[...] and a huge communal table full of drinkers sharing bread and jam from kilner jars. It’s been written about a lot and is pretty much the best coffee house in London and, finally, offers somewhere (albeit squashed) [...]

I went to Monmouth a couple of times. I would not say that it is the best coffee in London. For me, coffee bean which they brew and sell you is one thing; but the attitude of the people who sell the coffee to you is also important. I ended up there once when the shop was almost empty. They told me I could not have a capuccino and they were only serving filter coffee. My friend and I said it was fine even though I hate filter coffee. Ten minutes later, a lady came in and ordered a capuccino and got it! Clearly they did not run out of milk. I was so surprised that I did not say anything and just left and swore to myself I wouldn’t be bothered to go back there again. Milk Bar that uses coffee beans from Square Mile is far more superior that Monmouth. I have pretty much been to almost every ‘famous’ London coffee shop. And, hey, Monmouth is one of my least favourite.

GREAT blog… I’ve just discovered it and can’t wait to try half the places you’ve written about. Monmouth coffee is good – combine that with the amazing food at Lantana (Charlotte Place) and you have the perfect brunch.

As well as the great coffee – I’m quite partial to breakfast at the communal table – Massive pots of Jam, a pavement slab of butter, baskets of baguettes – its all you can eat for something like £3……and you can eat (in my experience) suprisingly less than you think.

I had always rated Monmouth as the best in London.. until I found the unnamed coffee cart on Whitecross St Markets that is run by Gwilym Davies (who recently became the 2009 World Barista Champion).

Hey, glad you liked it. I have the pleasure of working within a short walk from Monmouth in Covent Garden and think it is the best cuppa joe in town. Their house espresso blend is so smooth and rich - love it! Laissez Fare’s last blog post..Some Other Good Offers

I'm more of a tea person myself. But if I was to have a coffee, Monmouth would definetly be the place! r khooks’s last blog post..Rose ricotta clouds with strawberries
