The Lodge Space: Yoga & Fitness Studio, Café and Treatment Centre

Fantastic experience: I was just trying to find a cozy cafe on a rainy day and I really enjoyed this place. I am biased to like it more because of the beautiful Buddha statue in the back and also Ganesh and smaller statues throughout. Might not be everyone’s vibe, but I loved it. The pastry was great, the cappuccino seemed perfect. The berry smoothie was a bit watered down for me, but still enjoyed it.

Fantastic experience: I love this place so much!

Negative experience: STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE IF YOU'RE BLACK OR BROWN. Terrible customer service. Only my second time using this space within the span of 2 weeks and bought coffee both times. I was quietly working away on my laptop with a friend on the sofas near the front entrance, when one of the workers Marcus was saying I have to buy food if I want to continue to be there, which I found strange and random. I don't like the food so I just stuck to my drink. Also noticed MOST of the other customers didnt have food either and just a drink like me- but were never questioned on it. Then Lisa who is apparently the manager there, passive aggressively said you can't use our space and WiFi for free and I said I have bought a drink and she said when the drink runs out you have to keep buying here and I said everyone drinks at different speeds and she said no you should be done in an hour. So apparently Lodge space expects customers to buy a drink every hour. I did not see them speak to any of the other customers btw, most of whom seemed to have only got one coffee or a cake next to them. Lisa also said there are people who could be occupying the space we're using and paying more. The space was mostly EMPTY when we were there. There were hardly anyone there as its MONDAY AFTERNOON, most wfh people are at Starbucks or Costa! So the space I was occupying would have been empty. They are lucky to have me and my friend there buying coffee and banana coz nobody is replacing us out here at this time. Anyway if you're BAME please protect yourself and STAY AWAY from this space because Marcus and Lisa will be sure to be unnecessarily condescending and unwelcoming. Considering its supposed to be a "safe space and community hub" where apparently the Lodge Space wants more people from the local community to spend time- its only my second time coming and I literally left half way in the middle of my work because of how unpleasantly me and my friend were being treated and pestered during our work time there. I run a global organisation running in over 15 countries- its a shame I was made to feel unwelcome because I really liked that space initially was spreading the word about it to bring more people to support this space. You best believe thanks to the employees Marcus and Lisa we will never come to work in this space again and will make sure non of my team members and contacts ever support this passive aggressive non welcoming space again. FYI the owner is actually nice and has good intentions with this space. So I hope they will consider VERY carefully who they hire and should probably let go of any employees giving bad energy to customers like this. A beautiful space like this should encompass kindness and understanding. If Marcus and Lisa approached us with openness and genuine sincerity- we would happily provide support ourselves by buying more without feeling forced into it or highly pressured and made to feel we don't belong in this space. I have never stepped into a coffee shop as unwelcoming as Lodge space hence why this is my first time negatively reviewing a space like this. I really hope I never have to again. But I felt the need to do this review to protect anyone else from the BAME community from going through what we did. Look for peace elsewhere ✨️

Positive experience: Great place, good service and healthy food. Attentive and polite staff, and a generally calm vibe.

Fantastic experience: Really lovely space with an incredible range of yoga classes. I came here often to centre myself and relax whilst living in London for 2 busy years. ❤️

Fantastic experience: My best exercise place and love the courses there!

Negative experience: I love this place and my favourite is cold iced chocolate I ordered and the lady brought me hot and when I told her she brought back cold but it taste so bad. I am sitting and working right now and I am very disappointed.

Positive experience: I went to eat lunch and support the local business. The space is lovely and concept is really great, I have been there a few times before for drinks and coffee and I really want the business to thrive and continue to offer great things locally. I always noticed the service was very slow at the cafe but this time in particular the was only one person serving customers and by the time I had ordered my salad and they had prepared it a queue of 5-6 people had formed and a few coffees had to be brought to the tables. But I think the main critique and suggestions are 1) to rethink the offering if they are understaffed and have something ready to offer and not salads that need preparing, after the salad I could have eaten a full other sandwich so for £8 I would expect something more filling with a carb complement (slice of focaccia or bread). Condiments weren’t available so had to ask them and they don’t seem to offer them as default - the salad could have been tastier with some more condiments at least and 2) train their staff better on attending customers, hygiene etc. The staff as they were preparing my salad used their bare (unwashed) hands to put spinach on my plate right in front of me (and other customers) with the plastic containers of the different salad components just right there, they are not very nice to see (metal ones would at least be better) but it just showed lack of training and awareness of what you can and cannot do. I hope this will give some constructive feedback as I really hope to come back and have a better experience!

