The Fields was a quick yet hearty sit down breakfast for us; just what we needed before carrying on…read morewith our travels. - A delicious croissant with emmental, bechamel and tomato and a beautiful latte with an impressively foamy milk top, complete with latte art, of course. Breakfast in London was kind to us, and not too much of a costly affair. It was a fleeting visit but a memorable one, made all the more so by the fast and friendly service. We sat outside as it was a beautiful morning. - Just lovely! If you're nearby, I suggest you pop in.

I thought I'd stumbled across a charming coffee shop to hide from the rain and grab a coffee with…read moremy baby in a pram. However, I was told that I could not bring my buggy in. The shop was completely empty except for one solo customer. I then looked around and saw a sign saying 'no buggies' amongst some other hostile signage about no laptops. The poor barista was apologetic and clearly embarrassed to enforce this rule from management even in the empty ghost town of a cafe and it was pouring with rain. The big question is why situate yourself in a family area near a big park and school if you don't want children and families inside? This coffee shop must have made some big business from that one customer to be cutting out an entire sector of the market. If it's a space issue, just ask customers to fold buggies or park them outside.

Munson's is easily the best coffee in Ealing. It's a little bit of a walk south from the main drag…read moreof Uxbridge Rd/the Broadway, but it's worth it. The steady stream of local folks in and out tells the tale. Munson's is small and cozy, with only a few seats inside and few out on the pavement in good weather. The staff are very friendly, make some quality sandwiches, have some nice pastries, and even play good music (blues the last time I was in). But most importantly they make awesome organic, fair-trade coffee (I usually stop in the morning, and so get a cappuccino). They're happy to sell their coffee beans, too, ground or unground. Most varieties are fair-trade and organic. If you prefer independent, quality places to grab a cup, this is the spot in Ealing.

I can't speak on behalf of all the other places in CP who sell coffee etc, but I think the new…read moreCosta is a welcome addition to the high street in a Crystal Palace, even if it is a chain. The print shop that was here before has closed, and it's been replaced by people on MacBooks in a coffee shop; which I suppose is a depressing representation of the publishing industry as a whole. As it's their 2nd day of trading, the staff are still keen and conscientious, taking extra time to draw pretty pictures in cappuccinos and sprinkling chocolate Costa logos on the hot chocolates, I don't think it's the kind of store that will ever be crazy busy because of the location, so the attentive service is something I'm optimistic will continue once he helium is long gone from the balloons celebrating the store's opening. There is a great selection of sandwiches, cakes and pastries to accompany the drinks. I'm a pudding guy, (just check my ever-expanding waistline for proof) so I opted for a trio of mini tarts to accompany my large, two-handled, hot chocolate. The rhubarb and custard tart disappointed, the banoffee pie tart was nice, but my favourite was the pecan pie tart. I don't think I'll be going around the corner to Nero again.

You probably wouldn't even see it if you were driving past because it's away from the main road, overlooking the river in Brentford. I went on a sunny Saturday and fell in love with the terrace. They have several bottled beers or Moretti and Heineken on draft. Their menu consists of burgers, steaks, fish & chips, salads, and desserts. Cocktails are available as well, and during happy hour (6-8pm) it's just £10 for 2 cocktails. Burgers are served on a wooden skate with generous portion of "steak fries" (or thickly cut chips as Brits would say). My favorite part about this place is the massive terrace, river views and relaxed atmosphere, but thankfully the food is great too. My only critique is that service was a bit slow and had to walk in to pay because my server wasn't coming out to collect my card for payment, but I think that's a testament to the slow moving vibe of this place.
