Origin

The baristas are friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable on coffee. You can be directed to the cup of your tastes, and the pastries are pretty good since they’ve changed (really love the lemon and poppy seed pastry!). Been here a few times now, so this review comes after a good couple of visits. Atmosphere of this place is lovely- it’s good for bringing friends, studying, etc. It’s a good mix, honestly- and free wifi.

i stopped into origin coffee randomly and was greeted with such kindness by the baristas david, sasha, and devon. also the myanmar beans were yummy in my flat white. amazing pastries too, i recommend the lemon poppy seed one.

The coffee is unreal, really good speciality coffee shop & a roastery. Coffee is well made, milk jugs cleaned in between use and service is pretty nice. I love the transparency of how much coffee costs, and how they are supporting local farmers. Well done! Also a really nice place to get some laptop work done! My fave spot around Southbank ps love the latter art too!

I love Origin Coffee! Their attention to detail makes every visit special. The coffee and matcha are top-notch, and I really appreciate how they serve water with every order—it’s such a thoughtful touch, perfect for cleansing the palate and enhancing the flavors. Not sure if it’s also to counter caffeine’s dehydrating effects, but it’s a brilliant idea! The ambiance is cozy, the staff are friendly, and you can tell they’re passionate about their craft. Highly recommend this gem for anyone who loves a true specialty cafe experience!

The combination of relaxed atmosphere + good specialty coffee makes this place more than just a grab-and-go. The presence of filter methods (batch & pour-over) means you can slow down your coffee, which aligns with a relaxed visit. My batch brew Aponte was smooth, mellow, easy to drink. Place is good for solo visits, catching up with a friend, or even a casual work session. Ask the staff for the pour-over method they’re using (V60, Kalita, etc.) and for the flavour notes — they were friendly during my visit and seemed keen to share. Batch brew may change frequently — if you like a specific profile, ask when the next filter brew will be available or see if they allow you to pick your brew method. Overall Verdict If I were to score it in informal terms: This is a very good coffee shop : relaxed atmosphere, nice music, competent baristas, and filter coffee options. A recommended spot for a good coffee and chill session in London.
