The Borough Barista in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Stopped for a quick snack and drink on a busy weekday. Delicious but small menu- couple of sandwich choices, a few cakes and smoothies. Such a simple concept but worked very well. Chicken and avocado roll was delicious ( brioche bun) and excellent smoothie. Very friendly service and competitive price for central London. Clean loos too! Will return.

Avoid this place if you can. The coffee is overpriced and they charge you even more if you want alternative milk. The food options are not good either. The service is also not good as they don’t care about customers. There are much better coffee places in the area. My advice is for you to avoid this place and go somewhere else in the area

Pequeñas cafeterías justo al lado de Edgware Road: buenos cafés (espresso fuerte y capuchino perfecto), buenas galletas y fabulosos brownies de rocky road, excelente servicio, mesas al aire libre. Mucho mejor que la mayoría de las cadenas de café estandarizadas y aburridas. Volveré.

Pour boire un coup sans se ruiner à côté d'Hyde Park. Café instagrammable ! To have an instagrammable drink not to expensive near to Hyde Park !

un entorno muy pintoresco y capuchino decente a buen precio. Perfecto para una parada rápida antes del teatro.

Posto carino in zona Marble Arch, caffè imbevibile purtroppo aveva un pessimo retrogusto.proprio non ci siamo

We popped in this morning for a couple of coffees and a bite to eat. We were very happy we came here instead of a chain. Coffee and food was great 👍🏻 We also tried a fresh orange juice, boy was that good x Great service and can’t wait to return here next time x

Posto molto carino, dove fanno un caffè accettabile (indispensabile per noi italiani) e con una buona scelta di cibi. Al piano di sotto vi è una saletta con divani e tavoli e con una piccola libreria che consente di leggere qualche pagina rilassandosi e sorseggiando un buon the o caffè. Consigliato!

We made a long detour to finally try out this coffee shop on our latest London expedition - it’s been on our list for quite a while. The flat whites were very good although the roast was slightly darker than to our taste. Still I’d be very happy to return.

I stumbled on this place recently when I was tired and needed the snack . Perfectly helpful staff and a great place to take a break - the relaxing eats and a good cup of coffee was I needed to revive . Not too expensive andcentral location to have easy access .

I’ve stumbled across this place recently and now it’s my go to coffee house in the area. Cheerful staff and service. Real feel good place! Highly recommend

Popped into The Borough Barista by chance on a cold Saturday afternoon. The staff were so friendly and the coffee excellent! Best cappuccino in London! Thank you Borough Barista!

Poor quality food offering and shabby interior, in need of renovation Much better off going to Daisy Green, Workshop, Monocle, Boxcar or one of the many other top coffee shops nearby Only food option is pre-made sandwiches, even at the weekend - not good

We found this place as it had good reviews . We are all vegetarians and ordered a meat free meal . However we were given chicken . When we told the guy behind the bar he tried to tell us we had ordered meat ! Why would we ?! In the end he got us 2 new sandwiches- not 3 . No apology . In fact all he said was “whatever “ . The waitress was professional but the other guy treated us so badly and rudely !

I was in desperate need of a coffee and by accident stumbled into this coffee shop. Very nice and service minded staff and the best cappuccino ever in London really made my day, thank you!

Went here with 2 friends for coffee on a Saturday morning when Oxford Street was very busy. The coffee was excellent and the cakes looked good too but we resisted the temptation. It was very quiet and we did not feel we had to move on so chatted over a single coffee each for well over an hour. Service was helpful and friendly. I should think the atmosphere might be different during the week. All in all a great find.

Delicious coffee with personal service in a buzzy but relaxed atmosphere. Perfect alternative to the high street chains

I stopped at The Borough Barista when in Marble Arch and had a latte and a blueberry muffin. Both were very good as was the service and the seating area. I would have liked a wider choice of cakes / pastries to choose from as the selection available was rather basic. Prices were average £3.20 for my latte and £3.00 for the muffin. There is Free Internet (the password is barista10 ) which worked perfectly. All in all a nice coffee shop and a good place for a pit stop when in the Marble Arch area of London.

This place did good coffee in pleasant surroundings and a cut above many other chain coffee houses around. Worth a visit.

