Lovely little cafe - a real find! We popped in for brunch as everywhere else was queuing, shut or ridiculously expensive and we were so glad we did! Lovely food (loads of choice, so we found it hard to choose), very reasonable prices, fab service and a great atmosphere :) we will definitely come back

Had a full English breakfast here that was okay, but I like that it’s independent. The milkshakes are great and my friends pancakes looked amazing, I had a bit of food envy! The pastries and cakes all look really yummy and we managed to get a table fairly quickly for a Sunday, we just had to wait on the sofa seats for about 10 mins first. There’s a no laptop policy on the weekend which I think is really good.

Good coffee. Warm friendly service. Pricing on menu looked fair and the breakfasts I could see looked and smelled GREAT! Just coffee today but will be eating here on next visit to Balham. Nice little spot.

Good workspace. Nice coffee. Quiet. Good for study or working from home. Awesome 25 pounds for unlimited coffee during the week option.

Excellent coffee, great weekend breakfasts, and delicious cake. The only thing I'd change about this fantastic cafe is the table layout, but everything else is absolutely perfect.

I really like this cafe! The atmosphere is nice and relaxing. The coffee is lush and the sourdough bread sandwiches are delicious! Try the ham one! Only reason I didn't give five stars is because the seating is a little cramped especially when it's busy.

An absolutely lovely place to enjoy a mocha and work on your laptop for an hour or two! The name does not lie--I was looking for an escape and was not disappointed. The grilled halloumi and mixed pepper sandwich was delicious as well! Great music too. Didn't even put my headphones in. :)

Love the cappuccino here, including the decaf which tastes great, and the brunches are yummy!
