“ Outstanding coffee! We dropped in for a quick take away cup of coffees and were amazed how good the coffee is - super smooth and nicely strong with a great roasted bean flavour. I am a coffee lover - this one is one of the best I tried in the Wharf. Really recommend. Also the outdoor seats and sofas seemed cozy - definitely a place to chill in the summer. Right across there is a lovely Canary Wharf mini garden so there is a good relaxed vibe. ”
“ Not sure if I want everyone to know how great 640 East is as I don’t like queues! It’s the best coffee on the wharf by a mile. The staff are so friendly and really build a rapport with their customers. Their cakes and bakes are delicious and there is a great selection of cold drinks. It’s the perfect antidote to a tough day in the office and a short visit, even for a takeaway, improves my mood and stress levels. Thank you team! ”
“ Coffee place and bar nestled in the middle of Canary wharf one of the few places where you can get a quiet al fresco drink or sip in the area. Relaxed atmosphere in line with the new tenants joining the Canary Wharf going out scene. Only tried coffee but good choice of milk for vegan and lactose intolerants... Great coffee too. Can't wait to go there for beers. ”
“ We enjoyed excellent coffee and pastries and cakes. The service from the staff was superb and the personal care they demonstrated whilst we were in the cafe was first class and much appreciated. The ambient background music made for a relaxing experience sitting out in very good surroundings. Excellent facilities. Clearly a popular place to go to. ”
“ Amazing coffee, great place and really lovely people working there! I'm normally a filter coffee drinker and have been put onto their Pumpkin Latte and Spanish Latte and they're both fantastic! Particular shout out for the Pumpkin Latte which is made entirely in-house - something that the team were kind enough me through! ”
“ Too cool for school. Come for the coffee, stay for the good music playlist. The staff are friendly and service is quick. The pastries and baked goods are oversized and tempting, but I didn’t try them this time. There is some good volume to the music outside, with so many tables and chairs around I can imagine it having an amazing atmosphere after work hours or at lunch. I’ll come back for some cocktails one day in the summer for sure! ”
“ Good bar to come to each time I’m in town! Well priced rose! ”
“ The atmosphere is great and drinks really tasty. We had a few pints, aperol spritz and the area was comfortable with vibey music as well. ”