Just up from Hyde Park, we had cause to visit this terrific little coffee place twice in the last couple of weeks and it’s a gem. Imaginative sandwiches (love that chicken schnitzel one), scrumptious cakes and really, really top drawer coffee. Charming staff too. Superb.

used to work in an office hear here, and it was our 'go to' coffee shop for trips out. Consistently good coffee, well made. Drinking in is ok - the cellar downstairs is a bit miserable, and the upstairs is small (so everyone can hear...

Flat white perfect for me. Strong and just the right amount to milk. Struggle to make do with the offerings in the big chains now!

Whilst the coffee was enjoyable, I didn't find it as good as some other chains when it came to the overall experience. Was not impressed by the service. Needs to up its game to compete.

From the prices you’d think this is one of London’s great coffee shops; it isn’t. Coffee lacks any real wow factor and the staff are not that friendly. Would rather go to one of the big chains than here.

Coffee is good but the atmosphere is absolutely dead. On a sunny day the seating outside gets a good amount of sun but other than that nothing really special.

We stayed in the Marylebone area during a recent trip to London and were thrilled to find a high quality coffee shop so far from home. As part of our daily morning ritual we mostly stuck to Macchiatos and Americanos, both of which were excellent....

The coffee is very good and the barista does excel in latte art. I had 2 cups, one of my guests had 3 and this alone is testimony to the excellent, excellent coffee. The staff appear very friendly. The price for a cappuccino is high...

I have lost count of the visits here but they deserve praise for great coffee, drinks and light meals at a reasonable price in this area. A real gem.

The coffee is one of the better quality ones in the area - you would need to walk to Seven Dials or Chancery Lane to get something better. It is an average price for the area - around £2.90 for a regular. The venue itself...

What a great little corner coffee shop. This is the type of place where you go every morning and they know your order. Love it.

The staff are awesome and the coffee is perfect! Always find a table inside and outside and I'd suggest also trying the ham and cheese croissants

Like the coffee here but have never eaten here. Feels a bit more artisanal than the other chains in the area. This is not a coffee shop to have a business meeting or to read a book. It's fairly small and cramped.

I order coffee anytime I go out for breakfast, brunch, or lunch, and I've never had a better prepared or more delicious latte than the one I had at the Piccadilly branch of TheBB. The best part was, I had just wandered in to possibly...

I take coffee seriously - always buying fresh beans and grinding on demand And that's what you get here Professional barista ,great blend ,properly pulled shots - just a class above the ubiquitous coffee chains on every high st Everyone ive recommended here has come...

Good expresso. Also had a healthy juice. Very tasty! Lovely atmosphere and settings. The staff are attentive and helpful. Thanks guys! Ready for the meeting now

Visited here with my cousin. We both had a salmon and egg roll and had juices. My cousin had a coffee. It was pretty expensive, ie it was £22 in total. However. It's in a really posh bit of London so I didnt expect otherwise....

I usually go to this caffe because it's close to the studio Of a professional I need to go twice a month. Today as soon I stepped in the shop none said hallo, I had to ask to be served (....) No eye contact, no...

Had a great flat white from this friendly little corner coffee shop. They do juice and pastries too. Not huge upstairs but I believe there's downstairs basement seating too.

A quick cup of coffee and a bit of cake before a meeting, and I'd like to find an excuse to return soon. The place is so welcoming, the staff friendly, and the coffee delicious. My flat white was the best I have had, and...

I went in here at lunch time with a friend and we ordered iced coffees. Its very nice inside and the cakes look great, a nice place to sit and sup on your favourite coffee. However I only add that a hot regular latte is...

If you want good coffee in a cozy environment .. this is the perfect place to go near Oxford Street in London. Coffee is really, really good.

I quite like this place. The coffee is good and it's quite nice to just chill here in my lunch break.

I found them in my desperate attempts to have good coffee in London. Read the reviews on Yelp and they did not disappoint. Great coffee. Professional baristas and nice girls as such.

Consistently great coffee and friendly people. Cosy atmosphere with free wifi so great if you want to work/study. Good mix of business men in suits and friends/couples. The people are so lovely, once my debit card wasn't working, and a friend was able to buy...

Nice location attracting office staff and residents alike. Honestly, I was a bit worried when Gail's decided to open a few shops down the road thinking it might drive it out of business. The Borough Barista proved that with good service and excellent coffees you...

The coffee served here is very good and the service very friendly. There are a number of tasty snacks and bites to eat. It is not cheap but the quality is high- and well worth it!

BB strikes the perfect balance between somewhere to grab a great coffee and somewhere to sit all day drinking great coffee. Good service, great pastries. Win!

