If you’ve ever found yourself wandering through Notting Hill — oat flat white in hand, pastel houses in the background — you’ll know it’s basically London’s unofficial coffee capital.
From tiny, plant-filled cafés that feel like your most aesthetically pleasing Pinterest board come to life, to low-key espresso bars that take their beans seriously, this neighbourhood does caffeine with style.
PIN FOR LATER 📌
I’ve lost count of how many coffee spots I’ve “just popped into for one quick cup” only to end up staying for hours, people-watching or catching up with the girlies over another round. Because that’s the thing about Notting Hill — coffee here isn’t just a pit stop, it’s actually a ritual.
So, if your idea of a perfect Saturday involves a great brew, a flaky croissant, and a corner seat with main character energy, these are the 12 places that do it best!
1. Kuro Coffee
- Address: 3 Hillgate Street, Notting Hill, London, W8 7SP
- Hours: 7 am – 5 pm Monday – Saturday, 8 am – 5 pm Sunday
Let’s start strong. Kuro Coffee, just a short stroll from Notting Hill Gate Station, has that quietly confident energy only truly good coffee shops have. Minimalist interiors, impeccable beans, and baristas who can talk you through every roast on the menu without an ounce of pretension — it’s the sort of place that feels like home after your first visit. The flat white here is smooth, perfectly balanced, and served in cups you’ll want to smuggle home (don’t!).
2. Notting Hill Coffee Project
- Address: 63 Notting Hill Gate, London W11 3JS
- Hours: 7am – 5pm Monday – Friday, 8am – 5pm weekends
A local favourite near Portobello Road, The Coffee Project is the definition of effortless cool. You’ll spot it by the line of locals waiting for their morning fix and the subtle hum of espresso machines doing the Lord’s work. The space itself is a blend of industrial and cosy — exposed brick, a few plants, and the scent of fresh beans in the air.
3. Farm Girl Café
- Address: 59A Portobello Road, London W11 3DB England
- Hours: 8.30am–5pm Monday – Saturday, 9am–5pm weekends
Tucked behind the chaos of Portobello Road Market, Farm Girl is that effortlessly photogenic spot every London coffee lover knows — all pink lattes, matcha pancakes, and that signature Aussie-meets-Notting-Hill vibe. It’s busy, yes, but the energy feels good — buzzy yet relaxed, with a menu that leans wholesome but never dull. It’s also a great place to refuel mid-travel day, especially if you’re exploring the markets or wandering south toward Holland Park.
FUN FACT: Notting Hill wasn’t always pastel perfection — in the ’60s it was London’s bohemian heart, and home to the first Notting Hill Carnival, now Europe’s biggest street festival.
4. Beam
- Address: 103 Westbourne Grove, Notting Hill, London, W2 4UW
- Hours: 8:00am–6pm Mon-Sun
Technically just on the edge of Notting Hill, Beam’s interiors are warm and light-filled — think exposed brick, mismatched ceramics, and sunlight pouring across polished wood tables. It’s the kind of coffee shop where brunch somehow turns into lunch, and no one’s mad about it. The menu features hearty, flavour-packed dishes (the shakshuka is a must!), paired with smooth, strong coffee made from ethically sourced beans.
5. Daylesford Organic
- Address: 208-212 Westbourne Grove, London W11 2RH
- Hours: 8am – 8:30pm Monday – Saturday
If your London dream morning involves organic pastries, freshly made food, and beautifully presented flat whites, Daylesford Organic is your spot. Set just off Westbourne Grove, it’s chic, bright, and buzzing — a polished place that still feels grounded. The menu is stacked with farm-to-table goodness, and their coffee (made from house-roasted beans) is as pure as their aesthetic.

It’s impossible to talk about Notting Hill without mentioning Granger & Co., Bill Granger’s Australian café that basically defined the breezy, sunlit brunch aesthetic. The queue might test your patience, but the first sip of their coffee (made with rich, caramel-toned beans) makes it worth it. It’s a place that nails the balance between polished and relaxed — and TBH, if you don’t Instagram the interiors, did you even go?
