Reviews of Coleman Coffee Roasters

D. H.

Great coffee. Nice little hidden gem, a stones throw from Waterloo Station.

M.

Was looking for a quick, satisfying coffee before jumping on a long train ride. Coleman’s Coffee did the trick! You can tell by the ‘bare’ feel of the place that the focus is on the coffee. Which you can taste! Good sized piccolo - will try their flat white next time, as I am now sure I won’t be disappointed by a large, watery, cup of milk like other cafes sometime serve.

C. K.

We came here to try their coffee after reading the reviews. The coffee is very good. If I was judging on coffee alone I would give this place 5 stars. However, the service is substandard. We ordered two coffees and they just forgot to make them. I went up after 15 minutes to ask if the coffee was coming and they kind of looked at each other and grumbled at why the other hadn't done it. It's a small cafe and they could see us sitting there with nothing in front of us. It was a weird atmosphere because it was clear that the two individuals working there didn't like each other and were not in the best of moods. Maybe I'd come back for a take away coffee but to be honest with so many options in the area it's worthwhile they up their service game!

N. L.

The best coffee I’ve had so far in London. (At least compare to the whole street or area) Flat White tastes the best , fragrant and with layers. I’ve been to here for 4 times and had Piccolo £2.6 and Flat white £2.8 they offer oatcakes and some pastries. All very good (except for the oatcakes which was a bit too oily that day) Be great if staffs could be more friendly.

P. M.

Pour over and espresso both very good, split and sawdust, very few chairs but nice service

T. P.

Popped in whilst walking by after being recommended by a friend. Can confirm they make a pukka coffee. Straight to the point interior and playing jazz. Cheers for the cortado ☕️

T. C.

This cafe serves great coffee in a might-be rundown area, Lower Marsh, but only a few minutes walk from Waterloo station. It's stone-based interior reveals an authentic atmosphere of what it was before, a grocery store with a butcher counter. Friendly staff and reasonable prices, beans are always freshly roasted by themselves. They even offer some Greek biscuits. The only thing is when people have hot food the space can smile like what they ordered.

S. J.

I was in the area this weekend and needed a good coffee, so opened up the Best Coffee app to find this place was only a short walk away. I asked the guy for the filter options and there was either a Guatamalan or a Brazillian. He went on to say the Guatamalan will be more acidic and lively and the Brazillian will be richer and more muted. Straight away, impressed the guy knew what he was talking about so I asked for the Guatamalan. £2.90 for a pourover is an absolute bargain and within five minutes I had my coffee. Excellent service. Unfortunately I felt the coffee could have tasted a lot better. There was a distinct astringent dryness in the cup that reminded me of detergent. Bear in mind I'm being very picky and the coffee was overall pretty enjoyable and it hit the spot. But when I taste something ground on a commercial grinder and brewed with a commerical water filter that I can taste is not as good as what I make at home with a £200 grinder, a distiller and a bag of Epsom salt and bicarb, I am underwhelmed. But the value for money was second to none, so if I'm in the area again, I'll certainly come back in for an espresso.

A.

Lovely coffee shop with paired back feel. Very good locally roasted filter coffee along with a breakfast menu and small bites. Lots of nice touches such as the ceramics for sale and small garden out the back

J. H.

Super juicy espresso, lovely sweetness and balance of acidity. Coleman's is an impressive little speciality shop tucked away by Lower Marsh Market. They roast their own beans in Peckham and have an impressive selection of beans for sale. When I went in and had a browse no bags seemed to have been roasted more than 2 weeks ago which is refreshing considering the age of beans many shops seem happy to sell you. Service was kind and helpful, the interior stands out from the rest with its clean stone look, and my espresso arrived quickly and was presented well. Worth going out of your way to pay a visit to if you're near Waterloo.

J. L.

Good coffee place! Quite close to Waterloo station if you want to avoid the masses. The black americano I took was slightly overheated at the beginning, but the soft, smoothy flavour came back nicely later. The place itself is small but uses very well the available space. Great for a short stop and watch people by.

O. P.

Delicious coffee! I've bought the decaf Colombian blend a few times for my espresso machine and it is divine.

A. M.

Excellent little and independent coffee shop. I had a flat white - wonderful flavour.

E. G. V.

I had the most rich and delicious oat milk flat white. Honestly, one of the best I have ever had.

A. C.

I've come to the shop 3 times to buy beans and he's never open, it's always within opening hours, the door was locked yesterday at 10am, now it's 9.10am and no sign of life. Such a shame.

