Helens Coffee On The Green

Helen’s is our go to in North Chingford - food is great (the takeaway salads have been a life saver over the years) as is the coffee. Food is really fresh and great options. Helen is also really sweet and lovely. She remembers who you are and makes an effort to get to know you - makes you feel like a part of a community! Best cafe in North Chingford!

A clean , bright & welcoming independent cafe. The food focus is all about quality and flavour , I’ve eaten here several times and have enjoyed everything I’ve ordered , the “Full Gringlish “ breakfast is particularly flavorsome and plenty of it too, the coffee is equally outstanding. As for the service ; 5 stars from me , warm welcome , attentive , quick and efficient . Great value for money

At Helen’s coffee, you’ll find many more things apart from tea and coffee. Such as a variety of flatbreads, pizzas, smoothies, milkshakes, toast, cakes and soft drinks. Helen’s got a little play area for kids as well. I came across some beautiful handmade greeting cards and tot bags for sale, there is a little notice board where other little businesses display their promotions and services too. I really enjoyed having my smoothie and cake overlooking the Green this sunny summer morning.

What a delightful hidden gem!! So pleased we found it. My friend and I visited for coffee/cake on a Monday teatime, after reading lots of lovely reviews. We arrived at 3.30pm, only to discover, they close early on a Monday. However, we were not turned away, but welcomed inside 😍. We had two soya lates and homemade lemon cake. Probably the nicest I've had. All cakes are homemade and look delicious!! Helen was absolutely lovely, so welcoming and warm. Will definitely be returning.
