Formerly a Victorian toilet, built around 1890 and mothballed in the 1960’s, the Attendant has been dormant for more than fifty years before being lovingly transformed into one of Europe’s most unique espresso & food bar spaces. After two-years planning and restoration the old Attendant’s office has been turned into a little kitchen and the original porcelain urinals have become an inspired coffee bench with green seating to match the original Victorian floor tiles.
Attendant Fitzrovia has been home to various events throughout the years from Birthday Parties and Weddings to Corporate after work events. The venue provides affordable pricing and a lot of flexibility for event bookers. You can choose to order catering from the venue or alternatively you dry hire the space, bring in external catering or even provide your own alcohol without a corkage fee! If you want to wow your guests with a truly unique and intimate event, you have found the perfect venue!

February 2024To say the place is tiny is an understatement, but they make it work so well! The place was packed, with all 13 seats taken up when we arrived. We only waited 10 minutes before a table opened up. Service was friendly and quick. The food was delicious. The decor was stunning, all original tiles on the walls and floor, with some of the original fittings as well. Attendant is a must see in my opinion!

March 2024Visited on Friday and have to say the coffee and service was amazing. Especially from Roman who was really kind, passionate and knowledgable. The coffee and food were both great. Worth a visit not just for the location.

March 2024The place is really quirky! Toilet bowls as decoration is definitely rare. Food were good as well as the coffee. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because of the amount of space you have in the coffee shop. I would suggest to come earlier to get a spot for breakfast. The queue starts to get longer by 10.30am

February 2024Attendant Coffee Roasters is a unique renovated toilet stalls- coffee shop from the Victorian era. It is placed underground, so perfect for a rainy day coffee date. I visited in the morning, and enjoyed my americano (£3,5) and my salmon bagel (£7,5). The coffee was good quality, strong, workout being bitter. The salmon bagel was also decent for the price. Worth visiting for a quirky and friendly ambience! The service was exceptionally good, friendly and attentive staff really shined throughout my visit and make me feel very comfortable and taken care of.

February 2024Unique coffee shop. It was converted from a Victorian era public toilet. They kept the porcelain urinals and the tiles are the original ones too. The place is busy, even off peak it is still hard to find a seat. To be honest it's really small and approx 14 people can have a seat at the same time. The coffee isn't special at all. But I appreciated the decaf option with coconut/ oat milk a lot. The staff was nice and friendly enough. I paid over £10 for 2 small drinks with alternative milk. Bit pricey, right?
