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,I presumed so , but having been unable to find one ,I thought I'd ask on here.   It may be because I need to.virw the map on something other than my phone .
    • Sorry to hear that, New Wave. I hope you find something soon. I genuinely had this situation in Superdrug on the south coast yesterday. I was buying their own version of E45 cream (it's about a third of the cost) and they asked if I had my Superdrug card with me. I didn't. Who does?  But they were able to apply the appropriate discount to my purchase due to them having my mobile phone number and email on record.  You can fill in any old bollocks for the loyalty card. I found it quite funny when they asked me to confirm that I was Dr. Dave Dave, of Dave Road, Dave, London, SE15 5DV. I'm actually not a real doctor!  
    • With gym memberships, it depends how often you go and how much you get out of it. If you go 3 times a week or lose 10kg in a year, that's a bargain. If you never go, it's incredibly expensive. There are people who will happily spend £50 2-3 times a week at the pub or on takeaway food or coffees over the course of a week or leasing a car. Whether it's worth it is up to you. 🤷‍♂️
    • Also, if you keep receipts but don't have a card, they will give you the discounts you would have had. Probably a good idea to take the receipts in at a quiet time, though 🤣