M. B.

Great little hidden garden. Great coffee. Chap behind the counter wasn't the chatty type and did not smile, however, a great little place for coffee.

N. R.

I live in the area and keep coming back to Coleman Roasters. I especially like their Oat Flat whites, which are of high and even quality. The oat cakes are also a delicious savoury treat that I can recommend warmly.

B. D.

Friendly staff, great food and lovely coffee as well as a really nice little garden. As they roast their own coffee beans, you can also buy these here to take home. They'll even grind them for you if you want and you get a free coffee if you buy a bag.

S. H. S.

Cosy coffee place with a nice market nearby. Good to chill out for a few minutes. Tried their brownie and latte - both were fine.

G. M.

Best coffee (and coffee shop) in London. Ollie and Alan are lovely. Hidden gem.

S. A.

The garden in the tear of the store looks fantastic. Coffee was very good. Had two cups and bought some beans. Recommend!

N.

Enjoyed my cappuccino

M. L.

They serve the best coffee in town! I love how they brewed coffees here. Creamy and tasty! Served best with toast and bagels! Definitely got to come back here and try other coffees in the morning.

C. R.

Amazing coffee and doing a great job to adhere to health precautions. I wasn’t able to really go into the shop but it seemed very nice.

C. K.

Great hole in the wall coffee shop. Good coffee with a great atmosphere. Be sure to check out their back patio. Highly recommend.

A. K.

The designer is a wizard/witch, deliciously cold 50ies sleek polished surfaces with Japonica touches of wood and pottery. Coffee good too- even in my caffetiere it gives up that refreshing tang of hipster brew. Very nice.

T.

Great snug spot in London. Great coffee. Worth a visit

j. b.

Unassuming and snug here, serving a flavoursome balanced coffee and bites that can hold its ground on a stretch swarming with competing 'all-comers' and 'ave-a-goers.' Reasonable price and pleasant service.

L. W.

Delicious coffee. Very simple and basic. Cute garden out back.

F. G.

Great coffee but not for everybody's pocket.

E. M.

Absolute gem in the Waterloo area. Fantastic coffee brewed from locally roasted beans. Offering a small menu of oatcakes with toppings and sweeties including a rich and decadent brownie. Well pulled coffee drinks made by a friendly staff. Small and cozy outside space, with blankets on offer in colder weather. Great spot, great coffee, great people.

C. M.

Was a very long queue when we went, seemed a bit short staffed, but the oat flat white was excellent.

M. M.

Great coffee. Very tasty oatcakes. Well worth popping in for a cup and sit in the lovely, albeit tiny, backgarden.

h.

For me, the best tasting coffee in London. My 'go to' for beans. I buy from here or their stall at 'Little bread Pedlar' at Spa Terminus.

M. M.

Really chilled place with amazing coffee and a great savoury pancakes. Very nice experience.

T. K.

I went in here for some beans. They made me a fantastic double espresso. Quite literally the best I have ever tasted! It was quite a shock because the place is totally unassuming and you would never guess it could be that good! One secret of amazing coffee is starting with amazing roast coffee beans, and the beans I bought here did NOT disappoint! Now I can have fantastic coffee every morning! Score!

A. Z.

Good coffee, nothing stands out though. The pastries are so good!!

A. r.

Coleman Coffee Roasters is definitely in my top 3 London coffee shops. I work just around the corner, so I make sure to pop in a couple of times a week - if I'm ever in or around town on the weekend, I also make sure to pop in for a fantastic cuppa, and some delicious treats. There's always a friendly bunch of people working there - highly recommended!

N. R.

Delicious coffee and a beautiful back garden. Charming place all round. Will definitely be returning.

M. B.

Definitely nicest coffee house near Waterloo station where you can actually have some peace and quiet for a conversation without interruption. Cheap drinks, coffee is at a high standard and the staff are chill af. We stayed for a couple of hours with no complaints.

A. S.

It's basically a crime on my behalf that I didn't leave a review for this place yet. As others mentioned, they have some tough competition with Four Corners next door, and I'm happy I don't have to choose between one or the other, as both serve amazing coffee. If you're there for a breakfast, order some oat pancakes and find a place in their back garden.

S. H.

Great coffee and friendly staff. I only get the time to go here when I bring my classic car down for Waterloo Classics which is held on Lower Marsh on the 3rd Saturday of the month and Coleman Coffee Roasters in one of the things, besides the cars that I look forward to. Highly recommend

M. W.

Great coffee, but a tad spendy.

