The Gentlemen Baristas Piccadilly in City of London, Westminster

This place has now closed, needs updated on Maps

All the staff are absolutely lovely. Used to go in every weekend and they remembered my order. Unfortunately it is now closed, so we're losing on a great coffee place!

A nice coffee shop a few minutes walk along Piccadilly from Green Park.

Wonderful welcome from a compatriot!

Wonderful place to eat and drink. Service is excellent as well as the coffee.

V good coffee but shame that in 2024 rhey still charge extra for non dairy milk.

No food, but a coffee and a hot chocolate. I questioned something in the chocolate, and was helped so wonderfully by one of the servers. We will definitely use this coffee and food establishment again ! You need to try it

I had such a great experience with the sweet blonde woman from Portugal. She made my drink, and my day, better. please try this spot !

Very good coffee and very good and nice staff! I really enjoyed!

I had a delicious Chai latte with oat milk and found the staff, Edith, Tommy and Miray to be extra friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely go again!

Very nice and pleasant place. We didn't like the very strong coffee and the oat milk they use (we decided to try it even though it wasn't oatly and it changed the flavor of the coffee so much that, as I said, we didn't like it). In short, we have been trying several specialties in London and this was the one we liked the least. The banana bread was very well made.

A nice place, but with sour coffee (with regular milk it was bad … with soy milk it was 🤢), and artificially flavoured almond croissants… it’s pretty hard to recommend. 😔 To the barista — if a shot runs fast from channeling — do not serve it!!! 😓 Need to also make sure the extraction temperature is adequately hot too. Or maybe you’ve dialled in coffee perfectly for a small.. but perhaps the coffee extraction ratio on a large is off.

Good coffee and a decent queue, but quick service 😊👌

It's really nice to have such a nice coffee shop in Piccadilly. I really enjoyed sitting there with a nice latte and a Bakewell tart. The staff member was really nice and friendly. Kept clean. So glad to have found it here.

One of the best flat white I’ve ever tried. The staff were nice also

The best flat white I've had in the UK. Great atmosphere and they take coffee seriously.

Excellent service and top-quality coffee.

I really enjoyed my macchiato at this place! Amazing atmosphere, nice retro ambience playing jazz music. Friendly staff! The coffee was tasty and good quality. Definitely worth the visit for a stop between shopping

It wasn't as I heard about him. And the place is very crowded

This is bloody disappointed. Barista was arrogant, left pour over over 5 mins, asked them to heat my bread but was cold and latte was too hot. Pour is over extraction. No skills barista and unfriendly staffs. Location, interior and concept are awesome so made me more disappointed as well. Sandwiches are nice which they don’t make.

Perfect baristas and coffee -najmudeen

Fancied a coffee a pastry this morning. Safe to say we won’t be returning due to rude staff. The lady taking orders has no customer service skills. We ordered a cappuccino, a bottle of water and two pastries. Another lady came over with an americano. We explained we did not order this. The lady who was serving then shouted over the counter at us ‘I’m confident you ordered an americano’. My fiance politely explained that he did not as he doesn’t like them. She tutted, shook her head and persisted to argue with him. They finally agreed to do him a cappuccino but still put the blame on my fiance. Rude. Shall not be returning due to this!

very good coffee and a lovely lady give us a great service, i hope the correct name is dafne, nice place

Service is too slow. They should have two coffee machines. Waited 15 mins for a take away coffee.

Welcoming staff, great atmosphere!!

Nice coffee shop very friendly and efficient coffee 👍

Good coffeeshop, which also reasonably priced.

Good food, fast service, high price!

The cappuccino was great. The people were very friendly. The 4 star is because they didn’t get money, just cards.

A place with good facilities and excellent quality coffee. I would like to praise the manager Edith, who is very attentive.

Just perfect! Amazing latte and hot chocolate! Accompanied by an almond croissant and a scone, magnificent! Thank you so much !

Coffee was amazing! Edith was very kind and helpful! Congratulations to the team!!!

One of the best speciality coffee in London. Thank you Mohammed for amazing Chemex and service.

I love this coffee shop!!! They have the friendliest staff ever especially Mohammed!!! Edith the manager is so lovely, calm and so so so nice!!!! The barista’s are always smiling, and so quick at making anything you have ordered!!! Best coffee staff in Mayfair!!

Highly recommend if you are a latte fan! Outstanding service.

Afternoon coffee break: coffee latte, iced chai latte, scone and homemade lemonade tested. Everything is very good, served quickly, nice restaurant and quite quiet at this time. I recommend for a relaxing break after walking St James Park and Buckingham Palace.

