood in any city depends on the coffee I find. Four Corners made sure that I was in a great mood during my time in London. Great quality coffee. (From a Melbourne coffee snob).

The sign saying "LAST CHANCE FOR COFFEE FOR FIFTY YARDS" beconned me as I had a leisurely walk. I was sure there were a few more but was it 50 yards to the left or right. I was on Lower Marsh where you also find...

Petit coffee shop qui ne paie pas de mine de l'extérieur mais tres agréable. Nous nous y sommes arrêtés par...

My wife and I stayed in London for a month in April. This place was our GO TO for my loxs, bagels and Creme cheese, sweets, and the BEST coffee in all of London.

Great atmosphere and customer participation eg send a photo of your travels and get a free cup of coffee on your return - my wife wanted the recipe for the millionaire shortbread - my tangerins cake was also delicious

Fantastiskt gott kaffe, helt outstanding! Otroligt goda bakverk dessutom. Jordnötssmörsbrowniesen rekommenderas verkligen!

This charming little coffee shop is a great place to have a small breakfast. Excellent coffee, and a good selection of breakfast bagels and other small treats. This travelers’ café is just quaint and wonderful. If you bring any old travel guides, you get a...

Fantastic oat milk latte and the most enormous slice of banana loaf YUMMY! I recommend. Lower Marsh is a great during the week for a variety of street food stalls.

Stumbled upon this great coffee shop near Waterloo station this morning and was really impressed with the overall experience. The staff were really warm and welcoming, which I appreciated, and made a great coffee. A friend of mine had tea and had similar feedback -...

Next time London ill be back. Cozy little Café near the London eye. Love the brownies! If you have any guide book you dont need and they need you can get a Coffee for free - cool idea

Excellent vegan options, real good coffee skills. And don't feel embarrassed ordering a decaf which sometimes can happen (I have a sensitive nervous system to caffeine makes me loco). Really recommend.

Haben dort einen heißen Kaba und einen superleckeren Schokokuchen gegessen! Absolut empfehlenswert - es ist recht klein, aber wenn man...

This is supposedly an amazing cafe but it was full of millennials on laptops not talking, there was no choice of seating because each laptop jockey was sitting on a table designed for two people. Oh, and 30mins limit to WiFi, if you can get...

Un petit bar plutôt sympa d'êtres bons chocolats chauds et des croissants aux amandes très bons... 28 livres pour 4...

Ordered hot coffee and came out warm..asked for hot and he told me a raft of excuses...I suggested put hot water in cup first. He said I can remake ..and I think just to be smart it came back scalding hot so that I burnt...

Amidst a sea of expensive and “touristy” restaurants all around central London, this cafe is a real gem. Visited with my wife and two kids (18 and 20 y.o) and we all loved it. Coffee and hot chocolate were delicious; we all enjoyed a breakfast...

Good coffee and pastries.Reasonable prices. Small place, but plenty of room to sit and linger a bit.

Este lugar es una excelente opción para un desayuno ligero acompañado de un rico café, té o capuchinos. Totalmente recomendable...

Es ist wirklich ein sehr süßes und gemütliches Café. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und deswegen können wir es...

Brilliant coffee. a must if you are in London. The pastries are good too!! The travel guides are a bonus. Casual relaxed atmosphere.

Visited this cafe on the basis that we wanted to find a nice independent cafe for hopefully some better than multi-chain coffee and breakfast. Attracted by other reviews and that they had won the title of best coffee in London we arrived. Not knowing where...

Sorry but the staff should have a course in hygiene. One of the girls sneezing in her hands and peeled har nose without washing her hands. They should also learn to clean! It was very dirty. The cake was ok.

REally good coffee and is good quiet atmosphere to do work. its also a bit of a black hole for reception so not disturbed but wifi is not great but works. recommend the filter its pretty good

My go to coffee shop, love the V60 totally worth the wait each time and their sandwiches toasted always on point. Makes me miss my travels though :( but also bring good memories :)

It's such a shame that I won't be going back to four corners. Second morning on the trot I've been ignored by the staff. I waited 10 minutes (with no queue) whilst staff ignored me and didn't even take my order. I'm more than happy...

Consiglio la sosta in questo locale Ottimo cappuccino. Torte eccellenti. Personale gentile. L'arredamento prevede guide da tutto il mondo.

This cafe is very welcoming with walls plastered with maps and shelves with travel books. We had decent coffee and some tasty avocado/ bean salad wraps. It's on the tiny side in terms of seating space but perfect if you can find a space.

Pause déjeuner dans un endroit calme. Très bon sandwiches et gâteaux. Contents de l avoir découvert grâce à Trip Advisor.

