Reasonable priced and home-run brunch coffee spot. Portions are generous and service is good. Taste wise they are ok but the flat white we had was excellent, better then lots of chain ones, so would recommend the coffee.
Nice quaint cafe, a great find on a spontaneous day out to Twickenham.
Arrived late afternoon just before 4pm, it was virtually empty, having missed the earlier brunch and lunch crowd. None the less, Saba, the owner, was welcoming and super friendly.
I had a genourously sized oat milk ginger latte served in a large decorative tea cup.
Very pronounced ginger spice notes, alongside an intetesting subtle warming blend of Cardamom, Coriander, Clove, Pepper, and Cinnamon.
I had the Mexican Open Toast Benedict, which came nicely presented, 2 perfectly poached eggs, plenty of hollandaise, avocado, and tomato salsa. The Greek yoghurt helped to dampen the punch from the green chilies. The small, lightly dressed side salad with scattering of toasted almonds and pomegranate seeds was also a refreshing accomplishment. A lot of flavours bouncing around my palate (incl. The spiced latte), but overall, a pleasant flavorsome dish.
Interesting talking with Saba afterwards about the origins of the variety of organic coffees and teas avaiable and sold online (Lifetone) Equally interesting hearing about the ethical and social initiatives that support the communities who he works with to harvest and produce these products. I will be looking online to purchase some Lifetone products.
I purchased a vegan cinnamon bun to go. Made with coconut treacle and extra sprinkle of cinnamon on top, it wasn't overly sweet and had a nice texture.
I was also given a complimentary chocolate croissant 😀
I will pass by again when I next head to Twickenham & Richmond. Hope to get there early enough next time to try one of the delicious sounding smoothies and a fresh slice of cake. Recommended.
Great coffee shop, staff are friendly and welcoming great food and drinks with reasonable prices would definitely, Healthy of sandwich choices and Juices.
I would recommend SOUL👌
