Il Molino in Wandsworth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely cafe. Choose Il Molino over Pique next door and chose here as the ambience suited me better. The coffee was top top mark! The service was excellent and staff were very friendly. I was a little disappointed with the pastry. I tried the orange Polenta cake which was a little dry. However can’t fault anything other than that and will be returning

Gorgeous little cafe with a nice buzz. The food is delicious and fresh pastries. Lovely Irish girl serving. The too good to go bag was great value!

Great find - they open earlier in the morning so if you need your caffeine fix, stop by at this friendly neighborhood find

Excellent place, friendly staff, great coffee, good simple food. Recommended.

This one was ideal, sandwiches were great, coffee was good, the sweet things were delicious too and it has good option of choices for food. Nice place for a quick bite and catch up

Highly recommended it all.Best café in lavender Hill.

Excellent food and service! Must GO!! The best cafe in london!! Must try their panini and Oat latte! I've tried all cafes on London and this is the best!!!🫶🏻

Wholesome cafe with rustic Italian style. Simple classic menu.

Nice atmosphere accompanied by amazing food,staff is friendly,definitely coming back

Nice cafe with fresh italian products and fresh juice. Nice vibe inside. I really enjoyed their piadina.

Bright and cheerful location with a temptingly wide selection of drinks and pastries!

I visited this place today… the pastries were nice, but, the coffee extremely overpriced - the typical place that u just try once and never do back to! You guys should reconsider your prices! They are not balanced with what you offer or even with the amenities/comfort of the venue .

Little cosy cafè the cakes are absolutely faboulose !! Nice staff preparing nice coffee!! Good discovery

Lovely coffee (the best I've tasted) Panini's are fantastic to. Always a warm welcome in the rustic establishment.

Wunderbarer Ort für ein nettes Frühstück, exzellentes Essen und nette Menschen, Pluspunkt sind die glutenfreien Angebote <3

Really appreciate that they properly heat the panino here so the filling is hot. Also best chocolate cookie in S London.

Nice café serving Italian food. However, I wouldn't classify it as an authentic Italian bar.

3.20£ per pastry and they are not even fresh ): looked nice from outside

Owner regularly blocks side road next to restaurant. Today he caused me to sit 10 min on my road due to his bad driving/parking. And no it was definitely you the owner blocking the small side road at the back which caused a backlog and stuck traffic.

Visited this cafe for the first time while walking past as it looked nice. I entered was ignored for a good while and then the staff member served someone behind me in the queue. It was incredibly rude. It’s a small thing but it gave such a bad vibe and I won’t be returning.

Lovely deli, a great place for a light bite, great selection and friendly staff

Cute boutique Cafe. Not too big in inside. Nice service.

It's lovely to find a friendly and different place to enjoy a coffee and Danish. Welcoming young lady served a very good flat white. I am not local but would be a regular here if it were possible.

Used to eat here alot but on a recent visit was disappointed,I got lasagne and salad and for 11.95 the portion was extremely small! The lasagne portion was ridiculous however it did taste nice.

Just a nice place to have lunch and chill

Super chill place, unique set up, very accommodating. Would recommend.

Allergy warning. I am allergic to pistachio nuts and asked for one of the small lemon croissant pastries. They confirmed this was lemon. Bit into it and the filling was green - had to then ask and they said yes it was pistachio. Staff didn’t even apologise and had no appreciation for how serious the situation could have been. Unbelievably poor.

Very good coffee and delicious pastries!

Very rustic and down to earth cafe with great staff.

Great place. Always friendly with excellent and wonderful coffee!

Very expensive and not even tasty unfortunately.

Amazing local place, the coffee is delightful.

One of the best Aubergine parmegiana IV had in London!

The food is very authentically Italian and everything I've had is delicious!! I love the falafel wrap and the salad box!! Very friendly and helpful staff too. Highly recommended!

Shop open till 5. We appeared, visiting area for event, about 4.20 ish. Staff member made it clear they closed at 5!! OK. We just wanted a brew. She was not happy and made it very clear to us she wasn't. Shame

Croissants and pastry are always stale. Literally, every day, every time I have some faith and try again hoping they’d be fresh… they never are. The food too is just below average. It’s just a cute looking place and they lure you in. I just can’t believe how overrated this place is.

Great coffee.... Nice old building

Sweet little cafe, although was very surprised at the prices. Felt was unreasonable to pay £16 for a tiny bit of quiche side salad(which was very basic and only 1 chunk of falafel) and orange juice. I love going to independent cafes but don’t feel the service was particular good. Lots of lovely places to eat around Clapham Junction which are much more reasonable!

