As good as their coffee and hot chocolate tastes, their pasta and pizzas are not as great. They also force you down to a tip by manually writing service charges on the receipt which is not very legit if you asl me. That said their service is good but their food needs improvement. Some of their veg pizzas only come with cheese and Raw leaves as a top up to the pizza. Avoid them.

My favourite cafe in Canary Wharf hands down! Though Taylor St also has a pretty good cappuccino, I prefer the more robust coffee taste of Brera's which is a great morning pick me up. Not to mention all the great food they serve - whether it's the cookies or panini/pizza. As someone from Portugal I also really appreciate that they have "Bolos de Arroz" and "Pasteis de Nata". Plus they often have free samples out which has many times made me come back to get a full sized treat.
Only negative in my opinion is the service which is often a little disorganised, sometimes bordering on rude when it's really busy.

There are 3 Brera locations in Canary Wharf and due to my husbands obsession with their delicious coffee (he says they are hands down the best) then we will always gravitate towards Brera over any of the other numerous coffee shops dotted around the Wharf.
Had a slight communication break down today as we prefer our coffee served in the paper to go cups and yet were given the large mugs and long spoon (Brera trademark) Our latte wasn't as hot as it usually is, but service at this location was much quicker than at the other two. It seems this location is a little hidden in the mall, although it has by far the largest seating area.
We didn't have time for any food today, although the muffins are very tempting. In fact, they have numerous items on display that look yummy but oh so many calories! We do love their panini and baguettes as they always look so inviting and taste very fresh.
Quite and comfortable place for great coffee. Recommended if you need a break from a long day at the desk. The cakes and sweets are also not bad, although you may wish to gorge on the nearby Pauls if you are seeking a more refined snack.
Few visiting canary wharf would not have walked past it but rarely would have sat to have a drink or coffee. What a pity because it surely is a hidden gem!
And why? You will most likely always find a couch which in canary wharf is quiet an exception where people jostle for space in packed pubs. It has happy hours from 6-7 each day which is surely unheard of in canary wharf. It is nice and warm and indoors - a deal breaker in winter months. Serving time for a drink is less than 5 min. And last but not the least it has a nice vantage point with view of the "food court" of jubilee place. I am sure it is the closest pub from jubilee line and would beat even all bar one.
Where it fails is the limited starter/ snack menu. The only option is slices of pizza. The dining menu is good but I doubt you will be dinning here given the numerous options downstairs.
I would highly recommend this place if you haven't been here.
What a delicious selection of cakes and lovely staff, a ready smile and a torta di latte which was heavenly.
The sponge was delicate, soft, met in the mouth with a delicious accompaniment of milk cream, so light and refreshing, it hit just the right spot
Iced caffe latte , really nice, such a lovely blend and nice coffee bean.
Clean, tidy, reserved place.
Wonderful focaccia sandwiches, such delicious fillings, it's a meal in its own right. Wonderful location too in a beautiful park. Definitely recommend!
it is an ultimate place to hangout with your friends and family. quality of food and service is awesome with nice interior.
Cafe Brera is one of the few gems in canary wharf area. The service is great and the panini selection really is the reason you keep coming back. A tip to the team at Brera - you need to improve your coffee as it is a bit bland.
I will be back.
Perfect drinks. And furthermore waitress Hemel gave us a very professional service. Well done guy's. 👏
Nice place to have your first coffee in the morning.

Friendly staff, nice customer service!!!
the sheesha was really good and loved the vibe with food
The place with the tastiest almond croissants I have ever tried in London! Coffee is well made. I saw some reviews that people could wait for a long time to be served... Well, it’s really delicious place so there are a lot of people. Be patient :)
Great location for people watching and a coffee. Being on a balcony gives you a bit of a break from the mayhem from below. The sky windows makes you not feel deep underground even though you are. Great selection of foods and drinks. Really speedy and professional service. Extensive selection of food, which is freshly prepared and quickly served.
Simply the best in Canary Wharf! Feels like a warm cuddle ❤️
This place is such a cute cafe! try the honeycomb cake you won't regret it. I'm not even a cake person but that cake oh my god was so freaking nice. It's canary wharf so prices are £££ but the cake was worth it. to be honest my sister usually pays so probably why the cake tasted even more immaculate lol.
Good place for a quick lunch! Nice choice of salads and hot food.
