Mokoko Coffee

This shop is very near to Roman Bath. We manage to grab a sourdough egg salad sandwich and a mozzarella tomato focaccia. Both are really tasty and good for a rush lunch. Next, we should try their coffee and lattes. They are looking very good.

Great pastries, really are good, fresh and sell out quickly. Served by 3 different staff who are all ok but look like they are either rushed, not enjoying themselves or don't want to be there. Had better service elsewhere but not better pastries.

Mokoko is a beautiful and cute café with a relaxed environment. Perfect for reading a book or working on your laptop. My boyfriend and I had their almost croissant with a cappuccino and hot chocolate. The croissant was absolutely delicious and quite big for one person to finish by themselves. I highly recommend this lovely café :)

I came to Bath recently, for the first time, on a mini little break before starting at the University part time. I did my research before travelling, and saw Mokoko was highly rated due to its pastries and scenic location right by Bath Abbey and the Roman Baths. I decided to add it to my foodie list, and arrived as the shop opened at 9am, and it was a Monday. I was so earlier the pastries had not been put out on the counter! I had planned to get an Almond Croissant, seeing amazing reviews for this, but overheard that these were not on the menu on that day (something to keep in mind if you're going for a specific item!). I wondered what else was on the menu and was given a list of options, where I picked the Almond Praline Chocolate Pain Suisse. It was a mild morning so I was able to sit outside, looking onto the amazing view of the Abbey - as well as the pastry! Now this was definitely one of the prettiest pastries I have even seen, which was a very positive start. Given the pastries had just been bought out I did almost expect it to be warm, which it was not at all. Nevertheless, I bit into the pain suisse. This was beautiful. The pastry was amazingly crispy and buttery - you can tell they use real butter opposed to margarine (not only by the taste but also by how the pastry comes together when you bite into it). The filling was plentiful, and the nuttiness well balanced with the chocolate. This is one of the best pastries I have ever eaten, made better by the views this place has to offer. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend popping by Mokoko if you're in Bath, and intend on returning myself (hopefully to try the Almond Croissant!)

Mokoko's cinnamon buns and almond croissants are the tastiest, flakiest, and butteriest in Bath. I think they tweaked their recipe a bit, because it's yummier now!

The outside places were filthy and tables needed clearing and cleaning. We really like Mokokos so it was a real pity that the Bath branch let the company down.

The team are always really helpful especially when I have the pram, they always help me in or serve me from the door if it’s too busy. These smallest acts of kindness make me come back every time I pass by. Doesn’t hurt that they do the best pastries in Bath ;)

Having arrived in a busy sunny Bath rather tired, I was delighted to find an attractively placed empty coffee house (one of many) in front of the magnificent Abbey. I ordered coffee and selected a slice of cake from a cheery face. I might be rather harsh on giving one star for atmosphere, as on this occasion, it suited my weary body not be engaged in the bustle of the city, and it was 3.30pm. All was going very well until I politely enquired whether using cash was acceptable - in itself a rather ludicrous statement as it is still legal tender in this country. It wasn’t all right at all. Mokoko Cafe is card only. My cake was whipped away and my coffee cancelled, seemingly along with my existence in daring to ask such an outrageous question. There was a brief moment of silent stand off, where we just stared at each other wrapped in our own disbelief. I left the cafe - no goodbyes. Now - much as I embrace modern culture, I do think that a cafe in the centre of a heritage city should take the coin of the realm. I suppose if I had been a tourist and was faced with such a dilemma I would have used a credit card, thus incurring the usual charge for the privilege. I didn’t have a credit card on me, just pieces on plasticised paper with a picture of King Charles printed on them. Who loses most here? Undoubtedly the cafe because they lost revenue. My loss was only temporary because Cafe Nero were delighted with my cash - and they serve great coffee and cake. Come on Mokoko - move with the times.
