Is Intrepid Bakers a good place a coffee break

Back with another coffee shop review. You know I go around trying as many coffee shops as I can and today's victim was Intrepid Bakers.

This is another (kind of) local coffee shop for me here in London but I have not visited before, because there are a few in that area and this one never caught my eye. And when there are a lot of choices, you need to stand out in some way, otherwise I will probably end up picking a different place.

They did have great wi fi and the place looked nice. Cool decoration, warm and welcoming. As you can see people feel comfortable staying for a while, maybe even getting some work done.

Nice coffee machine, with the coffee waiting for us. The staff was very friendly and helpful as well. And at a first sigh everything felt and looked great.

The decoration of the place was very simple but the open space with these simple graphics complemented each other. It is always great to look around for a while to see what's happening in the place.

They have an open kitchen so you can see they baking all the fresh goods that look and smell great. I also forgot to photograph when entering the shop and forgot to capture them when I was leaving. So you will have to take my word for it. Everything looked great and looked delicious.

But I think by looking at the place and it's vibe you also can imagine how awesome and amazing their baked goods might be.

I went a little wild with the photos on this place today and I apologise for it. But I wanted to give you a good perspective of the place and I wanted to try and feel the atmosphere as if you were there with me having a coffee.

The coffee is the really important part that I want to talk to you all. Because as you know this is a coffee shop review, and leaving a review of a coffee shop without trying the coffee wouldn't be a fair review.

And sadly, this is one of those times when I don't have good news. Although the coffee looks great, it tastes awful. And I mean it, it was terrible.

One thing I am sure, I will never stop at Intrepid Bakers to drink coffee. It pains me to say this, because everything else was very nice. In cases when everything is great but the coffee not, it always make it hard for me to leave a not so good review. But I have to be honest.

On another positive note once again. Here's something else good, a toilet for the men, the women and everyone in between. We love equality for everyone.

Final thoughts, great place with a nice atmosphere and good service, the baked good looked great and delicious but the coffee was really horrible. Will never stop by for coffee never again but who know a juice or a cake!

Today was not a good one. That coffee was awful. Sadly buah

This is one of the places that definitely had some pretty good designers’ work behind and I can just admire the owners. You can either have some simple and clean looking place, or you can decide to dive into the deep and create a sophisticated coffee shop like this one.

I would definitely enjoy having a drink here and if the coffee turns out to be good that would be a pretty solid advantage too.

In the end of the review. It is the coffee review, spoiler alert, it is terrible :( sadly

That’s why I wrote that “IF coffee turns out to be good…” 😁

Sadly, the horrible coffee is all around us and there is a handful of places that will serve you a good cup.

Best wishes!

It's unfortunate, after so many wonders of the place, which you expected the best, it was too horrible, for not serving good coffee, It took away many points from the place, a cafeteria must serve the best coffee in the world, Keep looking for more coffee shop reviews, the next one will be better.
🤗🥰

yeah. That is true. There's always the next coffee shop indeed

That's the attitude, greetings 🥰

Nothing better than an open kitchen, where you can see what is being cooked for you!
In a very nice place!
Loved your cover photo! I came in to read your post attracted by it.

Thanks. Yeah usually my coffee reviews, my covers are always very similar and I wanted to do something a little bit different in case the people were getting tired of those :D
