"Monmouth has some of the best coffee in Borough (if not all of London), and its filter coffee is especially good. Just try to get here early in the morning or mid-afternoon if you want to avoid the queues at peak times. It’s especially nice to stroll around with a hot cup of caffeine while fantasising that you might actually do something with those expensive vegetables you just bought." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Daisy Meager, Sinead Cranna

"The lines stretching out of this bright, open café space are testament to a very busy market with but one coffee shop, it’s true. But they’re also testament to the status of Monmouth as a London institution: brewing single origin filter coffee way, way, way before it was cool through the filter cones lined up like sentries reporting for duty. The flat whites and all are good too, but drip is king." - Ed Smith

"A landmark destination for anyone who knows their lattes from their flat whites. Located on Monmouth Street, this shop has been roasting coffee beans onsite since 1978. It’s a local favorite — something that’s easily noticed thanks to the constant queue that snakes around the corner. Despite the line, the wait is rarely too long.Where: 27 Monmouth St, London WC2H 9EU, United Kingdom" - MATADOR_NETWORK

The coffee is incredibly delicious and rich. The canelé is absolutely the best I’ve ever had compared to many other places. The atmosphere is great, but it can get crowded, so seating might be limited. Highly recommended to give it a try at least once!

Great coffee, but at what cost? Do we drink coffee purely for the caffeine boost—to power through the day—or do we drink it for the pleasure, to savour its intricate flavours and inviting aroma? If it’s the latter, this Monmouth coffee shop might not be the place for you. While the coffee itself is excellent, the experience leaves much to be desired. The tiny space, perpetually crowded with no seating available, paired with the peculiar £5 deposit policy for cups, makes you question whether to stay or simply leave. The atmosphere doesn’t invite you to linger or relax. Fortunately, there are other coffee spots nearby where you can enjoy both great coffee and a more comfortable environment. Great coffee, but not much else. 3 out of 5.

If you're in London, and you're a coffee lover, you cannot possibly miss out on trying Monmouth Coffee. Especially given the convenience of being situated at Borough Market, all the more there's no excuse. Rich and well roasted coffee beans, no frills local experience, and reasonable price points. Although there's no service like you would some other cafes, still worth visiting all else considered.

Really good coffee. Loved the foam, texture and taste. Very tasty flavour in the coffee but never too strong of bitter! The place is cool and open, service was fast and good by the workers. They all had a big smile on the face while talking to you, and they were very helpful too.

thought this is more of a cash grab or tourist trap but coffee quality is superb. the queue is very well laid out as customers can see the entire coffee brewing process from start to finish and we walk to the front cashier. vibes are great and food is reasonably priced.

This chain coffee shop is located inside Borough Market and is fairly easy to find, although it often has long lines. The shop is small, so seating is limited. I heard from friends that their coffee is quite good, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered a latte and a pain au chocolat, and both were enjoyable. Notably, the barista calls out the customer’s order before preparing the latte art right in front of them, which adds a nice touch. The staff were also very polite. Additionally, there was a warning on the tables for customers to be cautious with their belongings due to the presence of pickpockets in the market. I’ll definitely come back to try other items!

Definitely one of the better flat whites that I have had in London 👍🏻 ⏰ came by around 11 and the queue was snaking outside the store and round the corner of it.. Thought we would skip it but decided to still go for it since we were full from our earlier meals in the market anyways. ☕️ flat white tasted really great, smooth coffee and fragrant too 🥐 the pain au chocolat was okay, not my favourite for how the chocolate filling is only in the centre, and the sides tear off once you bite into them too Overall a great place to have a takeout coffee if you can’t get a seat!

They said no cappuccino, so I ordered latte, with a croissant, and ny husband ordered a cortado and pain au chocolat. The latte was way too milky, the art latte techniques failed (I suggest he shouldn't have tried, given the number of tourists from all over the world queueing outside). The cortado has less milk so we could taste the bean more. What's most disappointing is the pastries are served cold but they are expensive... I was thankful the queue wasn't too long for us (like 5 or 6 parties in front of us) and we could find our seats right away. However, I really think paying £15.5 for what we had was definitely not worth it, unfortunately...