This is a great place to grab a coffee and snack in the morning. It wasn't crowded both days I went and the service was very fast and friendly. And my latte was just right.

Great little coffee shop near Marble Arch, Oxford Street and Hyde Park. Very good coffee and food. Would highly recommend!

This small intimate space also has seating downstairs so don't be put off if all the tables are taken. We enjoyed two occasions of sampling their coffee and snacks and will certainly return when next in the area. Our coffees and cuppacinos were excellent as...

If you're not the type of person who thinks Starbucks is the best coffee in the world, then you know what coffee is. This place is good value for the money. Their cups could be larger, but they taste good. Bought their roast as well,...

Replacing the vastly superior Bonsoy milk with the cheaper and inferior Alpro, while still having the audacity to charge 50p more for a soya coffee, has done it for me. Cheap cost cutting, or greedy profit enhancing measures are usually the start of a long...

I have always loved the coffee at The Borough Barista. I think it's probably one of the best in London. I am disappointed that recently they have decided to cut costs, but not prices on soya milk coffee. They are now using only the cheaper...

Service is very good compared to other coffee shops in the area, attentive and quick. Coffees are strong.

Great coffee, although premium London prices. Snacks/ sweet treats pretty good too. The barista is great, although a couple of times possibly new service staff mixed up and missed things from the orders.

This place is a great little spot to grab a white flat and a quick cake or sandwich before you start your day. I recommend this place to those passing through vs. going to a Nero cafe. With tables out front and inside, you will...

We came here for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. There is a small selection of sandwiches, but they were delicious! I had the chicken and avocado in a focaccia roll, it was lovely. Inside is quite cramped, but we sat outside and it was a...

The milling Australians and Kiwis are the giveaway - this place does seriously good coffee. Nice selection of good food too. At the outlet near Piccadilly Circus there's also plenty of seating downstairs.

I discovered this place by accident while waiting for meeting last week and can honestly say it has a charm and character all of its own. As independent coffee shops go it is quite hard to create an atmosphere that conjures up that feeling of...

Nice atmosphere, delicious coffee, pastries and friendly Barista with a big welcoming smuke) P.S. Ice mocha is worth a try

Espresso was beautifully rich, full bodied with a kick, but no unpleasant bitterness. Flat white was similarly strong, well textured with that subtle caramel sweetness most baristas can't quite find in the milk. A refreshing change from the watery crap all too common amongst London...

Popped in for a coffee. Tried to pay with contactless. The card reader wasn't working. The guy behind the counter took the opportunity to be very rude and patronising to me. When the reader still didn't work, he didn't even apologise. Very simple rule about...

Visited for a coffee as we had noticed this coffee shop before but never visited. Extremely small and cramped with uncomfortable seating and considering how small this coffee shop is the service was very slow and unapologetic. Added to that they claim they had run...

Great proper coffee near Edgware/Marleybone/Hyde Park area. Too bad they only offer their house blend. Seating is uncomfortable. Staff are friendly.

This is a great little cafe, forget the chains, they serve real coffee in this place. I always treat myself after visiting the dentist. They do a good selection of simple food too. Wifi

actually very good coffee for London. Would have given 5 but my coffee wasn't as hot as I like it.... The pleasure was over all too quick. So good I fact I went back ..... I'm pleased also by the simple food options for breakfast...

This is just the cutest everyday lunch place, with a friendly staff, moderate prices and great sandwiches (go for the new york deli sandwich) :)

Really good coffee - nice to have a true independent coffee house still serving customers. Staff always helpful and very good at remembering everyones nuances.

I had breakfast here in two occasions. The staff were friendly despite being busy. Blueberry muffins were great! Me and my wife had cappuccinos and my daughter loved the special milk and chocolate. Close to Marble Arch subway.

These people know how to make coffee, buzzing environment with lots of people coming in for a coffee whilst on the go. I also had a Ham and cheese Baguette which was fresh and tasty. Also window seating for people by themselves or enjoy people...

I confess this is just a coffee shop, so there is not much to review, but I had a very good skinny mocha - much tastier than chains and the service was polite. It wasn't very quick, but it is only a small shop!

I visited this place twice and won't return. The main reason is its more expensive than pretty which is near by, the coffee is below the high quality of pretty and the staff aren't as friendly and they should be. Why would u go somewhere...

After spending 2 weeks in the north of England, finding a brilliant coffee was a godsend. Staff were very friendly, it's a small yet very inviting cafe with excellent coffee. I was grateful for it's existence!

