Arise Coffee Roasters

Arise Cafe is a must-visit for coffee lovers and foodies. The fact that they roast their coffee beans in-house is a testament to the quality of their coffee. The cafe's location next to Ealing shopping mall and Ealing Broadway tube station makes it a convenient spot for a quick coffee or lunch break. The cheese and ham sandwich was delicious, and the service was good. The coconut and strawberry cake perfectly complement a good cup of coffee. The cafe is a cosy and welcoming spot to hang out with friends or spend some alone time while enjoying their delicious coffee and food.

Great cafe for discerning coffee drinkers. The owner roasts the coffee beans freshly every morning with a range of classic coffee origins. The barista is charming and knowledgable and serves a cortado in an exquisite glazed cup. Worth a visit, especially with outdoor seating as inside the seating is quite close.

The first time I visited Arise I tried the Hong Kong milk tea. Which was just like tea I’ve had in Asia. Strong black tea with a lot of milk. I loved it. The food menu looked appetising, and I would definitely return to try some. They have some unique options which makes a change from the coffee shops in the area. There was a nice vibe, with many locals who enjoy their coffee and getting to know their friendly baristas. The gentleman barista was very knowledgeable about his coffee beans and also mentioned that at quiet times, you can try out single and blends. The second time I visited there was a beautiful scent of roasting coffee in the air. They blend the coffee on site, so you always get a fresh batch. You even have the option to buy coffee beans and on the spot roasted/ground beans, in your own containers. Saving on plastic and packaging. I tried the house blend coffee, but I felt the balance between milk and coffee may have been off, as it tasted almost like filter coffee. I also had a coffee bun. Like some Asian desserts, the bun was not too sweet, light, bouncy and complimented the coffee well. It was very busy, so I’m hoping it was just a bad day for them. I will still return as the staff are friendly and helpful; the tea was good and the vibe was relaxed. I am looking forward to trying some of the unusual food options
