Pretty Cuppa in Tower Hamlets

Pedí un panecillo tostado con mantequilla. Después de un tiempo muy largo, recibí un panecillo ligeramente caliente con crema coagulada. Al quejarme, me dijeron que esto es lo que quieren otros clientes. Resulta que no tenían mantequilla. Pedí que me devolvieran mi dinero y me fui a otro lado.También fue 2. 50 para un panecillo tostado y mantequilla! Y eran solo esos bagels de supermercado muy ordinarios.

The place is cute but very small and expensive. The service is very poor: they didn't have anymore bottled water and wouldn't give us tap water instead, we had to ask twice for the rest of our order. They completely forgot they had to serve the table next to us and left the customers waiting for litterally half an hour. When one the group went to prompt them, they replied 'sorry we completely forgot about you'. Considering the place is very small amd there are only a handful of tables this is unacceptable.

Two pastels de nata and a small coffee for £9.90? And no indication of prices before you buy? Come on! They put cinnamon on the pastels without asking, and when I asked for a regular latte I got a small one. Probably just as well at these prices. I should add that the pastels were every bit as nice as the £1.50 ones you get at the South Bank, but £2 more expensive. As for the latte, it's just a shame the Coffee Cab wasn't there today.I wish I'd been hungrier. I could have got a good meal for £9.90 just down the road.

They charge per head, not per drink. Ordered a pot of tea to share with one other, but they failed to mention their ricidulous policy until the tea arrived. This policy meant they were expecting us to pay over £8 for a pot of tea, outrageous, they should have mentioned this when I ordered, I made it clear the tea was for sharing. Will not be returning due to terrible customer service and unfair policys.

Yo entramos en este café hoy y pedí un helado de Matcha Latte. Este costo bebida 6 libras y sabía como polvo de agua potable. Cuando volvimos a cambiar la bebida la señora estaba el borde que he encontrado en una cafetería y insistió en que todo el mundo tiene sus propios gustos y nadie se había quejado antes. Esto claramente no es el caso, teniendo en cuenta todas las críticas negativas de mencionar cómo el servicio grosero No recomendaría este café a cualquiera. Caro, servicio grosero y una mala experiencia.

A pot of tea is 8 pounds and after ordering a small pot they refused to give an extra cup. Ridiculous prices and rude service.

El servicio y la comodidad en este nivel general pequeño café es genial, pero los precios de las tortas es muy, muy alto. Mi culpa probablemente para no comparando los precios pero que esperan un pequeño costo a casi cinco pasty libras? Aún así, si no te importa el precio, y a juzgar por el número de personas dentro supongo muchos no, es una buena tienda pequeña y pintoresca perfectamente adecuado para Brick Lane.

The coffee here is good but everything else is lacking. The food on offer looked very unappetising so I chose not to eat despite being very hungry. Expensive compared to other coffee shops in the area.

Pedimos una grande, un té, capuchino espumoso… y uno 2 tartas. La cuenta fue de 20, 50 libras! ! No hay precios escrito en ningún, ni me ofrecieron una factura impresa.Las tartas donde no frescas, el café no vale 3, ninguna duda 80 GBP y el agua de una botella muy pequeña. Incluso tuvimos que pedir suggar servilletas y marrón, que no fueron presentes en nuestra mesa. No soy una persona muy exigente, pero definitivamente odio timando! !

Nos detuvimos en un café rápido aquí, tiene un ambiente acogedor, muy agradable para todo el lugar. El café era bueno como el pastel, pero un poco, me desconcertó la precio de este último. Pero estás en el centro de Londres, así que supongo que se esperaba. Volvería si yo estaba en la zona de nuevo, pero sería mejor si me redujeron los precios de las Tartas un poco.

The food is lovely, coffee's or tea's are the best. My son and I just love the place. The cakes are fab !!!!