I'm an italian girl and I went in this bar with my friends to take a breakfast: amazing! The tea was so good, cappuccino was not bad (for italian standards), but brownies are scrumptious! The location is pritty and the employses are so kind and...

we had one of their sandwiches it was tomato and mozzarella no too specail but I would recommend. We didnt try their beverages which it seems like they’re known for.

Leuk tentje, je loopt er bijna voorbij. Heerlijke koffie, broodjes en sapjes. Heel geschikt voor leuk ontbijt en zeker niet...

"Work is boring - bunk off instead" screamed a sign in this quirky cafe. What a great idea banning laptops over lunch times and weekends. My visit was early morning whilst the Lower Marsh Market was unpacking for the day - the smell of international...

Nice atmosphere, quick but pleasant & courteous service, The coffee is good and my cake was very tasty & fresh. Good value for money. Visited for the first time in April. I shall return when next in the vicinity. Better than any chain.

Amazing relaxed friendly atmosphere, stunning cakes & good coffee. I can stay here all day. Perfect. Apparently i have to type more words for accurate review so heres some wasted. Worth passing all other coffee shops along the way.

Excellent sandwiches, good coffee, friendly service, books to read and an eclectic music selection. Nice, spartan interior. Pretty hard to beat.

Trendy coffee shop doing the usual but with a unique atmosphere and decoration. Food is good, coffee/tea OK - always seems to be a bit on the cold side for my liking

I saw some decent reviews on here, and as I was in the area, decided to pop in. Fancied a change from the usual chains that are in the area. Really nice coffee and very good service. Certainly one of the better places to go...

Great coffee, delicious bagels, always chilled vibes and nice music, good value discount count card if you go a lot, and if you take a pic of you and your card abroad - you get a free coffee! Perfect for informal meetings or catch ups...

Hier terecht gekomen na een bezoek aan de Houses of Parliament in Londen. Erg gezellige coffeeshop met met relaxte sfeer...

Just stumbled across this cafe whilst in Lower Marsh market. Really beautiful ambience and staff. Strongly recommend the beef and potato soup, yummy.

Perfect drop in cafe for a bite to eat and a cup of coffee. The coffee was good but I would have liked the option of a larger cup which I guess is a personal preference. The decor is a quirky sort of interesting but...

Cute atmosphere Bitter coffee — which we liked Kind staff Quirky shop with books and travel guides Overall it’s a good little place

Please and thank-yous seem to be products of a by-gone age these days.*sigh* Nevertheless, I shall continue to practice the lost art of manners despite the turning tide.

Great coffee consistently. Good cake selection, cosy venue. Staff are friendly & there is always space to sit

Just popped in for a coffee as I was early for a business meeting. The welcome is OK, felt as I was wearing a suit (business attire) I shouldn't have been there. However proceeded to get a coffee which was good, from there in the...

My expectations were too high for this place. I read the reviews and was too excited to visit this cafe. I ordered a flat white and a red velvet cake. I can fairly say that the flat white was average if not below. It was...

Eins von vielen Plätzchen auf der Lower Marsh, welches man als Frühstücksort auswählen kann. Sehr leckere Auswahl an Speisen und...

just stopped for coffee after hours in grim traffic. excellent flat whites and friendly service and some nice snacks!

They know their milk here. Foam is smooth and frothy and nobody looks at you funny for asking for an iced espresso. Having said that, though, you will find the usual boujie attitude towards condiments - they even have postcards detailing in passive-aggressive terms why...

Buen ambiente, muy agradables. Brownie, tarta de zanahoria y tostadas con mermelada increíbles. Bocatas muy ricos, y el café preparado...

There are small cute ads inside that say that they specialize in coffees and that is true. I've had few lattes, but this really was good. However, my aim was to get good breakfast and that wasn't possible. They had only few bagels here and...

Found the place walking from Westminster to the IWM. Small with limited seating but a great little spot with excellent coffee and a good atmosphere. The Four Corners passport pictures just added to the ambience

Just found this wonderful place serving the best coffee and tasty cakes where you can chat and relax to your hearts content. Hope nobody else reads this.

Fuimos a desayunar dos días seguidos. Un sitio con encanto, auténtico, y donde preparan el mejor brownie (casero) que hemos...

Une bonne adresse pour déguster un tea time de bonne qualité. Le prix est satisfaisant et le personnel très serviable

A real gem- the coffee is really good :) and the staff were so very helpful and friendly - all in a real friendly atmosphere with good quality WiFi

Visited this little gem on my last day in London and am glad i did. The cappuccino i had was good and strong, just the way i like it. Raisin loaf was delicious. Staff were very friendly. Icing on the cake was i met the...

