Kudos Coffee in Basingstoke and Deane

Most expensive coffee I've ever had. 5p short of a fiver..but lacking in taste compared to cafe nero/ Costa. I appreciate all businesses have overheads but I cannot see how the milk and beans would cost anymore than 60p a cup. That's around a 600 to 700% mark up on retail price.

Stopped off on the way home from Southampton, what an excellent place, centre of town, great coffee, bacon bagels to die for, staff very pleasant and cost is reasonable.

I've been coming to this cafe since it opened. It does the most delicious coffee and hot chocolate ever. The staff are always kind, welcoming, friendly and helpful. It has the personal touch and high standards. (Limited food so more a drink and cake venue.). It has quite a 'cool' vibe so a little bit barren decor-wise. It used to have more tables which made it a bit cosier.

Great flat white and the most amazing cinnamon rolls! Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Also dog friendly.

South coast to Oxford annual trip needs a coffee break. Research led us to Kudos. What a find! Truly great coffee. And the cakes are good too. It was so good, we stopped again on our return journey. We’ll be back every year from now on.

Pros:- Literally the best coffee you'll ever have, Starbucks is like dishwater in comparison- Always spotless- Stylish and always playing great music- Staff are super friendly- Caters to vegans / gluten-free crowd- Serves full lunches too- discounts on refills- discounts if you bring your own cup- Has a rewards points system thing where you just give them your name each time you order and you accrue points so you dont need to remember carrying a cardCons:- Might be a little on the expensive side but you absolutely get what you pay for and I'd rather support a local business like this than an evil corporation that don't pay their taxes like starbucks anyway ;)Conclusion:A premium coffee experience, it's excellent literally every single time!

Clean, good service. Good choice of savouries and cakes. Coffe cups are a bit small but refils are avaialable

Broke our journey from Devon to Lincolnshire with a stop at this lovely little cafe. Good Covid precautions in place throughout. Enjoyed the lovely toasted filled croissants and sampled the excellent selection of drinks including half price top up on coffee. Good service rounded off the trip

We visited Kudos Coffee on a Friday for breakfast, we both had the brie and cranberry ciabatta (I had bacon on mine) which were very good. We also had drinks and it cost £17.10 which was good value situated 5 mins from Bombay Sapphire it is worth a visit.

Visited this week, very impressed firstly with the Covid-19 measures put in place by the establishment. Staff welcoming and friendly,coffee was great. We had some toasted sandwiches and then some cakes which were all very good. The sandwiches especially were very tasty using high quality products, will call again and would recommend.

What a place!My partner and I visited Kudos Coffee on the way home and what a find it was. My partner had a hot chocolate and I had a Nutella milkshake on recommendation from the barista. I also had the sausage roll and my partner had the brownie. All of it was superb and great value too.Kudos to everyone involved! Can’t wait for my next visit.

I have visited this cafe 3/5 times before lockdown never liked it after lockdown i had 4 visit just for coffee this lot is same as usal boring rude 2 expensive quality of coffee not good mind you folk i do spends more then £30. A week on coffee.its better in the petrol station then Kudus

Cycled through Whitchurch today and were pleasantly surprised to see the place open. Had heard good things but not tried it yet. CV19 restrictions inside were sensible and logical. Full menu available so we had a bacon bagel and a cappuccino each. Bagel was generously filled and delicious. Cappuccino was quite superb. I’m not a big coffee drinker but I would be if every cappuccino was this good. Service was very friendly and efficient. Definitely looking forward to trying more of the menu delights in the near future.

Nice to see something other than a chain. A lovely flatwhite with non dairy alternatives. Good place for a meet up as bright and spacious. Parking outside can be tricky but plenty of free spaces in the area

Great coffee with a far nicer flavour than all of the big chains. Friendly service and a nice range of nibbles to go with the coffee. Just be careful of the morning parking restrictions.

