Reviews of Lola's Bakery - West Hampstead Cafe
H. b. D.
Well my daughter came here and were initially thinking they may say oh there is no space or something. But the usher was so friendly and the waitress was great Now we both had a chai latte which was great. ☕️The coffee walnut cake 🍰was scrumptious and not too sweet. The blueberry cheese was as beautiful as it tasted. We sat near the aloe Vera plant 🪴 and felt very relaxed . I am sure I heard the UrSher say 45 minutes or something like that but we must have stayed longer. Nice clean place with lovely atmosphere. 😍Well done 👏🏽 thank you
P. P.
Ordered from here for a family birthday party and wow did they deliver!
Perfect selection of cakes with all the flavours you could ask for. Friendly staff and very clean shop too.
Will certainly be going back for next party, thanks Lola’s Bakery!
L. A.
First of all: fantastic gluten free menu!
The staff are pleasant, and the food is good.
We had: avocado and poached eggs on gluten free bread, shakshuka avo on toast, gluten free pancakes with banana and maple syrup, two fresh orange juices and two teas.
Amazing fluffy pancakes, however it would be nice if they didn’t use cow milk’s yoghurt and instead a plant-based sustainable yoghurt. But all in all, a really nice place for the gluten free :)
P.S: would be nice if the toilet was kept to a cleaner standard.
A. P.
Amazing brunch options! Gluten free pancakes were exceptional!!
E. C.
My delicious aquamarine birthday cake for work colleagues arrived on time.Thank you so much for the cake, everyone absolutely loved the cake and it tasted amazing. I would recommend Lola's service to anyone!
Aquamarine colour is recommended for people born in March :) In ancient times, aquamarine was believed to be the treasure of mermaids.
J. C. (.
Such a wonderful atmosphere with delicious menu options. Had the hot cocoa tonic and really satisfied on a cold rainy day. Service is great - will definitely return for cakes!
S. F.
What a great place for breakfast/ brunch. The menu is full of the things that you would want to eat for those meal times. I had the shakshuka which came with Sourdough toast, so delicious. My daughter had the pancakes with bacon which was fluffy pankes, maple syrup and topped with bacon. The issue was watching all of the other dishes being served, eggs, mushrooms, etc. Made me want to return as soon as possible. Great find in West Hampstead.
O. a. A. G.
Cupcakes from heaven and other good stuff. A place to sit and enjoy it. Nothing more to say then WOW
S. C. F.
I'm gluten Intolerant and here I felt like I was in paradise.
Most of the options are gluten free and everything is dilicious!!
I had amazing avocado on toast, poached egg and the fluffiest pancakes ever!
Staff are really friendly.
I definitely recommend this place.
A. S.
The selection of gluten free vegan cakes is amazing. Their lemon polenta blueberry cake is delicious! I tried the breakfast once and sadly found the porridge really dry and so down rated one star
N. K.
The service is fine. Although I didn’t receive the notification about my cake being available for collection until the next day (had to call and check), they prepared and got everything ready in time. The cake looked great, just like in the picture.
However there is something really weird going on with the cream: it was good in the center, but everywhere else it was very primitive sugary cream more common to cheap cupcakes. It felt like there were two completely unrelated types of cream, one of which was terrible. Would be 5/5 if not for this regardless of the notification failure.
G. R.
My father and I went for lunch and cake on Xmas eve and enjoyed it so much. Delicious food, a cosy atmosphere and the most warm, polite and attentive staff. Simply wonderful!
k.
cupcakes are a little pricey and had a lot of icing which wasnt the best ive ever had. i think the cake to icing ratio was probably 40/60 but maybe it was just the one i ordered that has that problem. either way the decor is beautiful and there are so many options for vegans and non vegans, its impossible to fault them on that regard. id come back and try more however, i still have a lot of hope!
B. C.
The best bakery in the area! Friendly and helpful staff, lots of vegan options and gluten-free cakes. Amazing coffee, vibe and people! Highly recommended to anyone passing by!
M. B.
Visited on Saturday for late morning brunch. Very busy time of day but we got seated after a 10 minute wait. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Some of the dishes seemed a bit on the pricey side, but portions were massive so no complaints there!
