L'Hirondelle Coffee Shop in Waltham Forest

GREAT DESSERTS- always get birthday cakes from here. the staff is nice and i have never had a problem with how delicious the cakes were. i love how they sell cake slices to be able to taste the cakes or just as a little treat. the cakes are always moist and stay good for days after buying. the one time i had a problem they resolved it very quick and i was so very happy. the staff is friendly. everything is reasonably priced we have been going for year and will definitely be coming back for as long as they’re open!

Truly exceptional food. The salmon frittata is a personal favourite. The staff are friendly and the restaurant has outdoor seating to enjoy as it gets warmer. A real bonus for Walthamstow

Fantastic food as usual and very reasonable. Staff are lovely and friendly. Always our go to place for lunch in Walthamstow 👍

Cheap, decent coffee and nice people- had a fun chat with them as the name is my surname in French!

Is amazing place. Warm welcome, staff are rally kind. I avoided because is not look the best but they vitrine attracted me with so much colours and healthy food. Now I’m fidelity customer and almost daily take something. My favourites is salmon croquet ❤️

It’s worth noting that I’ve only ever been to the original L’Hirondelle, 160 Hoe St. There’s a new one but the owner told me the coffee isn’t as good so I’ve only ever gone to the old one. Very friendly staff, nice decor, best prices I’ve seen in London, tasty coffee.

I had a slice of strawberry gateux cake that was very moreish at L'Hirondelle. It was wonderfully moist and light! Definitely recommend their cakes plus their prices are reasonable too - a drink and a cake was about £3.50

A better location at the top of the market, but the place looks half finished. They seemed to have difficulty making a flat white and two mochas, which were delivered after we had eaten. No custard tarts any more, and the panini I ordered contaned mostly unmelted cheese, but was tasty nonetheless. Will look for other places before returning here to see if it has improved. Complete lack of any Covid precautions.

I loved this place , every single thing was spot on well done guys. The cake was delicious also the coffee i had a late omg amazing thanks

L'hirondelle never fails to disappoint. Great coffee. The cakes are amazing and the service is always charming. Very popular place and not expensive.

This place is amazing. They bake all the cakes on the premises and also supply a lot of the other cafes along Hoe St. The coffee is great. The paninis are good and cheaper than anywhere else. The guys running it are really friendly. The North African pastries and biscuits are actually much nicer than the cream cakes in my opinion. The fresh orange juice is good too.

We had coffee and cake here. My cappuccino was nice and strong and good quality coffee. We had one of their homemade almond biscuits too which are amazing quality. Coffee and a delicious biscuit for under £3 so amazing value.

Cakes worth their calories and great coffee made using an old machine that looks like something from the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

This café has been here for 20 years and I have been coming on occasion for most of that time. The owners are Algerian and they specialise in Algerian sweets and French inspired pastries made on the premises - plus they do sandwiches and excellent coffee. My large white coffee and a piece of top quality homemade baklawa was just £3.
