My wife and I were specifically looking for a delicious coffee as we had a little time to kill in the area. Grind did not dissappoint! I had a flat white and my wife had a Latte and I kept saying after we left " that's how you do it!" because when you're selling coffee as your main thing it had better be absolutely delicious. Grind was exactly what we hoped to get when we set out looking for a coffee!!!

A cup of Nescafe 2 in 1 is more enjoyable than the one I had in the Soho Grind. It was my first time being in there and completely dissatisfied with the quality and service.

This is a review for their nespresso-compatible coffee capsules as I never visited their cafe in London. The concept is great, the subscription is easy to manage and cancel too. I loved the idea of compostable capsules but the coffee quality is not to my taste. I am used to real italian espresso, this coffee is too light and watery, not roasted… enough and the taste is not that typical nice strong, round and mellow of espresso but it’s rather just sharp and slightly too acidic. I tried the original, dark and decaf. The original is too bland for espresso (even worse for a flat white

Excellent coffee in a soho style and cozy location. Staff were nice and friendly. They have plenty of seats downstairs. Coffee Latte was nice I was very happy with the experience overall.
Located just right off Regents street. You can grab some coffee and walk 1-2mins and sit in Gloden Square park. I would come back and try the other items.

The place was very busy, but the baristas cracked through orders pretty sharpish busy for a reason I should add - delicious macchiato. Silky smooth texture and flavours.
