Stylish Knightsbridge cafe for creative brunch and specialty coffee, with strong food and ambiance but inconsistent service and premium pricing.
Co. delivers solid brunch execution with strong food quality highlighted by crowd favorites like French toast and salt beef hash, paired with a stylish, calm side-street setting near Hyde Park. However, inconsistent service ranging from warm to brusque and occasional seasoning and quality variation prevent grade A territory, while premium pricing—especially for juices—limits overall value perception for a casual brunch spot.
Tucked off the main drag, this spot feels warm and minimalist with a calm side-street vibe near Hyde Park. Service swings from friendly and quick to brusque at busy moments, and pricing can surprise on juices. The cooking leans contemporary brunch with global touches—think teriyaki salmon on toast and salt beef hash—executed with clean, produce-forward flavors. The culinary approach feels elevated but not fussy: creative twists on cafe classics rather than theatrical plates. Many diners rave about the decadent French toast, while a few mention occasional misses or seasoning swings. Families will find it workable: no kids menu, but items like French toast, grilled cheese, and hash browns are easy wins. Prices are premium for a cafe, so plan accordingly, and note that customization can be limited—picky eaters may prefer straightforward choices like toast or sweets.
