The Wren Cafe in City of London, Westminster

Good place to do work and quiet environment with friendly staff. Love the vibes from this place , would highly recommend.

Actually a nice idea, but why coffee from a paper cup?

Stopped for a coffee with my family who was in town for the weekend. Really chilled atmosphere. Good and friendly service from the polish barista. Good coffee! Toilets available and really well kept and clean.

Great atmospheric place and a very nice Polish waiter

It's a perfect place to take a break and spend some time reading a book inside a church. Really a hidden place, large & quiet indoor atmosphere . You can enjoy outdoor seating also with a cup of coffee and cake , probably a good place for a quick work meeting . Staffs are very friendly.

Beautiful place to read, study or work for few hours with a tea or a juice

This place is really cute and has a soothing ambiance. I went with friends for a coffee date but many were there to work or study. The church that the café is in is truly beautiful and the location is perfect. 10/10 would recommend.

Great place to work on your laptop

Great coffee place in the church. Excellent coffee, great wifi and not too loud for a conversation.

This church/cafe is an unusual hidden spot in the city. Coffee and snacks may not be of a high grade, in my opinion, but it's beyond the point. It's a perfect getaway spot to take a break and spend some time reading a book.

Hidden gem, especially in sunny days

The best lemon cake I ever had, delicious tea and the old church is beautiful!

What a stunning place to stop for a coffee. Can’t believe I didn’t know about this after 10 years in London.

The best coffee place in the area - good coffee, pastries and porridges, plenty of seating, and a lovely atmosphere.

I only tried the coffee, and it was good—smooth and well-made. The space is set in an old church, which gives it a cool and distinctive vibe. There are plenty of plugs available around the edge and on two social work benches on the far side making it a great coffee stop to get some work done.

This quaint café inside a church is a true hidden gem! The atmosphere is peaceful and unique, making it the perfect spot to relax. A special shoutout to Robyn, who was incredibly friendly, patient, and helpful—she truly went above and beyond to make our day even better. Such a lovely experience with great service in a one-of-a-kind setting. Highly recommend checking it out!

Unique spot for a coffee, with an airy and spacious seating area in a church (and an outside seating area apparently - I didn't fancy it in November...). Massive pastries and a standard coffee menu, with porridge pots and chocolate bars also available, as well as cold soft drinks. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is chilled, with plenty of space for people to work or socialise. Worth noting that coffees are served in takeaway cups, which some people won't appreciate, but overall a really lovely place to pause. Also this crazy toilet cubicle (pictured)

Good atmosphere. Food and drinks taste good too.

Coffee was ok, not many choices of milk, cool venue.

Great space to work! Beautiful and airy, rare to find in London

The most creamy soy cappuccino I have had! The inside of the church is beautiful a lovely place to sit at any time. ❤️😄😍

What a brilliant find for city based working, small meetings. Massive space. Batch brew coffee! Plugs and tables available. Only on weekdays. They are dog friendly and allow you to bring food in from outside when they don't have their food days. Smart use of space from the church!

I love this cafe. Really nice coffee in a church. Such a great spot to escape London, sit and enjoy a book and a coffee. Highly recommended.

Feel bad giving this as it’s a nice looking place in a beautiful historic building and they have the awesome caravan coffee here and even the vibe is nice. But it’s only single use disposable cups and that’s a deal breaker these days. There are also lots of leaflets about Jesus, but it is a church so I suppose that’s fair

Hidden gem, that needs to stay hidden. If you want somewhere to sit and read a book in peace and just escape London for 20 minutes, this is the place to go. With great chocolate and a good selection of pastries, snacks, and the like. It was a joy to visit. The coffee shop is in a church, and this gives the entire place a peaceful atmosphere. One of our favourite places to visit while in London and I wish we visited it sooner!

Great place for a coffee, the coffee here is great and the staff are very warm and welcoming .

Lovely peaceful cafe within the church to have some peaceful time , coffee and perhaps work or study

Great Café with the delicious coffee and kind baristas. If you are looking for special place in the centre of London for coffee with nosuch atmosphere, go there! Kristýna from Prague :)

Cracking little coffee shop in a lovely old church near St Pauls

Great small salad and ice tea for under £10. Amazing WiFi and atmosphere!

Excellent friendly service, fantastic atmosphere and location, great ☕ and 🥐

Really wanted to try this cafe but lunch is only served Monday to Thursday. This wasn't mentioned on the website. As it was Friday and we were hungry we couldn't stay. It looks beautiful though.

This is a place where you can enjoy coffee in the chapel. The atmosphere is nice and the baristas are friendly. Have a quick cup of tea before going to St. Paul's Cathedral

Fabulous place for a coffee and a cinnamon bun.

