Very nice coffee shop at Kingston upon Thames. Great food and coffee with sandwiches and homemade cakes.

One of my favourite cafes in kingston. Their matcha is the best around. The staff are really friendly and the service is fab. Their morning pastries are really yum (be quick, they disappear fast!) and have good GF and VG options. Great options for seating too. Lovely little window seats if you’re there on your own or with one other person. Great people-watching spot. Wifi is easy to use and reliable and some of the tables have nearby plugs making it idea for a bit of work. We often find the music is a little too loud for us, though the music choice is always on point. Can just be a little difficult to have a conversation if you’re easily distracted or overwhelmed by noise level.

I ordered a latte, and it was evident that they offer delicious lattes, just like the great cafes around London. I haven't had the chance to sample their food yet, but it certainly looks enticing. It's worth giving it a try.

You won't believe how amazing this meal was! The pancakes were unbelievably light and fluffy because they were made with spelt flour. They were topped with bananas, strawberries, and honey, creating a perfect blend of flavors. It's the kind of meal that strikes the ideal balance between delicious and healthy. Another masterpiece, well done Local Hero Kingston

This is our cafe of choice in Kingston. The service is always welcoming and the coffee is the best in town. We have tried all the other cafes around the area and no one can beat a Local Hero coffee and especially when it has been made by Angie, she is not only the friendliest person but she is the best Barista by far.

Really lovely independent coffee shop, polite staff, peaceful music, amazing little bathroom that was spotless, great coffee. I didn't have any food but it all looked very tasty with good portion sized!

Nice coffee shop. Very friendly staff. Seen some complaining in reviews re cost of food & coffee. I'd say the prices are realistic, hospitality is struggling & inflation is crippling. I hope places like this get through.

Went there the other day after beeing recommended by other baristas in the local area. It honestly was a great experience I had and I loved the staff they were super nice and patient despite me being extremely nervous to order. The atmosphere was absolutely great and they made it feel like a safe space. I didn’t order anything to eat this time but I would certainly be going back again to enjoy the food.