I had the vegetarian English breakfast. The veggie sausages were far better than most I have in cafes, the eggs were great and the sauces were fantastic. Will definitely be coming back for more in the future.
h. l.
It's an okay café, as it's a chain it's a bit difficult to judge. The cakes we had weren't very nice, but maybe that was just our choice. It's unlikely that I would visit again but maybe for cupcakes it would be interesting.
G. Q.
If you're a fan of Lola's cupcakes then you have to come to their bakery! As soon as you walk-in you're presented with glorious cakes, tarts and a selection of svaoruy items on display. The menu is fabulous and they really do cater for all (veggies, vegans, gluten free etc). The do classic brunch dishes as well as more breakfast and lunch items like toasties, rarebit brekky, toasties and salads. The coffee here is pretty decent too, the portions are big and are definitely value for money compared to other cafe's in heading towards central London. The staff are great and the venue has a great atmosphere. A must go to place.
A. Y. W.
It’s a really lovely place, pretty decorations and friendly staffs. I only got a croissant and a coffee latte to go. The croissant was average and the coffee was terrible. Maybe they’re just good for their cakes.
N. A.
My youngest daughter has celiac disease. We just moved to England from San Francisco, CA and I was stressed out about finding a gluten free cake for her birthday. Not only are we new, we also are in lockdown and I wasn’t sure I could find anything. She really wanted a red velvet cake.
Google was my friend and helped me find Lola‘s. They have so many vegan options everything‘s gluten-free and it’s absolutely delicious! They also have a cake locker where you can pick cakes up in an old red phone booth. They have locations all around the city and the products are great ! Thank you Lola’s. It is really hard to be 10 years old and not be able to eat cake and cookies and churros and everything else the 10-year-olds usually get to eat. Lola’s really made it an exciting special day.
Update- we have been back several times. The people are wonderful and the products are consistently fabulous. BUT, If you want one of their gluten free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, you better get there early. They are amazing and sell out fast!
J. M.
Known primarily for their delicious cakes, this location also has a café. They serve not only their classic sweet treats but also a variety of all-day brunch options such as breakfast pastries, pancakes, French toast, avocado dishes, eggs done in a variety of ways as well as a few vegan options. I highly recommend this place, I ordered the mushrooms and poached eggs on toast which was simply delicious. The place itself is bright and airy and the service was very good.
S. D.
Lovely and delicious bakery for brunch and dates. Highly recommended and a must try for cupcakes and cakes in general.
D. S.
I go to Lola's multiple times a week - their cakes and breads are the best quality. However, why are the staff so miserable there? Please cheer up!
P. C.
Lovely drinks. All the cakes are gluten free, and the brunch/lunch menu is surprisingly extensive with loads of choices - many of which are or can be gluten free. Service can be a bit slow and you can't book a table. But well worth the wait.
H. D.
The food and atmosphere is great. Great vegan selection. Server Josepe was amazing.
a. h.
Amazing cupcakes especially for those who have allergies and know that it is not easy to find gluten free or dairy free tasty treats..
Pistachio cupcake is my favorite, but there is no way I would say no to lola's vegan fudge..
M. T.
Good food, Lola is always a guarantee and here in particular everything is organic (which justifies the prices)👍😁 however I would say that service still needs improvements, which is something that I would expect from any newly opened place. I took a seat but I had to wait a good 15 minutes for someone to ask me if I had been served and it wasn't busy. One person serving the tables and at least 4 behind the counter which shows a bit of disorganisation. It wasn't busy so someone else could have approached me. I am sure that it will improve with the time 😉
T. C.
Really great food and a generally awesome selection!
Their cupcakes are always amazing as well!
Recommend getting their full English breakfast especially if you're vegetarian as it is really tasty.
Included are chickpeas which was fairly decent.
Really recommend going here if you have the chance!
S. B.
Love the space for sitting-in to enjoy a range of delicious all-day treats. We stopped for a cuppa and cupcakes at 4pm and were not disappointed. Awesome friendly, warm service. Keep up the great vibes!
