The strawberry shortcake and matcha latte is soooooo good. Not too sweet at all! Some might not like how subtle the sweetness is, but just enough to taste the flavour. Very soft and moist cakes- def recommend! Very busy especially at night and limited seating. But we’re able to sit and chill for a bit which is nice.

In the UK, the cakes I've had are generally sweeter, and the cake texture tends to be denser. I personally prefer the soft and fluffy Japanese sponge cakes paired with light, smooth, and mildly sweet fresh cream. I was delighted to find this Japanese cake shop. Due to its popularity, there was a longer wait for seating, but seeing the array of exquisite cakes made me very excited. Although the prices of the cakes were a bit high, the quality was truly satisfying. It was difficult to choose among the different cakes because each one was enticing and I wanted to try them all. In the end, I selected a few cakes, and each one was incredibly delicious. The restaurant had a Japanese countryside-themed decor, creating a feeling of being in a Japanese cafe. The staff were friendly and polite, and they kindly introduced each cake to us, making us feel satisfying.

Great vibes, excellent service and a good amount of seating! The espresso drinks were some of the smoothest and satisfying drinks of our trip to London. I thoroughly enjoyed the egg mayo sando and my partner loved the matcha croissant. It's definitely worth a visit for some coffee and pastries!

The cakes and coffee are as always delicious 😋 Very close to what one would find in Japan. The disappointing bit was the service, quite impolite, unwelcoming and rude at times. the cafe was a bit busy and we first thought this was the reason, but even when ordering extras at times when no one was around we were met with various unpleasantries. I really prefer the Ealing branch.

Spent a very nice time in this beautiful cafe. Beautiful interior, the atmosphere is calming. The drinks are well done, a very special mention for the Chicken Teriyaki Sandwich which tasted INCREDIBLE. Will definitely come back.

Love the sesame latte and matcha cake rolls. Will definitely come back again. May be hard to get a seat during peak hours.

Having tried WA CAFE several times over the year, I would definitely say the white grapes shortcake I tried today is my favourite at all. Just the perfect balance of sweetness with the cream and fluffy cakes and sourness from the white grapes (previously I found some of their other cakes rather too sweet for me!) The place is fairly small and it gets busy rather quickly as the day goes so you might have to wait for a bit or be lucky to grab a table for eat-in. Overall a good selection of cakes and tea for a short tea break!

Food and service were great, but seating is limited in the Covent Garden branch and we had to queue a while to get a seat on a Saturday. The shop was also to hot, it felt like they were running the heating in summer. But eating the Matcha Tiramisu was like walking on clouds- absolutely divine!
