We’ve long been fans of the food at the original Kaffeine, in Great Titchfield Street, and this branch closer to Oxford Circus keeps up the high standards. The food offering is small and focussed and of fine quality: sandwiches, salads, and various baked goods. A well-filled sandwich nestled in a sourdough baguette, a mixed salad plate from their weekly-changing menu (£5 for small, £7 for large) was tasty and filling. A cappuccino was fine, an espresso well made but served in an unheated cup (which made it cool down too quickly). They have a new espresso machine which does not heat the cups, and in due course they will no doubt solve that problem. Our real complaint: the seating, at high stools, has apparently been designed to be uncomfortable for everyone, regardless of height. Apart from this, Kaffeine remains, as ever, a klass act.