L. L.
Great gluten free options! The vegan gf choc fudge cake is amazing! ( I'm not vegan)
R. S.
Nice bakery/cafe in west Hampstead close to the mainline station. Service if very friendly. There are plenty of seats along the side and at the back of the restaurant. The menu has many breakfast and all day brunch options as well as plenty of baked goods.
G. B.
Purchased half a dozen cupcakes that were decorated with great attention to detail. Would highly recommend if that is your thing!!
Q. S.
Ordered couple of birthday cakes. We absolutely loved them all.
S.
Lola's quality seems to have gone downhill. It lacked the warm customer service and the sandwich I ordered felt mediocre with bread that needed a knife and fork to cut into. Disappointing post pandemic...sorry
R. P.
Everything very good. Very tasty and well presented.
R. C.
The staff here were really friendly, and apologetic that we couldn't order hot food (we turned up too late). Not to worry, the cakes and pastries on the counter were great and we'll definitely be going back for more
V. V.
A lot of staff for slow service. With so many people and not a huge amount of tables it should be pretty slick.
Coffee and pain au chocolat £6.19 which I am assuming includes service (slow service) but I never saw a menu and wasn't offered a receipt.
P. I.
Ok brunch options. More decoration than flavor in my opinion. I went 2 days and I preferred the eggs Benedict.
B. e.
I love the manager there when she is in everything is as it should be. The cakes are just the best also one of my favourite coffee in West Hampstead.
G. W.
Lola's is a fine little bakery café that I like to visit when I'm waiting to catch the train to Gatwick. They sell lots of pastries, buns, sandwiches and delicious things -
L. S.
Top notch regular lunch spot. Slightly pricey but it's London so what do you expect and the food is very good quality.
N.
Food was good, service was good too
It must be said that things aren't cheap here, but relatively worth the price
D. A.
Amazing gluten free cakes. Special price for takeaway.
G. G.
Nice cafe and friendly staff, but a bit over hyped and does not justify the price. Gails is better as a bakery ...
J. Y.
For BREAKFAST, not as great as expectation, although price is reasonable. Only had their cupcakes prior to this which are top notch - will just stick to their cupcakes / cakes in future!
D. v. d. M.
Absolutely love this place. Service is so warm and intimate. Everything they do is excellent, from coffee to the breakfast and offcourse the cupcakes and the cakes are like ridiculously good. Oh and definitely have the chocolate cinnamon Chelsea bun - you will die and go to heaven.
S. G.
I have been a few times recently to Lolas for lunch since being at home due to covid restrictions.
The cakes here are always delicious and my absolute favourite. However, the food seems to be really bad. I recently had boiled eggs on toast which should be simple. The toast was cold and the eggs completely hard boiled. My boyfriend had the pancakes that were poor. The full English breakfast is always large and seems quite good but they could go for better quality sausages.
I think Lolas is great for coffee and cakes but the food to eat in is below average and extremely over priced for the quality.
E. W.
My friend and I were served by a delightful lady, Jess. The tea room was clean and the environment attractive. Not to mention the delicious pistachio based muffin we ate. Thank you, Lola's. We'll be back! 😊
F. i. h. w.
Place looks new and clean, staff is really nice and I heard brunches are great. So why only 3? Well, their cakes have always been a disappointment to us, whether we went for cupcakes or other kind of cakes: they’re not bad, just very basic and pricey.
H. B.
First time at Lola's, trying to find brunch. Nice food, especially pastries, but not very welcoming, one staff member boarding on rude. Other staff were completely fine.
S. A.
Say Hello to Barry!
Lola's Bakery is a fantastic place to eat or just have a relaxing coffee. The food whether it be just a cake, a ciabatta or a fantastic brunch is excellent, you will not be dissapointed. Lots of different drinks and great service. And crucially at the moment they have an excellent C19 procedure. I can't recommend it enough.
M. P.
I go to Lola’s quite often (alone and with friends) because it is one of the best local places that offer gluten-free options for me (and vegan options for friends). The food is fresh and responsibly priced. The coffees are delicious (even when using a milk substitute)!
It is always busy in there which I think reflects how great it is! I do agree that sometimes the waiting staff are slow/ confused but I think the one I had in particular was being trained so it’s understandable. I personally am quite a patient person and I think there are worse things in life than waiting an extra 5 minutes for a latte.