My husband and I stopped into this lovely little cafe on our long way through to the West Country earlier this week after reading the excellent reviews on here. Well, we certainly weren't disappointed! In fact we had such a good time I felt compelled to right my first ever review. The decor was simple but stylish and the atmosphere was relaxed, warm and welcoming. I had one of the best coffees I've ever had (and I've had my fair share) and the food was delicious too. We were recommended the Bakewell by one of the lovely staff members, and they were right - absolutely scrummy! There's plenty of seating and we were told it had recently been extended to include the shop next door. The new area was a bit quieter so perfect if you're looking for somewhere to enjoy a quiet moment, but we preferred to sit in the main seating area so we could enjoy the atmosphere. Everyone who came in was greeted like they were a friend or a local, so they must be doing something right if they're so well liked by the people who live there. They even allow dogs in which is lovely to see. All in all, we had a great experience and are looking forward to popping back in again on our way home next week.

Joined friends for an informal chat so quite surprised at the size of the place and that we could get some privacy. Well done for local initiative.

Beautiful coffee. Lovely food. Calm and happy atmosphere. 3 friends came for breakfast early. Thriving place - would definitely come again.

Despite not being a coffee or tea drinker, which I am assured is excellent at Kudos, I still find myself regularly visiting for their food and the atmosphere. Personal favourites are the New Yorker Bagels and the Blueberry and Elderflower Cake. Oh and they are dog friendly. Keep up the good work.

Staying nearby and needed a pit stop before our hotel opened for check in. Nice variety of coffees and cakes. No syrups :( would come again. Would be a nice place to go often if local.

Great coffee very friendly place. Staff very friendly. Very clean. Free wifi and charging points. Very good quality Cakes.

I met a friend for lunch here. Great coffee with half price refills. Free water to help yourself to. A slightly limited lunch menu, all very bread and pastry based, but the granola and yogurt was amazing and the ciabattas were tasty. It feels like a very modern city cafe.

Fantastic coffee, delicious home made cakes and very friendly and enthusiastic staff who made us very welcome. Thank you!

The staff were delightful and couldn’t have done more for us. The food and coffee was great too. Highly recommended.

I have visited Kudos on a number of occasions. On every single visit the service is always very polite and friendly. The coffee is amazing you will find it very hard to find as decent cup of coffee as this in the local area

We stopped here for breakfast on the way to visiting The Bombay Distillery Sapphire Distillery. No fry ups here all healthy options. We had porridge and croissants and one of the best cappuccino’s I have had. Had to have a refill. Highly recommended.

We've been to Kudos over the past two years and have loved every cake, pastry, and coffee we have had from the place. Just last week they opened next door to expand the shop and what a fantastic addition. Adds a quieter more secluded area for chatting and kicking back to enjoy one of their great coffees. Can't wait to see if they open more shops nearby!

This was not my first visit, but the selection of coffee is good, and the trendy, but small place is bright and comfortable. What was very impressive was that a man with a guide dog was accommodated with polite friendliness! I took two granddaughters and they enjoyed the visit.

Visited on a Sunday lunchtime. Quite busy but service and food were quickly dealt with. Excellent croissants!

Kudos Coffee is the sort of Cafe that every village needs. A friendly welcome, a happy smile and quality produce, lovingly served at a fair price. Very very tasty

Popped in here for a coffee after a visit to the Hardy’s Cottage Garden nursery. The coffee and walnut cake was absolutely divine.

This is a very modern, bright and cheerful coffee shop in Whitchurch. It's a sweet village that even has free public parking as a bonus!

Pros: Small, friendly and welcoming. Coffee good.

The food was average and their drink variety was good.

Very friendly inviting cafe, we were welcomed by the staff as though we had known them ages but this was our first visit. Great coffee with a nice ambiance

Kudos is the perfect little cafe to stop off in for a coffee or hot chocolate. The milkshakes there are some of the best and the offer gluten free options to eat.

