Rosalind’s

i look up to any small business owner who dares to venture into the food space. it’s a dream to own and operate a little shop with breakfast, lunch and some sweets.
and because i have such a respect for the small business owner of rosalind’s, i write well-​intentioned:
rosalind’s is a quaint little shop, take-​away only, removed from the chaos of regent street. the shop has soup, daily mains (chicken, vegetarian, tarts, fish, etc), salad fare, breakfast pastries and cakes. i’ve been there a few times now looking to get hooked and inspired. while everything is ok, i just don’t feel the value for the price… i think a competitor down the street could provide something comparable for less. expect lunch (main + salad) to be £8 — i usually target £5−6 for the same quality and quantity in our area. otherwise, i’ll go to a sit down place.
so really, my beef is the menu pricing. either they lack scale or they need to do better.

Tucked behind Oxford Circus, Rosalind’s is an intimate takeaway across the road from the Cookery School which shares the same management.
It’s not just a coffee house, but oh the coffee, the coffee, the coffee.
I RAVED about it at work, I said that was the nicest cup of coffee I’d had in MONTHS, thoroughly DELICIOUS beyond all reason. At the risk of sounding like I have shares in this place (I don’t!), Rosalind’s Kitchen might just make one of the tastiest most perfect coffees I have ever had in my life. Not surprising, considering these guys are rabid about where the beans come from, how they’re roasted, and how the coffee is prepared.
— I should add: when I was younger, I used to be able to tell the difference between Kenyan and Columbian by taste alone don’t know if I can still do it but that boast was to add credibility to how much I rate this coffee.
And if you get there in the morning, there are sometimes free samples of CAKE to go with the coffee it’s like a sweet-​tooth caffeine freak’s dream! It’s not been open for long, but the kitchen’s already offering healthy lunch deliveries for nearby busy offices, and is open for passerby breakfasters like me as well as walk-​in lunch warriors.
Rosalind, you are one seriously psychic lady. I would walk a mile out of my way for another cup of that coffee. And I would be walking on air for quite a while after drinking it!