I think the restaurant could benefit from having a more organized structure to the service: two people making drinks/ two on counter and however many on waiting tables. I often find they are all over the place and have observed many confused (probably new) customers come in and not know what to do/who to talk to.
Overall, I really enjoy coming here and do so often! Keep up the good work.
H. W. H.
Absolute delight having Lola's across the road from us! The staff are amazing and super friendly! None of us at Hunters would start our day without a Lola's coffee! Thanks for being so great guys!
L. D.
Excellent place, friendly stuff, very clean and with a superb choice of cakes.i love it !
M. H.
Wonderful spot in London! Great atmosphere, great food and service!
L.
Fantastic vegan options including a vegan english breakfast. Would have liked it to be a little bigger but still incredible
A. A.
Cakes are good, but some of the staff are impolite. Wouldn't mind the price for cakes/coffee but definitely wouldn't be going back again as there are other coffee/pastries shop nearby with more welcoming/friendly staff.
A. M.
Amazing food and service!! This was our first outing after lockdown ended and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The food was delicious (I had a salmon burger and an orange juice) and Enza was wonderful. It really made our day. Thank you!! ❤️✨
R. A.
Tasty food, love the variety available on the menu for breakfast food. Only issue is the place is a little small so there’s not always space to sit.
F. K.
Purchased a cake, but not very friendly service, very ignorant staff.
D. R.
Had the most amazing cod risotto. The best ive eaten. The service was superb, and the waitress also recommended a wine. 100%all round
C. G.
So happy you're open again, glad I could stop by this morning. Staff was friendly as always, you made my day :) Love your coffee and your cupcakes never disappoint!
O. R.
So many vegan options (croissants, cakes, pastries, milkshake...). Taste was amazing, can't wait to come bake and try this giant piece of chocolate fudge =)
M. B.
Lola's bakery has really delicious cakes with a good range of flavours. They offer a large variety of vegan options too.
a. a.
Good bakery with good coffee's and a nice place to sit however, some of the staff are extremely rude. I was studying here and one member was making comments about how it is not a place for studying, also entertaining rude comments by another costumer who suggested we should be in a library. They also asked me to move my table 3 times so the other customers could sit even though I had ordered breakfast, coffee and a cake. Overall a funny experience as I couldn't care less but beware of rude staff and old grumpy customers.
s. s.
Small café and bakery with some great desserts and breakfast options.
G. S.
Such an amazing selection of food for vegetarians. Can't wait to return.
S. A.
Very good vegan and gluten free option.
A lots of cakes and cupcakes.
Cakes are very big,soft and tasty.
Very good service even on a busy time.
They should have jasmine tea as a option.
Very happy overall,I will definitely come back.
A. M. G.
Great place for vegans, chai latte is so yummy and the cakes and desserts too
A. I.
This is an amazing bakery catering for all types of eaters - vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free. They also do wonderful, healthy - and some unusual - cakes as well as fabulous cafe lunches and breakfasts. The staff are excellent, smiling and friendly, and make you feel very welcome. I will definitely go to this pleasant, vibrant, clean, superb, cafe again.
P. A. P.
Awesome lunch - Super Greens tart with salad and probably the best chocolate milkshake I've ever had (made with Almond milk and very healthy). Really nice staff too. I will be back asap. I can imagine becoming addicted to that milkshake.😊
G. C. C.
Best place ever... very friendly, super attentions staff all very helpful and proactive Lola's Bakery for me has a vibrant and elegant style! Good prices and the bakery is amazing! ❤❤❤❤❤
J. A.
Delicious food, very well prepared and presented. The choice of both sweet and savory food is quite big and the coffees are very tasty. The baristas and waiters were really polite and friendly however there is some room for improvement here i.e. the waiting staff can be more proactive and more "aware" of what goes on in general. It was very busy though, which does not help the staff of course. A very good experience overall, I recommend this place if you are in the area.
J. R.
A great affordable french toast with apple cinnamon as a sweet option for brunch if you can manage to catch a table in their airy and private back seating area.
