Jos JonesJune 18, 2017Fantastic find. Excellent coffee and chai tea as well as delicious breakfasts, generous portions (especially the avocado). Staff are friendly without being over the top. Go for brunch!

ℳ𝒶𝓎♍February 28, 2015Flat White sets the rules for smooth coffee in London being one of the initiators of the new wave of coffeeshops in town.Good coffee with fine flavors, I wouldn't mind a more dense roast to be preciseUpvoted 2 weeks ago
Social News NetworkOctober 14, 2013A wonderful, calming place to sit for a bit of respite after the surrounding craziness of Piccadilly Circus and Chinatown! Had the freshly-brewed mint tea (sprigs in the kettle) and it was divine.
Magdalena MrázkováJuly 7, 2016Tiny little cafe that absorbs you and makes you forget about time. And their poched eggs...pure heaven!
Richard FooApril 24, 2015Great coffee that's flavorful, strong and brewed at the correct temperature. Try the blueberry poppy seed cake too. Sandwiches are also great.
Joury IbrahimDecember 2, 2016Good coffee spot in Soho. The Flat white was alright. The foam was perfect. Great and attentive staff
Mohammed AlShareefDecember 22, 2017A flat white cup made with a single origin Brazilian coffee beans. It was acceptable but not too great. The staff is great.
vvergieJuly 30, 2016Avocado toast & poached eggs, water with strawberries, coffee & pastries 👌👌👌 SOHO & CHEAP 🙏
JETMay 21, 2015The flat whites are good. Their roast is moderately acidic with a hint of a smokey aftertaste...not necessarily my favourite but I still like it. Some will love it. Friendly service.
Boaz SachsSeptember 28, 2015One of my favourite coffee destinations in London. Options are fairly simple but the quality is usually high. Staff is friendly and professional
SDecember 23, 2017Extra-small and cozy speciality coffee place ❤️ the ginger caramel cake is not be missed.

New York HabitatApril 2, 2014With a blend of Australian & New Zealand culture, this shop offers its signature drink, the flat white! Their iced coffee is also very tasty.
DanisJanuary 24, 2015Go for the coffee, the food options are a bit limited. The blend is nice and all coffees were brewed properly.
Ralf Gerhard HamburgNovember 30, 2014Flat White started my passion for coffee in 2005. I'll never forget this amazed feeling of "Wow - that's what coffee can taste like". Thanks for that, You made my life richer!
Karl DelandsheereApril 17, 2015Tried the flat white (obviously). Really good. Didn't eat but the food looks yummy!
Amazing poached eggs on toast with hollandaise (plus side of bacon) and some of the smoothest, best tasting coffee in the West End.- Had a bit of a facelift, new staff too. Breakfast menu seems to have fine but they have bagels and pastries on display. Will miss those poached eggs!
Giulio RuggieriOctober 27, 2012Some of the best coffee you can get, great brekkie too . Warning: speed isn't their strength , cash only is a pain if you forgot about it and you are ordering food.
Joey CarmelloFebruary 22, 2015No longer cash only. Saw some older tips claiming so. Great coffee and a cosy place to enjoy some toast and jam.
Burak AltindagSeptember 20, 2013Best coffee in Soho. Much better than the chain coffee shops. Love this place!
Financial TimesAugust 22, 2011Flat White opened in Soho in 2005 and was the first of a new wave of coffee shops in London to champion the Antipodean way of starting the day... Read more
Alex BurrowsDecember 6, 2014Expresso is great, flat white is great, sandwiches are slightly on the small side but good value. CASH ONLY!!
Fadi F.April 26, 2013Lovely small & friendly coffee shop. Their latte is just right & perfect. Sit outside on the bench & enjoy people walking by.
Daniel S.June 16, 2015One among the many excellent coffee shops in the area. I really liked the espresso.
Alex WatsonMarch 26, 2016Original flat white coffee shop and still excellent. Good lemon drizzle cake too.
Vic McGinDecember 20, 2015Tasty coffee and bagels. Better for a short stop or take away coffee, versus somewhere to linger for a while.
Casey HoJanuary 19, 2020One of the best coffees in London, I always try and stop by when I am in the area
Clinton SweetOctober 29, 2014Artwork is good if you're into that. Flat whites are a strong drop - exceptional coffee. A touch loud and busy. Probably prefer their sister store Milkbar just down the road
Jana DolejšováJuly 14, 2016They should make the best flat white in London considering the name. It's just above average though.
Megan ButlerNovember 24, 2014A really nice flat white and all other coffee types. My boyfriend loves their piccolos
Mike MelazzoAugust 18, 2011Stick to flat white or piccolo here. The straight espresso is a bit rough but somehow turns into black magic when mixed with milk...and the brownies alone are worth the trip!
AManda HUangJune 10, 2017Mocha was😍However consistency isn't there.Went d 1st time n it was amazing.2nd time d coffee tasted totally different but still alright. However, I guess the weather interfered with d calibrations.
Lisa FreidJune 7, 2013I am not sure about #best coffee..but the porridge is DEF.bestes I've ever tried.
My favourite coffee shop in Soho, if not London. Excellent flat white. 5*
Oleksandr PiddubnyiApril 21, 2018The very best Flat White and Brownie in my life! Highly recommend!!!
Ivan D'AlbertiNovember 14, 2011Nice and good tasty place I remember the good atmospher and the good flatwhite drink with a big choc muffin on side.. Wow so good
Great coffee, flat white, cappuccino. Good breakfast options too
Fionners GJanuary 17, 2014I'm not sure about Flat White anymore. The staff seem to be too young and the stalwart cappuccino style was made both times like a latte.