We have enjoyed this place for a while, as we live local and serving girls are very nice. Though, unfortunately, we (including a lot of our friends who agreed with us)will never come there anymore due to an incident occured today: we were drinking coffee...

Was there a few times, but will never come back. Coffee is alright, but manager/owner was rude to me for no reason

I popped in on my way back home for a coffee and a bite to eat. This place looked nice from the outside. I'm very glad I discovered it - possibly the best espresso I've had and a cinnamon cake second only to my mother-in-law's...

Really poor service, manager was quite rude, and coffee quality was poor- very expensive too. avoid like the plague.

I was so happy to find this coffee cafe in my neighborhood. It is as good as it gets, and I can say the brew here is as good as those I have had in NYC, Seattle etc, etc....I am addicted to their lattes. I...

A great tasty coffee, for a good price given the quality. We go there almost every day, also because of the legit ANZAC bikies regularly available. My Oz colleague from Melbourne lives by his soya cap. As an Italian, I am impressed by their short...

Came across this place by chance, popped in for breakfast. Really good service, the girl was super friendly and despite being busy the staff kept their cool and gave good service. Coffee took a little while to come but taking into account the number of...

Lovely staff and excellent coffee. Been twice and staff friendly and helpful. Great coffee. Brought 2 Aussie colleagues fresh of the QF1 from Sydney. They loved it and could not believe it

The Borough Barista, confusingly (for me) nowhere near London’s Borough Market, is actually at the western end of London’s West End, not far from Marble Arch, It’s fairly unassuming at first glance, but is lovely inside, an oasis of calm and excellent coffee in an...

A lot of the coffee shops in London come across as a bit pretentious, but I found the Borough Barista to keep a 'local' feel whilst serving a better coffee than many. Service was pretty average but the relaxed vibe meant that I wan't too...

I think the coffee here is very good. I normally go for the flat white or the piccolo and they are usually crisp and flavoursome. The staff are very knowledgable and set high standards for the quality of coffee. I think the food is good...

I'm from Australia and had a real struggle finding a decent coffee shop near my hotel at Marble Arch. Coffee is great, loved the interior plus staff was very friendly and helpful. Thank you!

Weak, small, overpriced drinks. Extra 50p for take away cup having in. Got a bad vibe from the place so won't go there again.

I eat at this chain regularly and it's good busy and fun house red is lovely perfectly placed for the market

Been here a few times for meetings. Was in there today and there and they got the order wrong and then tried to make out it was my fault. Think it may have been the manager / owner I dealt with. Got a bad vibe...

Possibly the best coffee in London. I always stay at the Hyatt Portman square just a few blocks away. There's a laid back elegant atmosphere here, with the wooden floors and polished country kitchen feel. The staff is warm & friendly (and good looking). Two...

It has been gratifying to see this tiny shop flourish, an affirmation that high standards and earnest effort are still rewarded by loyal and growing patronage. The coffee is robust and the baristas, unlike those at other places we could name, honor the distinction between...

Good coffee for London, not my first choice of bean and perhaps a fraction under-extracted but very drinkable and it would have been a miracle in London even 5 years ago

This is a very small place but you can sit down at a window bench or one of a few small tables . There is only a small selection of food. A few different sandwiches, filled croissants, slices and cakes. All of this food is...

This without a doubt the best coffee store in west London. Been here many times on my way to work. They remember my name and the coffee I drink. Worth the extra wait for their coffee.

I thought I would try somewhere different to the normal Pret / Eat / Costa......and this place looks the part.....independent, stylish and cool looking.....but that was a mistake. Small flat white - £2.40.....warm (ie not hot) and average. Pain au chocolat - completely stale (undoubtedly...

Staff were very friendly... Lovely New Zealand waitress and Australian . Food looked great but only had a coffee and a lovely chat with the staff. Shop was a little disorganized looking but the great coffee, location and service made up for it.

Sad to read that review, love this place. Cues part and parcel of London's best coffee houses. I'll wait anyday for the Spanish National Barista champion to make my piccolo anyday (**blush**)! Basement coffee bar reserved for Borough's Barista Club. A must on anyone's coffee...

This could be a great cafe as its superb and quiet location just off Marble Arch. Unfortunately the service is extremely poor. Even though I had paid for a pastry at the counter the waitress wouldn't believe and gave me a disbelieving stare. They are...