Bad cappuccino, slow and messy service.

Have removed their previously good sausage brioche and given in to barbarically slaughtered foods. Calling a turkey roll "bacon" is quite hilarious. Walked to Ole & Steen...

One of the best coffees in London, if you are looking for an authentic coffee this is the place.. Najmuldeen will make you the best coffee be sure to ask for him 👌

The place is very nice!! The service good. Love it

Worst iced black Americano I've had, so acidic and bitterly sour. Couldn't drink it, asked to have it made again with not much change! Service was poor, the lady taking orders would just forget the order and had to repeat a simple three items order 3times! Simply not a very warm welcome.

Mohammed and the team provide exceptional coffee with smiles and excellent service 😊

One of the best specialty coffees in London and most importantly the service that they provide is amazing thank you for this amazing place and I really want to think the Algerian guy for his amazing spirit 🙏🙏

The Best Matcha Latte I ever taste in my life ! Bravo !

I've been coming to this coffee shop for several months now. The coffee and food is great, the staff are always friendly and helpful, Mohammed and the rest of the team are very welcoming and know my order! If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out 😊

BOILING HOT COFFEE! worst I’ve ever had. I have been there a few times and there is always long waiting, bad service. They are either understaffed and or extremely disorganised. Today I had the worst experience there. I’ve been told off and shouted at by this barista with curly hair who has also served me a boiling hot coffee that literally BURNED my mouth. Unfortunately I only tried the coffee when I was back in my office so couldn’t complain directly to them. Do yourself a favour and get a nice coffee and good service somewhere else! It’s just terrible in there

I am a regular costumer to this shop and I always see chaos and before. But now the shop is very pleasant and staffs are taking care of customers and I see it is lead by good hands now. I like these coffee and iced matcha latte is my favourite

Great coffee, great space and wonderful staff

Great coffee, and equally great service. Very well located round the corner from Green Park Station.

Very nice coffee with reasonable price, good service, thank you so much to all waiters especially Mohammed

Cute little coffee place, good tea and coffee selection. The chai latte was good, a tad unbalanced with too much milk. The herbal tea was ok.

Great service,Excellent Coffee , friendly staff and especially priah and mohammed and hamza were very helpful and welcoming

staff are friendly and hardworking and the food is really delicious

We had an amazing experience at the place. Adarsh was very helpful and friendly!

Great coffee at a reasonable price. The place is nice, and if you seat in they bring the coffee to you, which is completely unheard of in this kind of chains. So awesome service and good product. Cannot ask for more.

Honestly, it is my favourite independent coffee chain. Just recently, the servic hasn't been really up to scratch like it was when it opened. I noticed during the very busy period that what seemed like a supervisor was on her phone a lot, and the newer looking Baristas struggled to keep up with the demand. It seemed pretty cramped inside, but 90% of the time, the seats are full, so you'd be lucky to get a seat of any kind. Overall, I think compared to opening the attitude to the coffee (as tasty as the make it), it seems less about speciality. That might just be an influx of new faces, but it's a trend I've seen becoming more consistent here. The coffee itself changes by day and it taist amazing each time, which makes the place realy special for the people who love speciality Coffee. If you love your V60s and Moka pot brewing, the beans are amazing. Overall, it's a great place and one of my favourites, I highly recommend buying their beans for home brewing.

Bacon turkey sandwich was not good. Scoones was ok at best. Would expect much better from such a "fine establishment".

Good coffee but wait time can be very long sometimes

Espresso is good. It tastes really good when you walk into the store

Excellent attention!!! Very kind all the employees!!! Specially kind and charming Mrs Hebi , she was very efficient in her job, and very adorable trying to help and support the clients . And the coffee premium, really delicious !!!! An all the rest too

Black Americano tasted and felt like a higher volume espresso as opposed to a dilute watery one. Was even served in a smaller size cup as opposed to a large one. I’m no coffee enthusiast but even I knew this was a quality coffee. Latte was wonderful ; I asked for it extra hot and they kindly attended to it. Excellent coffee. I will definitely be going back.

Dreadful staff, awful coffee, will never return

Great location, clean and friendly.

Najm Al-Din is a wonderful person, thank you

Fantastic Barista. Got a V-60 Rwandan coffee. Taste is fruity and smooth. Great host. The Algerian guy (Najm Eddein) is a coffee barista by instinct.

