There’s No Such Thing As Too Many….Cappuccinos

Follow Me Through The Wonders Of London’s Notorious Café Delights


My trip to London, England this past summer consisted of pastries, caffeine, and
long walks to burn off those not so regretful buttery sweets. I can almost promise you that
every corner turned had a café so, I decided to document each experience!


1. Gail’s Bakery

During my two week vacation, I visited Gali’s roughly 6 times.
Gail’s was a 10 minute walk from my apartment in Parsons Green.
Although, eating in is an addition charge of 60-80 cents.
I recommend having the avocado toast, classic cappuccino and a maple pecan scone.

This café brings the feel of Paris to London. Dress up in your prettiest afternoon tea dresses and silk white gloves. This café has a beautiful view of the department store Harrods. This location in Knightsbridge is affordable and luxurious. My recommendations include lemongrass tea and a cinnamon raisin scone.

Illy is an Italian café that I came across in South Kensington. The baristas told me stories about the unique espresso cups sold by the café and their coffee imported from Italy. I recommend a regular creamy cappuccino, and a flaky chocolate croissant.

Has anyone has ever visited London? If so what were your favourite café experiences? I hope they were similar to mine!
