Poached - BROMLEY

I came across this hidden gem and I'm glad I did. The atmosphere is cozy, the food is excellent, and the service is friendly. They're also dog-friendly, so I got to see some adorable faces while I enjoyed an amazing brunch. I will definitely return.

On multiple occasions, the barista at this cafe has displayed a horrible attitude. It can be uncomfortable to be there if you happen to do anything to annoy her, such as asking her to lower the music or bringing in a pram. The loud music also makes it difficult to enjoy time with family or have a conversation with anyone. She tends to serve her friends first and if she is feeling stressed, it is very evident. It is disappointing because this cafe has the best coffee in Beckenham and delicious food. Despite being loyal customers for years, the poor service really affects the overall atmosphere and now, I hesitate to go back.

The barista at this restaurant was rude and unaccommodating, with curly hair and a foreign accent. She refused to cook vegetarian food separately and couldn't make a good latte. She was a drama queen and should be fired.

Visited for a Saturday morning breakfast with my wife. Both breakfasts freshly cooked. Great homemade brown sauce. Tea and coffee excellent. Friendly staff.

This places offers the best coffee in Beckenham, it’s never too hot and tastes burnt. Always just right. But ask for the large size, as the regular is too small for me personally. And have you seen the size of their pastries…erm hello! Great value for money.
