Arise Coffee Roasters — Restaurant in London

Arise Coffee Roasters is my go-to café to go in Ealing. I work near by so this is the only place I go to when I want to enjoy a good coffee with nice food in a great atmosphere: The coffee is delicious and they have a great range of varieties in terms of coffee AND drinks (this is the only café in Ealing proposing a lot of different drinks such as Greek café Freddo, Turkish coffee, Vietnamese drip and so on + other milk drinks) Food choices are great also as they have a lot of vegetarian options but also make a lot of protein plates for those of us watching our carb intakes. (The fact that they make a Keto plate made me come back as this is very rare to find in a café) They also always adapt to your needs or if they are out of a product they will replace it with something else etc and the food is good overall. They also make fresh gluten-free cookies and matcha cookies that are simply delicious! I keep buying them. Staff is very friendly. Since the first day I came in I was very welcomed and had some laughs with some of the staff who is also highly experienced if you are looking for speciality coffee to buy and grind for home (as they roast their own coffee). Now that I come in very regularly (at least 3 times a week), I always enjoy some discussions and smiles with some of the staff. Atmosphere is also great, always positive vibes with cool music playing.

I feel sorry for some of the bad comments as some people didn't get the best experience but I can promise you that this is a gem in Ealing and I had a much better service overall than Kanenas that some people mentioned or other ventures like multibillion American companies around who serve basic coffee and don't care of their...

The first time I visited Arise I tried the Hong Kong milk tea. Which was just like tea I’ve had in Asia. Strong black tea with a lot of milk. I loved it. The food menu looked appetising, and I would definitely return to try some. They have some unique options which makes a change from the coffee shops in the area. There was a nice vibe, with many locals who enjoy their coffee and getting to know their friendly baristas. The gentleman barista was very knowledgeable about his coffee beans and also mentioned that at quiet times, you can try out single and blends. The second time I visited there was a beautiful scent of roasting coffee in the air. They blend the coffee on site, so you always get a fresh batch. You even have the option to buy coffee beans and on the spot roasted/ground beans, in your own containers. Saving on plastic and packaging. I tried the house blend coffee, but I felt the balance between milk and coffee may have been off, as it tasted almost like filter coffee. I also had a coffee bun. Like some Asian desserts, the bun was not too sweet, light, bouncy and complimented the coffee well. It was very busy, so I’m hoping it was just a bad day for them. I will still return as the staff are friendly and helpful; the tea was good and the vibe was relaxed. I am looking forward to trying some of the unusual...

Came for 2 flat whites while the store had only two customers inside. After we ordered we sat down as more people came in. After a long while the staff then called out one flat white and as I came up and took it, she spoke in Cantonese to another customer who came in much later than us and said I took their flat white. When she made a second one, she handed it to this other customer. After which I proceeded to speak Cantonese to the server as I heard her speak it fluently to the other customer, where she proceeded to play the race card and say “just because I’m Asian doesn’t mean I understand what you’re saying”. Furthermore, she proceeded to pour away the flat white she was about to hand to me (which had mediocre latte art to say the least) to make me wait longer and said I’ll make another one. Proceeding to pour a flat white with no latte art and milk spilling down the side of the cup. If you like preferential treatment handed to others then this is your place. If you like mediocre coffee for ridiculous prices, then please go...
