Palace Coffee House in Walthamstow

Oh, let me tell you about Palace Coffee House – it's this sweet spot on Hoe Street in London that I've heard such great things about from the reviews. The staff are just brilliant; they're courteous, know their stuff with coffee, and make you feel like a regular from the get-go, which is always a winner for a casual outing. The food and drinks are spot on too – think delicious brownies, excellent hot chocolate, and solid breakfast options that won't set you back much, perfect for a lazy weekend. Plus, with a back room and garden, it's got that inviting atmosphere where you can unwind without the hustle. On the flip side, it's a bit quiet these days with no fresh reviews since last year, and it seems like it might be shut at the moment, so you'd want to double-check before heading over. No online presence makes it harder to plan a visit, but if you're in the area and it's open, it's worth stopping by for a proper feel-good experience – just keep in mind it might not have the full pub vibe if that's what you're after.
