Redemption Roasters in Camden

Truly amazing place with some of the very best coffee I've ever had. However, in most of my (many) visits there's just been too much noise to be able to properly enjoy the vibes and the products. The really surprising thing is that most of the noise is coming from the baristas themselves (lots is shouting, whistling, singing...). Still amazing coffee and pastries though! It's just that this little cafe could have been so much more.

Really miserable experience. Came to do a coffee for the 4 of team working at the hospital this weekend. Was met by a really rude barista who tried to get me to not order "it's going to take ages". Refused to give loyalty points (even after downloading the special app). Just made a small latte instead of a flat white (ok that's just me being a pendant), and black americano was pretty sour. Previously a great place but this massively put me off. Never felt quite so unwelcome. Won't be back.

I spilt my coffee down me and the lovely lady working there made me another one free of charge despite the fact it was rush hour and they were really busy. Thank you :)

Really great place to have a high quality of coffee and cinnamon croissant .. Barista's here make your experience more beautiful 💓 .. btw try their ice americano 🤯

Der Kaffee ist sehr gut und das Gebäck ebenso. Das Lokal ist sehr klein und man kann nicht gemütlich sitzen. Das Personal ist nett.

Specialized coffee that sells coffee beans

Nice atmosphere and super friendly staff

A great find in a sea of bland coffee shops, definitely worth a stop. Genuine care taken over every cup of coffee and a great selection of pastries as well.

Good service EXCEPT one guy. He always acts like Im inconveniencing him by ordering, never had good service from him in the 50+ times I’ve been. I would not go back if it wasn’t on my way to seeing my child at GOSH. Not the kind of irritation I need before going into a childrens hospital

Loved the lemon cake and flat white

Beautiful location in pretty Bloomsbury. Great spot to enjoy delicious coffee and sweet treats whilst people-watching. The WiFi is strong with this one too 👌🏽 🥐

I bought a croissant, but it was not fresh and was moldy. When I asked for a refund, they refused, saying "we don't do refunds." I won't be trying it again; it's blacklisted.

The food was absolutely amazing!

Tasty coffee, delicious pastries. I enjoyed my coffee, while kids devoured croissants and cookies.

Great place to study or relax! Kind staff gave me some free pastries before closing

Great spot if you are looking for a good coffee, vibe and something small to eat. Love the sweet pastry, toasted ham and cheese croissant and salmon bagel. Coffee is great, hot chocolate is by far the best in Camden :) like also the music and staff is friendly!!! Sometimes a bit crowded, but waiting is not long and definitely worth it. ☕🌞

really great coffee, kind folks working! love that they are giving people with a past a real chance at acclimating back into society!

My favourite local coffee shop!

Lovely shop and the coffee was amazing - truly great service (went around lunch time yesterday) as well as a lovely ambiance.

I order a croasante 🥐 and a coffee both horrible the croasant was blend and the coffee was disgusting I couldn’t even drink it was straight fro the bin never again and I spend £7.60 for rubbish…

I ordered a small latte for £4. That’s a bit too expensive when the average price is 3.40 to 3.80🤷🏻‍♀️Taste ok.

Excellent coffee with very tasty cakes on display

Stopped by for a quick coffee break in this cool cafe. Excellent coffee and selection of croissants. The staff was very friendly! Also, appreciate and support the story behind Redemption Roasters!

Juliano is a hardworking gentleman who makes great coffee

very nice and friendly staff. great tasting coffee. the water tap is unexpectedly awesome

The barista who took my order was so cute that I literally forgot how to speak when I saw him. Also, great coffee, definitely coming back.

Decent, but nothing to write home about…

Loved the coffee and the abundance of pastries and sandwiches.

Hands down my favorite place to go for coffee in London. Wonderful selection of food and beverages. Beautiful clean atmosphere with seating options upstairs, downstairs, and outside. The staff goes above and beyond, and make you feel like you are at home. A coffee shop not to be missed.

Lovely service. Delicious coffee and vegan spinach pasty. They even put my son a full cup set for his babyccino

Friendly staff, great selection of baked goods, and most importantly, the amazing coffee! A shout out to Amelia and Giuliano for maintaining the pleasant atmosphere with their hard work!

Greatest staff! Amazing coffee quality with variety of food and bakery selections. Filtered coffee using Carlos Arivas beans, wonderful.

A nice little corner at Bloomsberry, their beans are fantastic and they have an amazing selection of pastries. The staff is also very friendly and warm Would love to visit again. 10/10 Keep up the good work ❤️

Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere but as a regular customer, listening to the same playlist every day can be a bit annoying 😅

Great coffee - good energy and prompt service ! Lovely vibe all round. Toasted croissants particularly good.