S. N.

Great coffee, cute garden out back! Great place to work, good wifi but like anywhere bring earphones if you want quiet. It shuts early so do check hours before going.

R. C. H.

Beautiful little gem of a coffee shop, with delectable poised composite stone surfaces. Beautiful outdoor space. Excellent coffee, but sadly only serve whole milk. Very little in the way of food, but the oatmeal pancakes with whey butter are the USP here, and they're delicious, but (along with the whole milk) are not very healthy. No wifi, and in winter, freezing cold interior. Accept contactless/card.

L. V.

Lovely coffee and nicely decorated. They sell their own coffee beans at reasonable price. In my view, there are competitors in the same street but Coleman really stand out from the rest.

E. P.

To my taste this is probably the best espresso in town and beats many of the better known joints like Prufrock. Really friendly and unassuming which makes a change from the affectedly casual (or just downright rude) approach in so many. The beans to go are also excellent.

R. R.

Very good coffee. They do amazing oat pancakes - very similar to french "galette" but with oat flour. I have tested the bacon and tomatoes, the lancashire and chilli jam and the marmalade ones. All really tasty. The interior is very nice, very quaint and they have a lovely little garden. Perfect on sunny day Would definitively recommend

D. B.

The coffee here is rich, some of the best in London. But the baristas lack personality and quite frankly are cold and unfriendly. Still, when you just want that perfect coffee, it's one of the best in the area.

M. W.

Coffee is usually very good. As always however, this depends on the barista (long hair guy seems nice, but needs training). Service in general is terrible. Interior is standard fare.

M. M.

Coleman is difficult to rate because if you've ever had a 10/10 coffee and then Coleman is 12/10. This branch is just as good as their main roastery. Savoury pancakes are good, but not if you're starving. Would have loved to have something more substantial if they expand menu in future.

R. W.

I went to this shop based on the ratings here. I agree its a very unassuming shop and not exactly the place you would obviously walk in for a coffee. Ok...the coffee was surprisingly good...so why only 3 stars? Value for money Im afraid! There largest take away "latte" cup is lierally the same height as a standard credit card! Its undoubtably a single shot latte in a Tom Thumb size cup all for £2.90! At Waynes coffee (High Street Kensington) I get their smallest double shot latte (double the size of this cup) for £2.35 which comes with a loyalty card stamp and gets me a free cup every 4th or 5th cup I have! And the coffee is the best I've had anywhere in Kensington indeed London. So I'm really struggling with paying nearly 3 quid for a tiny albeit decent cup of coffee. 4 stars for the coffee but 3 stars overall because of the price.

F. H. (.

An incredibly adorned space for a contemporary, specialty coffee shop. Coffee & Service are first-rate. Genuine terrazzo coats the walls and surfaces like a luxurious public bath house — the lore of where this comes from is definitely worth asking about and adds to the experience. The yard is another peculiarity: pomegranates growing with sufficient exhuberance above a vent for the Bakerloo line depot.

L. G.

Best coffee in the area, and an eclectic assortment of other food and drinks. Friendly staff and a very peaceful garden in the back. Oaties are great for breakfast - I'd never heard of these but they are very tasty!

A. M.

lovely flat white. cute garden outside.

M. G.

One of the best coffees I've had in London! Smooth and rich. Great vibe. Definitely going back with a good book 👌👌

O. B.

First visit. Not disappointed, prices are pretty much in line with other quality coffee roasters. The coffee was smooth and perfectly strong. Would recommend.

E. I.

Nice and light. Hipsterest of hipster coffee joints, selling Iranian pistachio nougat for twenty quid next to coffee beans roasted by angels from a farm collective in Columbia, etc.

J. Š.

The coffee was great and all the place is pretty cool. Espresso was my favourite. I tried filter and it was average. Cappuccino could have had better foam.

B. C.

The filter coffee this week was from Guatemala and was excellent. Staff are unassuming but gracious and hard working. And the oatcakes were a revelation. Back patio has lots of character.

J. G.

Very good, but not amazing flat white, but I'm pretty picky about coffee. Lovely little cafe and setting in a somewhat sketchy area of town. The food looked very good but I didn't eat any.

G. K.

Love this place. Great staff & fantastic coffee. Free coffee when you buy beans which are gorgeous. Both espresso and filter. Get your coffee here

O. M.

Lovely coffee roasters and coffee ....v friendly lot with small but cosy tea garden at the back. The have a limited but nice selection of cakes. Defo worth a visit on the busy lower marsh

김.

