Nice cafe with some tasty small bites and coffees. Glad we still have a cafe as it makes a trip to the park more comfortable.

Wonderful little cafe with a fantastic little menu. The bagels are amazing, I’m yet to try the coffee but I can’t wait to give it a go. The queue moves quickly and it has a nice in and out system.

A wonderful addition to the park and area in general. Their vegan friendly bagels are always fresh, the homemade soup is a delight, and there is often a great selection of fresh baking. The cafe is directly under a gorgeous old Holm Oak and there's always plenty of seating surrounded by the homemade planters. Couldn't recommend the place enough be it for a takeaway cuppa or for a sit down light lunch.

Visited with my daughter and partner this morning and bought a flat white and a brownie. The brownie was very delicious and moist and the coffee was great too. Prices are very reasonable too. There is a public toilet behind the cafe too. There are plenty of places to sit surrounded by greenery. We’ll definitely be back when we take our daughter to the park.

Located in a container, an enviable location on the brow of the hill with outside seating aside a veteran tree. Attuned to contemporary tastes albeit a limited selection and offering seasonal tweaks. Vegan options. Coffee holds its ground. Service is efficient and enthusiastic. Recommended.

Scrumptiously fresh bagels! Sitting atop the centre of Mountsfield Park, the al-fresco seating is so lovely with views of downtown Lewisham. They have a selection of classic pastries and the bagels were to die for at reasonable prices. The staff were also very warm and accommodating.
