I'm not from this area, and I was looking for a coffee place and a little snack in the morning. I came across this place - and I'm glad I did.
Love the openness of the shop! 👏🏼 to the designer!
The coffee (flat white) was beautiful, and so was the carrot cake slice! As you can see in the pic, I couldn't resist eating a piece of it before taking the pic - no regrets. It was delicious, hit the spot, and can assure you no crumbs were left behind.
Finally, the staff member was friendly and really welcoming.
Great start to my morning. Thank you.
Outstanding, mellow coffee made with love and care by the friendly owner. The best coffee I've ever tasted—my only complaint is that it's ruined me for other coffees! Nothing else compares with it.
Great smoothies too, all with natural fruity ingredients, just right for hot weather, or when I'm not in the mood for caffeine.
Whether I'm getting takeaway or sitting down inside, it's a delightful experience going to Velvet (now with the name Eleni's, and a few doors up the Archway Road from the original Velvet but with the same owner). Peter, the proprietor, takes a personal interest and pride in every aspect of the café and it's clearly a labour of love for him. And his happy 'regulars' obviously love it too. An easy 5 stars.
Great coffee. Rare to find a such a good coffee! Friendly owner, clearly well loved by locals and regulars.
