Went to their cafe in Covent Garden. Ordered a small latte and watched the barista preparing the coffee. The way they made the coffee was very precise and clean. Coffee was very nice, the chocolate flavour of the Brazilian beans could be tasted and love how ‘creamy’ the latte was. Good coffee = good mood.
I am a caffeine fiend and find it very important to source cafes with good coffees, good service and good ambience. I look for a nice drink, yes, but also somewhere that is appropriate for both a drink as well as a catch up with a friend.Working only a stone’s throw from the Espresso Room, I decided to check it out and was curious mainly due to the stories about the size of it; it is reputed to be one of the smallest coffee shops worth visiting, and it was indeed just that!Very tiny with simple wood decor and some indoor and outdoor seating, it is literally a room in which two friendly, hipster guys created that fluffy, almost sweet coffee that is often found in independent coffee shops around East London, heated to the right temperature and served with a smile.There’s a limited supply of sandwiches and sweet treats available, made fresh daily. There are no toilet facilities so it is a good place just to stop off and sip foamy, fresh caffeine whilst passing, rather than lounging there for half a day on your laptop; save the space-hogging for Starbucks!Cute staff, very thick and yummy coffee with real flavour and location wise, nice for a stop off but not ideal for a long sitaround. Worth a try for a coffee hit! londonismyplayground.wordpress.com
The espresso room, is literally just that, actually maybe more a cupboard. Located just opposite Great Ormond Street Hospital, space is clearly a commodity in this part of Bloomsbury. But that hasn’t detered them from making one of the best coffees in London. Like a lot of independants they serve Square Mile, but for those in the know, good beans is only part of the equation to serve great quality. Time again though they serve consistently good flat whites. The staff here are really friendly as well without pretense, as every coffee shop should be, and they certainly know their stuff, especially when recommending me the virtues of an aeropress! foodoverlondon.com
