Dan GennoeJuly 17, 2010Mmmm. If you're having a flat White, treat yourself to an amazingly zingy piece of the lemon & ginger shortbread. So good!
Tim DymottApril 5, 2011It's worth sitting outside to watch soho go by, and they bring your coffee out to you!
JMP MarzabalAugust 3, 2010Brilliant expresso. The place is effortless cool – from the baristas to the ever-changing art on the walls and the music.
Andrew CerdaNovember 7, 2012Order the Flat White. It's like a cappuccino, but not frothy and served less hot so as to not burn the milk.
One of the best coffees in the city in a quite part of Soho Read more
Cyndie Da RochaMarch 27, 2019Staff is unwelcoming and the decor is inexistant. They have good coffee, but nothing else.
Not many people know this but 50 cent's seminal single "many men" was inspired by the Menemen he ate at milkbar.
Gluten free orange chocolate brownie = amazing. Milkshakes, however are pure liquid. Not nearly thick enough.- Karen VJanuary 5, 2015We were very disappointed. The waitstaff were snobby & unhelpful, the "pancakes" were some of the worst we've ever tasted & the banana bread was mushy. Limited and uninspiring menu.
Flavorpill_LDNAugust 10, 2011Grab a Flat White and some scrambled eggs on toast. Breakfast of champions!
Tammy Cowan - LearnJuly 28, 2010Best flat white in town...Also great for breakfast if you can get a seat.
RyanNovember 10, 2009Have a flat white at Milk Bar. Then go around the corner to Flat White on Berwick Street and have another one.
Matteo SarzanaSeptember 7, 2012No Credit or debit cards. If you wanna get your coffe you have to pay cash.
ReubsSeptember 20, 2018Coffee is good but the people who work there are pretty rude. I won’t be back.
Don't ask for a large flat white anymore - yes I know it's just a big version, but it's off the menu

"Centrally located and easy to get to. Always has a lovely vibe and atmosphere. It can get a little dirty and grungy when it’s very full. Don’t feed the birds."