Fantastic experience: A great place.

Fantastic experience: I hosted 3 holistic retreats here, the place is amazing, the right energy! I highly recommend it ✨

Fantastic experience: This is a lovely cafe, they decorated it really nicely, and it’s just a nice space to be in. I also love the yoga studio, again just a nice space, with glass/window walls so you have a lovely inside/outside feeling and view of the park as you practice yoga. I have been to a few of the classes and always found them great, I especially like the dharma class. The coffee is also great, and cappuccino is one of the best I’ve had especially when made by a couple of the staff members who put the chocolate in before the milk, it has a really great taste! The cakes I’ve tried are also delicious and the flatbread sandwiches are tasty too, and surprisingly extremely filling!

Fantastic experience: Beautiful space and great classes! Clean showers! The garden is amazing. I would especially recommend aerial. The price for aerial classes is one of the lowest I have seen.

Fantastic experience: Lovely yoga space - the studios on the ground floor are super nice and airy, one even looks out onto the park. The cafe has a large outdoor courtyard with quirky furniture, feels very peaceful. Mats are included in the price, and there is bike storage out the front. Smoothies are great but on pricey side. Classes are amazing value for money!

Fantastic experience: WOW, where do I start. I have just had a AMAZING and WONDERFUL MASSAGE. I would most DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT. I’m EXTREMELY RELAXED and my body is FEELING RECHARGED. XX

Fantastic experience: The ambience of this place is amazing. It offers very comfy and peaceful environment for people who works with their laptops or people who likes reading outside. No one bothers you at all. People in here are very friendly. But their coffee is average and their menu is a bit pricey.

Negative experience: Beware - they don't have a till to show you what the price is before you pay. Twice I have been overcharged compared to the prices on the menu. Its really disappointing as the coffees are already expensive. £4.50 for a drink is very steep considering the service is slow, cups are small and drinks aren't that hot.

Fantastic experience: Excellent and healthy food. Lots of varied options and perfect for a casual lunch. Would really recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been to many yoga studios in London and The Lodge Space is by far my favourite. There's something special about the place. Everyone who works there is friendly and passionate about what they do. At some studios you just feel like a paying customer. At Lodge Space, the instructors generally care and want to help you grow in your practice. There is a great community vibe and I have felt welcome from the very beginning. There are few places in the city where you can truly escape from the hustle and bustle and just chill - this is one of them.

Fantastic experience: I’ve attended some of the Dharma classes at The Lodge Space with Michael Wagner and would highly recommend Michael as a teacher; Dharma as a yoga practice; and The Lodge Space as a venue. Michael is committed and supportive and takes time to guide you through various Asanas in a calm and encouraging way that challenges and fulfills. The Lodge Space is also a friendly environment to enjoy the park or have a drink or some food; read a book or just relax in. I cannot recommend The Lodge Space, or Michael, highly enough.

Fantastic experience: My favorite yoga studio in London! Zen feeling, delicious vegan food and smoothies, enjoying amazing yoga in a lovely space, facing a gorgeous park.

Negative experience: I’ve been coming to Lodge many times over the years, for classes and for the cafe. I’ve moved out of the area but came with my friend for a yoga class for old times sake. The class itself was excellent but the experience was tarnished by the inaccessible nature. I felt unwell toward the end of the class and needed to use the washroom, but was admonished by the instructor for ‘disturbing’ everyone during the last few minutes of rest. I understand of course that the timing wasn’t great, but to be publicly scolded in a class I am paying for is really not the way. People have all sorts of health issues and 75 mins is a long time to workout without accessing facilities. I was told these were ‘class rules’ as I attempted to leave and was told I cannot. If the instructor had informed of this at the start of the class I would have mentioned that it may not suit me. This is simply not an acceptable attitude for a place that claims to prioritise wellness. Performative wokeness at its finest. Will not be visiting again. It’s a pity because I really loved coming here and always felt welcome.