True it's expensive but made with love:)

Staff unwelcoming from the start, ordered two chai lattes which cost over £10 to drink in !!! Sat down to wait for drinks, when brought over we were also given a slice of cake which we had not ordered but did not question when we received it since the server seemed very clear it was for us and we had ordered from him. Therefore we assumed the cake was complementary which was not so hard to believe considering the price of the drinks. After we had eaten most of the cake the female server came over and demanded we pay for the cake. When we rightly tried to argue that we wouldn’t have eaten it if we knew we would have to pay for it, she was very rude to us and made us pay £4.80 for a small slice of cake (again too expensive for what it was).

£7.80 for a pot of earl grey... Which is just far too expensive, even for a very nice cup of tea. But fine overall.

Cozy family ran tearoom in Hoxton, not far from BoxPark and Old Spitalfields Markets market. Vanilla-Chocolate muffin and Moroccan tea were very tasty. The service was friendly and we enjoyed the home-like ambiance.

Just love East London and especially Brick Lane the the very best place to have a break is Pretty Cupa. Lovely people, great service, and even better cakes, coffee or tea's. 10 out of 10.

Everything is terribly overpriced and the customer service was just awful. No wifi and I was told off when asked...

We have visited this cafe before and had an average experience, but today visit was our last... The staff was...

Yo vivo en la zona y a veces hasta bastante taza pop tener un relajante café. El personal es encantador y el ambiente es agradable y relajado. Un poco caro, pero es un fantástico lugar en general.

Un encantador café con leche, pero matcha cara a £5. 50.Además, muchas sillas estaban encajonados en una pequeña área. Esto, junto con el ruido de la música (y por tanto la conversación) no significaba que era una experiencia especialmente relajante o tranquila.

Cortado de para una parada rápida mientras explora Brick Lane. Un lugar precioso, el personal encantador y una de las mejores tazas de café con leche que he tenido!

Después de comprar las bebidas para mis colegas y pedir perdón por la gran cantidad de filmaciones kit teníamos con nosotros nos dijo groseramente y agresivamente para salir porque estábamos teniendo mucho espacio y habíamos estado allí por más de 15 minutos. Habíamos intentado cuidadosamente...

Yuuummmmmmm! .....absolutely delicious! .....& very friendly lovely service!Really pretty comfortable shop too!

Have discovered this cozy coffee shop at brick lane .. vey nice and cozy interiors however they do not have wifi but that's okay . Cappuccino is for £3.8 which is reasonable though . If you are on brick lane then do drop in for nice cup of ☕️.

Ordered an iced coffee to go. Received a hot coffee in a paper cup, topped with a few ice cubes that melted before I could take a sip. Had to ask for a bigger cup and extra ice. Again, most of it melted before I walked out the door. The result was a very watered down, lukewarm coffee. For £4.30 you'd think they'd actually know how to make an iced coffee.

Just love this place LOVELY People, great food, tea, and coffee. The cakes are to die for always do a veggie option and always have a smile.

Verrrrryyyyyy lovely, tasty and out of this world matcha... with red velvet cake and blueberry cupcake.. owners very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!! Thumbs up

Quirky and unique cafe with a cosy vibe, situated on Brick Lane. Good selection of drinks and eats on offer, and lovely staff members. Nice aesthetic inside and out. Only downside are the fairly expensive prices, but I suppose that's to be expected for central London.Other than that, well worth a visit.

£5.50 for a coffee, no wifi and no charging stations for laptops/mobile phones. There are plenty of better coffee shops on the rest of Brick Lane and Bethnal Green Road.

High quality coffee and macha latte in Brick Lane at outrageous prices. Place is small and when crowded can be somewhat uncomfortable. Nice ambience. Staff seemed quite friendly.

Pretty Cuppa is specialist in koffie en gebak! Ideaal om even een latte te drinken als je over Bricke Lane loopt.

Excelentes tartasss, delicias en sus pasteles y buena combinación con los té que tienen, lo recomiendo si quieren probar el té inglésss. No es un lugar barato pero vale la pena un gustito.

