Liten Coffee — Restaurant in London

If there’s ever a coffee shop that I wished to be just around the corner from where I live, Liten would be the one.

What this establishment offers is more than just the perfect drink, it is also their passion about what they do and how they do it. Whether it is coffee, tea or specialty drinks, they are always prepared to perfection, and most definitely with a touch of smile and a bit of a good conversation if you so desire.

The coffee here is just the best in the area, unbeatable. Let alone their specialty drinks, my personal favourite being chai latte and matcha. You can literally taste the difference because they procure real chai, ceremonial grade matcha and prepare your tea with a bamboo whisk! For coffee lovers, some days you walk into this modest little in shop to find guest baristas as a surprise!

The patisseries they source from local bakeries are also really amazing, on certain days if you’re lucky you may also come by their really sought after seasonal danish that are always sold out early.

The first time I visited, I witnessed a regular gifting Liten a custom made Lego built just like the shop, and I always see familiar faces whenever I go. So I think it is fair to say Liten is somewhere special to at least me and some other regulars, magical even if I may exaggerate a bit. It will always have a place in my heart. It is the perfect place on a good day or even a bad day, it will always bring something to lighten you up. Come experience the...

Lots of coffee shops on my list, this one I actually grabbed a hot chocolate because it was a bit late in the day for caffeine.

Super sweet place, very tiny (cute). Two stools and a low bench in the window indoors, plus a bench outside.

Hot chocolate was really good quality and both staff members on duty today were friendly and helpful. I liked the vibe of the place a lot, it feels stylish and artistic, but not stuck up. I think the piece of art on the wall out front must change semi-regularly looking at the pictures on Google, and it was different today. I like details like that.

Sadly not local enough for it to become my local, but if I lived closer I’d be there often.

Being a Sunday, street parking was free. I wouldn’t say there is plenty of space but I was lucky to be able to park less than one minute...

First visit yesterday was amazing! Very pleasant service, conversation light/not too intrusive. Coffee was impeccable. Today, my boyfriend popped in (while I tended to the dogs in the car)...he came out, agitated and disgruntled. The barista was far too chatty and intrusive with her questioning (borderline flirtatious). He wasn't in the mood to have a full blown conversation about himself in front of other customers, and politely told the barista so. Coffee tasted weak and far too milky. Not sure I will trust coming back. Yesterday was 5 stars all around but not...