Great welcome Good selection of food Surroundings are great What great staff and sausage and mash to die for !! Also the Turkish sausage dish yum Highly recommended

This is now my go-to breakfast place nearby the flat we are staying in. The coffee is always exceptional, the bakery goods fresh and tasty, and the staff friendly. Unassuming, pleasant atmosphere, full of locals. Don't miss if you are in the neighborhood.

Es excelente el café y los brownies. Muy recomendable, precio aprox. £5 si tomas algo y comes alguna cosita.

We looking for a nice coffee shop away from the crowds before we headed off to do a Thames Boat Trip. After the looking at previous reviews we popped in here and were not disappointed. Lovely atmosphere and great coffee, hot chocolate and olive bread....

Stopped in for a couple quick coffees and some sweets. The mochas were made perfectly and the brownie was great. will certainly head back.

Good coffee , lovely atmosphere if you pass by. Friendly staff few table with full with cheerful people

Buen ambiente en cafeteria pequeña con café de especialidad muy bien preparado y las tartas son riquisimas, en zona muy...

Je ne ferai pas un détour spécial pour y aller mais on y a juste pris un goûter, et c'était...

Quite simply, in my experience, one of the two best places you can buy a coffee in London. Nothing grand about the place - just great coffee, a selection of rather good sandwiches and cakes and a very friendly atmosphere. If you've a little time...

This little cafe near Waterloo Station and Westminster Bridge has coffee as good as we get in Australia; i.e. It's great! The croissants would delight a Frenchman, the breakfast fruit muesli and yogurt is generous and delicious, and we were greeted by smiling, professional wait...

Very nice place! We went there for breakfast and the next day for lunch. Amazing little cakes. Friendly people working there. The atmosphere was very relaxed and cool decoration (world maps, lots of lonely planet books).

In cerca di fare prima colazione abbiamo ascoltato le recensioni su questo posto è devo dire che è un angolino...

Wow. First time here as I had some time to kill and was recommended this spot by a good friend. A really well conceived space for its size and literally perfect for the brief pick-me-up I needed before going to an interview. Have to say...

I'd not been to Four Corners for a while, but this was an even better experience than my first visit. The food and drink is still great quality and vfm, but the atmosphere is even more relaxed and welcoming.The staff were friendly and helpful and...

Fantastic cafe on Lower Marsh: service of the highest order with coffee and treats to match. Couldn't recommend highly enough, a must visit if in London (not just Waterloo!)

Can not believe this place exists absolutely love it as the complete package. I stumbled on this a few years ago and it is still here. The coffee is great and this from someone who can drink 6 a day. Much prefer this to the...

This is one of my favourite places in London and I'm a frequent visitor including hiring it for a party. The place is the right side of quirky- it has a lego table and is bursting with travel delights. The food and coffee is outstanding...

Small quirky coffee shop, off the beaten track but close to Waterloo. All the obvious coffees and some much less obvious ones too. Even a guide as to which type of coffee is coolest (cold brew). Small but busy with delicious cakes and pastries. Busy...

Four Corner makes good coffee and sells cakes as well as sandwiches. My favourite is its cold brew, which is very refreshing on a hot summer day. Please note that seating is limited.

I usually grab a take away coffee but had 20 minutes to kill so stayed in. The speakers are by the serving area so staff shouted at each other despite being no more than 3 feet away, none of the four staff showed any customer...

This place is hugely popular and rightly so. Coffee made with care but without the pretentious guff that is filtering in so much nowadays! Lots of maps and travel books within too. Wins prizes, and deserves too.

Ok so living in Italy I get spoilt with the best coffee on every street corner, I do struggle to find decent coffee outside Italy too, I always find there's too much water used or maybe it's just that the water is different... Anyway, went...

Only dropped by for a quick visit as I was in the neighbourhood. The coffee is indeed nice and the selection of pastries is quite good. As far as I am concerned, staff was nice and friendly: they even told me to sit down and...

worth a visit for the coffee; not bad for London, but service consistently indifferent - staff are often quite rude and preoccupied with each other / smartphones etc... shame as would be a great place otherwise.

Regular customer since it opened. Always great coffee but recently being put off coming in due to the loud music, which I have heard as walking along the street. Also the music being played is full of swear words. Very off-putting and such a shame.

Four stars for the amiable staff and the very tasty spinach and lentil dal. For £3.5 a bowl for takeaway a bit much though and also dinking a star for not providing bread free with the soup. I mean, c'mon guys! Also got a few...
