Wow😄😄😄just had scrambled egg on toast with bacon. Best ever. Cappuccino to follow was super. Great start🌈 on a 🌧day. Many thanks David
In the middle of a nice area, cozy small cafe , with phenomenal coffee and breakfast , the brunch there is out of the world we had the chili eggs breakfast , their most famous is the poached special (haven't tried but seen ppl order it ), they have sweets (bites) and pastries. It's not the best place for working with laptops but you can read, for example, definitely a gem worth visiting .
Great coffee but the main event is the almond croissant which is hands down the best almond croissant I have EVER had. The pretzel bun sausage and egg sandwich is really great too. Always fast and friendly service.
I’m such a big fan of Poached! Their coffee is delicious, they’re really friendly and everything I’ve ever eaten here had been delicious. Special shout-out to the almond croissants they sell and today I tried a pretzel bun - they have meaty, veggie and vegan options to choose from - which was just perfect. A cosy, small coffee shop with about 4 tables to sit-in, a loo or very conveniently located for the train station. A Beckenham gem!
Always a good idea to stop off for brunch or coffee at poached, if you're lucky enough to get a table! Highly recommend the sweetcorn fritters - DELISH
Fresh and tasty food. Great for the price. Cozy environment, although not too big so be prepared to wait or get takeaway. Friendly staff and near high street.
Had poached eggs with a side of bacon from Deliveroo. Good quality, really very good indeed, delicious. Bit pricey though.
Visited the shop, prices more reasonable, food and coffee excellent, highly recommended.
I know the name suggests eggs any way however, I had pancakes which were filling and delicious. My husband had scrambled eggs which he thoroughly enjoyed. Everything tasted fresh and good quality. Will definitely be visiting again. They need a bigger space as they have a great product.
Clever little menu. Once you come to terms that the portions are always going to be on the smaller side, you'll want to return for the pretzel buns and homemade chilli jam. The coffee isn't to my taste, but as mentioned, I came for the pretzel buns and homemade chilli jam (bottles of it can be bought seperately).
Review for Poached Coffee Shop:
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Poached Coffee Shop, and I must say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere of the place was warm and inviting, with a cozy interior that made me feel right at home. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, setting the perfect mood for a relaxing coffee break.
One of the highlights of my visit was the exceptional service provided by Sara and Rachel. From the moment I walked in, they greeted me with genuine smiles and a friendly attitude. Their knowledge of the coffee menu was impressive, and they were more than willing to offer recommendations based on my preferences. Their passion for coffee was evident, and it added an extra layer of enjoyment to my overall experience.
Now, let's talk about the coffee itself. It was undoubtedly one of the best cups of coffee I've had in a long time. The baristas at Poached Coffee Shop truly know their craft. The beans were clearly of high quality, and the brewing process was done with precision, resulting in a rich and flavorful cup that was simply heavenly. Whether you prefer a classic espresso or a fancy latte with intricate latte art, they have it all covered.
Beyond the coffee, the menu also offered an array of delicious treats that complemented the beverages perfectly. I couldn't resist trying some of their freshly baked pastries, and they did not disappoint. The pastries were fresh, flaky, and packed with delicious fillings, making them an excellent accompaniment to my coffee.
The ambiance at Poached Coffee Shop was perfect for both catching up with friends or enjoying some peaceful me-time. The seating arrangements were comfortable, and the soft background music added to the overall charm of the place.
In conclusion, I highly recommend Poached Coffee Shop to all coffee enthusiasts and anyone looking for a delightful café experience. The combination of great coffee, delectable pastries, and the exceptional service provided by Sara and Rachel makes this place stand out. I'm looking forward to my next visit to Poached Coffee Shop to indulge in their coffee and immerse myself in the welcoming atmosphere once again.
Just had a delicious scrambled egg on toast with salmon, lovely ingredients and cooked perfectly. Coffee is fab and all the staff are friendly and happy😊
Met up with my brother-in-law for breakfast; I can't speak for them, but I had the poached special w/ chilli jam instead of brown sauce & a side of garlic mushrooms. All the individual elements were really well cooked & went together perfectly - one thing I'd recommend though: if you want your eggs runny, make sure to ask! In hindsight, there was plenty to fill me up without adding a side of mushrooms, which nontheless were cooked exactly as they should be (which is *not* a soggy mess!) I ordered a black americano, and you can tell that the beans weren't burnt (as opposed to some coffee chains (Costa)) and of a good quality as the entirety had a velvety taste to it.
It's a perfect place for cute little get-togethers with a friend or, at a stretch, two - don't expect a group breakfast happening here as the space just won't allow for it. The place had seven people in it, including us, and it was basically full, but *definitely* check them out. The staff are friendly as can be and *will* deliver a top service.
Best iced latte I’ve tasted (I’ve had a few!) and the staff are absolutely lovely 😊
Lovely cafe, the menu is simple but impressive, with all elements of it (down to the sauces) brilliantly sourced or homemade. Poached eggs excellent. The food is definitely worth the wait, but I hope they get a chance to expand as it is quite tight inside. Prices reasonable for the quality.
First time visit, very intimate, awesome food, great value for money. Highly recommended if you are in Beckenham or travelling through. 5 ⭐️
Great coffee and the food is amazing. Lovely matcha latte as well. The staff are always friendly and its a small place but has a nice vibe.
Hip cafe that serves coffee, tea and juices. They also do healthy breakfast with a couple of naughty options. I chose one of the smaller dishes; scrambled egg with toast. Simple, not heavy with a light oil/butter on the toast. I also had a pot of apple and cinnamon tea (tea pigs) which was enjoyable.
Poached has always been a solid brunch breakfast location for me. Absolutely delicious combos that you'll enjoy. It's always a little tight on space, but keeps it cozy. Solid coffees, always enjoy a good flat white.
Oh yeah, great eggs 😁