Lovely coffee spot with friendly staff.

Lovely little coffee shop/Italian food shop. Could have done with a bit more space for seating. Remember to get your RWRD app e-stamps though!

Amazing Italian cafe...food very tasty

Cute little coffee stop. They have a nice selection of savoury lunch type foods and some Italian cakes and sweets. They sell some niche imported Italian bakes including a delectable brand of panatone. Coffee is tasty, smooth and made well. They do nice smoothies too.

My truly local coffee house. Love this place!!

Great little cafe! Great range of food and coffee

£3 for a dry muffin that's clearly being sitting there from yesterday. Over priced and overrated. Nasty review for a nasty muffin, perhaps you need to harden up, like your muffins. Have a great day. I appreciate the freshness of your response like I appreciate buying fresh muffins. ❤

I did not rate it 5 stars. It was overpriced. Also I should have returned the cake I bought to bring home as it was stale!!!

Covid restrictions appear to have hit Il Molino hard. I visited the café on one of my first weeks moving to the area and haven't been back, nor would I recommend it. The look and feel of the place is outstanding and you're immediately taken to somewhere in Europe. However, this is where the magic ends. The coffee has hints of greatness but for the most part is low quality and the service felt unenthusiastic. This is of no fault to the barista however; as it felt under-staffed and that is most likely a result of the pandemic. Edit: It seems I gave them a benefit of the doubt by attributing their poor customer service to Covid-19. Clearly the customer is still their lowest priority as they tell me to F.O. If you see this review - just go elsewhere. There are plenty of other café's within a 5 minute walk.

Little cosy cafe place! They do breakfast, lunch and great cakes. Is my favourite cafe place around Clapham, I will definitely keep coming back ! Staff is super friendly and lovely, specially Maria.

We've been going here once or twice a week since November to get take-away coffees/paninis. The food is great but the staff/service is really poor: - We frequently have issues with our orders being incorrect (i.e. multiple customer's paninis going in the toaster, we getting someone else's, or ordering a latte and getting a black Americano). This is bit silly given we order the same thing every time and have been regulars for months now. - The staff regularly refuse to stamp our loyalty card. They just smile and say they'll do it later. - The staff are constantly changing. There is without fail a new person every time, so the coffee is very very hit and miss. - Staff often aren't wearing masks - there was an instance where a staff member went out from behind the counter, hugged a friend outside the shop (whilst we were queuing out down the road!), came back in and resumed handling food without changing her plastic gloves/washing hands. You want to support local cafes, and I love the Italian range here, but we're drawing a line and are taking our custom elsewhere.

I paid around £5.50 for a chicken, cheese and pesto panini that wasn’t of good quality.

Actually very disappointed with my order, not value for money .

Lady who served me today was definitely having a bad day. I can't believe how careless she was while serving me. She also changed the price of my iced coffee (+30p) while preparing it without any reason. Someone should teach her what is customer service about. At least say thank you and make eye contact after your clients pay. it is not that difficult. By the way, my partner was served by a guy and experience was great! Hats off to him!!

I went here on Saturday morning after staying with a friend in the area. It was nice and quiet and i was pleasantly surprised at the amount of variety they had on offer. The coffee was exceptional, one of the best I've had to be honest! Much nicer than the chain coffee shops! The almond croissant was great as well. When I'm back in the area I will definitely be returning.

Nice food and service usually, unfortunately today the experience wasn't pleasant. I told the young lady twice that I want an outside sitting, she said of course but brought me food and coffee in paper box/cup. I was really surprised (there was a man drinking coffee from a normal mug at another table), and asked for at least some cutlery. The girl said in an annoyed manner that they were "just there", went inside and brought me wooden cutlery, throwing it onto the visibly dirty table. I have no idea what happened to her but would ask to pay a little more attention to the customers.

Nice local cafe, but with limited table inside

Lovely pastries, lovely staff and the cutest local costumer.. a parrot!

Sweet and thoughtful staff and great food and coffee!

Love this place.......very special memories shared with a very special person

Lovely italian charm in lavender hill. A really good place to go. Been going lately to pick my espresso and it's for sure the best I've had in that area. Really nice welcoming staff. And as a chef I need to say that the food shelf always looks really tempting from the pistachio cannolis to the colourful fresh looking sandwiches.

Perfect local bakery, definitely try the amazing Italian sandwiches and nice coffee or chai latte!

Just to say a big shout out to all the staff at Il Molino (Maria, Jo, Fatima, Hisham, Janice) great coffee, great tea, great food and great five star service too, thank you!!!

