The Gentlemen Baristas London Bridge in Southwark

In the spring of 2024, we embarked on what was meant to be a quick weekend escape to London. After wandering through the lively Borough Market, our journey took an unexpected turn. On our way to continue sightseeing, we stumbled upon a hidden gem: a small, unassuming coffee shop perched right at London Bridge. Little did we know, this chance encounter would become the pinnacle of my trip. What can I say? This wasn’t just ordinary coffee — it was a revelation. The best coffee I’ve ever had, without a doubt. The kind that lingers in your thoughts long after the last sip. And now, London calls to me once again. Yes, for its storied history and its iconic sights, but first and foremost: the coffee at The Gentleman Baristas. I’ve since learned they ship their roasts, so I can attempt to recreate that magic at home. But, let’s be real — as my girlfriend constantly reminds me when I rave about that experience, nothing will ever compare to tasting it right there — in the heart of London. So, Gentleman Baristas at London Bridge; this is not farewell. It’s merely, "Until we meet again."

Leckerer Kaffee, aber das Personal ist Touristen gegenüber sehr herablassend. Ich wollte einen Karamell Latte bestellen, welcher auch auf der Karte steht, da hat mir die Barista empfohlen doch zu Starbucks zu gehen.

Soooo expensive for the tiniest latte, I couldn’t believe how tiny it was for the price they charged. It’s a total rip off. Don’t go here. Also there’s no seating.

Super leckerer Kaffee direkt neben dem Borough Markt. Kann man jedem nur weiterempfehlen! Sehr freundlicher Service

Bar molto accogliente, personale gentile e premuroso, buoni dolci. Ottimo per una sosta pomeridiana. Ci sono tanti bei cappelli inglesi

Popped in here for a wonderful coffee and cinnamon bun..... Very pleasant coffee shop to sit and relax, with good music. The staff were both excellent, friendly and very efficient. Recommended if your heading to the market.

Serendipitous find on our early morning wanders before Borough Market opened. If your raison d’etre is to make a coffee it has to be good. And this small cup of perfection was indeed spectacular. Wonderfully worth the diversion very short diversion to the market outskirts. The small menu looked inviting though we didn’t stay for it. Next time fir sute.

Found this quaint little baristas near borough markets. Great atmosphere. Friendly welcoming staff. Thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for a great hot drink.

I really enjoyed my latte. The prices are very affordable compared to the other coffee joints in London. Chanced upon this place while leaving Borough Market.

As well as this one in Borough Market, they are also now in O2 shopping outlet. Lovely staff. Really very reasonable prices for a captive audience. High quality flat white.

Coffee was amazing and atmosphere was fine just I didn't feel very warm welcome anyway I love the coffee

Nice and cozy coffee bar at the Borough market. We drank coffee and ate Truffle roasted sandwich which was tasty. Highly recommended for a coffee break.

This has been my go to place each lunchtime the past four days. I love the the food and drinks, plenty of tables and great staff, very refreshing!

Really nice coffee shop providing excellent coffee and nibbles. Cool environment and relaxing in a side road off borough market.

On our way from Borough Market we accidentally found this small coffee shop with friendly smiling baristas. The room is so comfortable, not to big and no too small. Is clean and bright. Coffee is great and you can enjoy in front of the shop. There are two comfy benches. They do some sandwiches for small break. You can also buy beans and stuff for prepare your filter coffee at home. Well done!

We discovered this nearly new outlet for 'The Gentlemen Baristas' when wandering away from Borough Market and the normal queue outside another well established coffee shop on the edge of the market. We were overjoyed as we have been great fans of these guys ever since happening on their Union Street shop on the very day it opened. We stopped for a flat white and toasted cheese & tomato sandwich each for breakfast - both were amazing. And we left very contented with a new tote bag plus a bag of beans. It won't be long before this place has queues of its own when the word gets out about their coffee!
