The Espresso Lounge in Dacorum

Very friendly place! Great coffee, definitely go for pecan pie 🍰

Lovely peacan cake and freshly squeezed juice. My colleague said his mocha was better than the one he had at Costa. We had to go to Costa because it closed at 4pm. Personally i think it should stay open until 5pm. Young staff were very upbeat and helpful I couldn't get a paper vat receipt which was a bit tricky when it's a business meeting. (Perhaps not the.market they are going for)

Amazing coffee and cakes. Very friendly staff and owner. Will definitely be back soon

Very friendly staff. Nice vibe. Best coffee in town. Recommend chicken wrap and New York Bagel.

Been going here for years and it has never disappointed me! A must stop for coffee geeks 👌

Love getting to visit the espresso lounge on a Sunday morning after a walk, perfect Sunday

No pot of tea ,flat white was what I would say was a little pot not impressed.

wonderful new premises and as always great coffee and a great welcome - nice range of tempting pastries and sandwiches - great service - don't miss it

Good coffee and bagel and lovely people

Visited today with my partner. The gentleman serving us offered fantastic customer service. After asking if they offered iced mochas they gave us great alternatives. Best iced latte I’ve had around and my partner tried the Affogato. Although he preferred mine it was nice to try something different! Would definitely return.

Coffee and music was decent, food better elsewhere. Dissatisfied they don't allow to plug in to work so won't be going back as other places near by do. Edit: Nice salty response from the owner, which is even more disappointing. Perhaps they're having a bad day as you'd like to think this isn't how they'd normally speak to people when they disagree with their opinion...

Lovely friendly atmosphere, the mocha was awesome. As you can see from the photo, it was wiped out super fast. We will definitely be back!

Fabulous coffee and pastries as always!

Best coffee and service in the UK! Always friendly and good atmosphere with lots of customers

Very good coffee ☕️. Staff friendly

Luke warm coffee ☕️ what’s going on with these places ?

Excellent coffee and tray bakes. Service fast and efficient

Great service. I would go again. Good coffee, not Starbucks... Which is always a bonus.

In my day this was Barclays Bank. Now it's a coffee bar with a wide selection of attractive cakes. They could do with more seating but it's a friendly place place with good coffee.

Very pleasant half hour coffee and snack stop with efficient polite staff and free WiFi

Love it. Best oat cappuccino ever. Yummy slices and colourful savouries.

First time at Espresso Lounge and I absolutely loved it! I had a hot chocolate and a chocolate praline cake! My friend loves the coffee here too.

I’ve been to espresso lounge a couple of times to do some work. Such a good place, the staff were so friendly and the coffee and food has consistently been amazing. If you bring a laptop, make sure you buy a couple of drinks and snacks!!

Had a nice coffee and chat to the girls in there.

Very friendly staff delicious food

Perfect place on the High Street of Tring to have a relaxing coffee, and see the world go by. Has about 5 two seaters table to sit outside and for 4 people to sit near the glass overlooking high street. Good collection of tea, coffee and cold drinks in a clean place.

Just had the best banana milkshake ever, super tasty with lots of ice cream .. amazing.. wonderful and happy staff who made me feel very welcome, will certainly visit again.. a must place to visit ✅

Friendly staff. Great coffee. Absolutely fantastic chocolate brownie.

Coffee and cake both very nice.

Not bad but a lack of cutlery and napkins.

Lovely location on Tring High Street, small but attractive seating area and great coffee. A tasty selection of cakes as well. The food looked good but didn't try any today, will be back to sample another time!

Exquisite coffee, gorgeous cakes and very polite staff!

Highly recommend The Espresso Lounge for the best coffee when visiting Tring. The atmosphere was fantastic, very friendly staff. Had some great banter with the Barista and coffee was exactly as ordered. Definitely come back again.

Whenever I visit from Australia, I hunt out this amazing place. Best coffee in Tring and London for that matter. Amazing salads and cakes, friendly place. The owners are lovely. A must visit

Wonderful and warm greeting at the expresso lounges new home. Nicely styled, great for people watching. Clean and comfortable. Staff attentive and owner greets everyone as they come in. Food was scrumptious and best hot chocolate I’ve had for a while. If you are in the area then don’t miss this wonderful lounge. Will definitely be back.

Me and my mum stopped here in-between car shopping and it was a perfect treat to keep us going. Exceptional service from the owner, he’s connected to every customer that arrives never forgets a name. We had a breakfast bagel, cappuccino & shortbread all 10/10 would definitely recommend if you’re in the Tring are

Great coffee (London quality) and cakes, which a small selection of savoury foods. Seating outside and near he counter is nice, with the back lacking atmosphere somewhat but offering space for larger groups

We had breakfast for 2 times. Stylish interior, good food and friendly staff. Would come back again.

It was a little too noisy for conversation in the area by the counter, but the much larger space at the back was much more peaceful. Coffee was excellent, well presented and quick to arrive. I didn't eat, hence no marks for food.

