Nice little place to come and get coffee and a snack. I went down here every morning (and some nights) for a quick espresso when we were there. Located immediately across the street from Trafalgar Square - very convenient. I know it's a chain, but it's a nice chain. There was an oddball employee that seemed surly at times. Not positive if he could help that or not. read more

I came towards the end of the day, so they were doing a bit of a cleanup. So only the front part of the café was open for seating. I got a vanilla latte which tasted subpar and watery. My boyfriend's latte was really nasty felt like this place was just giving chain coffee shop vibes. would not recommend to go back again. We ended up throwing our lattes out. read more

This was probably the worst coffee I think I've had in a very long time. I ordered a pistachio latte and it just tasted horrible. It tasted as if was the barista's first day. It tasted like hot sugar water. I will definitely not be coming back. read more

5 stars for service. Very friendly fellows. 3 stars for drinks. Chocolate milkshake: 3 Mocha Frappe: 4 Latte: 3 Excellent location. read more

Caffe Nero is a chain of coffee shops located all around London. We visited locations by Trafalgar Square, near Windsor Castle, and Bluewater Mall. All times, the baristas were relatively kind and accommodating to allergies and substitutions. They have a great rewards program, so if you're new to the area, I'd recommend downloading the app for discounts. The coffee and hot chocolate itself was pretty average but was definitely worth the price. We tried the millionaire's hot chocolate - the double fudge whipped cream and marshmallows really saved the drink. I also tried a hot chocolate with 2 pumps of gingerbread and 2 pumps of vanilla which fulfilled my holiday drink cravings. The desserts were really nice as well. We tried the millionaire's cake (a classic in Europe), a pistachio mousse, and a carrot cake. All were a little too sweet, but worth the price. The aesthetic inside all of the Caffe Nero's we went inside were great. There was plenty of seating and places to take pictures. I'd recommend for someone looking for a quick coffee/bathroom break on a trip with their family. read more

I mean it's a Caffè Nero so I knew what to expect and it delivered. I think what makes it worthy of a review is its location which is across the road from the buzzing and beautiful Trafalgar Square which makes people watching with a cuppa that little bit more interesting! read more

So when you are in Rome, or in this case London, try the local stuff. We had seen many Caffe Nero around but we decided to stop here and take a quick break. It had been hot but was starting to cool but I chose a café latte and it was very ordinary. There was a sign advertising a delicious cheesecake muffin but what I got was a small and well very ordinary dessert. Kind of a cheesecake but with muffin squares that look like croutons. The kicker was the rude girl that attended my wife. My wife had ordered from a very nice guy and after she took her ordered turned to a young Asian girl and asked for napkins. The young lady continued with what she was doing completely ignoring my wife for a few minutes. My wife thought that she didn't hear her so she called for her again and the girl bent down below the counter. Another customer looked and my wife and we started laughing. She had heard her and did NOT want to address my wife's request. She leaned over and asked her again loud enough that everyone in the café heard. The girl stood up and walked away. At that point we all thought it was over, she is going to get some napkins and come back but she comes back with no napkins. My wife was going to ask the nice employee that had helped her but decided she was going to get this girls attention and she did but the girl picks up two napkins with her fingertips in the most sarcastic way [you had to be there] and gave her a dirty look. Being that it was Thursday late, it was not busy and she just couldn't understand why or what was her motivation. read more

Stopped in for a coffee and almond croissant today! The folks behind the counter were fast and friendly. The almond croissant was much better than their competitors. What else do you want in the morning from your local coffee shop! Stop on in! read more

Reminds me a ton of Starbucks, expensive with average tasting coffee. They have a better selection of snacks and sweets than Starbucks and this location is nicely located in Trafalgar Square with an amazing view of the square. It's a great place to unwind and watch all the tourists run around taking photos. I would grab a cup of coffee in the next door Pret A Manger since they have a better selection of food and outside seating if you want something a bit more filling. The free Wifi is dope but a lot of places have free Wifi (again, the Pret A Manger next door). I probably won't be back since there are so many options for coffee/tea. read more

Caffè Nero - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

These are basically found almost everywhere in England, and seem to be trying to rival Starbucks in basically producing substandard coffee. Okay, maybe I'm being a little pretentious here because the coffee really wasn't that bad, but it certainly wasn't high on the impressive meter either. However, since I had seen this place everywhere, and since I wanted to try something that is particularly English, I endeavoured to have at least one coffee here. Basically it is a chain store, and when it comes to chain stores, well, it is basically what you would expect. read more

Stopped by in between sigh seeing around Trafalgar Square. This cafe provided us with free wifi which is much appreciated while traveling. We caught up with loved ones and then headed back to Trafalgar Square. Lots of food items and drinks on the menu. It's clean, comfortable, and convenient. read more

Stayed at the Trafalgar Square Hilton next door for a couple of weeks. This Caffe Nero was a great way to help start my mornings. The baristas are uber efficient, chewing through large lines quite quickly. Unlike the nearby Starbucks, the baristas here made a lovely drink every time. The atmosphere is spacious, comfortable, and relaxing. That said, it can be a bit crowded on weekends when the square has an event. The WiFi is free at this location. read more

Quaint cafe by Trafalgar Square. Great and friendly service. Nice place to have quick light breakfast and coffee.

Love this place... Came here often for coffee as well as to just use the toilets when i'm passing by... The staff are pretty relaxed i've even seen them give free coffees to homeless people that come in.. They don't bother or rush you to finish... The venue is spacious with plenty of seating from chairs to couches... The vibe is very relaxed... For a franchise place they serve great coffee... Would i go back? Always... read more

I was in a hurry wanting to go to the airport and there was a line with two people in front of me one person was working the register and making all the coffee you other two were slowly Doing other things like adding pastries to the window while customers were standing there waiting a complete disregard for customer service everything should be focused on taking the order and feeling it it was totally on except a bowl that three people allowed me to wait there for more than five minutes before I walked away and gave up read more

The coffee here is good, the staff is friendly, and their salted caramel shortbread will change your life in a good way. They only have a single bathroom for the entire shop which is a bit frustrating at times because the wait can get quite long, but the prices are reasonable and it is very clean. A good chain that is easily found around London! read more

Packed and heaving with locals and tourists and just about always busy. Good food, priced well, nice selections of drinks, as well. Wish they had wi-fi and a loo. What is it with this chain, so everywhere in London and they don't have wi-fi? Behind the times, they are. And probably afraid that people will park themselves and slow customer turnover. Business myths if you know how to run a modern business... read more

Well, what can you say about one specific Caffe Nero? This one is right next to Trafalgar Square, so tourists are all over the place. Otherwise it is your standard Caffe Nero, baristas are good, food is good, cookies is good, and it is not Starbucks if that matters do you in any way. read more

Love this Nero. The staff is always courteous and helpful, and whenever I find the window seats vacant, I always enjoy myself that much more, as I get to drink in the view of Trafalgar Square at the front, or, alternatively, the Admiralty Arch at the back!!! read more

A great place for a quick and affordable breakfast while staying in London! The staff at the Trafalgar Square location were always friendly, and the Café Americano was always hot and satisfying. Comfortable setting with good food. read more