Chocolate and salted caramel cake was absolutely delicious.Nice seating, lovely porcelain saucers etc.Only thing I wasn't keen on was the hot chocolate but that's more about personal preference than anything being 'wrong' with it.A good find!

Super süsses kleines Kaffee mit leckersten Kuchen. Die Kids lieben den knallbunten Regenbogenkuchen (bunter Biskuit und Buttercreme), die größeren den Chocolate Mousse Cake - wow! Ich sage nur "death by chocolate!" Und die Scones mit creme sind auch spitze. Alles sehr nett geführt von älteren spanischen Pärchen, sehr liebenswert!

Had been meaning to pop in here for months, having walked past regularly, the cakes look delicious. They also have a really large selection of fruit and herbal teas to choose from. Visited on Sunday afternoon for a cup of tea and a piece of cake, however, I was surprised to find out a slice of cake was £4.80! I think that's extortionate, even for touristy/popular London. They were also very stingey with the pot of tea too. Myself and a friend ordered pots of tea seperately, but they gave us one pot, half full with water that only served one small saucer of tea each. We asked for more water, and were given a few centremetres - and were rude when we asked for more! I often go to places like the Wolseley and Fortnums for tea, and I have never experienced anywhere that begrudges you some more hot water for your pot of tea!The service generally was very poor. Ordering at the til felt like we were a hassle, and the lady serving did everything to make things difficult for us. It's also very cramped space, and not very comfortable for sitting in there for longer than 20 minutes. It's a shame, but I won't be visiting again.

Took my young niece here for a cuppa and some cake after shopping in the local markets.It was lovely! Staff chatty and fun and the cake was utterly Delicious!!!

Everything about this establishment is delightful - the coffee was once of the best I've had in years! Clean, subtly decorated with panache, very helpful and friendly staff and a good location on Brick Lane, London. If I lived locally, I be there on a daily basis.

While on a photo walk around brick Lane we called into this cafe for a drink and something to eat. Everyone was very friendly and we were quickly served our taosted sandwiches.Can recommend this cafe to anyone in the Brick Lane area

I do like this cafe, the matcha latte tasted nice and the scone was warmed up and came with nice jam and clotted cream. The whole thing came to £15 so thought it's abit expensive for what it is and where it is.

I really like this family run coffee shop in Brick Lane. I am a regular customer and very affectionate to their cages. I recently ordered the tastiest and most visually beautiful rainbow cake for my daughter's second birthday. Everybody loved it and asked where it cams from.Only one place....Pretty Cuppa! Thank you for helping us to make a very special party!

I was staying right next door, so went in a couple of times. Each time staff was friendly and kind, they accept AMEX, latte (£2.80 for medium size) was good, tarts I tried (carrot cake, apple pie for £4.20 each) were delicious, a sandwich was fresh and healthy (£4.80) with basil, tomatoes, cheese, etc. I can't wait to try croissants and the rest of pastries. Usually the shop is not crowded, plenty of seating space, right on Brick Lane.

Piccola pasticceria ma molto bene curata e gestita: i gestori sono gentili e accoglienti, il servizio di tazze usato e' bellissimo in stile francese tutto fiorellino, il cappuccino e' meglio di quello che bevo in Italia e poi.. Che dire dei dolci... Favolosi!!! Ne abbiamo assaggiato 4 e tutti erano golosi per niente stucchevoli è decisamente ottimi!!Consigliata pausa pomeridiana!!

Dry piece of pastry. Warm Matcha lattes. £16.20. Charged extra for 2 soya milk when we only had 1. Cramped and uncomfortable experience. Please don't bother!

ottimo servizio, gestito direttamente dai titolari molto gentili e disponibili!abbiamo preso solo un caffe ed un cappuccino, ma a londra di solito sono imbevibili per noi italiani .... quì invece erano ottimi!!!posto pulito e tranquillo anche se nel cuore di bricl lane !

