Prada Caffé at Harrods, Knightsbridge

When it opened in April last year, it certainly arrived with a buzz. Bringing a slice of Milan to London's luxe department store, the Prada Caffé features monochrome chequered floors, pale green hues and tableware emblazoned with the recognisable logo. Choose from Italian coffee, wines and signature cocktails as you tuck into breakfast dishes, pizzettes, burrata or a whole host of dainty pastries.

Tiffany Blue Box Café at Harrods, Knightsbridge

Long before Prada took over Harrods, Tiffany was doing its thing with baked goods, afternoon tea, and drinks on the ground floor of the Knightsbridge shop. From cute teapots to tiered stands and even the interior design, every inch of this cafe sings to the brand's statement blue. Make yours a breakfast at Tiffany, finished off with a Champagne cocktail à la Holly Golightly.

Ralph's Coffee, Mayfair

Making cawfee cute since 2014, Ralph's Coffee first launched in NYC and has since made its way over to New Bond Street. As it's one of the more famous cafes in London, expect queues come the weekend and Instagrammers snapping away. We've seen Wimbledon-themed set-ups, Christmas installations to rival Cartier across the street, and plenty more from Ralph Lauren's much-loved alfresco brewing spot.

Arket Café, Regent Street

High-street meets high-end at Arket, with quality essentials at the forefront of this Scandi brand. Swing by the Regent Street outlet, where you'll be met with an in-store coffee shop touting vegan and vegetarian bites, fresh coffees, and a minimal aesthetic. It's not just tees and hoodies for sale here, guys.

From the same group as H&M, Arket promises quality from its clothing to its coffee.

Carhartt Coffee, King's Cross

For those of you after something a little more down to earth, there's Carhartt Coffee. Over the years, the label has shifted from simply being functional workwear to becoming a staple in any trendy kid's closet. Not only will you find exclusive products in the King's Cross store, but also a compact, fuss-free coffee shop plus wifi and a small counter for working.

Marchesi 1824 by Prada, Mayfair

Chocolates, pastries and baked goods are the name of the game at Marchesi 1824. A historic cafe that was opened almost 200 years ago in Milan, it was bought by the Prada Group and has since found another home on Mount Street. Think sourdough panettone, opulent Christmas cookies, decadent eggs come Easter, and aperetivo hours soaked in Campari.
