Detour, Askew Rd, Shepherd's Bush

Excellent coffee, incredibly friendly owner









Flat white: £2.40, good
Florentine: £1.50, excellent - but how can they make any money?! She said her prices were too low. 

Really lovely owner, Kelly - I popped in because the friendly accountant down the road suggested it, got chatting, and ahe then sat down with me for about 40 mins talking through what she'd done, costs, suppliers... She took it over about a year ago, the refurbished three months ago - adding the big wall photo, the dark grey and the orange to the existing light grey. She said it made a massive difference - it feels like a new place, she's getting four times the custom on a Sunday that she got a year ago. 

Inspiring, and very generous with her time and advice.