The best coffee we have ever had and the pain au chocolat and almond croissant was amazing too. Wish we lived closer

One of the best coffees I've ever had👌🏻

We had coffee in this establishment on a recent visit to Tring. The coffee and flapjack were really nice. However, two things were disappointing. My wife likes her coffee very weak (weaker than 1 shot) and asked for some extra hot water (the drinks were already “large”). On looking at the bill total there was a charge of £1-50 for the water. We cancelled the hot water. In all the places we have been, whilst out and around, we have NEVER been changed for a bit of extra hot water. The second point was trying to find the toilets - absolutely no signage, considering the toilets were through another seated area at the back and up some stairs (not easy to find without asking). Interestingly, the other coffee houses were quite full, but this one (which was just across the road) was almost empty (on a sunny Saturday at 11:00 am!).

Food was nice, coffee wasn't the best but id give it another try at some point.

Great place for coffee and snacks. Just needs better decor and atmosphere

Awesome cakes and coffee, highly recommended. Friendly owner as well

Staff were really lovely and talkative. The bakery was nice and the hot chocolate was nice! Defo will come back for the good vibes and energy. Place is bigger than you expect with more seating round the back.

Very cute little cafe, great atmosphere, quiet and relaxing. The staff are extremely friendly and put a smile on your face, very welcoming. I had a salted brownie which was amazing and would definitely recommend it, plus a hot chocolate with oat milk. Plenty of seating as there are extra tables out the back. Recommend a visit here!

Popped on for breakfast just before 10 on Sunday. Some initial confusion over if they were serving porridge and granola options, they were. Bit on the pricy side but good coffee. The granola was very good, porridge so, so.

Very busy. Good coffee, food and nice staff 😋.

Excellent coffee. Friendly staff.

Great service, nice seating, fabulous coffee. Managed to resist the naughtiest!!

We popped in for a hot drink on a Saturday afternoon. We managed to find a free table and ordered drinks to stay in. They have a good selection of coffees and cakes. I had fancied a chai latte, which I was surprised to find they didn't offer, but I enjoyed my white hot chocolate very much nonetheless. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be the cleanliness of the table. It obviously hadn't been wiped down since the last customers left. But it was rather busy so I can understand how it had been missed. It certainly wouldn't put me off returning, the drinks were very nice, and I have no doubt a member of staff would have cleaned the table if we'd asked. There is seating at the front of the store at street level then more tables in the back which is down one step. The toilets are at the very back of the café up several steps.

Coffee was top notch. Bought beans for home too, it was that good. Friendly service. Would highly recommend

Lovely coffee shop. Nicely styled, friendly team, great coffee and good food.

Exceptional coffee! We ordered cappuccino & decaf latte to takeaway. It was the best coffee we had for a long while. It is very clean, great sweet selection (around 4 Gluten free cakes too) and quick service.

Trendy, great quality coffee in a modern and comfortable café. Plenty of seating. Good array of cakes and brownies, of which we had salted white choc brownie and it was the best I've had for years!!

Lovely find . Great coffee and delicious cakes

Lovely to see this business, which started as a coffee van in a lay-by on the A41, blossoming.

What an absolute delight. The coffee is exceptional (super smooth), I had a New Yorker bagel with a side of beetroot, butternut and lentil salad, followed later by the apricot and almond cake. No faults anywhere. I took home the chocolate Cruffin and again very good. I am definitely going back next time I am in Tring

Great to have a dog friendly cafe up this end of town. Nice, friendly staff too and the best almond croissants in town!

Popped into the Espresso lounge for a quick coffee while passing through Tring. Unfortunately, the machine coffee was of a very poor quality. We ordered 2 black americanos which had a burnt, dull flavor and all the signs of over being extracted. The barista was probably just having a bad day, but still, I can't recommend this place for coffee lovers! 😞

Very good coffee and a lovely avocado and bacon bagel.

Great coffee and food. Shame that there is no baby changing facilities. Please add a changing table if you want more new mum customers.

Best Espresso Martini in Tring! ;)

What a lovely cafe in the High Street, Tring. We’re cycling and had to have the regulation Coffee and Cake. Morello Cherry Blondie and Carrot & Toasted Pecan Cakes. Delicious. 🥰

Great customer service, incredible products and a warm atmosphere. Never dissapoints. Highly recommended.

So glad we found this little shop in the high street. Very nice friendly service, cake and hot drinks were delicious!! Will be back this month for another afternoon date ❤️ we had the banana loaf and hot chocolate 🤤

Went here on a friends recommendation and didn’t disappoint. Probably the best espresso I’ve ever had in my life… Went in and the guy serving us was lovely, ended up buying a croissant muffin thing which was delicious. Be careful the guy there knows how to upsell, nearly walked out with my own coffee machine! Highly recommend and will be going back next time I’m in the area.

