Coca Bean Cafe was the first choice to visit in Green Street area on a Friday night meetup. The decor was warm and inviting. Staff were attentive and welcoming. Service was good, seating was comfortable, although it would do well if it's regularly checked for cleanliness after every customer. As they were busy, it was understandable for the oversight. Drink chai/tea was just above warm, not piping hot as appreciated few months ago in previous visit. Carrot cake tasted good, however, was not as moist as expected. Punjabi samosa/Shingara was not crispy as before, however, they will make it fresh if you ask and willing to wait. They have outside seating and it was quite busy at 11pm on a Friday night in early July. Closed at midnight so good place to spend late night.

Best place in East London to have Bangladeshi traditional tea and food. The price is exceptionally reasonable. Must try...

I've only had their karak chai tea. The karak chai tea is amazing and I would say it's much better than the popular chai shop next door. They also don't play any music so it's much more taqwa friendly.

Went here today to dine in. Fantastic service delicious food We had the large desi breakfast with real italian coffee and desi tea couldnt find any faults Only feedback would be the homemade parathas could be a little fluffier. I would strongly recommend this place.