Tried yesterday the chicken sandwich and was absolutely amazing. My flatwhite was great and the cafe very welcoming

Tasty latte; good-looking fresh sandwiches

Large lower level space for work

One of the best flat whites I’ve had.

Great coffee, nice service and good selection of pastries and sandwiches

사람 많이 없는 시간대에 가면 노트북 하기 좋아요.ㅎㅎ 커피도 괜찮아요!

Amazing find near my apartment - as a Melbournian #coffee officianaddo - can honestly say great coffee- and the pastries looked yummy too!

Coffe is great. Elvis is a 5 star host always has a smile makes our day

My absolute tonic for the week! Best coffee & service in town!

Delicious specialty coffee; friendly and accommodating baristas; welcoming to people of all nationalities! At least it's so from my limited viewpoint... 🇺🇸

molt bon cafè malgrat que potser si vens de fora agraieixes que et desitgin en entrar un bon dia

Excellent coffee with a great social ethos. The cakes were also fantastic. Highly recommended!

Hipster Coffee place with graet tea, coffee & graet pastries. Very cool place for morning tea.

Bright and friendly with consistently rich coffee. Convenient for the shopping along Lamb’s Conduit Street. Seating at the back and on the street, in addition to the tables inside. Wi-Fi available with a passcode from the staff.

Cold brew coffee is gross! Taste like liquid that’s been left open in the fridge to pick up the taste and smell of broccoli. Such a shame as all other coffee here is amazing. And it was £4.50!!! 🤢

Coming from New Zealand beans are only half the equation of a great coffee, milk is the other. Gotta say, Redemption make the best flat white I’ve had in London! Love the farm to cup story too. 👏🏼.

Excellent latte and even better that the cafe helps ex-convicts with employment - will return

Really friendly service - just not happy having to pay 'extra' for decaf ... taking something out not adding it 😕

Coffee is the best. Food is great. Staff unwelcoming I won't go back there.

Nice batch brew coffee but the latte and cappuccino aren’t worth over 4 pounds at all.

Fantastic work and amazing coffee!

Gentleman asking for my coffee order looked miserable and was not friendly at all. At least the 2 staff that were making the coffee looked a little more happy to be there. Expensive coffee, £4.10 for an oat latte. Wouldn’t go back.

Controversial..coffee all right, but pastries mainstream. And too much hurry from staff during quite not busy Saturday morning and loud noice from cleaning coffee accessories. Not relaxed atmosphere at all for weekend, but maybe good for busy weeekdays or takeaway

Coffee is cold and the crodough is stale and dry

Pastries and sandwich were ok tasting, but service was really unfriendly. Someone on their end made an error and I wasn’t too bothered except they never apologised and were sighing and grumpy. Now I wouldn’t go back again. If you do go, I recommend the chocolate coconut ball- that was the best thing I tried

Had a coffee, Salmon and Cream cheese Bagel with a Croissant. Bagel was dry and stale and the Croissants was very stale. Salmon bagel was not refrigerated and kept at room temperature! Complained to the girl serving and she was not interested, failed to offer a refund. Only was after a refund for the Croissants as we ate the Bagel. At the end of the day it was very expensive for the quality of the food served.

Great concept helping offenders to secure gainful employment, love to see more places like this. Just stopped for a drink and pastry

Delicious coffee with excellent food and many vegan options

We came in for a cuppa out of the rain, & the staff were so lovely, and offered us some free sandwiches as they were getting close to closing, and some cakes - & wouldn’t take any money. So kind, and they were so lovely to chat to when we were in there :)

You know coffee is good when it comes with an essay.

Simply wonderful.Very quick in the morning even though it can get very busy. The staff are always lovely!

Good coffee, nice choice of food.

All of the baristas here make this shop worth a visit! They always manage to put a smile on my face and take the time to chat to me, even when they're crazy busy. It's the highlight of my day!

Seul bémol le cash est refusé !!!

I have to ask myself why do I even go there, every time I come in I leave in a worst mood then i was. Customer service is so disappointing, I swear they give better attention in McDonald's. Will avoid in future.

Visited this during a trip to G.O.S.H and The Zayed Centre for research, and glad I did. We only popped in as was looking to purchase a sausage roll for a hungry 9 year old, they unfortunately don’t sell these so a double chocolate cookie was purchased instead along with a latte to take away. The food all looked amazing and the coffee was exceptional, including the chocolate cookie which I normally find can be a bit bitter but upon taking a bite of my daughters wish I had purchased one for myself, it was wonderfully sweet and soft without bein sickly. There was a variety of sandwiches and cakes available but we was in a rush and couldn’t stay however know exactly were I’m heading on my next appointment to G.O.S.H or The Zayed Centre for research.

