Come for the all-day room; the coffee is better than the cocktail menu implies. Worth knowing about if you're in Covent Garden.

The coffee is the best part of a room that doesn't lead with coffee.

Kiss the Hippo Coffee Covent Garden★★★ Purist

Kiss the Hippo roasts its own coffee, and the Covent Garden baristas will talk you out of the house blend and into a single origin before you've decided what you want.

WatchHouse Covent Garden★★★ Purist

WatchHouse roasts its own coffee at a dedicated South London facility, and this Covent Garden room serves it as single origins with a tasting card on every cup.

Monmouth Coffee Company★★★ Purist

The roastery that set London's specialty coffee standard, still pulling a queue down a Covent Garden side street decades on. Order at the counter and you'll get the producer's name along with your cup.
