  • Excellent, excellent espresso coffee, and though I'd say the filters are a bit lacking, this must be taken as a small criticism; I'd still drink them. On another note, bizarre review. The crema's too thin? If the espresso tasted perfect that really seems a moot point.

  • I have been visiting ER since it opened and I think it's the best flat white in town . Perhaps, Mocca or Latter is not so good (have never tried) but if you have a passion for a strong and tasty coffee -- this is place for you. I think there is some kind of a joke in this name as 2 world renown hospitals nearby doesn't have an ER:)

  • The staff are very friendly, the coffee tastes good but it isn't HOT!! Can't bear cold coffee so won't be returning.

  • This place is an independent coffee shop star! Excellent beans, love that they do guest coffees but you also gotta love their house, Square Mile. Excellent espresso!

  • We went out of our way to try this place due to all the positive feedback. Perhaps they specialize in lattes of flat whites, in any case, my wife and I ordered two mochas. Both were extremely milky, barely luke-warm, weak in coffee and a faint taste of Choc syrup. We were quite disappointed especially at the price of 3 pounds. Unfortunately we were in a hurry so couldn't give feedback at the time, but if your a mocha lover beware!

  • This place is absolutely fantastic, I have been to a huge selection of coffee shops around London and this rates at the top. A very smooth Latte indeed. Excellent, would highly recommend it to any coffee lover. (stay away from the chains ppl)

  • I've been going here for over a year. Excellent drinks and great staff. @Sarah McIlwaine - shame you didn't enjoy your drink - did you say anything at the time? I've only had a bad drink once and they were really keen to put it right.

  • I've been using this place twice a week for about the last six months. The coffee has been consistently good and the best I have tasted in London. They deserve all the praise they have been getting. I guess the other reviewer likes to go against the crowd.

  • I went to Espresso room with high hopes, it being recommended on Twitter! Quite disappoited, a far too milky flat white! Everyone seems to love it, but I'm sticking to my absolute favourite, Flat White in Berwick St Soho!