Great cakes and sweets, attentive enthusiastic service, clean, quick, what more do you need from a coffee shop? Maybe just one thing, I find the coffee a little bitter and strong, they are more than happy to adjust for you but might be nice to offer a more mellow blend for the recent coffee converts amongst us. But, all in all, I promise you will not regret a penny spent in this a1 establishment!

Breakfast pit stop after coming off overnight ferry from France. Could not have picked a better place. Porridge with red berry compote was delicious. Coffee, pastries and sour dough toast all good quality. Nice to have coffee in proper size of cup, rather than a bucket. £20 breakfast for family of four. Hat-tip to the friendly, efficient barista who was flying solo on a busy morning.

Popped in for coffee on way to the distillery. Nice coffee and great friendly service. Cafe is clean and tidy and a good menu.

Always friendly staff, great service & yummy treats. Great place to catch up with friends...only wish is that they had larger premises, to fit more of us in.

Stopped off in this quaint village for morning coffee on our way to somewhere else. Unfortunately road works within the centre didn't do anything to help traffic or pedestrians trying to get about. As for the coffee shop - basic.

We've not been to Whitchurch for a while so completely missed the opening of Kudos but it's a very welcome addition to the village and we'll definitely be going back.

We needed to find a decent coffee stop between our home on the South Coast and our Son and Daughter-in-laws' home in Steventon.

Driving through the Village we stopped for coffee/tea and found this place. They serve good coffee, pots of tea and good portions of lovely cakes in a nice cafe.

Stopped in for lunch with my sister. Panini out of this world and spoilt for choice on dessert. Highly recommend.

This place is amazing its modern good looking staff. I was served by the super friendly luke. This place is bog friendly and omg the coffe is super never tasted a better cup of coffe well worth the prices

Enjoyed a coffee here while passing through on a tour of the area. Pleasant place really nice coffee friendly staff

Can't recommend this coffee shop highly enough. Great Coffee, awesome food, clean modern and classy. Situated in the centre of Whitchurch its worth a visit.

I’ve called in to Kudos many times, it’s always great service, great coffee, and a really good relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended.

We stopped off in Whitchurch on a journey south to the Isle of Wight. We found this lovely, friendly, privately-run cafe, which I am happy to thoroughly recommend.

I've visited quite a few coffee shops around the area over the past few years as I cycle around Hampshire and nearby, and this morning a bunch of us stopped by for refreshments. This is a little gem. Great coffee, a nice little selection of pastries and cakes and friendly service. Nice one.

Always very friendly and vegan cakes to die for. Particularly good place to visit if you have a dog with you.

Visited 06/10/2018 and loved the decor, friendly staff, and great coffee/drinks with cake. For a village to have such a modern friendly coffee shop and is a hub for the community to meet up. Great with my gluten free allergy and quality of food and drinks were great will defiantly visit again when passing through.

Prompt service and great sausage rolls. Quite busy during our visit so a little noisy but a great little café.

Excellent coffee,cakes and breakfeast.Excellent free parking near by.Picture postcard village.Nice bakery and pub.

Kudos Coffee is the most perfect coffee shop! The decor is gorgeous, it’s modern yet cozy and welcoming - think Hygge! The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the shop is suited to all ages - even dogs are allowed! My Husband is the coffee drinker and loved the lattes and I was very happy with the delicious teapigs selection. You can also have delicious cakes and pastries. We can’t wait to visit again soon!

The team knew what I meant when I asked for a chai tea latte Good choice of cakes and can even do breakfast Very polite friendly service Clean environment

Just a brief late afternoon visit. Coffee and cake. Young barista was friendly and helpful. Coffee was one of the best we've had outside of Spain. A latte and a long black. Cake moist and taste. If in the area this is a must.

Good coffee, decent enough pastries, and lovely staff. Also very impressed that they bothered to handle a cantankerous old couple who had been terrorising local parents, making them feel very upset and uncomfortable at their local coffee shop with children. Generally very good, and nice to sit and do an hour's work over a couple of coffees for a change of scene.

