Very nice breakfast - Edit
I really liked this place. Though the full breakfast is a little pricey, it’s a large plateful and ingredients are clearly high end - good avocado, interesting mushrooms, nice sourdough. Highly recommend. My husband had mushroom omelette (chickpea flour) which was also good. A nice spot. Good teas and coffee too.
Read morePros: Friendly staff, Delicious food, High quality ingredients
Cons: A little expensive but not unexpectedly so

AMAZING - Edit
The brunch here was exquisite and the staff extremely friendly. They told us that our waffles would take some time to make and as a thank you they brought us free PANCAKES! Like what, the waffles weren't even late, we were pleasantly surprised and wish to come back soon :)

Delicious food but small portions - Edit
The food we had here was delicious, we got the large plate cauliflower steaks - however I wish the portions had been a bit bigger and more filling. The large plate could’ve almost been an appetiser, we left feeling very hungry. To be full up you’d have to probably get two large plates are multiple small plates, which then would be quite expensive.

Thank you so much for your feedback, Chloe - we're really glad to hear you enjoyed the cauliflower steaks! We're sorry to hear the portions didn't quite hit the mark for you this time. We always aim to strike a balance between quality, freshness, and value, but we truly appreciate your input and will definitely take it on board. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Would definitely recommend making your way over here. It can get very busy so maybe book if you can. Basically everything was vegan or could be made vegan and they had a large selection of baked goods. I found staff to be very friendly.

Delicious!! - Edit
Perfect place to stop by if you want a vegan version of the English breakfast as well as some marvelous waffles or pancakes. I also tried their matcha latte with coconut milk (they have many different plant based milk) and it was delicious. The staff is really friendly as well. Will be back!

Brunch - Edit
Cute vegetarian cafe with options to make any dish vegan. Food was tasty, I had the vegan omelette with mushrooms, wasn’t expecting to have carrots in the omelette, so be aware if ordering, but it was tasty even though I don’t know if I’d call it an omlette. Staff could be more attentive, we were forgotten about a couple times, but it was a busy Sunday so understandable. We paid up and then were getting coffee to go and the staff did put service charge on those coffees after we had paid service with our meal so that’s a bit frustrating. All and all good but wouldn’t rush back.
Read morePros: Good vegan options
Cons: Expensive

Thanks so much for your feedback, Taya. We’re sorry to hear about the service and the double service charge on the takeaway coffees — that’s definitely not our intention and we’ll look into it.

Very good food and nice staff - Edit
We booked a table for two on a weekday for lunch - I highly recommend doing so as it gets packed!
Read moreMy friend had the vegan burrito, which was very flavourful and huge. I had the vegan pancake with bananas, berries and compote, and that one was also very tasty and a big portion.
The staff was very kind and went above and beyond to cater for our special requests.

Cons: Limited space

Fabulous find! - Edit
Overnight visitor to London and wanted something different from a 'vegan breakfast' - found KIN and chose the vegan hash. It was delicious! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, it was busy (coming up to lunchtime) but the atmosphere was nice and relaxed. I got cake to take away and it was lovely too. The salad selection looked so colourful - I'd definitely visit again and go for the lunch salad combo!
Read morePros: Vegan options - good choice , Everything is made fresh

Best experience in a while - Edit
Service, speed, food, everything was perfect! We booked a table outside the night before for a Sunday brunch. It was really busy and people queuing up to be seated. The hostess was on top of everything vert swift and professional, drinks and food came out quickly, friendly staff, delicious food. Definitely would recommend.

Gross food, chaotic atmosphere - Edit
I was keen to go here after seeing such positive reviews but i really had a bad experience.
Read moreI ordered the vegan burrito and it took 30-40 mins even though I eventually saw them just grab a pre-made one from the window and heat it up! Unfortunately it was a big burrito and they didn’t cut it in half so everything in the burrito fell out after I had about 5 bites which ruined it for me :(
Very very chaotic atmosphere, the main guy was shouting at his staff cos they were just chatting and doing nothing so it really wasn’t relaxing lol.
The cook out the back looked like he was working really hard though and was making waffles that legit looked amazing so if you go here maybe try those!
Cons: Chaotic staff/atmosphere, Burrito not cut in half, Long wait times

The best food. The worst service and atmosphere - Edit
Honestly the food at this place is amazing. Absolutely love it and go a lot for the food. Saying that, the staff are pretty shocking, the service is terrible and the atmosphere is super chaotic and not relaxing at all. You’ll want to get in and out and the staff will encourage you to leave the moment you’ve sat down. I’ve also found that a few times, we’ve been there at around 3pm (they close at 4.30) and they are closing up and cleaning the floors and taking all the cakes etc away and encouraging you to leave - 90 mins before they close. We were so confused that we asked and they confirmed 4.30 close time. We also had a booking for 3pm and the moment we sat down they told us to order as the kitchen was closing in 5 mins. Then said the same to the people who came in with a booking 40 mins later. It was a bit odd and did make us feel quite uncomfortable, but they’re sort of known for it now.
Read moreGenerally if you want super quick food and won’t stay, then go. The food is great. But if you’re expecting that booking a table means you can spend an hour and have brunch and coffee and chat, you’ll be disappointed. You also won’t be able to hear yourself think with the noise of the staff and the general chaos.
Pros: Food
Cons: Staff and service, Atmosphere
KINLONDON
Thanks for your honest feedback — we’re so glad to hear you love the food and continue to come back for it! That said, we're really sorry the service and atmosphere have let you down. It’s definitely not our intention to make guests feel rushed or uncomfortable, and we completely understand how frustrating it must be, especially when you’ve made a booking. We’re actively working on improving communication around closing times and creating a more relaxed environment, so thank you for highlighting this — it really helps us do better.

We’re asked to leave - Edit
I’d say the food was good but not spectacular. The portions were a bit small especially regarding the prices. We were asked to leave right after eating which I found unwelcoming. I’d have ordered another coffee and a cupcake otherwise.

Pleasant brunchy cafe - Edit
Nice little *veggie* cafe in a pleasant area, most if not all items on the menu can be made vegan and the staff are super friendly. I had a vegan chickpea omelette which was the best omelette I've had since becoming vegan, as well as a cappuccino and some mushrooms. My friend had dairy free shakshouka (which can also be vegan). The food was brilliant but I didn't try much, and the drinks were fine too. Outdoor seating is a bit cramped so I'd reccomend sitting inside.
Read morePros: Delicious vegan omelette, Friendly staff that are very helpful, Many vegan options (almost everything)
Cons: Seating outside is cramped and shaky, Expensive , Coffees aren't great