Their staff are also quite friendly. I look forward to coming back to sample what looks like beautiful and delicious baked goods!
A. H.
Lovely interior and friendly staff, but food isn't freshly made even though it's advertised as such. Had a very soggy Chicken Caesar salad. Was told that it was freshly made in the morning - it was 3pm when I ordered it.... Same thing happened next time I ordered another salad. I hope they can sort out the food as it's otherwise a very nice place.
I. Y.
Coffee and cheesecake tasted good little pricey that cake😑but damn it was nice. I went there and for some reason there was 10 members of staff working in that tiny space(yes I actually counted and 3 is the most I've seen at Starbucks), even though there was so many staff members the customer service was lacking. Not even a simple hello. Interior is nice specially on a sunny day.
s. w.
The food here is nice, especially the cakes, although other food is less and less mindful of vegan or plant based eating. The service, however, remains abysmal. Over a year after opening, the waitresses still forget what you order, don’t bring water, there are huge delays, you are not offered sauces, and there is general confusion. It is getting more marginal to put up with this as the food becomes less focussed.
J. C.
I really enjoyed the food, but the tables are a bit tight. O Service was good, staff was also friendly, and there was a particular servant called Ruby who helped me a lot to better understand the dishes and also gave me a shot of the shake for me to sample and manage to make the best decision. Felt spoiled. Loved it, I will be back more often and I will recommend it to my friends.
D. K.
Good place for breakfast - the full english is very good and they serve excellent coffee. We had no issues getting a table for 2 at 9:30 (on a Sunday morning) but it did get very busy around 10:30/11ish - lots of people were waiting for tables by this point! Enjoyed it though, would go back.
K. S.
Comfortable location, friendly staff and tasty food. One thing I would like to suggest is half portions for the loaf cakes for those looking for a treat and watching what they eat. I had the Chocolate Beetroot Loaf which was moist, not too sweet and a good flavour but it was huge! Too much for one person. Doggy bag isn't always the answer either as it can be just as much about calorie control as reluctance to waste food.
A. B.
The food is fresh and responsibly priced. The cakes and coffees are really delicious
It can get quite busy in there so there’s times we’d have to wait abit longer for our food and drinks, nether the less it’s a nice place to dine
d. J.
I like the seat inside 💖
L. L.
My friend and I visited on Thursday, excited to try as we have seen Lola's Bakery had just opened in our hood. We both got a coffee and cake, she had the berry cake and I had a banoffee cupcake. We both agreed the coffee was terrible, neither of us usually take sugar with our coffee but it was that nad she took 2 sugars and I added 1 cube. The banoffee cupcake was the most decent thing, just overpriced for what it is, £3.95 if you eat in. The berry cake wasn't great, sponge was slightly stodgy. I also tried the red velvet and carrot cake samples at counter. Red velvet tasted dry. I bake myself and my friend agreed my versions of red velvet and carrot cake are better. The menu did have quite a few appealing salads so I would potentially go back to try them. Its a nice place to catch up with friends and the back area makes it good for mums and their babies, but they need to improve the coffee as there are places like Wired and Loft, as well as Gail's to compete with. Service started off really good but for some reason it felt like the waitress was trying to hurry us out even though it was pretty empty. She kept trying to clear our table and seemed in a hurry to bring us the bill which was very strange and not appreciated. Disappointed for Lola's as wanted to enjoy my first experience there. Understand it might just be teething issues and new staff so will give it another chance.
G. O.
The food is really good, but I think that the tables are tight and there were many people on the counter. The staff was also very friendly, and there is a servant called Ruby , who helped me a lot to better understand the dishes that I wanted and I liked her because she always was talking to me with a smile on her face.
I Felt very spoiled.
And "Ruby" thank you very much.
A. H.
The inside of this bakery is one if the prettiest! Feels like you eould find this place in central london. Nice seating and very homley and cosy atmosphere. Delicious brunch and definitely recommend if you're in golders green
F. v. W.
Delicious and very generous portion of breakfast with friendly service and a great background music soundtrack. I would recommend the flat white instead of the cappuccino as it's basically a soup bowl of milk!
