Hussar's is a nice little independent coffee shop located in Hampton Wick. It's clear that the…read moreowner has put in the effort to differentiate his place from the other cafe down the road. For instance, the decor's nicer. It feels just that little bit more upmarket, and, therefore, nicer to sit down and linger in. It also helps that there're books and newspapers for you to read as well. Another point, he offers two roasts of coffee. I usually go for the Italian, which tastes all right. Allso, he has a loyalty scheme as well, where if you buy seven coffees, the eighth is on the house. All these little touches you'd expect from a high street coffee shop, found in a small independent one in a rather quiet part of town (compared to the area across the bridge!). The owner is friendly and chatty. I think he used to be in sales prior to opening up the coffee shop so there's a danger you might find yourself in there chatting for quite some time the first couple of times you're in there. And, speaking as someone who desperately needed a pick-me-up after a late night of unexpected boozing, Hussar's bacon sandwiches were a lifesaver! I've given this place three out of five stars because I've had better tasting coffee elsewhere (usually in central London). Still, for the area, this is pretty much the best you can get, and for a not too bad price (£2.20, if memory serves).

On first impression as very disappointed with the cleanliness and hygiene of the place. Opening the door the handle was very sticky. Being disabled I had my wheelchair. The space was very tight and no offer of assistance to find a table, there were a couple of customers but the staff decided to huddle for a conversation while I struggled to stand and order. There was limited choice of food compared to other locations. The tables were also sticky and not wiped down. I asked to use the toilet to wash my hands and the soap dispenser did not work which seems to be ongoing as someone has written a note to the staff on the hand dryer, the floor was soaked. The customer seating area and floors were disgusting. Not one table was cleaned or wiped down while we were there over 40 minutes. I enjoyed the mocha but my husband choose not to eat and just have a coffee. The croque Monsieur was dry and we not up to the usual quality or standard. I will not be coming back to this Paul again. The standards and quality have dropped, I hope it is not the same for other Paul locations.

I was blinded with options, but choose a Chicken Tikka sandwich as it had mango chutney on it. It's like all your Indian food in one! (Err... sorta.) It was a colossal sandwich. It was made with their Rustic bread, which, YOMG was so good, and very soft with crusty edges! For £3 and some change, you're best off splitting it with someone. Or eat the other half for dinner. Or save it for your lunch tomorrow. Either way, in the words of Mortal Kombat, FINISH IT!

Slightly smaller than the La Fiesta across the road, but just as friendly, if not more so. The owner spends far too much time there, but it's also a relief as he is open to negotiation on their already average prices, and is very loyal to his regulars. Many a morning has started with "My friend! How are you? You look tired! Are you ok? The usual? With red bull today? I knew it, I can always tell! Now, what time did you go to sleep? Tsk tsk, when I was your age...". In fact, the one lunch time I wanted a different wrap from usual, the waitress there took one look at me and said what she reckoned I would want instead - and was right. Spot on! My only gripe here is that sometimes the mayonnaise has a slight tang to it that I can't quite agree with, which has led to my varying my lunches a lot more now. Otherwise, it's groovy baby, yeah!
