I have been visiting Mono for some time. The manager and his staff provide a friendly and efficient service. Filled hot and cold baguettes and bagels are available and can be made to order. A good selection of hot and cold drinks are offered and most hot drinks come with a small biscuit. Seating is on two floors and at the front of the shop. I have noticed a higher level of staff retention at this café unlike some of the other nearby establishments. Moreover, I have noticed many customers returning to the shop. I usually order a latte and is always milky and refreshing. It is also pleasing to see staff clearing and cleaning tables. Comfortable seating and plenty of tables. Clean and functioning toilet. Background music does not intrude. Welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of Roman Road.

We loved Mono for its simple and honest charm. I’ve had my coffee there few times and it is the nicest coffee in the area. The reason it is the nicest its because it it served with a big honest smile. It is unpretentiously good. And the welcome is very pleasant so I definitely want to come back again. Well done on brightening up Roman Road!

I’ve been going to Mono regularly since it opened and have always found it pleasant and enjoyable. I think it is a cut above all the other local cafes. The outside area is like a continental treat, just the place to enjoy the sun with good coffee and pastries. I like the staff, who are very friendly and genuine. My favourite place in Bow. Ian

I have been going to this coffee shop for a while and have only ever found there coffee to be first class. There danish and carrot cake are top notch to. The shop is small but has outside seating and some more space downstairs. The staff are always happy to see you and thats not always the case in most places along Roman road. So in short if you want a great coffee this is the place to go.

I think the comment left by fmazziratti is a little strong. I have been going there ever since it opened and have never had a bad experience. I don’t often write reviews as time is always an issue for me but feel that I must comment on the last review. I googled Mono London to see what is new and found this. The newspaper recently did a review which was pretty much what I think. The staff are friendly and atmosphere is comfortable. If you don’t want to be surrounded by people as they always seem busy they have a great downstairs area which is quiet. The food here is good for what you are paying for it and I would also like to add that it’s probably the cheapest on the road. The coffee, now that’s something else! It’s great tasting coffee and unlike some coffee shops on the Roman you can add flavour such like syrups and depending on what you like regarding strength they can assist here too. The Brand is great I actually thought this was a franchise business then to be told that it was designed by the owner and his father. What great place to be in when you want a little me time or even meet with some friends. The comment about the customers is so untrue and completely disrespectful towards them. They are loyal as i and my family are and I often sit and have a chat with them. They are local people supporting their local business. I trust you make your own mind up and visit this great establishment. Thank you for your time in reading my review.

Seating area outside had attracted me to this place, once you are inside and order a coffee and a sandwich, all the positive feeling had gone. I do like my coffee and i was assured by a staff member that it is strong and best tasting coffee. after adding two more shots to my cappuchino it still tasted very weak and i think their interprtertation of cappuchino is a coffe with dry froth on the top. Sandwich is more like cheap copy of subways. No identity, no taste for the food or coffee and totally waste of time and money. People sitting outside are more like classless stinking sweaty morons. I would not recommend this place as it would be totally waste of time and money. Only think i can recommend is the Roman road it self, there are plenty more cafes and restaurants so dont be put off the roman road just because of one waste of place café. I will probably sit on the bench or even go in to one of the other cafes and restaurants with air conditioning to taste a proper cup of coffee and realy unique italian bread sandwich etc.

This is a very friendly café with outside seating and plenty of seating inside if raining(more downstairs). Sitting outside you can watch the bustle of the busy market road, which is in the heart of the East End, a lively, friendly, place to shop. There’s a lot to offer in the area in the way of fashion, music, food, and flowers. If you are a history lover Roman Road is situated on the oldest trade route in Britain. This is the route Boudicea took on her way from Colchester to London to burn the Romans, so you will have plenty to imagine watching life pass by sipping a decent coffee or cappuccino with a fresh sandwich made to order with more or less any filling you fancy.
