A lovely independent cafe with good coffee and food, and free WiFi.
I just spent nearly 5 hours hanging out here while my car was being serviced/MoT'd across the road. This is something I have done on two previous occasions over the last 3 years. Each time I have enjoyed the food, drink, service and atmosphere here.
On this occasion I had two perfectly poached eggs and two very tasty sausages on toast with good, strong, tasty coffee for my breakfast. I was able to hang out, having the occasional drink, working on my laptop with their fast, and free, wi-fi. I saw plenty of places to plug in and recharge if needed too.
I ended up having lunch here as well, soup of the day, which was spicy lentil, absolutely delicious, and perfect for a cold, wet, winter's day.
The fact that this lovely independent cafe is here, will be a key factor in choosing the next place I go for work on the car, and although I don't live especially close I will definitely pop in if in the area.
Love this place! Unique atmosphere and unique food and very delicious food.
A pretty little gem in a town that's becoming more and more gentrified...
I had a Chai Latte and Carrot Cake and I have to say the presentation was beautiful and the taste of both was spot on 😊 You could clearly see that care was taken when preparing and that's not what you generally find with the mainstream coffee chains!
And yes, they still accept cash - perfect!
I had a few hours to kill and very glad I went to Bella Art Caffe. The staff are very friendly, excellent coffee and delicious food. The atmosphere was nice and I was able to do a few hours work. Thank you
A lovely friendly cafe with good food well priced. Everyone receives a warm welcome and the staff are very accommodating
I come here every week whilst my puppy has hydrotherapy next door, such a lovely cafe. Have had the full english, Buddha bowls (if I’m remembering the name correctly) and also the jacket potatoes. They also have paninis. Doggy friendly as well and the ladies that work here are always cheerful. The food is made fresh and is so good! There is something for everyone. The photo is my of my fav drink they do - chai latte!
Really decent place to grab a quick bite with a lovely decor plenty of space (no crammed in chairs or tables) and a fun quirky atmosphere, I recommend the salads or the baguette's if your in for lunch, or a good book and some great coffee if your there to relax.
Dropped in for breakfast whilst bike being serviced at Dobles.Excellent breakfast served in a large metal skillet ,lovely latte x2 and fresh orange juice perfect,will be coming back.
A little hidden gem in Coulsdon. I've visited this cafe many times now and I'm never disappointed. Food is amazing, iced Mochas are to die for and the staff are friendly and cannot do enough. I've also used this cafe to hold meetings. This is a friendly welcoming cafe and an asset to Coulsdon and the community.
I’ve been going here for years, with my kids, friends, on my own & for ‘business’ meetings as groups. Always great service & delicious food & drinks. Only place I know of in Coulsdon to do a great Chai Latte and also jacket potatoes 😀
This little cafe has stolen my heart ❤
Sooo good espresso and this pistachio cake just amazing 😻
Nice enough. Food was fine, coffee was OK, but not that strong. Friendky staff who served us quickly. Some sofas inside, but other seating at metal tables, which felt a bit cold this time of year. Cakes looked nice but didn't try them!
This IS a complaint, however the Cafe deservess 5 stars for previous visits in the past. It's not unusual for a cafe to ask customers to refrain from using other brands in their premises, however there are some scenarios where exceptions can be made. Today being Wednesday 24th August at 10:30am I met my colleague for catch up and to have breakfast. I've been before for meetings and always suggest Bella Art Caffè because of the lovely breakfast and chilled atmosphere. While looking at the menu I was told by a member of staff that I couldn't cosume my costa coffee, and would have to either throw it away or finish it outside. I assured her that i fully understood her request, however we were in the process of ordering breakfast with them and asked if she could make an exception or at least allow me to pour it into a mug as it was half full. She refused and made it clear that if I wasn't happy I could leave - which we did and spent our money else where, despite my colleague had already bought tea which she left behind.
I'm sure as we walked out the door, the member of staff thought she had won a battle, which hopefully has brightened up her day.
The same member of staff was lone working a while back and was rushed of her feet with orders. I remember waiting a while for my breakfast and didn't complain as I could see she was under pressure - the breakfast that day wasn't great but I made an exception given the situation!!
I wish you all the best Bella Art Cafe
Lovely place to chill with coffee and a pastry. Coffee is decent and the staff are super nice and efficient. You normally get a nice seat by a big window to watch nothing happening in Coulsdon!!
Just had a lovely breakfast .While we waited for our car be fix at Renault..Would highly recommend this cafe..Friendly lady who served us.. And will be back..
Lovely place and very friendly staff. It’s great to help support a local business so definitely check them out if you’re nearby.