Great espresso, beautiful looking treats, passionate friendly service ✅✅

A rare example of a British café that knows how to make a proper long black

The old bald guy was fab until he took the mickey out of my bike! Excellent coffee and lovely toasties! Recommend the mozzarella & pesto one! 😋😋😋😋😋

Have been here before and the coffee and cake was excellent and this visit was as good, simply excellent coffee and tried the sausage burger, well we both had one, really lovely and tasty, great friendly service. We visit Tring more often now as we love the bread in Culture bakers, so will be back next time we are in town. Many thanks to the young lady that served us.

Dropped in to try out their coffee. They're not stupid. The standard blend is a medium dark roast, suitable to the Costa lovers. Not to my taste but it will be for the majority. ...but, they also have a single origin lighter roast on and I expect there's always a lighter roast on for nerds like me. The Columbian they had at the time, like the blend roasted by The Espresso Lounge and not bought in, was fantastic. Well balanced acidity. Poured quite long it worked well both as an espresso and flat white. I tried the blend on the way out. It was well done. Not my style of coffee but you can tell it's been prepared and extracted well. A great coffee shop, likely one of the very best outside of city life. Another note. The kitchen seemed to be run with efficiency Ramsay's Kitchen Knightmares would be happy with. Bravo!

Came up from Cornwall (after just over 2 years lockdown) to see friends. Couldn't wait to go back for something to eat (and the girls had coffee). So glad it's not just going but booming!! Fantastic .

Brilliant coffee shop. Iced americano was perfect and so were the snacks! Lovely hospitality. Looking forward to coming back :)

Gr8. Altough the Coffee was different to what I had the last time I visited. Not quite as nice as a little bitter to taste for my prefernce

Best coffee I've ever tasted. Decent cinnamon bun too.

I love a chai Latte but this is unmatched at the espresso lounge, also enjoyed a brownie and ‘Cuffin’ the best mix between a cake and muffin ever, great value for money, the friendliest of staff, I’ll be back whenever I fancy a coffee and a chat 💬

Staff were pleasant. However, the environment was claustrophobic and the coffee was worse than average. I would recommend for working but not for a good coffee.

Friendly welcome and great coffee. Perfect.

What a lovely quaint coffee shop plus! I think possibly the best coffee we have ever tasted it was stunning. The owners and staff were lovely too really nice to exchange banter with. The food is delicious very flavoursome too. We even brought a coffee maker so now our coffee is nearly as good as yours! But not quite. Very delicious though brill idea i can feel an addiction coming on! Have recommended to friends incase ever in the tring area. If you are do not hesitate to pop in you will not be disappointed. It does live up to the superb reviews and here is 1 more!!

Top quality flat white. Friendly, win win!

Hands down the best coffee shop around

First time visit and a great experience. It gets very busy so ring ahead. Greeted well by lovely staff. A qwerky menu with great food and produce. Breakfast was exceptional with great coffee. The cakes were amazing!! Definitely looking forward to the next visit!!

Lovely little coffee shop. Friendly staff and owners greeted us on arrival and gave us recommendations, good coffee and a tasty breakfast roll. Recommended.

Great coffee, friendly service with a delicious selection of cakes etc. A lovely independent coffee shop - we'll definitely be back

Great little cafe in Tring, an easy and worthwhile detour off the A41. Plenty of parking in the car park next door. Great coffee - a place that takes its coffee seriously - and great breakfast. Scrambled eggs on sourdough toast are up there in the collective breakfast memory.

I have no problem paying for good coffee but I object too being ripped off, over a £1.00 a cup supplement for having soya milk in my coffee. Two small coffees then became over £8.00!!

Amazing food and the coffee is how proper coffee should be done.

You don't have to be a professional coffee taster to know when you are drinking a TEL coffee, it's just so much better. Add good quality food cooked well and friendly service and what's not to love. Definitely revived us after the drive from Lincolnshire

These guys know about coffee, great artisan coffee. A real gem. The team are friendly and knowledgeable and show artistry in the way they make coffee. Delicious 😋

Good coffee, but cakes a little expensive

Staff were really friendly and welcoming … A great little find. There were plenty of food options whether you’re veggie, vegan or a meat eater, from great breakfasts, lunches, cakes and so much more. A clean and inviting coffee lounge, we really enjoined eating and being in this place and would definitely recommend it. 10/10 😊👍

Went for some breakfast, really friendly service. Had a breakfast bap and the avo on sourdough, both lovely. My cortado was great but the almond milk cappuccino not so… more a latte. Wouldn’t stop me from going again though.

I had an amazing experience, due to their Faema machine and expert barista. Service was exemplary, and I was made to feel at home.

Always a special welcome when I pop in. Such great coffee, I buy the beans from them to take home. I can't find a better quality coffee. Superb. Thank you.

Absolutely excellent spot with terrific staff and a tremendous selection of coffee and food. Best in Tring!

Always top notch coffee and the food is amazing.

Definitely the place to go to for Coffee in Tring. Really excellent. Sandwiches and cakes good too but the coffee is really good.

Fabulous coffee!! Great service and thankfully still able to use my reusable cup. Thoroughly recommend. Great cakes too : )