A lovely cafe hidden in a beautiful church. Friendly barista. Splendid decor and interior. The iced latte was okay, not catching up with the atmosphere unfortunately. Both indoor and outdoor seating available and it’s very laptop friendly, good to work/study. There’s a small secret garden at the back of the church, which is a great spot to sit, relax, or read with coffee when the sun’s out.

Lovely, peaceful - nice coffee too.

Beautiful building, good coffee, friendly staff

Deliciosas ofertas de café y pastelería. Algún dulce algo salado. Encantadora iglesia del siglo XVII convertida en cafetería con una misión evangélica. Este tipo de lugar fue una experiencia muy refrescante y justo al lado de nuestro hotel. Iría de nuevo

Had some time to waste before meeting the gf and due to the heat, needed a place to chill and escape the sun. Stumbled across this place in a church, very unique with a relaxed atmosphere with people working and having meetings.

Epic place! It's a coffee shop in an old church, which is so cool. The space is spacious, and the staff is super friendly. Crosissant wasnt my fav tho It might be a bit on the expensive side, but the great atmosphere makes it worth it.. probably a good place for a quick work meeting

Beautiful award winning cafe. Sometimes gets very busy like anywhere in the city and so can be hard to find a seat. Surely the mark of a good cafe though. Coffee is the focus with a very limited food range that is not cheap. Friendly staff with a stimulating lunch time talk series every Thursday from about 1pm to 1:30pm.

Amazing atmosphere in a beautiful old church, lots of space, good internet and incredible baristas… AND the coffee is 10/10

Fantastic cafe for breakfast in the city. Beautiful and peaceful place, nice coffee and very friendly staff

If you want to see St. Paul's or Tate Modern, cross the Millemium Bridge, and go to a cafe, come here. It looks like the cathedral has been converted into a cafe. The atmosphere is so pretty, right? There is a small bench park next to the cafe, and this is also used a lot.

Soy latte Tiny bitter Nice staff Lovely hidden gem

Came after a meeting until closing (16.30) to use wifi. Seems many folk have the same idea. Inside it seems to be mainly people on their own on their screens. So it almost has a library feel, a grand library given the interor. There's four tables outside where folks were chatting in the sun. Coffee is decent.

Rich in history, the venue is spacious and bright.

Great cup of flat white and delicious banana bread; chewy and warm.

Very nice coffee shop in a very different venue. Good friendly service and great coffee.

Gorgeous cafe with lovely staff

A wonderful place to grab a coffee

Impressive building. Food options very poor. Place is full of people on laptops nursing a coffee for the day.

Been here twice now, people have said the atmosphere is great and I’d definitely agree. It’s friendly, warm, good lighting but also, fantastically spacious, which is rare in London, considering so many coffee shops are crammed and very small. The coffee itself is really really good, I will definitely be going back again for that. The staff are friendly. I haven’t tasted the food, so can’t comment on that, although it might be good to have a bit more of a selection cake wise, but looking forward to going back again soon with friends/family.

Very very nice vibe. Ideal for reading or studying, can get a bit cold so bring a coat/jumper.

Good coffee, cool aesthetics, bad food/pastries

The coffee was not that good actually, however it is a really beautiful place, and the barista was super friendly and communicative

Really unusual place for a coffee shop Nd a bit "out of the way" but really great. Beautiful building, great atmosphere, spacious and with great coffee and food. Will be my default whenever in The City going forward.

Beautiful environment, nicely hidden away. Good selection of light bites, tea and coffee.

A wonderful cafe in a remarkable setting with excellent service

It's an amazing place. Delicious coffee and a relaxed atmosphere for work, study, or just to chill

An amazing concept! Beautiful ambience and great coffee. Really friendly staff as well.

Unusual experience to grab a cuppa and relax your weary limbs in a Wren-designed church. Very close to the bridge and St. Paul's.

Good drinks and great place to work from with a ton of tables including shared workspace.

Ultra friendly staff, quick service and the best matcha latte in the City of London

Such an unique place! Coffee/moccha were okay and similar with the ginger cookie. But the place worth the experience. Love the architecture

A beautiful haven in the city. Peaceful, good coffee and always great service.

This old church has a large modern interior, with well spaced tables, perfect for working, meetings or just catching up with friends. The coffee is good and staff friendly and efficient. A lovely cafe in the city.

Amazing spacious cafe in a church. Great for a break from London rain. Also great service and delicious pastries and coffee.

Beautiful, secluded and aesthetic place for coffee in central London. Loads of seating and tables and very spacious, making it peaceful and not noisy. Would be better if they gave mugs rather than disposable cups for coffee.

