"There’s something almost cinematic about stepping into Coffee Waves at London Plaza. Between the rich aroma of fresh-ground beans and the subtle buzz of conversation, the café pulses with a kind of creative energy that hits the soul before the caffeine even does. I’ve visited my fair share of coffee spots, but something about this one feels… alive. Let’s start with what I liked: the ambiance is spot-on. Minimalist but not cold, cozy but not cluttered. There’s just enough room to breathe, yet not so much that you feel disconnected. The music—mostly indie, lo-fi, and mellow jazz—sets a thoughtful tone without being intrusive. It’s the kind of place where you could write a song, finish a project, or just lose yourself in a good book while sipping a perfectly pulled espresso. The baristas know their craft. I ordered a flat white with oat milk and it was dialed in—creamy, balanced, and not scorched like you find at the chains. The beans are clearly well-sourced, and their rotating single-origin options show they care about more than just pushing volume. Now, if I had to critique one thing, it would be the seating. While aesthetically pleasing, the chairs are a bit too rigid for longer stays. After about an hour, you start shifting around, trying to find the sweet spot. A few softer options or a bench with some back support wouldn’t hurt, especially for those of us who treat cafés like second studios. Overall, Coffee Waves at London Plaza hits the mark. It’s not just a café—it’s an experience, a vibe. A wave worth catching. And with a few adjustments, it could be an even better one."

"Fresh, clean and cosy coffee shop in european style. Coffe and sandwiches are really good. Prices are good. Gelato is tasty and not too sweet. 100% recommended!"

"Great coffee and food, pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommend if you are looking for a cozy and calm coffee place."

"Perfect coffee shop! Spacious and clean. Yummy coffee and breakfast. They even have a private conference room to rent out."

"I typically go to the Alameda Location, one of the few times I have been here and the fact that they allow small kids (13 year olds) UNSUPERVISED stinks! I come here to either work, relax, or study and they are SO loud it gives daycare vibes. Avoid coming during the school day if you don't want to feel like you're at a playground."
