I 💕 this place! Where do I start? Was it the delicious and unusual nectarine & ginger custard croissant—flaky, fresh, sweet, creamy & spicy? Was it the tasty and healthful aubergine and rocket (that’s eggplant and arugula for my fellow Yanks) open-faced sandwich? Was it the stoneware that I want to steal and use in my own home? Was it that perfect iced latte that was so good I had to order another as soon as I had the last sip? Was it the relaxed, polite service and the loyalty card that only requires 8 stamps before you get your freebie? I cannot believe this place isn’t mobbed all the time (another thing to love about it, by the way). I’m grateful that the room I booked for my 10-day stay in London is walking distance from this gem. My only complaint is that I won’t be able to come here anymore when I return to the States. Feel free to open another location there! 🤗

Very nice pastries and coffee!! Will definitely come back.
No wonder Pophams is so popular - the pastries were incredible! I went on a Sunday morning and the place was full with a queue to enter.
- I got the Feta & Tomato pastry and the cardamom bun. The layers on the pastry speak of the crispiness already.
- The pastries are served warm and super fresh. It was a delight - fresh and crisp.
- Cardamom bun was an interesting find. I love cardamom and I really liked this one.
- coffee was ok, nothing to speak highly of but the pastries were the real highlight.
- The decor is very pleasing with soothing colors and minimalist design.
- Service is friendly and quick.
Quite easily one of my favorite bakeries in London! Loved it totally.
So grateful that i have this gem in my neighbourhood! the staff is very friendly, the pastries & toasties are excellent quality and I really enjoyed the filter coffee as well. Can see myself coming here very often :)
Was hoping to get a loaf for dinner and arrived at 12pm on a Saturday to find out they only have croissants left. Ordered one and it’s not bad. But my hunt for load of bread had to continue..
The coffee was delicious but I was surprised to find the highly lauded Viennoisserie a bit tough and disappointing as did my table neighbors who bought one of nearly everything to try. It’s nevertheless lovely to sit at outside tables, and I almost left without realizing they have a very tasty home goods shop adjacent to the bakery with well chosen items for yourself and for gifts.
Had a wonderful Sunday morning experience. Highly recommend their Toasties, so filling, tasty, and very worth the £8-8.50 (charred leek one especially), best in London. Chocolate hazelnut king pastry a little steep at £6 but a fantastic once in a while treat as it was so delicious and texturally perfect.
Amazing place for a coffee meet with friends on a weekend morning. Buzzing with young crowd, amazing coffee and bakery items. Canal walk is just a half mile away for a nice stroll. Our favourite place.
I’m big on reviews and as a huge, and very picky, foodie…I can say it’s a serious mistake if you don’t visit. It’s so good, I’d come even if I were insulted by the staff while eating. Luckily, they’re awesome and the food is just laughable good. At least get the Maple and Bacon pastry. Sweet (not overly!), slightly salty, crispy, flaky and everything you want in a pastry.
Oh and unexpectedly, the coffee was excellent too! High marks on both their cortado and flat white.
Thanks guys!

I recently visited Pophams coffee shop that had a lovely outside area, which made for a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the nice weather. While we ordered an extra shot oat latte hoping for a strong kick to start my day, unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. It seems that the coffee beans they used might not have been the strongest, so if you're a fan of a bold and robust coffee, this might not be the place for you.
Despite my coffee not being as strong as I'd hoped, the overall experience was still quite enjoyable. The outside area was cozy and charming, providing a welcoming atmosphere to sit and catch up with a friend or read a book while sipping on your coffee. The shop also had some visually appealing pastries on display that I'm sure would have been delicious, although I didn't get a chance to try them myself. They were located just in front of the till on the open tray, I didn’t feel the hygiene since so many people give order and make payment next to them.
Overall, if you're looking for a relaxed and cozy atmosphere to enjoy a casual coffee with friends, this coffee shop could be a great choice. However, if you're looking for a strong and robust coffee, you might want to look elsewhere.
everything looked so good i wanted one of each, will definitely have to come back!!! there was a power outage so all the goods were outside but the team were calm and collected despite this! we had the thyme and olive twist, and special vanilla cream bun which were both delicious!
superb place! The most puffy and crunchy ones I've tried so far. Excellent & attentive staff + very efficient ordering
Probably the only downside is lack of place to wash hands or hand sanitiser
