Nestled in the vibrant heart of Bermondsey, Crol & Co struck me as a pleasant surprise. The place radiated a cosy and inviting vibe, the walls adorned with well-designed items that added to the chic atmosphere. The Bonzini table football was an unexpected yet fun addition, immediately lightening the mood.
The drinks were delightfully refreshing. I particularly enjoyed their Gin & T, beautifully complimented by Bermondsey's own grapefruit tonic. A slice of grapefruit further enhanced the tang, creating a perfect balance that was both refreshing and invigorating.
As for the soundscape, it was lively yet unobtrusive. Even with the doors wide open to the bustling street, the soothing music created a cocoon of auditory comfort. The place's acoustics seemed promising, and I am keen to experience it fully on a quieter day.

*a note on the slaw: I thought it was delicious, even though I don't like licorice, but my husband tasted the fennel more than I did - maybe opt for the chips if you're particularly sensitive to the flavor of...
Read moreSpontaneously drawn in by the sun drenched, open air, street side seating and seeing smiling customers sipping lattes and desperately craving a coffee myself, I was immediately greeted with friendly service and swiftly brought a perfect oat latte. Little did I know this would be one of the most delicious lattes I’ve had since moving to London (I’m from NZ so a perfect latte is always being sought out). When I went to pay I chatted to the barista Zaphire who not only makes perfect lattes but is really lovely! Shout out to Joe and the other gentlemen who took my order as you were all so genuine and friendly. Next time I find myself in the neighbourhood I’ll def be back.
They also had a £10 lunch special that looked really delicious and amazingly priced so hoping to try that...
