5 Great Places To Eat Near Waterloo Station - London - The Infatuation

"For fans of caffeine and rhyming words, there are few London coffee shops that will sort out your latte craving quite as well as Sista Barista on Westminster Bridge Road. Not only does this family-owned café do an apple and cinnamon bun that is entirely worth the mess of sugar that’s about to conquer your lap, it’s home to one of London’s best iced coffees. Their frappuccinos are downright delicious, like the kind of delicious where you keep saying ‘fmu frappuccinos are great’, they’ve got a vast range of hot coffee options too, ranging from chai lattes to cheap and cheerful espressos, and we haven’t even mentioned the savoury snacks yet. The falafel wrap? Fantastic. Just be warned that this place is popular with local office workers, so allow a little extra time for any queues. If you are a straightforward creature who believes that tasteful foliage and coffee is the source of eternal happiness, then you’ll also like Travel Café. A plant shop with a coffee window in the back corner, they’ve also got you covered with all the caffeine classics." - Heidi Lauth Beasley

I LOVE this cafe. Every time I'm in London for work, I come here for breakfast (once or twice a month). A good gluten free bagel is hard to come by in this country, and these are divine, and the choice is immense. Never disappoints, cannot recommend more!

This eye-catching and cozy spot on the corner of Lower Marsh, nestled beneath the Waterloo railway bridge, has been on my radar since I arrived. I finally got to try their delicious bagel! I ordered the Turkey Deluxe, which has cheese and egg and was absolutely delicious. It's best enjoyed outside; I love sitting in the outdoor area and watching the hustle and bustle of people passing by. The staff is friendly, so don't hesitate to ask for a recommendation. Oh, and you absolutely must try their latte

I just have to give a shout-out to this amazing spot! It's run by two fantastic sisters, and their customer service is incredibly friendly. They have a huge variety of options and delicious coffee, too. You have to check them out! ☕️💖

Came in here today for a Sausage and Cheese bagel with a bit of brown sauce and a cuppa tea. Very friendly staff, fancied something a bit different than a bog standard McDonald's/Greggs/pret etc. Great spot, would recommend!

I always see the queues in the morning for Sista Barista, so I had to check the coffee shop out for myself. I managed to visit when there weren’t many people, and sat by the window. Note this is a small place with limited seating capacity. It is more of a grab and go kind. I ordered an almond croissant and a latte (£5.80). I have to say the coffee was smooth and delicious, specially the quality of the milk was very good. The price is reasonable for a large cup, compared to other coffee shops in London. I would have loved for the coffee cup to be a nicer design and not gray, as I think there could be some interesting designs made with the name of the shop, but this is just a small suggestion. I’d say this is a hidden gem of a small local coffee shop. Staff were a bit rushed, but very friendly. I recommend this place, if you’re on the go!

I was looking around for a place near my hotel to grab a quick bite & hot tea & found Sista Barista via Yelp. I had a toasted bagel with cream cheese & smoked salmon & a hot Earl Grey tea with milk & sugar. Perfect quick meal. There are a few bar stools along the window counter so you can eat & people watch. Service is quick & helpful.

The food was good and served quickly. Operators were courteous and friendly. It's a busy place in the early morning serving the commuters and locals.

Went here a few time while in London, and I had to say, it was one of our most favorite places to go have a quick breakfast before starting are day. Everything was delicious from the food to coffee..

Only in London for 3 days and came here twice. The coffee is great & toasties are great too. The women working were so kind and it's just a great place to start your day. I'd recommend.

The Sista Barista Westminster Bridge Rd Lambeth, is a busy hole in the wall style cafe, a few stools to sit on inside and a small stool outside the door on the footpath. The coffee was good, but unfortunately it is served in styrofoam cups, and over hot, which did not enhance the coffee. The food available is prepared as you order, Breakfast, Brunch assorted wraps. Even though the place is very busy, there was no undue delay. This venue caters for the London grab a coffee and a wrap scene, while on the move.

Sista Barista is a charming and cozy cafe with delicious drinks and very sweet baristas. The girls were incredibly kind and let me charge my phone behind the counter (I was in town on vacation, had landed earlier that day, and my phone was nearly dead). They made me one of the best dirty chais I've ever had, and even let me stay a few minutes past closing time so I would have a fully charged phone when I left. If I'm ever in London again, I'll definitely go back!

Fantastic wraps! I devoured an on-site smoked beef brisket and my friends both had Cajun chicken. Fresh ingredients, all tasty, we all had a delicious lunch! Highly recommended!

This is my go-to coffee in this quirky and charming area. Especially well done coffees, house smoked meats, and warm intimate atmosphere keep me coming back to the lovely barristas. I enjoyed the jerk chicken sandwich, the daily special, and did I mention the house smoked meats? The music was light Bossa Nova when i walked in, and was inclined to relax a minute before returning to the bustle that is London.

Stop by at this place for lunch and everything was great. We had coffee, smoothie and chicken wrap. I especially enjoyed chicken wrap which comes with either cole slaw salad or vegetable salad inside.

Nice and quiet in the mornings and reasonable prices. The girls that work here are very sweet.
