London drinking culture in Surbiton

“The BEST coffee in Surbiton. I would even say it's one of the best places for coffee in London and I have tried a lot of coffee! It's consistently good too which is a good thing considering I have served by a few different people, milk not burnt, not too hot etc. The cinnamon buns are really good and I like how they have a good range of Swedish delicacies - not that I have tried many of them as I keep on going back for those damn cinnamon buns....”

“Absolutely adore Kokoro ever since I moved to Kingston a few years ago. They’ve recently opened up shop in Surbiton and I’m so glad they have as I live locally and simply cannot fault these guys. The food is fresh, absolutely delicious and the portion size is always generous. They are consistently great with both hot dishes & cold foods (sushi / salads) and 100% worth every penny. It’s a great lunch time spot with plenty of different options to choose from as well as being pretty affordable for a “meal out”. I recently ordered a sushi party platter* for my household for my birthday and it was out of this world! Will continue to eat at Kokoro Surbiton and would encourage anyone who passes by or lives in the area to try their food ASAP! * I specifically requested for salmon sashimi but their original platter includes both Salmon & Tuna!”

“Welcoming hot tea with beautiful flower was absolutely pleasure to start dining. All plates were displayed gorgeous and the taste is even better. I am a serious sashimi & sushi fan and haven’t had much places like Sushi Hero in London where providing this high quality of tuna sashimi as you can tell by freshness. It just melt in your mouth. Other hot dishes were omg level of its taste!!!! Staff were so warm & friendly thank you and I am definitely visiting again soon!”

“Wow. What a wonderful concept. Just like having a personal chef ... Delicious food in gorgeous, tiny, bijou designer setting. Chef Giulio excels and pretty much cooks to order and in your time frame; and lovely Luisa is his perfect front of house. Extensive and unusual wine list Nowhere like it. A must do experience. Highly recommended.”

“We had a large breakfast and added a few bits. Was a nice cafe breakfast. The lady serving us was really nice too”

“The best independent coffee shop you’ll find in south west london. Decor, coffee, food and service are all on point. Opened up during the pandemic and has thrived because it’s just fabulous.”

“Very good food - excellent quick service. Well done to the team.”

“Lovely experience. I usually go in there sometimes to get a hot drink with my mum or my friends and when I go in there, I always see this barista; I think he said his name was Abraham. He was so nice to talk to and very friendly. He works very hard. You guys are lucky to have him!”

“Had a great experience here. Dale's (the manager) service was excellent. He was highly accommodating with sorting out breakfast, the Wifi connection and finding a place for me to work after I checked out. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel based on its service and location.”

“Lovely little cafe & amazing customer service! Can’t recommend enough ✨”
