Unique coffee experience in Richmond

“Very friendly, smiley service. Great coffee and pastries. Haven’t tried the food yet, that pleasure yet to come. Great outdoor seating area. Love it.”

“Excellent specialty coffee, croissants and vic sponge are out of this world!!!!”

“Lovely little jewel of a cinema tucked off the centre of Richmond. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely visit again in the near future.”

“The best coffee in town! No one can beat it! Thank you to the staff and managers, really good atmosphere ♥️”

“Really nice food and beautiful place. Very good prices for simple but tasty dishes at the teahouse. Service a bit confuse but worth.”

“Very good coffee, amazing latte art, and loads of natural gases in the coffee coming through as you can see in the photo. Food was simple but decent.”

“Beautiful location and very well maintained nursery. The afternoon tea was excellent, we multiple teas, though the best thing was the pastries themselves - and there’s tonnes of them. The scones are to die for and are very filling. Generous portions.”

“Had frequently cycled past on our way to Richmond Park, it's too soon for a coffee stop, until today. We'd cycled around 30 miles up & down the hills of Richmond Park, on our way to completing the Festive 500, and needed a break. Could do with some bike parking nearby, but the coffees and cakes were much appreciated on a cool Boxing Day lunchtime.”

“Always made to feel welcome in this wonderful place. Delicious home-cooked food in an idyllic riverside location. Very casual and relaxed.”

“A beautiful place with amazing food and lovely servers. A warm and friendly restaurant with attentive and sweet hosts. Would most definitely recommend and will return.”

“Excellent coffee and cakes! Staff members are very friendly and nice too. Definitely will come back!”

“It’s always nice to discover cafes where the staff look excited and passionate about what they are doing. It certainly reflected in the coffee which was outstanding. We tried a slice of the orange and almond cake too which we will be coming back for. Anyone who enjoys great coffee definitely won’t be disappointed.”

“We had a brunch there and we really enjoyed it very much. Very delicious food and very nice service. The staff are super friendly and the environment is lovely. We'll go back for sure.”

“Lovely spot for a coffee and cake – but it’s more than a café stop. They have books for you to read! This place provides a soothing sanctuary of calm for those looking for a place of rest and reflection. And it’s just yards away from Kew station. Serves fantastic coffee. Inexpensive. We love their incredibly tasty food, such a huge array of vegetarian and vegan options. Nice friendly atmosphere. Yes go browse the shelves or your newly-purchased reads while you sip a latte and chat with the owners about their most highly-recommended books of the moment. Kew Bookshop is just opposite.”

“Absolutely loved this place. The pancakes were delicious and the fact that they could make them dairy free was awesome. Coffee was great, the staff were very friendly and quick, all in all a great experience.”

“Great friendly service, the homemade cakes are awesome, but so are the waffles and breakfasts!”

“Our favourite spot in Putney. Having tried all of the coffee bars in Putney this is our absolute favourite. The coffee shots are always consistent and amazing quality - we are those people who will walk 30 mins to get an amazing cup of coffee and we couldn’t be happier to have found Monies on Upper Richmond Road. Staff are always so friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is so warm and the decor well designed. Having nailed the coffee they now do cheese and charcuterie boards on a fri and sat evening. You must go!! Each cheese is carefully hand selected from Borough Market, the meats are insane, they use amazing quality products from artisan producers and you can really taste the difference. A great selection of drinks too - ranging from wine to espresso martinis.”

“Nice relax cafe with outdoor and indoor seating and vegan options! Great toasties and lattes”

“Fantastic range of sandwiches & sweet treats. Delicious coffee too :) Staff are very attentive & super welcoming. The perfect place to visit for brunch.”

“Absolutely loved this place. Authentic Turkish dishes cooked out on the open grill. Extensive menu with all the classics, baba ganoush, falafels and tons of Shish kebab grilled meats. Starters are around £8, mains and wine (bottle) are around £20 each. Ask about Turkish wines which are not on the menu. Great, fast service. 12.5% service charge is automatically added to your bill. Cozy atmosphere!”

“The eggs benedict was wonderful, coffees were perfect and service was brilliant everything you want in a morning Cafe.”

“Very good food, nice location and amazing customer service. I highly recommend.”

“We travelled down here today from Esher so my son could try the açaí bowl. They were about to close but stayed open for us, which was very nice. My son said the açaí bowl was excellent.”

“Friendly service, brilliant food. They accommodate your requests. Really enjoyed fresh, nicely prepared food. Definitely coming back.”

“My goodness, the food here is devine! Atmosphere - cute, could be romantic if you want it to be. There is an 'Italian home' look and feel to the place, with clothes hanging above you. Unusual, but unique. My OCD just hopes dust from the clothes don't fall on the food. The type of customers we saw whilst we were there consisted of couples and families, so expect a child or two making some noise. It wasn't to the point of being disturbing. Food - scrumptious! We ordered a starter, which was prawns in a tomato sauce with bread. I could've eaten that all night, so delicious. I then ordered a pasta with basil and cod, this isn't the actual name of the meal but that's what it consisted of. It was absolutely delicious. My friend ordered the lobster, she is a chef and rated it quite high, with the only complaint being that the lobster was a tad over cooked. We also tried their best wine, not my favourite, it was a little watery. The water is bottled spring water. The chilli oil is a huge glass with a mixture of peppers in oil, felt very home made, adding to the atmosphere. Service - great. The lady serving us was good, not going above and beyond but at the same time didn't need to. She was calm and helped with any info we required. The food arrived in good time too, I'd say it took about 10-15mins to arrive. I'll definitely be returning to this lovely place. 100% recommend it.”

“They are very good, like it how they help to choose even , great taste”

“A really great quality breakfast with quality ingredients. Very tasty. Breakfast comes with toast full English orange juice and coffee all for £8.95. no fuss and most importantly no grease.”

“This I think is how chinese food should be made. Simple looking but impeccable flavours. I’d come back very often. Very reasonable prices and accommodating service from the team. We ordered the Prawn Curry and Braised Pork. The taste of the curry is authentic and not too overpowering. The pork is so soft I did not even have to chew. Well sone!”

“My wife, son and mother-in-law visited this really pleasant little cafè today. A real gem. Great coffee and food with a nice family friendly atmosphere. All reasonably priced. We’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you.”
