I may be late on this but late last night I had the best expresso I have ever drunk outside Italy - at Caffe Vergnano in Charing CRoss Road. They seem to have just three outlets so not, yet, a nationwide chain but I predict a great future if my experience of their wares is anything to go by.


Highly recommended if you're near one of the three branches - Charing Cross Road, Southbank and Chancery Lane.


PS: I have nothing to do with the company - but if they're selling franchises I'd be tempted.

Vergano are an international company, they do OK in Europe. There are quite a few cafes selling fresh roast beans near charing cross. Try Monmouth or Bullet. Vergnano is no better than Illy or Lavazza for me, all stale.

Best espresso in London? The Exchange at Lewisham Market.

Most recently in the Times ?Coffee Uncovered? publication, under the title of London's top spot for a coffee break, it credits Caff? Vergnano as serving "the best espresso in London".

I will second that. I adore Monmouth in Borough Market on Friday afternoons. The weekend can begin!

    • Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse. 
    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
