The Yurt Café

We opened in 2016 as London’s first Yurt café and have evolved over the years to include the community hub and stretch tent.

Our aim is to create an affordable café offering locally sourced food and a great atmosphere to connect with others. Any profits we make from the Yurt café goes towards providing activities for the local community.

We hope that everyone who walks through our door has a pleasant time and wants to come back again. Our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices extends beyond the plate. We aim to provide food for the soul, wanting you to feel renewed and refreshed so that your Yurt experience continues when you leave.

We’re absolutely thrilled to launch our evening openings! Come and join us every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 5–8pm, perfect for making the most of those long summer evenings.

We’ve got a brand new, seriously tasty menu, including our crowd favourite beef brisket bun, homemade flatbreads with baba ganoush, and a mouthwatering pulled jackfruit bun.

Don’t miss out on golden evenings in our bright and sunny precinct, the perfect spot for a sunset bite and a chilled drink.

See you there!

At The Yurt Café, we care about serving great coffee because we believe every cup is a little treat to enjoy and look forward to each day. 

We proudly serve coffee from Mission Coffee Works, a speciality roaster that sources beans from smallholder farmers. Their coffee is ethically sourced within a sustainability framework, ensuring minimal environmental impact while maximising economic support for the communities that grow it.

We offer an extensive menu for breakfast, lunch, and brunch with a variety of drink options. Our breakfast menu includes light and healthy options like granola with coconut yogurt and hearty options like full English breakfast.

Our lunch menu includes a variety of delicious options such as fresh, house-made salads, mouthwatering focaccias, and freshly made soups. Perfect for those on the go or looking for a quick bite during lunchtime. And of course, you can wash it all down with our selection of refreshing iced coffees or a selection of cold drinks.

We believe that everyone should be able to enjoy a delicious meal, regardless of their dietary preferences or restrictions. Our vegan and vegetarian options are just as delicious and satisfying as our regular menu items.

We offer vegan and vegetarian breakfast options such as avocado toast or vegan sausage sandwiches.

We also have a selection of plant-based milk options for those who prefer non-dairy alternatives.

We're open from 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, and from 9am to 5pm on Saturday & Sunday.
