“ Great vibe. Plants and coffee. Professional service with hefty smiles for extras...Lagniappe! Jaren serves up the perfect coffee...and you can be someone's Rockstar with the gift of a plant. Everyone loves plants and I love their coffee. Highly recommend! ”
“ Coffee is fantastic, outdoor seating is so darling, their pastries (we had two different slices of loaves) were perfect. Weirdly enough my favorite thing is the cup my latte was served in. It has indents for your thumbs to hold the cup rather than a handle and I just love that? Also, they sell plants. That’s pretty awesome. ”
“ Great coffee, the best we had in London. The stuffed croissants were super tasty as well Staff is friendly plus the ambient is cozy and relaxed. I highly recommend the place. ”
“ The Coffee is very well made and they use excellent quality beans. I had a flat white and a cake. The space is small and eclectic and they have a nice selection of plants for sale too. I was there on a sunny day and the open seating out back was super quiet and comfortable. ”
“ Great local coffeeshop, worth a visit! Urban sits as my favourite local cafe in London. Their coffee selection is delicious, staff is polite and patient and the atmosphere is great. During busy times it can be slightly annoying as the place gets crowded and it is hard to find a seat, but a 10min wait while admiring the plants and pastries should be enough for you to sit. ”
“ Lovely coffee shop, with a great barista, tasty coffee and lots of lovely plants. I ordered a couple of flat whites, which were made to perfection. I had a snack also, which was nice. They have some small cakes and savoury croissants. The place is full of plants, which is really pretty. There are a few places to sit. The barista was very friendly, happy and obliging. ”
“ Urban Botanica is a gem of a find. A lovely coffee shop. Nice atmosphere (lots of plants around) with good service.Nice choice of individual cakes and wonderful coffee! We sat out the back in the small garden/terrace. I loved seeing the silver birch tree there. I will definitely re-visit if I'm ever in the area. ”
“ Urban Botanical is a beautiful small coffee shop that is perfect for plant lovers. Really nice atmosphere with seating inside and outside. The latte I had was very good, and the croissant decent (price in total: 5.55)! I visited a weekday morning, and it was not busy, but most people were getting their coffee to go. The barista is very friendly and skilled at their craft. ”