Expensive coffee (£.4.10), had to pay 50p for non-dairy milk and tastes like Pret - won't be going back again.

Great staff and convenient location. More than £4 for a small oat flat white (takeaway) is incredibly expensive.

Impolite, no thank you or goodbye despite my clearly sayingit to them in empty shop. General air of hostility for some reason Coffee was not good. Flat white now being served in cortado container with only 1 shot. So basically, 3.70 for 1 shot of something that is watered down, even in a smaller container. This is a place that only does coffee . I've been there many times - this is my last .

Nice place, but £4.10 for a small oat latte (50 p extra for non-dairy milk) is steep, even for London. Not one of the most atmospheric cafes in London I’ve been too, either.

Découvert en arrivant à l'appartement qui est juste à côté, thé et banana bread très sympa, accueil souriant cher mais on est à Londres 😁

Excellent variety of beans. Can’t go wrong with the cortado and flat whites

Okay coffee, service without a smile and one of the most astonishingly expensive flat whites I've ever had. I like what they're trying to achieve but not feeling this place at all, it's more of an overpriced hipster hangout with an (admirable) social pursuit tacked on the end. Not for me, sorry

Although its a cosy place yet some staff making it unwelcoming, coffee taste varies every day!! Food is acceptable. The attitude can be more welcoming.

Definitely one of the best quality coffee in London if it’s not the best. I just wished if they smile more often to customers

Had a great iced chai. The decor is really cute. Nice seating, the downstairs seating definitely the best spot to sit with large groups. Its nice and cool despite the hot weather. It is rather expensive and you dont get a lot to drink with the amount you pay but it really is good quality coffee and drinks that you are paying for.

Wonderful coffee, especially the filter.

Bad experience, the coffee was good but the waitress was totally condescending…

Really delicious coffee on a quiet and nice street! Loved the vibe of this place, and the quality of their coffee is amazing! Highly recommend if you are into specialty coffee

ordered soy mocha- quick service and cute art :)

This is a really scenic coffee store, nice aesthetic and general cleanliness. Good drink selection and friendly service.

Decent coffee and avo smash toast, but burnt milk and overcooked poachies

One of the best coffee shops around! Amazing coffee, pastries and more pricy, but high quality breakfast. Extremely kind staff, super helpful with tourist recommendations as well. Super quick if your in a rush, would definitely recommend!

Delicious coffee and pastries and the highlight is that the shop has a really nice concept. I’d definitely come back. I tried their Oat Flat White and Chocolate Babka.

false advertising by the company charging large amounts of money to the prison service so saying to training offenders and going to employ when they are released they do not employ any ex offenders. they are just out to line there pockets when the money could be spent else where helping the offenders. i will never step a foot in one of these places and thousands of others will not go there now this has been made public . its a disgrace hopefully the prison service does something about this has it seems it is there way of exploiting the offenders

Excellent strong coffee. Prompt friendly service. Some outside seating to people watch. A little pricier than other nearby cafe's but nice as an occasional treat.

Aside from the wonderful company vision, Bloomsbury is my favourite Redemption Roasters. I come back consistently for the staff, everyone in the team is kind and honest. Every conversation I have with any barista here lights me up even more than the coffee does. I would entirely recommend if you are looking for a friend, as well as a regular spot to study.

A nasty man behind the counter. So smug, like if I spoiled his day. I paid for the matcha and saw him preparing it with such an attitude and terrifying energy, I had to walk out before it was even made. I don’t enjoy food and drinks that are made by people who obviously don’t wanna be there.

A beautiful, calm coffee place with great friendly staff and an amazing social enterprise - their filter coffee gets me through my studies.

redemption coffee serves some of the best coffees in london. I enjoyed Angel branch the most. Bloomsbury one is fine for coffee, but customer services really depends. A barista with glasses on seems not willing to give out stamp cards or answer questions when a customer asked for it, kind of killed the weekday morning rhythm.

Rude, condescending barista (the guy in the morning). Man, you’re supposed to make people’s day.

Good spot for breakfast and coffee

Best coffee I had in London. Excellent service. Made my day =)

We visited this cafe a while ago and came again today. We both had cortado coffee served in a small glass. The coffee tasted excellent and was very nicely made

OMG a shop and toaster that know the right temperature of a long black!!! Heaven!
