Clocktower Cafe - Kingston upon Thames

I always go here lovely friendly place to have coffee or eat and the staff are amazing I would recommend going and trying all the lovey stuff fantastic menu easy to get to and parking as well

Welcoming relaxed environment, spotlessly clean, fantastic coffee, lovely home made food. Couldn't ask for more.

Small cafe but the product are great! Went there mid September when the weathers starting to get chilly and it was the perfect drink to have! Friendly staff and overall great!. Specially for this coming winter. Would definitely come back here again!

I cannot fault this cafe, maybe apart from some extra furniture hanging around. The food was amazing with wonderful vegan options. The staff were courteous which is a valuable quality currently where many restaurant are hostile to their customers. All the regulations were covered but it definitely was not in our faces. I definitely recommend and will visit again.

This isn't a cafe in the conventional sense. What were once the public toilets serving Claremont Gardens (and, for a while in the 1980s, one of the most disreputable spots in the Royal borough) is now the Clocktower Cafe; with the Surbiton clocktower itself dominating outside. The problem with this Lebanese experience is not the food (very good) or the cafe, but the opening hours. It seems to be closed more than it's open. I arranged to meet someone there at 10am last week. I arrived slightly early, at 9.45am. No sign of life. A faded notice on the door seemed to be relaying something about opening hours, but it had bleached in the sunshine and was unreadable. I left a message on my friend's phone and went to the next nearest cafe. Imagine my surprise when I got a text at 10.05am saying she was sitting in the Clocktower Cafe and what drink did I want to order. A cafe should surely be open by 10am. Maybe there's too much commuter competition for that first caffeine shot of the day. A nice spot, but unreliable. Seems to close on Fridays, completely.
