“Great coffee in a cool setting with lovely staff.”

Montgomery Square is one of the most attractive public spaces in Canary Wharf. Surrounded by modern architecture, waterside views, cafés, and office towers, it offers a pleasant atmosphere whether you’re working nearby or simply exploring the area. The square is well maintained, clean, and benefits from excellent transport connections via the Jubilee line, DLR, and Elizabeth line. What stands out most is the balance between the busy financial district environment and the open public space. There are plenty of places to sit, grab a coffee, or enjoy lunch outdoors.

Too cool for school. Come for the coffee, stay for the good music playlist. The staff are friendly and service is quick. The pastries and baked goods are oversized and tempting, but I didn’t try them this time. There is some good volume to the music outside, with so many tables and chairs around I can imagine it having an amazing atmosphere after work hours or at lunch. I’ll come back for some cocktails one day in the summer for sure!

We ordered an earl grey tea, coffee ice cream, and iced ginger lemon tea. The tea was fine, the coffee ice cream was great, tasty, and refreshing in the summer heat. The coffee shop is situated in a great location. The ginger lemon tea had quite a bit of ginger in which was unpleasant (personally). I would definitely go again and try a different drink and get the coffee ice cream!

Serves passable coffee at pace to the many nearby office workers. Interestingly housed in a shipping container, with nearly all seating outside. Standard bakery range. Loses a point for lazily serving its hot drinks in takeaway cups that can’t be recycled.
