This is the place that I keep coming back to⦠because when I sit down and see a beautiful cup of latte on the table (perfect latte art and exquisite handmade ceramic cup made by Calvin - one of the owners), I can finally pause, and think. Being a mum of little ones I donāt get much space and time for myself at all. But sitting in this place even just for 15 mins is always a treat.
I normally get the flat white - which is easily the best flat white Iāve had in this country and trust me, I used to live in London. Iāve also had many decaf and oatmilk versions when Iām pregnant or breastfeeding. They are equally delicious.
Today Iām having the vanilla biscoff latte and a pain au chocolat. In the biscoff latte you can still taste the coffee, unlike flavoured drinks in chain coffee places where you can only taste syrup and milk.
This is a haven of calm and peace. The decor and music work so well to enhance the experience. Whether youāre catching up with a friend, having some me time, or a coffee date with your little one, you will be welcomed here. I will always support independent coffee shops, especially one like Shou where they clearly care so much about the quality and integrity of each cup of coffee. It is a piece of art. You deserve every success....
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI absolutely love this place! From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in the calming, zen-like ambience and greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The staff here are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready with a smile.
Their coffee is top-notch, with a wide variety of options to suit every palate. And let's not forget about the pastries ā although I didn't have one today as it was a quick stop, they're look divine and seemed very popular!
The atmosphere is perfect for catching up with friends, studying, or simply enjoying a moment of solitude with a good book.
Overall, this coffee shop has everything you could ask for ā fantastic coffee, tasty treats, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. It's become my go-to spot, and I can't recommend it...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreIf you want to pop into a coffee shop to be met with a smile, hello and a conversation Iād give this one a miss. Very rude guy serving. Seemed more interested in his magazine and phone. Reading his magazine while customers are stood in front of him. My wife didnāt get a hello, eye contact or any conversation. Just a āyesā and the till turned round (assumption made that it was to pay). I had my own speciality coffee shop in Manchester and have opened many in London. The level of arrogance that comes as a pair with the industry now makes me really sad. Made a trip out of our way to visit, really disappointing. Also please donāt advertise speciality coffee and use Tesco milk. Itās just lazy and...
