Mawi Cafe

A Notting Hill Gem: Exceptional Coffee and Heavenly Treats ​If you find yourself wandering through the charming streets of Notting Hill, there is one spot you absolutely cannot miss: Mawi Coffee. From the moment we stepped inside, we felt an immediate sense of warmth and hospitality. It is one of those rare places where you don’t just feel like a customer, but like a welcome guest in a friend’s home. We truly felt super comfortable throughout our entire visit. ​The highlights, without a doubt, were the baked goods. We had the pleasure of trying a variety, and each was more impressive than the last: ​Orange Cake: This was a standout—perfectly moist with a vibrant, citrusy zing that wasn't overly sweet. ​Apple Pie: It tasted like a nostalgic, homemade masterpiece with a crisp crust and beautifully spiced apples. ​Blueberry Muffin: Often a simple staple, but Mawi’s version was excellent—bursting with fresh berries and featuring a perfect crumb. ​To wash down these treats, we ordered a Coffee and a Matcha. The coffee was expertly brewed, boasting a rich, smooth profile that satisfied even the pickiest caffeine lovers in our group. The Matcha was equally impressive—vibrant green, silky in texture, and possessing that perfect balance of earthy and creamy notes that is so hard to find. ​The atmosphere at Mawi is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of London. Whether you are looking for a quiet corner to relax or a friendly spot to catch up with friends on a first-name basis, this cafe delivers on every level. The combination of excellent food, delicious drinks, and a cozy vibe makes it a must-visit. ​We left with full stomachs and big smiles. If you are in the neighborhood, do yourself a favor and stop by Mawi Coffee—you won’t regret it!

First time visiting this café. We were tired from traveling and looking for something cozy and delicious, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite meet our expectations. The coffee was flat and not very hot. The sandwiches were average and not very tasty. Although they heated the egg and avocado sandwich, it was still served cold. The décor of the shop was pleasing to the eye, but the chairs were not comfortable. The main reason I’m giving this place 3 stars is the staff—they were friendly and welcoming

My sister and I went here twice during our 5 day trip to London. The banana bread and lemon bread are UNBELIEVABLE, as well as the Chai latte. This cafe is a great place to sit and read or take your coffee to go and stroll through Kensington Park which is right across the street. We loved this place!!!

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The iced coffee was fine, but the lox bagel felt a bit too simple for the price. Maybe I’m just used to NY–style bagels, but for me it seemed a little overpriced. 11.94💷

Love this place – good coffee, really nice and cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, great place to work with WiFi! A good escape from a busy street.

This cafe is a haven! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the warm aroma of fresh-baked goods and the inviting hum of conversation. The music creates a perfect ambiance for relaxing, catching up with friends, or even getting some work done. They offer a surprisingly wide selection of food for a cafe, and the quality is top-notch. I had the toasted bagel with eggs and avocado, and it was delicious. The omelette was perfectly cooked, and the crispy bagel added a great textural contrast. My flat white was excellent – you could really taste the coffee (no burnt beans here!). My partner, who has a sweet tooth, loved the blueberry bread but with salted butter (got it at home). Beyond the delicious food and drinks, the staff truly shines. They're friendly and welcoming, and it seems they know many regulars by name and their preferences. It creates a warm and familiar atmosphere. I'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this cafe! Pro tip: If you visit in the morning, they have a special offer on coffee and treats for takeaways!

I love this cafe so much. I come here very often. It’s such a chill and cozy cafe. I usually get a coffee and a sweet treat, but trying out their Caesar sandwich revolutionised my world hahaha. I can’t recommend this place enough, wifi is also free

Great place for studying, great wifi, staff is very friendly. No weird rules, just vibes. This could be my go to but the matcha is just okay.. I wish they cut down the drinks selection to only the best ones, and have more unique selection for their pastries.