In the heart of Whitchurch, with free parking just a few yards away, it’s a perfect dog pit stop. Friendly staff who have our puppy a treat on arrival. Lovely smart contemporary cafe. Lots of cakes and drinks on offer, with music for a great ambience if there hadn’t have been a screaming kid there!

Discovered this great café on a 2 day bike ride. We called in on the way out and just had to stop again on the way back. The guys working there are very friendly, it's a really relaxed atmosphere and the cake is delicious, especially the divine rhubarb & custard cake. Want the recipe!

A very good coffee house, which concentrates on the things it does best: cakes, other baked goods (including sourdough bread!, and coffee. Everything on offer looked fresh and appetising, and the service was surprisingly quick given the high clientele-to-staff ratio.

Only had iced coffee in a lovely air-conditioned cafe. Good service and excellent coffee. Very busy, with mainly locals, always a good sign

What a great little cafe. The 3 guys running the place was so friendly and helpful with everything. The food was amazing and the ice latte was just what we needed on a hot day. Our daughter loved the Oreo milkshake and her cake. Would definitely be back.

We came off the busy A34 road at the little town of Whitchurch for lunch and found this little coffee bar. Home made quiche with lovely dressed salad and great cup of tea. Perfect little lunch. Great choice of cakes too! Recommended.

It's worth a visit to sample their cakes, we all had something different and all tasted amazing. Nice decor and friendly staff.

Great coffee lovely cakes great service kind staff. very friendly have been for take out and sat in would recommend my friends like it too

We recently visited Kudos on our way across the country to Petersfield. It was a much better option than a service station for a cup of tea and piece of cake.

Called in here having had an unsatisfactory experience at a nearby coffee shop. Having walked round the whole of Whitchurch it seemed the only place to get lunch and we were not disappointed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Had a tasty panini and coffee. It was a great environment for sitting and catching up with friends. The cakes looked delicious but sadly didn't have room so will have to return for cake.

Kudos is a great and much-needed addition to the coffee scene in Whitchurch. The staff are very friendly and keen to please. One small gripe though - the coffee needs to be double the size to really satisfy the stomach and pocket!

Me and a friend popped in for a quick drink after going for a walk.

Our local coffee shop which is lucky for us! Great owners and staff who are all very friendly. Coffee is amazing, honestly have found it hard to find better, cakes and the like are super tasty. The sausage rolls and ham and cheese croissants are a personal favourite, have had far too many to count! The loyalty scheme is ideal for locals, the fact that we can take our dog in is just the icing on the cake after a nice morning walk. The other cafe’s around don’t come close! For a new coffee shop, they are nailing it! Adding air-con has been a nice addition as it could get toasty on a warm day! Stop in - you wont regret it!

A nice coffee shop that tries to do something different. Staff are very friendly and most importantly coffee is really nice...

An after school treat for myself and my teenage daughters who attend school locally.

This coffee shop is local to me, and it's a great addition to Whitchurch. Friendly service, lovely coffee and great vegan cakes.

A wonderful little coffee place. Beautiful, smooth coffee, welcoming staff and the Millionaire Brownie is to die for 😍. I really wish Kudos was closer to home.

Visited this great little coffee shop recently. It’s very well decorated and the coffee is the best I’ve had for a long time, the service was also excellent. I will be returning when I’m in the area next time.

This coffee shop has been such a great addition to Whitchurch. The coffee and hot chocolate are recommended. There is a great selection of cakes and always a friendly greeting from the staff!

Superb coffee, delicious food, attentive service, lovely decor, kid friendly. What more could you want?!

Pop in to have a lovely chai oat milk latte whenever I can, recommend trying. Staff very friendly and has a lovely atmosphere. Great place to meet up with friends for a coffee treat.

