Caffe Latino Store

You're walking down Tower Bridge Road and you need coffee that doesn't taste like it's been sitting under a heat lamp since 6am. This is where you duck in. There's a real commitment to doing things the Italian way here—the kind of place where the staff will actually chat to you about what you're drinking rather than just sliding a cup across the counter. It's the sort of café that's become a proper fixture for locals in this part of SE1, pulling in everyone from office workers to people who've wandered over from Borough Market and realised they've gone the wrong way.