E. D. P.
The vegan cakes are divine. Quite a good selection of 4 different options of which we tried 3. Super chocolaty chocolate cake with a rich chocolate cream on top, the lemon cake with lots of layers of frosting with underlying coconut notes. Carrot cake just as you would expect soft and moist. Will be back as much as I can.
O. M.
Really good food & pastries, great service
N. S.
At Lola’s almost every day they do the best coffe I’ve tasted for a while. Depending on who’s doing the coffe. Always ask for a lady with long Curley hair I think her name is Joanna she’s amazing. All the staff seem lovely can’t say the same about the manager she always walks around like she’s in a bad mood. The breakfast/brunch is lovely but it’s been cold a few time which is not nice to eat. As long as my coffe is on point I will always return :)
J. S.
If however , you're a fan of Lola's cupcakes then you have to come to their bakery! As soon as you walk-in you're presented with glorious cakes, tarts and a selection of svaoruy items on display.
J. L.
Excellent cafe and bakery close to West Hampstead tube and overground. Good place to meet up and have coffee or sample patisserie or have brunch. Very popular at weekend (need to get there early for table for more than 2 people). Great staff.
R. M.
Popped into the bakery to pick up a couple of things while I waited at the station opposite. Both pastries I got were very delicious and kept me going through the day. One was a sweet potato and pumpkin seed rectangle thing, the other was some sort of deep quiche mushroomy affair. Staff were very helpful and quite friendly.
Z. B.
Great staff, amazing coffee and yogurt is delicious. Highly recommending
J. A.
Amazing breakfast very delicious!!
I will be back soon!
J. B.
Had the best vegetarian breakfast here! Great coffee and cake too.
It was very reasonably priced and a good portion size.
Would love to come every weekend.
R. D.
Lovely food but very large portions so we may share next time x
G. T.
Excellent. The menu is great for gluten and dairy free people. Highly recommended the bullet proof coffee. Easy to find, just past Tesco on the high street just a few hundred yards from the tube.
R. T.
All delicious 🤤 I wanted to buy everything
E. L. N.
Tried the delicious vegan cakes. I find vegan cakes or cakes that use alternatives to have a weird after taste of the replacement ingredients, these taste really yummy. Couldn't tell them apart from the non vegan cakes!
D. C.
Had high hopes for my first visit as with the oldies. Went in on a weekend morning and was busy which was fine. However the service was not at it's best. Was advised they were short staffed but it could have been better still. The vibe and ambience of the place was off that day, staff were a bit short with their responses and it was not the best brunch. Doubt if I would go.in again to be proven wrong. Once is truly enough
R. M.
Really nice selection of dishes and pastries with big sized coffee mugs just the way I like! Tables a bit too close to each other though so can be a little awkward sometimes when the place is full
J. M.
Friendly staff, dont think it's been open that long so i guess the staff are getting to grips with the job. More than made up with all the staff being engaging and interested in ensuring i was happy.
Good coffee and a delicious tart. So it gets a thumbs up from me.
I. G.
Lovely cakes, good service but teapot could have used another teabag. 3 stars due to cost. 3 slices of cake, 2 teas and a coffee £22.50! Are you serious? Be warned.
G. G.
Brilliant food and pastries. Many vegan options!
E. (.
Great brioche sandwich and juice, the service is a bit slow. The cupcakes look very tasty too. Recommend this café if you are near area
m. t. b.
I order and pay a prosecco and take a seat. After five min the waitress come to tell me she had mistaken and that I had to order some food because prosecco only goes with food. But that unfortunately the kitchen is closed and I could have some potatoes. I say I don’t want to eat potatos, So they refund me and I leave. I really didnt like my experience but after my complain I received a very very good customer service so to be fair I have decided to raise the stars. Thanks Lola
G. P. É.
Lola's is a magnificent bakery with lots of options of well made cakes, sandwiches, pastries and drinks. All made with fresh, and most of times organic ingredients for all types of tastes; including vegans.
R. B.
The place is nice, the food and the coffee is OK, nothing spectacular but a bit pricey. The service is just one of the slowest and less professional I have ever seen in a coffee shop. Don't get me wrong, the employees are very friendly and helpful and they try to do their best but the lack of a proper training and a good organisation is clear.
