Concrete - Lambeth

We stopped by to pick up tickets and noticed this cafe with a beautiful view of the Thames. The coffee was delicious and well-made, and the mince crumble (similar to a slice of mince pie) was absolutely delightful.

This small café is perfect for a quick coffee stop. The prices are fair and the atmosphere is cozy. It wasn't too crowded, so you can enjoy your meal without feeling hurried. I would definitely return.

As the rain was torrential after a great afternoon of Ballroom Latin dancing at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, I decided to pop to their Cafe, known as The Concrete Cafe on their menu. I'm so glad I did. My lovely waitress Erene was smiley and friendly and, as a fellow vegan, she was able to highly recommend my choice of the vegan Glazed Chocolate Avocado cup cake, which was heavenly .There were other vegan offerings which I was surprised and delighted by and at least two non dairy milks to choose from for my tea. It's lovely to be in a fully glazed cafe, even on rainy day, so this was the perfect end to my afternoon of dancing I'm at the Royal Festival Hall Queen Elizabeth Hall usually every 2-3 weeks for dance events so I have a feeling I'll be a very regular patron of this lovely cafe, whether it's raining or not.

Went in to Concrete cafe to have a quick drink before dinner. As the name suggests, ambience and decor is pretty concrete. Nothing wrong with that. It’s at the heart of southbank, modern art influence. I’d a honey brewed beer which was nice; wife had a cocktail.. we had this nuts mix which was quite unique.. Overall good experience..

Although the restaurant was small and didn't have any exceptional features, I still fondly remember my visit there. The music was enjoyable, the drinks were decent (though some cocktails were not great), and the prices were reasonable. On a crowded sunny day by the waterloo where locals and tourists were bustling about, we stumbled upon it and stopped in for a drink or two. Due to limited seating, we had to stand by the bar. While I wouldn't mind returning, it wouldn't be my top choice. Overall, it was an okay experience.
