Anyway, the best coffee that I have tasted in London is definitely the one at Monmouth Coffee. They have one in Covent Garden on Monmouth Street (where else?), and a branch at Borough market (my favorite market, which I will write about soon). There's always a long que at borough market, but believe me, it is worth it.
i don't know what the difference is really, but the coffee there are fresh, has beautiful aroma and a very deep taste. The milk they use too is different I think. It's much richer than the coffee you would taste, for instance at starbucks.
The coffee at monmouth will be something that I will really miss from London. But today I went to a cafe in Edinburgh near Old College called Black Medicine Coffee Co., and I really enjoyed their cappuccino. They have many nice looking independent cafes here in edinburgh, and I look forward to visiting different ones throughout the year. Maybe I can even try to start a novel at the Elephant House...
