What a brilliant find! Had a lovely lunch today, best panini I've had for a long time, great value and the owner was a delight. Definitely worth visiting.
Delicious focaccia, panini and fruit smoothie. Warm and friendly host :)
Lovely staff and service, the chicken panini with red cabbage and cheese is soooo good, would definitely reorder! Also nice pistachio cannolis :) thank you
I spent all day hiding in the cafe from work. Working from there instead of the office. Found it easy and non hurried. The food, delicious and not expensive! The coffee, mmmmmm tasty. And it seems to have community feel to it, where people care for the place and the owners/staff in the café.
Great coffee, always service with a smile and a good range of wraps/paninis and sweet treats
Great place to eat , lovely terrace , very friendly guys will give a great service every time .Got to try the delicious canolies New merguez panini is a killer
This cafe is such a lovely spot with dedicated and friendly staff. The menu is packed with tasty options for both drinks and food. Can’t wait to try more of my favourites!!
An underrated gem in Streatham.Simple but delicious food at a decent price.Friendly owner and staff.It is small in space and can be too noisy for some people as it's alongside the busy road with constant traffic, but you cannot complain about the convenience given it's location.I do hope smokers who visit here can be more considerate of others around them and try not to smoke when many people are sitting and eating right next to their table.