K. D.
Lovely luxury cafe very close to West Hampstead's train stations. Relaxed atmosphere, laid back service and beautiful pastries & gourmet sandwiches.
P. P. (.
Fantastic place where you can find anything for any time! The brunch is a very classic but there's also a fanstic pudding and cupcakes!
D. S.
Delicious cakes!
Very safe with only 2 customers permitted at a time.
Excellent customer service 👏 👌 👍
m.
On my last visit I actually had a very enjoyable breakfast and the staff very accommodating especially Victoria. Unfortunately the Wi-Fi was playing up and having a lot of difficulties. B4 I knew it one star and no comments had been posted. Would have rectified the mistake but couldn't get connection. Anyway would definitely recommend having breakfast here.
C. L.
Vegan chocolate fudge cake. It's sensational! Good range of light breakfasts and brunches too. Plus a few lunch-ish type things. Great coffee, cosy interior.
N. M.
Long queues and seating a bit cramped but on the whole great food and service. Give the veggie sausages a miss, bland and leaves aftertaste.
C. C.
I absolutely adore this place. The wait staff are friendly and polite, the food is melt-in-your-mouth good and the menu has something for everyone: gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, etc. Love it!

Delicious breakfast and cakes. Would recommend
N. R.
nice service, good baking products, food and coffee
L. L. B.
Really good coffee, good service, and the pastries were great!
A. P.
The cafe is very nice and cosy. The cakes are well cooked but sometimes a bit too sweet and they are a bit expensive. The staff is friendly.
D. K.
Good place for breakfast - the full english is very good and they serve excellent coffee. We had no issues getting a table for 2 at 9:30 (on a Sunday morning) but it did get very busy around 10:30/11ish - lots of people were waiting for tables by this point! Enjoyed it though, would go back.
G. R.
Delicious cakes and tea. Had breakfast with family and really enjoyed it. The French toast was delicious too!
N. M.
Long queues and seating a bit cramped but on the whole great food and service. Give the veggie sausages a miss, bland and leaves aftertaste.
G. T.
Excellent. The menu is great for gluten and dairy free people. Highly recommended the bullet proof coffee. Easy to find, just past Tesco on the high street just a few hundred yards from the tube.
J. M.
Friendly staff, dont think it's been open that long so i guess the staff are getting to grips with the job. More than made up with all the staff being engaging and interested in ensuring i was happy. …
J. T.
Amazing place where you can enjoy some lovely cakes / deserts with a nice cup of tea or coffee. Would recommend it for anyone looking for a cozy afternoon break

Nice breakfast selection, including a delicious vegetarian option. Friendly, efficient service. Coffee and tea anyway you like it. Highly recommended.
V. D.
The organic smoothie is nice, but be careful, the prices on the boards are misleading. It says £4.50, but they charge £4.95 if you stay and another £2 for service... And of course they only tell you when you finished.
F. D.
The food is my favorite, very delicious soup but I give it a three star because the staff aren’t very friendly.
M. C.
Whether for scrambled eggs or red velvet cupcakes, this place is a warm favourite

Lovely cafe for breakfast or brunch. Has vegan options, for cakes as well. Service was fast and friendly
S. F.
Easy place for gluten free people like me but a bit overpriced and service should be seriously improved. Avoid the smoothies, they're not made in front of you but kept in a carafe.
M. Y.
Lovely cupcakes and other pastries as you'd expect from Lola's. The service could be better, hence had to knock off 1 star.
G. R.
This place is great. Two thumbs up.
C. M.
Lovely place in a good location, presentation and looks are great, but quality and tase not always to match, coffee is average.
N. G.
Great service, great vibe, great coffee and great food. Love the vegan options and the oatly milk. Staff are lovely and great value for money.

The food and baked goods are very good. I’m disappointed that their takeaway food is often in plastic packaging, otherwise would be 5 stars.
A. R.
It's a nice little place with lovely staff but as with other Lola's branches, the cupcakes are too dry.
G. R.
Delicious cakes and tea. Had breakfast with family and really enjoyed it. The French toast was delicious too!
