What we're looking at here are the modern coffee focused chain formats typified by the global brand Starbucks.

 

In London the three leading chains are Starbucks, Caffe Nero and Costa Coffee. In most of London you'll be lucky to walk 100 yards without at least one of them being available and you'll find branches within everything from supermarkets to book shops too.


General proposition is a range of coffees, tea and perhaps iced drink, milk shakes and fruit based drinks with a selection of muffins, sandwiches, pastries etc with seating ranging from bar stools to leather sofas.

 

There are of course lots of other outlets that will serve you coffee from pubs to general cafes, pubs and restaurants that may well be a lot, lot cheaper.


Earl's Court Kensington

Price checks here were taken from the respective chains catchment area in Earl's Court Kensington, a major budget hotel district in the centre of London and particularly of interest to those arriving in London through Heathrow Airport, the main airport for London. There is a convenient fast, cheap and frequent London Underground service direct to Heathrow from Earl's Court.

 

So if you have one eye on the wallet and are using Heathrow, Earl's Court is a great benchmark to compare accommodations against.
