I like it!. I have been going to Munson’s for maybe 2 years now, or so, regularly. It’s a lovely place with very well tasting coffee, very relaxed, seating outside, on the sunny side of the road. Cakes and (hot or cold) sandwiches are nice, and when you eat in you get a bit of salad with it as well. So have been for a few lunches too. Help yourself to tab water flavoured with slices of orange or lemon. As you may have noticed, I in no way have shared any similar bad experiences as other note, so I’d honestly recommend the place. Or maybe I shouldn’t and keep it for myself. 🙂
Lovely Place! Lovely Staff!. This is a lovely place with pleasant, friendly staff. This place is clean, quiet and very comfortable. I felt I had to write this in response to all the negative comments I had read about the place. The people who wrote them sound as rude and unfriendly as they accuse the staff of being. I have been several times and have always felt welcome.
I have never written an online review before, however the service I received today in Munson’s was so poor that I felt compelled to warn people off giving this place anymore business.If you go after midday there is a very poor selection of food. The staff are unhelpful and don’t seem to understand the concept of customer service. I waited 20 mins for a takeaway coffee.Worst of all, the man who appears to be the owner is arrogant and rude. He actively seeks to make his customers feel unwelcome and intimidated. I’m surprised this place this still open given how bad these reviews are, but assume it is purely down to being the only coffee house in that area. I hope a professional who actually knows something about catering and customer service comes along and opens up close by so that people aren’t forced to give these people business.Finally, their arrogantly call themselves an San Fransisco style coffee shop. They are not. They are a bog standard, below par cafe with no charisma or style.
Awful service. I’m not surprised that it has so many negative reviews. I’ve been in twice and that’s two times too many.
Avoid this awful place!. Very Rude! The main guy who runs this place is incredibly unpleasant. I would never have believed that buying a cup of coffee could be a humiliating experience but he did his best to make it so. I have heard bad things from other people about the service at Munson’s subsequently – unfortunately they currently have very little competition but I won’t be going back.
Good Food. We are frequently in this area for London College of Music meetings at UWL. It has always been difficult to find a decent cafe nearby. Munson’s fits the bill. I had one of the best bowls of carrot & coriander soup I’ve ever had with a lovely pot of butter & great chunk of bread. Ok – it’s a tad overpriced but I don’t mind for good food. My service was quick and the tea was also good. Many LCM workers have arranged to meet here again for lunch in February.! Thank you Munson’s!
Terrible, terrible, terrible. This cafe is a joke, and I can’t see why some people love it so much. I’ve walked past it many times and this morning I sat down in one of the outside tables to wait for service. It was a quiet Monday morning with three other tables occupied, and four servers standing behind the counter looking bored. As soon as I sat down a waitress came out to collect cups from the table beside me, looked at me, gave me no greeting and walked off. I assumed she had gone to get her pen and pad to take my order, but instead all four servers watched me sit there for about ten minutes. Obviously there is no table service, but as there was no sign to say this, couldn’t one of the staff have come over and offered up this information instead of standing there watching me wait? If it had been jam-packed I’d (maybe) understand but the place was very empty. After ten minutes I got up and as I was walking off past one of the tables a man who I think is the manager was clearing some plates. I asked him if there was table service and he said no. I shrugged and went to walk off, and he said gruffly, ‘well what do you want?’, at which point I said I’d go and spend my money in a cafe that actually has service.There is absolutely no reason why a cafe like this can’t have table service, especially when there are five other places within a five minute walk, who are actually happy to have your business and also take cards (I can’t take businesses that don’t take cards seriously). These jokers need to wake up and learn about a little thing called customer service.