All I can say is...almond croissants to die for!

Nice place to have a coffee and a bite.

Excellent Italian Food and Wonderful Staff!

Just the best. This became my second home while I lived in London. I truly can’t say enough good things about this cafe. Lovely food and wonderful people. Thank you!

Fui a tomar un café. Dos chicas sirviendo. Una tenía una máscara que no le cubría la nariz y apenas le cubría la boca. El otro no tenía ninguna máscara. No volverá hasta que se obedezcan las reglas

Very cute place and sweet friendly staff. Reasonably priced

Not really my type of cafe, but the place was alright. The staff was not really that helpful and quite slow, but the coffee tasted alright, just like an average coffee but a bit overpriced.

Great breakfast with fresh ingredients and delicious food.

It's a fantastic place with very nice people!!

Mario, el gerente, qué estrella, ayudando a un miembro del NHS cuando el tiempo es difícil y tantas incertidumbres. Proporcionando lo que pudo como supermercados se desgarran sin dejar suministros básicos, una pequeña cafetería como esta necesita apoyo de la comunidad, cuando este tiempo haya pasado, visítenos y apoye, ya que me aseguraré de devolver este amable gesto. Gracias x

Super Friendly, super food, worth a trip... lucky locals !!!

Friendly service, great coffee, nice vibe, and mouthwatering array of delicious looking food.

My friendly neighbourhood cafe, nice coffe good food an friendly staff. Big selection of cakes and sweets

It is full of locals but adorable place. Tasty food and great customer service

This is my daily cafe and I love it. It is so nice to be greeted by friendly staff, to have lovely food and a great atmosphere. Nothing better!

Love this place, great coffee and food. Really like the music too. Definitely pop in if you can

Good food. Nice atmosphere and great mellow jazz music!

Great kcosl place for lunch, lots of choices for eating in and take out

This place is great. Walked in by accident but was pleasantly surprised at how authentic, homely and good the vibe was. Nice coffee nice pastries.

Good coffee good croissant good service. Who needs more

This place was great for breakfast! Would definitely recommend the eggs Benedict, lunch is also pretty good here:

Tutto buonissimo..e molto carino il locale.

Loved this cafe. Good food. Good atmosphere. Marco was very welcoming, very kind, very knowledgeable. Will definitely be going back to this great cafe.

Great sandwiches, lovely people and just a great little business worth supporting

The eggs royale made by Roberto is amazing

Nice cafe! Friendly staff, good vibes, and quick!

Service was ok I suppose but food was way too oily and tasteless. Why is it that all italian pasta dishes no matter how different the name of it is it all tastes exactly the same. Bland, tasteless, boring.

I’ve lived and worked in London for 38 years and I can say without hesitation that they make the best coffee in town. Extremely friendly staff and delicious fresh food. Gracias Marco

I could say this is cafe has the best coffee on Lavender Hill . Except I’m not, I’m just going to say it has the BEST COFFEE

Went there for breakfast and had a great coffee with Italian panini, croissants, Portuguese pasteis de nata or tasty muffins.

Very nice food and strong coffee. I had to ask for a one shot and they were happy to replace my coffee as I found it too strong. The staff is super friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend it

Nice staff and nice Italian food.

Great little local café. Delicious coffee and cabinet food. They do food to order which looked amazing, too. Fun and relaxed atmosphere, and very friendly staff. Definitely recommend!

Just moved in To Lavender Hill and found this terrific cafe. They have a simple breakfast menu but it is well prepared and tasty. Got introduced to Marco and the staff on Sunday. All are very happy and welcoming which you want from a restaurant. You feel as if you are dining in an Italian Home. I love coffee and they serve up a terrific blend; true Italian not like the syndicated coffee shops where the coffee is ordinary and people dine solely for the internet connection. There is none of that nonsense here. You are there to eat good found, drink excellent coffee served by wonderful happy people.

Cute Cafe that is let down by rude, unattentive staff. They totally forgot our order, and when we brought it up as we paid, they couldn’t care less! What a shame.

Along with the rude staff, the Italian cakes were super dry and had clearly been out too long. We ordered pasta and it never arrived, and the whole experience was really disappointing considering the potential of the place and the money we spent. Huge shame.

Excellent food, great coffee and good value

Just about what I need to perfectly start my morning. Homebaked pastries and great coffe.

Popped in for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Very quaint and relaxing with old style music playing in the back ground. Italian owners I think. I had scrambled egg and bacon on brioche buns, which also came with a small garnish in olive oil and it was great.