Alla fine della visita di Brick Lane giovane originale simpatico quartiere, siamo entrati in questo bar. Ordinato 2 cappuccini (nonostante non si debba mai fare all'estero) e un dolce. Ottima scelta per entrambi. Soprattutto per la crostatina con fragole. Costo 10.40! Gulp ma quando ce vó ce vó

I had one of the best latte I tried so far in London, hot but not burnt and the price was ok. The service wasn't great though, a bit slow.

Popped in for a cup of coffee, good coffee at a reasonable price. Looking at the menu everything else looked quite expensive (especially the soft drinks). But for a quick coffee it was ok

I went there this afternoon with a friend, after a long walk we were fancying something sweet, so we went in, when we went to place the order at the counter the young lady ignored us for a while, cause she was too busy texting in front of us. When she finally served us we had to pay £13 for 2 earl grey teas and 2 slices of cake which were pretty much tasteless and dry, I left mine after 2 bites and it's not something I usually do with dessert. I wouldn't recommend: overpriced disappointing cakes and lousy service, first and last time there.

Came here on a Saturday with a couple of friends and was excited to try the cakes as display from window looked amazing. Very DRY red velvet cake and brownie, expensive (no display of prices!) and absolutely rude waitress who accused us of not paying for a tart when in fact it was cashier error. Not coming back again! Ever!

3.50 for a lemonade.... Chairs uncomfortable and no WiFi. The only thing that brings this from poor to avradge is that the alt coffee girls were beautiful to look at with a lovely vintage style

The atmosphere inside is very nice and cozy, coffee was good, the scone too. Wasn't really impressed by the lemon tart though. Overall £16.30 for two coffees (including a chai latte), a small tart and a scone feel quite a bit overpriced..

Siamo entrati qui per una cioccolata calda durante la settimana. Il locale è piccolino ma molto caldo ed accogliente. Il posto è gestito da una coppia gentile e sorridente. Abbiamo preso un mocha e una cioccolata calda, ottimi.I prezzi nella media per essere a shoreditch.Voto 5!

We ve passed this tea shop on our numerous visits to Brick Lane, but headed there on a very wet Sunday to be pleasantly surprised! Tea was served in beautiful China cups and saucers by pleasant staff who appeared to enjoy their work! We also had cakes which were to die for, and even though it was a bit pricey, well worth the visit....we d do it again!

Expensive! 4.20 + 4.80 for two cakes, after payment when asked for receipt, minute later something weird had been produced, see photo

This cafe is in the middle of a huge tourist crowd. They are not exactly impolite here, but you cannot call this good service either. Their soya latte, however, was the best we tasted in London.

Two hot drinks and a cake, just took way to long to bring the drinks. No real customer service, yes we got please and thank you.The drinks were hot, cake OK. They could do so much more. They also have these bizarre flashing lights flashing so we had to move tables they were that annoying.

Cozy coffeeshop in the heart of Brick-Lane, run by Argentinian family. They serve a range of coffee and cakes, as well as, traditional empanadas, not a lot of options for savoury choices.

I visited pretty cuppa for afternoon tea and had some of their amazing sponge cake with a cherry and cinnamon tea. I would highly recommend this place.

I wanted to eat a good cake and I found in bricklane prettycuppa. I really like it. It's a nice place to taste amazing cakes. The service is good, polite and fast. It is not big but it is lovely and hospitable. I will come back soon.

We ordered three drinks and one piece of cake and the bill came to £16.90 - we'd had a lovely Indian meal further along Brick Lane for lunch for less than that earlier in the day!!The café wasn't overly busy but the order seemed to cause great confusion (2 iced coffees @ £4.80 each, one large Americano @ £2.50 and one piece of chocolate cake @ £4.80) so we were told to sit down and it would all be brought over to us.Eventually the drinks arrived but no cake and so we went back to the counter to ask for it and they had forgotten all about it - as we'd paid upfront we asked for it, otherwise we wouldn't have bothered as it all took so long.The quality of the food and drink was fine, nothing special but fine, but definitely not worth the price paid so we won't be returning as there are plenty of other places in the area to go to.

