Rawthmells Coffeehouse in City of London, Westminster

Just had a fabulous lunch in the newly refurbished RSA coffee house. Aubergine, kimichi and vegan mayo salad. Loads of good pastries if you want something sweet or the have a delicious cheese toastie. Nice calming atmosphere despite most people working or having meetings.

Good coffee and lots of Gluten Free choices. Sweets and soups are delicious. Staff are great also. I have not tried the wines but they seem to also have a good selection.

It really is pretty simple. You are in town and you want to find somewhere friendly and different and with a great buzz. Don’t go to Starbucks or Costa or Nero - that is just crazy, overpriced and predictable. You don’t want that - you are BETTER THAN THAT! So... Don’t walk on by the fluttering flag outside the RSA building on JOHN ADAM STREET. Come in, say you want to use the cafe and wander down the stairs. You will be met by some friendly faces and an atmosphere of calm and an awesome menu - especially the Poached Eggs (which are the best in London. No argument!) It is such a chilled place to hang out in London - spacious, friendly and a real home from home. Ever changing breakfast, lunch and snack menu too and their famous ‘guest coffees’! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Come find me and I will but you a coffee!

Me and few friends sat in for a coffee and a sandwich earlier this month, I have to say it was a very pleasant surprise to find a hidden coffeehouse tucked away in the RSA building. We heard about it from friends who have been there for meetings otherwise we wouldn't have found it. The baristas are very friendly and professional, the food is great and there are plenty of books to browse through in the Library if you have time.

Me encanta volver por más: buen servicio, buen café, tranquilo pero vibrante. Cada vez que estoy en el centro de Londres trato de venir a hacer algo de trabajo. He tenido invitados en varias ocasiones y es bueno saber que siempre habrá una cara amigable. Marco, Adri y Jane siempre están genuinamente interesados en cómo eres sin ser abrumador, exactamente lo que necesitas cuando sales de las concurridas calles de Londres. ¡Gracias al personal de Rawthmells por ser increíble!

Have been having a couple of meetings here. Food is always amazing! Love the friendly team as well - here's to Adri, Marco, and Jane! The overall atmosphere is fabulous, and that's when good conversation happens:) One thing I might suggest would be - whether it's possible to make the "buy 9 hot drinks and get the 10th on us" card electronic? either on apps or other ways? It would be great to save some trees.

I have just had the most fabulous salad; Cropwell Bishop Stilton, Braeburn Apple, date, chicory and caramelised walnut. Great value at under a tenner and sooo tasty! The staff here are always friendly and helpful in service and creating a lovely atmosphere. It's a joy to come in here every week!

A fantastic coffee house--a great setting to work , meet friends, or take out work colleagues. The staff are lovely and knowledgeabls. They really enhance the atmosphere of this special London coffee house.

I popped into Rawthmells for a meeting and a bite to eat and I chose the Korean Pork Ramen after a recommendation from the lady serving. This was literally the tastiest ramen I have ever eaten. The smokey pork and abundant kimchi and ginger made this dish rich in flavour. Forget Shoryu and other high street brands, you won’t get better than right here in Rawthmells tucked away inside RSA House.

It's a great place to come and meet colleagues and friends, providing a relaxed atmosphere with great food and a good range of refreshments. With friendly staff who always make an effort to make you feel at home I would recommend this to anyone who wants that extra level of service. Thanks Rawthmells

I sit in Rawthmells three or four times a week and it is a total delight. A brilliant all-day selection of food and drink and the nicest friendliest team running it. A smile, a greeting and swift service is a sight for sore eyes after a horrid London commute. Today I am having a ‘guest coffee’ with almond milk and very nice it is too! IT ISN’T JUST FOR FELLOWS OF THE RSA - ANYONE CAN COME IN AND ENJOY IT.

My days are always brightened up by visiting the Rawthmells CoffeeHouse at the newly refurbished Royal Society of Arts (RSA) in central London. Audrey, Marco and Jane always provide excellent service and the quality of the food and drink is really excellent, and good value too! There's a loyalty card for everytime you buy a hot drink (with a free one after your ninth purchase), and recently you can take your order via tablets around the RSA building - where your food and drinks will be bought to you!! Since becoming an Fellow of the RSA some years ago, their headquarters on John Adam Street has become one of my favourites place to work, and the new CoffeeHouse has just enhanced this!! The Rawthmells Coffeehouse has a brilliant atmosphere and is a great place to meet in central London!! I can't recommend it highly enough!!

Rawthmells is perfect. As a Fellow of the RSA, I use the coffeehouse to work and meet friends. On top of the tranquility it provides, you can get one of the best service in London. The staff at the coffeehouse is always super attentive, I certainly feel very welcomed every time I visit.

I am a regular visitor to Rawthmells Coffeehouse and always encourage others to meet me here whenever possible which underlines how much I enjoy visiting. The food is varied and is of good quality with plenty of options to meet different dietary or ethical needs and the coffee is excellent. The staff are, without exception, friendly helpful and extremely well-mannered. It also has very reliable WiFi which is essential for the work I do and it is clean, has an appealing ambience and is a fantastic meeting space. I have never had a negative experience and always look forward to my visits. I also enjoy seeing how pleased my friends and colleagues are when I bring them here and they experience the agreeable ambience, the lovely food and coffee and the wonderful staff.

This café has an ambiance that rivals any other café in and around Central London. The staff help you get to work and be productive by bringing hit food and drinks. The RSA is also headquartered here. For me, it has become a home away from home.

Ate a delicious Malay curry, suggested by the lady on the till. Food arrived in good time. Cherry on the cake - the chef gave me the recipe upon request! Heartily recommended.
