The story
Monmouth Coffee Company has long been a beloved fixture in London’s coffee scene, and Mark Wiens recently reaffirmed its status during a Borough Market crawl. Calling it “a fantastic coffee spot at Borough Market with excellent filter coffee and freshly roasted beans,” he gave the shop a hearty thumbs-up for a morning caffeine fix. The cafe sits on Monmouth Street in Covent Garden, earning a solid 4.5-star average from visitors.
What distinguishes Monmouth is its commitment to quality: the filter coffee here is a standout, and the beans are roasted fresh daily. Doobydobap was equally impressed, describing an “absolutely toasty and delicious” piccolo as “one of the best coffees I’ve ever tasted.” It’s the kind of unpretentious spot that feels both essential and inviting—ideal for grabbing a cup before exploring the market or simply savoring a quiet moment in a busy city.

Piccolo
I ordered the piccolo and it's rich, caramelly, and so toasty. The cane sugar here is what makes it so special. I'd say this is one of the best coffees I've ever tasted in my life. It's creamy, caramelly, and almost chocolatey. This is a dark roast, and that's what they do really, really well here.