The Algerian guy made truly excellent iced amricano and he is nice with the customers too…i definitely will come back.

Always try to pop round Gentleman Baristas when in London. Great coffee & super friendly service. Met Nedj this time. Really knowledgeable & you could tell the passion for coffee coming through. Best visit so far. See you next time.

Nice brownie and coffee quality.

Amazing coffee, perfect service especially from the Algerian guy. Highly recommend!

Thank u Najm aldeen for the best coffee👍🏻👍🏻💯

Best barista Najm Aldeen try the chai latte

The Algerian barista Najmudin was very generous and made for us the best coffee in London

Wonderful experience and thanks to Daniel for his amazing service

I guess this on of the unique coffee shop in London. Get in touch with the Algerian guy inside the coffee and he will take care of you.

A creamy coffee, beats the big chains with their sour harsh stuff. Though the cinnamon bun could have had more cinnamon!

Coffee is not once The place is narrow and crowded Prices are expensive

Staff were on point. Excellent coffee and brownie. Lovely relaxed environment without the inflated price (Starbucks ahem). Would definitely come back.

Omar,Adi,Simone ....what a team,AMAZING COFFEE ☕

The coffee here is simply exquisite - rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed. And the baked goods are an absolute delight, with flaky pastries, moist cakes, and delicious cookies. Highly recommend this wonderful cafe!"

I have been coming to GB for the last 3 years. The quality of the coffee is impeccably good and never fails its standard. The sandwiches and cakes are full of flavour. The prices are affordable. As it is located in the centre of the city, it’s a great place unwind.

Gentlemen by name but not by nature. Rude staff who seem very annoyed to be at work at serving coffee. Matcha was small, giant ice cubes = less drink, and tasted incipid. Filter coffee was pretty good actually. Pastries were reasonable. Overall, walk down the road a little farther for a better experience and drinks.

Good cup of coffee. Limited seating, but clearly popular.

I was very surprised by this cafeteria. At first I thought my coffee was burnt, but being so strong helped me enjoy it. It is not a coffee for everyone, it has a lot of body and flavor. It is a great place for people who love coffee. Furthermore, I ordered it decaffeinated and my normal husband, the girl who brought it to the table told us about the curious smells, mine being much sweeter than the other. To finish, they gave a drink to a dog belonging to someone who was waiting in line. A very friendly and professional environment. I saw the bathroom before entering and it was crazy, but they came in for a second and cleaned it like a hurricane. Being such a busy place, it didn't dampen my experience. When I return to London, I would like to return to this cafe.

Pop in and have a good time for coffee in a hot day .

Wonderful coffee shop and great service.

A basic coffee bar with good coffee. Usually feature a long queue for the single toilet of the establishment.

Cuter from the outside… walked in and had high hopes but after waiting 10 min for 2 oat milk mochas, it wasn’t busy, we were extremely disappointed. Coffee was cold and , in my opinion, not very tasty. I’m not picky with coffee so I think it’s difficult to mess up but cold coffee is never good unless served on ice.

Great coffee shop. Fast service. Brownie was amazing. Good atmosphere. Everything you want from a coffee shop.

Coffee is really nasty. I drink coffee every week somewhere, but this is really not good coffee. Never go back.

Good location, lousy service today... 10mins waiting for hot milk to accompany my friend's tea, my latte was lukewarm... Just one tatty toilet, no soap to dispenser... Wouldn't go back...

Busy specialty coffee shop in London. That didn’t affect the quality of the coffee though! I had ordered a long black. Barista put in milk when I only asked for it black. They remade the drink with no fuss. Overall, great experience

Nice coffee shop with limited seating. Service is good. Toilets were untidy but it’s a busy location.

Very cool atmosphere. Unisex bathrooms in poor condition. And the coffee was very bad for my taste, totally bitter. I ordered a mocha coffee and they still put 3 sachets of sweetener in there, no way to drink it.

They don't have fresh croissants even though I saw them this morning

Despite the great location and nice interior design, Coffee beans are too sour and bitter, we didn't like the coffee ☕

8 people working and took 10 mins for a coffee

A very good place to have a hot chocolate or a coffee on a cold day, perhaps to read a book. Cozy and pleasant atmosphere, easily accessible.

delicious food, amazing service but food is not enough for me 😓 the place is knida small for big families

Terrible coffee, very slow service and indecent toilet. Very expensive. To be carefully avoided

First two cups of coffee were luke warm. Asked for replacements and these were not properly hot. Disappointing experience, staff should know how to make a decent cup of coffee.
