14 best coffee shops in London to take your date this Valentine’s Day

Coffee dates are an ideal choice for a first date. However, here at UK Coffee Week we are convinced that grabbing a delicious cup of coffee is perfect for any stage in the dating journey. Forget about the lengthy dinners, silent cinema screenings and chilly walks in the park (who does that in the middle of February?), go for a great cup of coffee instead.

So, without further ado, let us take you on a tour of our top 14 Valentine Day’s coffee spots in London!