Great little find. Simple decor but well presented. The staff were particularly friendly. We tried the raspberry bakewell slice which was just perfect and the flat white was beautifully made and served in sensible sized cups. Only one small criticism was the coffee needs to be hot and it wasn’t. Didn’t really have the chance to tell them but we’ll be going back and I’m sure the coffee will be hot and then it’ll be a 5.

Went for coffee with two friends and our babies and ended up staying most of the afternoon. The decor was lovely, the staff were very friendly & accommodating and the food delicious! I can recommend the Millionaire Brownie! We will definitely be returning.

A great little find on our way back from Winchester. All so lovely, can't fault at all.. wonderful service, freshly made croissants and the cakes looked lovely too. Flat white coffee, delicious and in a cup and saucer too. Keep the full fat milk, it's better for you!!

We stumbled across this little coffee shop on a quick visit to Whitchurch and it was exactly what we wanted. We spend a lot of time in Brighton where there are hundreds of coffee shops and Kudos ranked well up there with the best of them! Lovely friendly atmosphere and can heartily recommend a visit. We will be back!

Nice coffee, you get good service, the staff are friendly and they serve lovely cakes.... would recommend .

Superb place with very friendly service Very good coffee and some snacks been just perfect Highly recommended

Great coffee shop, good atmosphere, good décor (and well done for letting well behaved dogs in!). My only comment would be they only have the choice of full fat or skimmed milk. The majority of the population are more health conscious these days, and would never dream of having full fat milk, whereas semi skimmed is far too watery. Most of the other main chain coffee bars just serve semi-skimmed, which seems to be far more popular. Can you consider doing this?! And for those of us who are a bit health conscious, some savoury snacks instead of just cakes? I will visit every lunchtime if there were savoury snacks!

Great coffee, great service, lots of amazing cakes and pastries. I had an excellent sausage roll. Only downside, not much other than the cakes and pastries, they recognise this and will I am sure address when they can.

Not through choice I can only drink decaf but I love the taste of their freshly ground decaf beans , well done !

Really friendly and welcoming little cafe in Whitchurch and serve a fantastic flat white and delicious snacks- highly recommend the sausage rolls!

Great little coffee shop. Good for a drink after a local walk. Dog also welcome which is a great plus.

I have enjoyed 2 visits to this new coffee shop. There is a nice ambience, just a pity there is not more space as the owners have made the room very attractive but the tables are very close. The coffee and cake were delicious and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Lovely new place in the town, very tasty food and friendly atmosphere and service. I'd go there again.

We have visited Kudos a few times now. This is an independent coffee shop and the owners Rob and Jenni have put a lot of effort into making this place a little gem. I’m a big fan of the ‘roasting party’ beans they use. And the enormous sausage and apple rolls. Had a few cake slices as well so I’ve sampled a lot of their menu. Highly recommend.

This was my 3rd visit to Kudos and I’m not a coffee lover so I went for the hot chocolate and my other half went for the white hot chocolate - the white hot chocolate in particular was yummy! I also had the salted caramel and peanut butter cake and that was absolutely delicious.

Great coffee amazing staff and decor place feels amazing and always welcoming cannot fault it at all .

Excellent place for catch-up with friends over a decent cuppa. Lovely selection of cakes , great tea and coffee and the best hot chocolate ever! Superb customer service.

What a hidden gem this place is! Not only is it independently owned but it’s a real touch of class in the local area. The coffee is good and strong! The staff are really friendly without being intrusive. The owner even explained the roasting process to me and my friend. However the most delightful part of my visit was finding out that they serve vegan baked goods too! The vegan carrot cake was insanely good and I can’t wait to try the vegan cinnamon and raisin cookies on my next visit!!

Popped in last weekend to see what it was like. Very pleasant staff and lovely coffee and cake, will definitely give H's a run for their money.

We went to Whitchurch to see the silk mill and found this cafe on line. It did not disappoint. Great coffee and cake. Highly recommended.
