Great coffee. No hassle.

Probably THE best coffee I've had! And that is really saying something in London. Also such a lovely space/feel.

MONT58 Instant Coffee — First Impressions On opening the jar, the aroma hits immediately, fresh, warm, and inviting. It isn’t overtly chocolatey, but leans towards the depth of dark cocoa rather than anything sweet. The granules themselves are surprisingly light and airy, almost fluffy, with a soft sheen that gives them an almost “fairy-dust” look. Using one teaspoon coffee, with one teaspoon of sugar added, the first sip is genuinely pleasant. The flavour is smooth, light on the tongue, and comfortably balanced. There’s no sharp bitterness, nor any cloying sweetness. Instead, it sits in that ideal middle ground, easy to drink, but still carrying a sense of character. A gentle acidity hums in the background, just enough to lift the profile without taking over. Overall, it’s a well-bodied and very approachable instant coffee. I’d happily recommend giving it a try. 5 Stars – A Coffee Lover’s Gem in Sydenham Mont 58 Coffee in Kirkdale is an absolute gem. What stands out immediately is the friendliness of the staff and owners – always warm, engaging, and up for a good laugh. During quieter times, you’re treated to genuinely interesting conversations, making each visit feel personal and relaxed. The coffee itself is exceptional. The variety of flavours and brewing mediums available to buy is truly impressive – from French press to V60s and other specialised filter mediums. Whether you're after beans, ground coffee, pods, or an espresso blend, they've got you covered. Every option is thoughtfully curated. We even had the chance to attend one of their coffee tasting sessions – an absolute highlight. The owner’s passion is contagious, and his knowledge of global coffee origins, brewing techniques, and the environmental and political factors that influence coffee production is nothing short of fascinating. The shop is clean, modern, and welcoming, and the addition of the outdoor space has brought a lovely, calming atmosphere to the experience. If you’re serious about your coffee – or simply want to enjoy a cup in a place that truly celebrates it – Mont 58 is a must-visit.

Mont58 is hands down my favourite local coffee shop. Delicious coffee, yummy pastries and friendly staff. And they have a wide selection of coffee beans to buy and enjoy at home which they grind to the right size for your coffee maker. We're so lucky to have this gem in Sydenham ❤️

Really nice coffee, warm welcome

Mont58 has fast become a Kirkdale favourite for us. Great coffee, great setting, great team. A coffee and pastry sitting out in the back garden cannot be beaten. Free kids hot chocolates over the summer holidays were the cherry on top 🫶
