the rug - maida hill

Gorgeous renovation of a beautiful old building made into a cool Cafe on Harrow Rd, food, service decor and ambience excellent and it was not over priced. We had brunch on a Sunday morning and would definitely visit again, oh and it’s open from 8.00am. Support local businesses.

The aesthetics of this place is beautiful. I have been to a LOT of independent coffee shops, and I would proudly say how well-decorated the interior design is! The bathroom (for customers only, by the way) is also really maintained in my opinion. The food prices are, of course, not cheap. I had an espresso for £3! That broke my heart… but my heart was elsewhere, I genuinely couldn’t take enough of the view. Sorry, but the place is seriously so pretty to me. Also, the service was really nice. :)

Really cute and quiet place. Food was good but a bit too slow, took us over 20 minutes from ordering to drinking and eating. Decor is very nice

Coffee spot that feels like you are relaxing in your best friends’ stylish bachelors pad. I loved the fact that they were open early on a Sunday and there were other laptoppers present. The place is calm, staff are cool collected and coffee is spot on.

The best coffee and canele in London! Very friendly and lovely owner ❤️ I was trying toast with salmon and coffee Creme Brule 😍it's something non realistic and gorgeous! Coffee and canele - just a sweet dreams 🥮☕️ I'll comeback soon again! P.s. And all my friends have a best recommendation about this place 😎

A new lovely decorated neighbourhood cafe which serves impeccable breakfast and excellent coffee. The aesthetics of this cafe brings such a peaceful atmosphere for you to come and chill and enjoy the amazing food while you relax. The staff are so friendly and welcome you with such warmness. I have since become a regular and my favourite thing to order is definitely the toasted croissant (croast) with beef tomatoes! Highly recommended.

What a gem! I came into The Rug Cafe while waiting for some friends to go to lunch on a Sunday afternoon. It’s spacious and beautifully decorated. When I came it was quiet, despite a healthy number of patrons, with gentle jazz music playing. They have superb, friendly service and exceptional coffee and tea. Their chai latte is the best I’ve ever had - lovely and gingery and not too sweet. Free wifi is also available. Highly recommended!

Great menu, delicious food, lovely interior. And really not a bad price. Coffee was excellent too and staff are really nice! Thanks for a great brunch