not just their small latte is smaller than a usual small elsewhere, they charged me whopping 50p for soya milk and the 'nice' older lady didn't even mentioned it will cost me until I have paid, I didn't want to make a fuss since I have put mine and my friends coffee on my card!! for a dash of soya milk I have to pay 22%+ is very steep and unjustified!! I like to support local non-chain cafe but this small service of diatry requirement is essential in a modern cafe!! It's a touristy cafe for tourists, I will find somewhere else to enjoy my soya latte without being ripped off next time x

I popped in whilst walking through Brick Lane. I thought the tea and scones delicious and being able to see outside a bonus. The place was clean and quiet and I did not find it overpriced at all. I come from outside of London and it compares well. Staff were friendly but not in your face.

£9.40 for 2 tea cup sized coffees and 1 piece of carrott cake ,even by London standards that's steep Customer service nil paid the above charge then wanted another £,4 odd for the other slice of cake that she had forgotten to charge for making he total bill over £13 ,told her to take it back and customer service went out of the window very quickly ,not worth anywhere near the prices charged no wonder it was empty Avoid ,even by londons prices definatley not worth the prices

To die for chocolate tarte absolutely lovely. My wife and I had a coffee and tea, friendly staff and perfect location

Stopped for a warm drink on a weekday afternoon. The chai latte was delicious and the service was great.

Nice little cafe. Staff were polite and the China set our tea was served in was lovely as were the cups and saucers. Main gripe however is if you are going to serve tea in a big lovely tea pot then why only half fill it. A real bug bear with me as extra hot water cost nothing.

My mum and i visited here only 4 days ago and we LOVED it! The place was so gorgeous and so quaint, we loved how the tea and coffee was served in china cups, the scones were beautiful and the staff were just so pleasant and welcoming! 100% we will recommend this cute little place xx

Was here for a little meeting and the food was so so good and reasonably priced too! The staff were lovely and attentive, too.

A tiny cafe looks like a perfect place to warm over a cup of tea and excellent spot for people watching, so 2 stars. Music too loud, a killer really, I asked if they can kindly reduce it and the waitress rudely said that this is the way it is always. She did reduce in the end. The place is so tiny, she was pushing me all the time, when I was sitting by the window. WHat is the reason of having this seats when ppl cannot actually enjoy them?? Continous pushing made me leave.

Buon caffè per essere a Londra.Locale carino e curato nel servizio.Vasta scelta di dolci, torte tutti buonissimiUn po caro ma siamo a Londra!

Had a little chocolate cake that was dry and uninspired and a cappuccino that seemed to come out of a vending machine. Great window view for people watching, but overall a listless and generic experience.

I went here with some friends over Easter weekend. The place is very quaint and nicely decorated and the member of staff that served me was friendly but that wouldn't be enough of a pull for me to go back. I had a small latte (which was very small!) and a salted caramel and chocolate tart. The tart sounded promising and certainly looked the part but actually it was a little flavourless. And then there was the price. I've seen more expensive places for sure, but for what you get, I founded this place very pricey indeed. I had originally wanted to order a chai latte and then saw they would have charged me £4 for it...so I opted for something else.Also being such a small cafe, it was a bit of a squeeze finding seats and therefore a little uncomfortable. When one of the members of staff was clearing a table, there was hardly any space for her to do so and as a result she was bumping into us while doing it (and didn't apologise about it).All in all, I wouldn't return. There are lots of far better places to go in the area.

Had some lovely morning tea and cake here. Jazz music playing, attractive decoration, lovely atmosphere. Great friendly service. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

I will never set a foot into this cafe worst thing iv experienced. The staff are so rude don't know how to run a business and to top it off the owners seem to think everyone loves them I can prove on here alone

The coffee is really bad and it takes them forever to make it!!! Most importantly the staff is extremely rude!!!Very disappointing!!

