Grand Junction in City of London, Westminster

Nice people Awful food. The sausage sandwich was dry and greasy at the same time. Coffee is not good. I always want to support small businesses but there is a limit.

Next to the angelic church the grand junction

Nice place and good coffee but indifferent personnel and yesterday’s croissants

lovely spot but horrible burned coffee. signs say to notify of allergy - I'm allergic to dairy ordered oat & got served cows milk.

perfect quiet spot along the river - lovely toasties and iced coffee - reasonably priced and a great location

Lovely café near the canal. Lovely cakes.

Great coffee and service Nice relaxed chilled location

Excellent coffee, great vibes, great music

Place used to be great. Menu has changed. Now the staff are moody, don’t tell you the price or say a word before offering the card reader, and a breakfast now costs £14. Used to come all the time, great location, shan’t be back

Very good coffee and very good chai

Perfect spot, slice of solitude in London, next to a canal. Could not be better. Tables in and out, good food. Staff are nice - only issue is the service can be very slow. You walk in, and to the counter, and instead of somebody immediately asking you what you want, they always seem to be finishing something else, some tidying, putting cups away, whatever. All important of course, and they are nice people. But somebody needs to tell them that when a customer walks in, the first thing to do is server that person. That what we catering people know is the first rule.

Food hygiene appalling. The person handling food did so without gloves, handled money and ear cleaning! The simple order was wrong 3 times - baked potato with beans. Didn’t have cheese as assistant just dug her bare hands into the mound of cheese. Potato cold. Requested a change but plain this time. Came with beans and no butter as requested. Gave in. Lovely location but you need food hygiene training.

I had a lovely Latte. I thought it was good.

I like the location, the service, staff is very kind. I ordered a cappuccino which was alining with London average coffee tastes. Halloumi cheese sandwiches was outstanding; we like it.

Wonderful little cafe with very friendly staff. The hot chocolate is yummy and the sandwiches and cakes excellent. Definitely worth you supporting this canal side cafe.

I had a espresso macchiato and it tasted like instat coffe at home, honestly disappointed 😞. Hope you improve on this, thanks.

Lovely cafe with outside dining and nicely designed building. Everything looks quirky and fresh. The staff are very jolly and friendly. The high quality of the ingredients is very noticeable and food is well put together with set dishes but you can make your own. Will be back. Reasonably priced

C’est un chouette endroit , au calme , avec les écureuils . Le personnel est super gentil et prévenant.

Lovely hidden gem right by the canal. As a boater I look forward to mooring close by great coffee / chai. But the toasted sandwiches are huge and amazing 👏

Stopped for a late morning coffee whilst cycling on the Grand Union Canal. Friendly staff & great coffee. Thanks guys!

lo encontre de casualidad caminando por el canal desde little venice. un cafe que forma parte de una iglesia. riquisimo brunch y luego visita a la iglesia. se puede comer en el jardin que tienen

Very friendly staff, can sit outside, alongside the canal. Dogs are welcomed too.

Friendly people at the cash and tasty toasted sarnie ⚡

Had a sandwich lunch at Grand Junction Cafe today. I had the toasted Tuna sandwich and my friend had Cheese & Ham. Both were really delicious, good value, cooked fresh and a great location (just by the canal walkway). The staff were super friendly and polite. I would definitely eat here again. Thank YOU!

Lush food, friendly folk, cracking coffee. Cannot recommend enough

The coffee was fine. I had avocado on toast, covered in kimchi and a spicy mayonnaise. Unusual combination; it worked, but possibly too spicy for most people I suspect. Marked down because I had to wait 10 minutes for a coffee and over 30 minutes for the avo on toast. Admittedly it was quite busy at the time.

I am still sitting here and had to review as breakfast was so good! Cool venue, right by the canal with indoor and outdoor seating, friendly service and good deals. I had mushrooms and fried eggs on toasted (fried?) Sourdough toast with a coffee, the food is very very tasty, and good coffee too, all for £7 (and a little extra for oat milk). Quiet, good for people watching, looks like they do other things too. Highly recommended.

Excellent service and the best chai latte and biscoff cheesecake. Perfect for a lunch stop on the canal.

My wife & i visited for the first time yesterday. Cafe was clean with lots of choice but 2 members of staff on were very rude and spoilt the whole experiance. Ordered vegan sausage choice to find it comes with eggs?? How is that vegan?? Need to sort the menu out!! When i spoke to guy cooking he got really stroppy! Other customers were getting wrong orders but staff seemed to busy chatting to each other or on their phones. They really let it down!! Such a shame. Food was good value though.

5 stars for their nice service. Just next to the canal, so if u out for a walk then must try them. Awesome coffee. Delicious cakes, cool, attentive n helpful staff. Beautiful atmosphere. Plenty of indoor n outdoor seatings. Love to have my coffee n enjoy autumn views spreading around.

I went today to work from there with my laptop. The place is nice and accessible from the towpath. I've got an oat cappuccino that was amazing and a sausage vegan toast. So let me tell you properly. I had many vegan tosts, sandwiches, etc etc.. that toast just blow my mind, it was absolutely incredible! I definitely recommend it. Don't get scared from the low number of reviews this place deserve more so give it a try!

This lovely coffee shop is part of one of Londons' most lovely churches - St Mary Magdalene. The coffee shop is clean, modern and integrated into the historic building. There is indoor and plenty of outdoor seating. A good range of teas, coffee, herbal teas, fresh cakes - all promptly served. We arrived as a group on a walking tour and they managed to serve us all promptly without any fuss. The cafe has toilet facilities. Do take time to look around the wonderful church.

We have visited this cool cafe a few times, and each time we have been made to feel very welcome. It's a moment away from the canal and a great place to sit in the sun. We highly recommend the breakfast deal of croissant and tea/coffee for just £3

The food was excellent the guys accommodated us last minute very grateful x service with a smile 10 stars worth the trip from Edinburgh 👍

Great coffee, amazing setting, fab staff, yummy food - what more could you want? This is a gem of a place and I was so glad to get a recommendation for it from a friend. This is definitely my new favourite cafe!

Had a wonderful morning at the grand junction cafe with delicious coffee and scrumptious cheese twists. The chap who served me made me feel very welcome and is a credit to this company. I am sure I will be back to this lovely place.

A café with good coffee is always hard to find – so stumbling on the Grand Junction Café on the banks of the Grand Union Canal is like a blessing from heaven. Possibly this explains why it’s located on the site of St Mary Magdalene’s Church, Paddington. But enough of the ecclesiastical jokes. Let’s cut to the chase … This café doesn’t just serve good coffee. It serves exceptional coffee. A conversation with the Barista explains all; “run the water for 24 seconds” and “grind the beans according to size – it varies with every bag” are just two reasons this is a café not to be missed. The toasted sandwich of cheese, tomato and prosciutto was also rather good and a million times better than average it’s only been opened three weeks and already seems to be pulling in the local cognoscenti . It’s hardly surprising. Highly recommended.

Found this friendly cafe on a ride from Denham to Primrose Hill along the Grand Union Canal. It was the only cafe we came across on the whole of the first 26 miles. And what a fantastic place it was too. Will definitely go again when cycling the path in the future. Delicious and abundant cakes and lovely coffee too. The lunch menu looked great too but we had to pass on that. Maybe next time.