If you are looking for incredible drip coffee, this is your spot! With close proximity to St. Paul’s, spacious seating, and a kind staff, this is an ideal locale for commuters and tourists alike. The building is called “Wren Café” because like St. Paul’s, it was designed by famed architect Christopher Wren. It’s nice that this café opens at 7:30a, earlier than most in the area. Highly recommend!

Absolutely gorgeous café in a church immersed in the city

Great coffee, relaxing atmosphere.

Lovely, quiet and calm atmosphere to enjoy a coffee and croissant 🥐 ☕

The perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff are extremely friendly and hospitable. Coffee is served in a compostable cup so you might want to bring your own reusable cup if you are bothered by that kind of thing. Perfect place to meet up with friends, get some work done or just avoid the weather and tourist. There is a large accessible toilet and outdoor seating area of the weather is nice.

Good place to work. Closes at 16:30 though!

Great spot to work between meetings. Good coffee! Wish they had a wider selection of savoury food though.

Nice to grab a cuppa joe from an established roastery (they use Caravan coffee beans). Barista was courteous and coffee was good!

Not just a relaxing, comfortable ambience but a great latte too! Good to support an independent endeavour. Giant croissants etc.

A pity: beautiful location, but bad coffee and stale food. The Wren is based in St Nick’s striking building, with beautiful decor and high ceiling. The relaxed atmosphere makes it a great place for a break or for for those seeking a tranquil place to work. Sadly, on the day we visited we did not find the type of quality we expected from the pictures and reviews: the coffees were all served in takeaway cups rather than ceramic, the milk was burning hot, the brew over-extracted and the end result a coffee to skip. The pastries were stale. Overall a missed opportunity to make this a special experience beyond just the optics.

A rare and precious quiet haven in the City with first-class coffee.

They make the best Matcha Latte and the place is nice and spacious, makes for a very casual and relaxed vibe.

Very peaceful and relaxing place in the buzzy busy City of London. Need rest and high quality coffee? Pop in there. I am serious. The only one thing I have been a bit ,,disappointed, ....they serve coffee only into the take-away cups but I do love, when sitting in, real coffee in a real cup. But it s only one minus. Space is amazing, looks hidden but just 3 min walk from St.Paul' s Catedral, you will pass small chillout garden, just 20 min walk to very Liverpool street Station - tube, train, city bus, bus 🚍 heading to airport....why not to have perfect coffee before you fly :-)

Truely beautiful place and scenery. Amazing and friendly staff. Lovely place to get some work done.

Lovely friendly place- nice to have some character in the square mile.

Best flat white I’ve tried! Nice quiet ambience.

You cannot beat the atmosphere, it's in a thoughtfully adapted London Church not far from St Pauls.

Fantastic cortado and ambience, also the service is really kind

Ein schneller Cappuccino und ein Banana Bread gabs hier für mich in einer kurzen Pause. Service war sehr nett. Hat alles geschmeckt. Etwas bequemere Sitze wären toll. Preisleistungsverhältnis gut. Ansonsten ok.

A very unique cafe space with delicious coffee and pastries!

Good coffee in a lovely building.

Good coffee, exceptional architecture, kind, efficient staff

Great customer service and great place to work! I highly recommend this place, especially if you have the chance to be served by Ben.

Looking for a quiet, convenient and aesthetic cafe to work or study? If you haven’t had the chance already make sure to check this cafe out: because that’s exactly what it provides.

My double espresso was delicious. The barista was friendly and kind. A very nice quiet place to meet a client. A gem.

Incredible coffee, beautiful space, super friendly baristas. Highly recommend.

Cute cafe in the heart of the City of London, good drinks and treats

Very nice and interesting place. A lot of space, even if you want to have a cup of coffee with dessert and work a little bit. Kind staff. After 15:00 they have a 50% discount for some dessert, so I ate one pastel de nata there and got two more takeout. Highly recommend.

Great tea and coffee! Really calm and relaxing place to work with good wife and seating! Love it

I went here to do some work on a Friday. All the tables were full when I got there and had to share a larger 6 person table with some other patrons. The tea was good. I was not offered any reusable tea cup (I'm not sure if that is an option). I was there for about 2 hours and most of the tables were full the entire time and there was little turnover.

Happened upon this place whilst walking with my 5yr old son doing some detective work regarding the Great Fire of London. Decided to stop for a coffee and was greeted with a smile and some awesome history by the wonderful Ben. I hope this is fed back to him. He was kind and thoughtful towards my boy and made the experience one to remember. Oh and coffee was GREAT! Thanks Ben.