I went to this little coffee shop with a friend for cake and tea. A bit cramped but cute. The tea was in a nice china cup which was nice and the fruit tart was lovely. The music was a bit weird - not that enjoyable to listen too. But it was a good experience overall.

I and my boyfriend went to Pretty Cuppa around two weeks ago to get a coffee. We had only half an hour as we had to come back home to pick up our online shopping. We ordered two cappucinos to seat down as we thought that half an hour was fine for coffee. After 20 mins we still didn't get our coffee and people who arrived after us got served earlier. We reminded them at least 3 times about our order but they kept forgetting about us all the time. After 25 minutes they gave us our coffee in take away plastic cups as we had to leave. Unbelievable, they didn't even apologise and charged us for seat down coffee. I will never come back there and make sure that all my friends know how bad this place is.

Have been here a few times, lovely cakes, tea and coffee good and staff always polite and helpful. But the atmosphere would be much nicer if they didn't play the loud music, this really spoils it.

i bought 4 macaroons(2 of them stale) and a 5 pound piece of tiramisu. when they cut the tiramisu they didn't cut it so the piece came from the middle. it was tiny. i didn't have the hubble telescope with me so it was quite hard to find in the box. the general attitude was of course we can charge you a fiver for an invisible piece of cake this is brick lane. bit lame really . ill stick with all the other coffee bars in the area that don't try to mug you off

The place is beautiful but the staff is terribly rude. They are ruining the image of this beautiful place.If I were the owner I would definitely fire them

I went into this place looking for directions to 'The art of the brick' exhibition, the place smelt so nice I said I would be back later. We returned about an hour and a half later, the owners were lovely and helpful, the soup (pumpkin) was great and it we chased it down with lovely slices of apple and almond tart.A really nice place to take the wait off your feet, and relax with a good cup of coffee.

Stopped for a break on a wander of Brick lane and had the most fab Latte.. But the pistachio cake was really divine! Lovely little spot. Nice friendly staff. Spotlessly clean cafe! Recommended...

Was visiting Brick Lane on a class trip, stopped in for a cup of coffee. Gentleman working was really friendly and efficient. We chatted for a moment and he shared he runs the business with his children and wife. The coffee was good and price was in line with other shops in the area. If I lived closer I could see making this a regular morning stop for coffee. There bakery items looked great as well, next time I stop in Ill be sure to try something.

Just visiting the area and popped into this place for a pick me up, it was a delight . We ordered drinks , tea and coffee and lunch, we had a frittata with salad to share and a ham sandwich. Everything was lovely and the people serving could not have been nicer and couldn't do enough for is. I would be more than happy to come here again, many thanks for a lovely meal

I have been here twice. The first time I entered, I got a piece of cake (Swedish cake that tasted a little like Victoria Sponge), and that was really nice. I also got two macaroons, and they were very dry and stale. Yuck! Considering macaroons are expensive, this was not on. Also, I wanted to eat in and they put my stuff in a takeaway bag. I'm not sure what that was about as I ordered cake, macaroons and a drink! Why on earth was it boxed up and put in a bag?! So I went and sat down and ate my stuff out of the takeaway bag.I decided to give the place another chance. I avoided the macaroons. I had a cupcake instead. I was told it was vanilla and it was actually lemon. It was ok but I was expecting vanilla. This time they didn't expect me to go anywhere.Both times I was on my own. The shop is a new one and is cute, but they have some work to do...I won't bother again.

My boyfriend and I went to Brick lane market and came across this little coffee shop. It's inviting and charming. The coffee is great quality and the tea comes in a teapot with china cups. The cakes looked fantastic, I didn't try them but next time i will. It's a great place to take a minute and escape from the hustle and bustle of Brick Lane

A very smiley welcome, friendly service and a great cup of tea served in proper china cups and saucers. Not posh but a haven of calm civilisation amongst the generally scruffy, ethnic emporia that line Brick Lane. Lovely, clean loo too
