Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Windlesham

"What: Sky Garden may be known for its lush greenery (the perfect backdrop for an impromptu photoshoot), but its sprawling views of the capital are also worth a mention. The Sky Pod bar, which isn’t separated from the rest of the space, allows guests to stand around admiring the views or pull up a chair to rest their legs. All the usual drinks can be found here (including a selection of signature cocktails), while the food menu features sharing platters of charcuterie, seafood or dessert."

"Chin Chin Ice Cream was lauded as Europe's first liquid nitrogen ice cream parlour when it opened up in 2010 and it hasn’t taken long for that style to get a foothold in the favour of the general populace. Chin Chin now boasts multiple outlets across London where the clever clogs behind the counter are hand-churning enticing ice cream flavours like tonka bean and burnt butter caramel with liquid nitrogen. Adding liquid nitrogen means that the fat and water particles in the ice cream remain small and tightly knitted together during the freezing operation, resulting in intensely creamy ice cream."

"The original Camden parlour is now back open for fans of Chin Chin’s famous ice creams (churned with the aid of liquid nitrogen for a rich, dense, almost chewy texture.) They are available by the scoop with toppings, but there are also a dozen or so full-on dishes making use of them, from a tiramisu sundae to nachos with chargrilled pineapple, salted-caramel sauce, dark-chocolate ice cream and blue-corn waffle tacos. Open Friday — Sunday, 12 p.m."

"Chin Chin pioneered the use of liquid nitrogen to make ice cream in a retail setting when it opened its first ice cream ‘lab’ in Camden Lock in 2010. Its founders were convinced that hand churning with liquid nitrogen was better than any other method, and they had stumbled on the future of ice cream. Nowadays, the company has grown to three locations and over 300 innovative flavours, from sweetcorn to wild blueberry to coffee and olive oil."

"The menu at this Soho dessert stop features a lot of the delicious treats mentioned on this blog, but most famous are their biskies – a biscuit/cookie/cake hybrid filled with tasty buttercream, jams and caramels. Flavours include passion fruit and salted caramel, apple crumble, chocolate lava and miso caramel. If you’re feeling extra naughty, order one of their indulgent freakshakes to go with it."

"Vanilla sponge with apple jam, cinnamon buttercream – custardy, sweet, perfectly spiced – crispy white chocolate pearls, biscuit crumbs and an apple crisp to finish. It has all the flavours of a traditional apple pie, but it’s lighter and wonderfully soft. 20 Brewer St, London W1F 0SJ. Currently online only."

"It’s pretty, it’s pink and the cakes and treats are equally as gorgeous to eat as well as look at. Their famous for their ‘biskie’ creations which are a cross between a cake and a cookie sandwiched with cream or chocolate. If you prefer you can go for one of their perfectly presented cakes by the slice."

"Four years ago, acclaimed patissiere Dominique Ansel gave to the pastry world the gift it didn’t know it wanted. The Cronut, a cross between a croissant and a doughnut, was hailed by TIME magazine as one of the greatest inventions of the year. This gratuitously enjoyable creation – a ring of sugary, flakey, layered pastry – is now served up in Ansel’s Belgravia bakery with changing monthly flavours – if you’re popping down today, October is banana and toasted oat ganache."

"No dessert round-up is complete without a mention of the Cronut. This croissant-donut hybrid is the creation of French-American chef, Dominique Ansel. He first served it at his bakery in Soho, Manhattan and is now it is the holy-grail of breakfasts treats in London."

"Award-winning Nomad Bakery is the perfect place to spend some time with your kids. It has a range of activities for the kids to get involved in, as well as a relaxed environment for parents as well. Where: Prospect Street, Caversham"

"Residing within the four-star Royal Adelaide Hotel, just five minutes from Windsor Castle, the Garden Restaurant offers a varied menu that caters to everyone from solo business travellers to friends meeting for lunch and couples on a romantic evening out. Sandwiches and burgers make it a good lunch stop."

"Restaurants Contemporary European King’s Cross. This polished, all-day ‘grand café’ has a gigantic L-shaped terrace and a plum location on the pedestrianised bit between King’s Cross and St Pancras stations. There’s a year-round approach to alfresco dining too: the outdoor space is thoughtfully equipped with heaters, blankets and umbrellas."

"Swerving all those touristy stereotypes, Sugo peddles the kind of street food you’d find in Rome, Palermo and other Italian cities. Our top picks from its site in Vinegar Yard are the (veggie) mushroom and truffle arancini and the vegan chickpea fries slathered in white truffle aïoli, sun-dried tomato sauce and parmesan, but for something more substantial it’s a toss-up between the ‘melting meatballs’ in tomato passata and the pesto chicken (with more of that aïoli). Tip: have your chosen main boxed up with brown rice and salad – Sugo’s heavily Instagrammed ciabatta ‘pockets’ are way too bready and filling after all those snacks."

"I wonder how many of those souls queuing for hours to enter Westminster Abbey have ever broken away to venture inside this fascinating Westminster church. St Margaret’s Church Westminster is located in the churchyard of the Abbey,and is often called the ‘parish church of the House of Commons’. It is often frequented by politicians and parliamentarians, and the connection dates back to the 17th century when Puritan MPs started to worship there as they disapproved of the style of worship in Westminster Abbey."

"The parish church of Parliament is next to Westminster Abbey. Samuel Pepys got wed here and Sir Walter Raleigh is buried in the yard"

"A post shared by C R Y S T A L (@ourlifeinseasons) on Sep 9, 2016 at 1:44am PDT. Built to cater to a burgeoning population in 1824, St Luke’s is one of the earliest Gothic Revival churches in London. It’s also, with a nave that measures 60ft high, one of the tallest in the city, too."

"Restaurants Middle Eastern Stoke Newington. Stokey gives good brunch, but The Good Egg is where you’ll find queues out the door come the weekend. This stylish café with an open kitchen is a breezy daytime hangout and its brunch menu holds heaps of Middle-Eastern delights: think shakshuka topped with baked eggs, or bacon-and-egg pita with date jam, plus lots of exotic nibbles to share and a cardamom-infused coffee cocktail to sample."

"Breakfast lovers get excited as The Good Egg has landed in Kingly Court and will be serving up their Jewish influenced menu day-to-night."
