Don’t be fooled by the tennis theme – this indie haunt a strong serve away from the All England Club is absolutely serious about its “delicious brews from different roast houses” and “tasty made-to-order toasties” – in fact, fans claim it’s “without a doubt the BEST coffee shop in SW London”, and “so friendly: only problem is it’s too popular and the queues can be sooooo long”.

This “great independent local coffee shop” on the road to the All England Club showcases an ever-changing list of coffees from different regions and roasteries, and serves “ace brunch food” all day (with tennis-themed names). Top Menu Tip – “the Break Point – eggs on muffins with ham and hollandaise is superb, with super-fresh deep-orange yolks”.

“There’s always a queue” at this Southfields independent coffee shop – “on the route to Wimbledon tennis (hence the name)” – which “beats the numerous nearby chains by a long way”. “Thank God for the coffee – and for their delicious brunches after reopening”.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