Good coffee and small cozy space

P. M.

Good coffee but price performance is bad. Especially the oat crepes are very expensive considering beeing still hungry after 2 portions.

D. L.

Probably my favourite cafe in London. Wonderful coffee of course, brilliant oatcakes, and the most friendly and warm service ever. A must try!

J. R.

The menu is focused on great coffee and Staffordshire oatcakes. They also provide a selection of a few delicatessens. Very few seats and a bit noisy.

M. Y.

Delicious espresso. Smooth, syrupy and minimum acid flavour. Calm and clean shop, very friendly and stoic staff.

F. L.

Go here to get a proper filter coffee! Amazing, two blends to choose from. Highly recommended! Also have a cozy tropical backyard with two tables.

R. M. T.

Quirky little hipster coffee shop - not the fastest or friendliest service, but the Coleman roast coffee is pretty damn good! 👌🏼 'Garden' in the back is an unexpected add on for sunny days!

R. M.

Cheap drinks, coffee is at a high standard and the staff are chill. We stayed for a couple of hours with no complaints.

T. S.

Small place but perfect flat white. Sell their own beans there. Would have picked some up but too many in the cupboard at home.

J. D.

A great new coffee shop on Lower Marsh, offering great coffee, friendly staff and also delicious oatcakes. Also, make sure to check out their garden/terraced area it's pretty damn good.

C. M.

Best coffee in the area 🙏🏼

M. R.

Agreed with another poster below, for me this is one of the best coffees in town. They also sell beans which they grind for you. Best thing are the staff, they are genuinely friendly

A. J.

Great coffee. Highly recommend.

W. M.

absolutely terrific coffee, small but clean and chilled out atmosphere - love this place.

T. D.

Great coffee - but disappointingly no wifi so not somewhere you can work for a bit on your laptop, not one for the digital nomads of the world!

D. H.

Great coffee, served at the right size and tastes great. Some of the best coffee around Waterloo

N. V.

Think you can say you pay 'London' prices in here. We visited on a Sunday morning the pancakes are ok but the pastries seemed to stale and definitely not fresh

F. U.

small and nice store for coffee and other drinkable items (e.g. chocolate milk) pleasant and relaxing little garden in the backyard mostly not so many visitors but definitely worth a visit

T. I.

One secret of amazing coffee is starting with amazing roast coffee beans, and the beans I bought here did not disappoint.

M.

Very good indeed. 'Nuff said!

C. L.

Small cafe with nice selection of coffee and food (oatcakes for instance, which are similar to pancakes) as well as a few more unusual sourced cakes and drinks from outside the UK.

G. K.

Great coffee, delicious oat pancakes and a lovely little garden out the back that takes you right to Thailand :)

B. N.

I stopped by to have something to drink here when I was in London. I liked their atmospher, service, cups price and quality. Perfect

M. B.

Fine coffee, nice vibe, has a bit of a garden and there's beans to take home. Nice one

R. S.

Consistently outstanding coffee. I work in a coffee shop and our coffee is very good. This coffee is better. Good food too.

T. M.

Best coffee I've found in London so far- pretty expensive but beautiful to drink

D. B.

Cute little cafe with good service, good coffee and a nice garden filled with the smell of the flowers hanging from the trellises

O. L.

Great coffee, no nonsense 🙌

A. D.

Melbourne coffee snob approved. Great coffee, probably great other stuff but I have only ever drank the coffee.

(Translated) My favorite cafe in London. Nice coffee and music. Breakfast menus are great also. One of the best coffee shops in Central. Personally, it's better than Monmouth! The breakfast menus that come with oatmeal pancakes are really great, so please try it! Coffee is recommended for flat white! (Original) My favourite cafe in London. Nice coffee and music. Breakfast menus are great also. 센트럴에서 손꼽히게 커피가 맛있는 집. 개인적으로 몬머스보다 맛있어요! 오트밀 팬케이크와 같이 나오는 아침 메뉴들도 정말 훌륭하니 꼭 드셔보세요! 커피는 플랫화이트 추천합니다!

Z. U.

(Translated) Ordered a cup of latte. The coffee tastes stronger than other coffee shops. I love coffee and I think it tastes heavy. There is no Oatcake today, I don't know if it's because of Sunday. Had a strange white pistachio snack and it tasted good. (Original) 要了杯拿铁，咖啡味道似乎比其他咖啡店的浓一些，爱喝咖啡如我都觉得味道重。今天没有Oatcake，不知道是不是因为周日。吃了个奇怪的白色开心果小点心，味道还不错。