Negative experience: Poor experience with the management team

Fantastic experience: A+++ service, amazing atmosphere and the most delicious cinnamon buns :)

Negative experience: Was late for my second yoga session at the place and not allowed in because there was a 5 min late rule which nobody told me about. My first session was booked at the place 8 minutes into the 1 hour which shows that they pick and chose when to use the session and also they only wanted my money to pay for 3 X sessions package. Asked for my money back for the two yoga sessions and they would not give it to me. Do not recommend it his place, they find themselves as zen people who speak with a whispery voice when they are dismissive to you.

Fantastic experience: Place is awesome, vibe is chill and relaxed people here are really nice and professional and decor is done with love and attention to details.

Fantastic experience: The pregnancy yoga class is an absolute sanity lifesaver! Molly is a great teacher and it's so nice to have a space to connect with other pregnant women in a calm environment. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I love this space so much! The food is always delicious and the staff friendly and kind. The fitness classes The Lodge offers are some of the best in London. Would highly recommend checking it out if you ever find yourself in the Surrey Quays area!

Fantastic experience: What a lovely little gem of a cafe

Fantastic experience: Always such gorgeous coffee! It’s my go to morning fix. Such Friendly staff and lovely chilled atmosphere :)

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service with an amazing ambiance. I was look after superbly. I would highly recommend the Lodge Space❤️❤️❤️

Negative experience: Staff were unhygienic, handling cash and phones and then directly touching food they were serving to us. They also couldn't tell us which of their salads were vegan, and resorted to asking a colleague on Whatsapp, and then couldn't figure out which of their dishes the colleague was referring to! For a vegetarian cafe the lack of savoury vegan options was surprising too. Finally we paid £8 for a half-filled small salad box which took far to long to order and was served unhygienically.

Negative experience: I have given this cafe a chance 3 times and sadly disappointed every time! Vegan savoury options are often not labelled and staff always seem confused about what is vegan or not vegan, what the ingredients are, etc. Different staff members contradicting each other on what is or not vegan. Definitely not suitable for anyone with food allergies/intolerances. To me the worst is the hygiene levels and the lack of care from the cafe staff. Everytime they touch everything directly with their hands (no gloves/napkin/nothing), straight after touching payments/their phones etc. Last time I kindly and politely asked to have the product swapped for another one as they had just touched someone’s payment and the staff member was super rude and finally agreed to change it but in a very unprofessional way. On top of all this, after waiting for a very long time for them to figure out the options, we paid £8 for each salad box that was not even half full, and did not include most of the options as they were unsure about them, yet we had to pay full price anyway and no apology received, they just gave the excuse the staff was new. Would definitely not recommend if you are vegan or have any allergies or care about hygiene or a good service at all!

Fantastic experience: I love this cafe and the team working there. It's a beautifully designed space and very welcoming. Food and drinks taste great, are good quality and healthy. I'm starting to use their treatments there and am very impressed with the quality of their therapists.

Negative experience: A really nice space, super cozy, but unfortunately every time I come I find the staff very rude. I ordered a salad today, the person at the till clearly didn’t want to explain to me what was in the the different salads. He said everything was written on display signs, which it was not. It’s a real shame because the space is lovely and has a lots of potential, and the food is good but I’m not coming back because I simply don’t feel welcomed.

Positive experience: The cafe is very expensive (almost £10 for a sandwich and £3.5 for some hot water and fresh lemon). I was shocked. The space itself is nice but this cafe is overpriced and disappointing.

Fantastic experience: Deep tissue massage with Cristina Adani - my dead body was alive it’s rejuvenated. Her work is magical

Negative experience: Dirty horrible place

Positive experience: Love the atmosphere of the Lodge, but the cafe is very pricey considering it is all vegetarian food and the service and portions are inconsistent day to day.

Negative experience: I've encountered multiple instances of confusion and possible oversight regarding the subscription practices at your studio: Ambiguous Subscription Options: Within the app, there are two distinct buttons: one under "Passes" and the other under "Subscription". If both lead to a monthly subscription, why is there a need for two separate options? Unconsented Charges: On several occasions, I've found that the studio has charged me for a subscription without my explicit consent. This has resulted in double charges, as I had already manually subscribed. Lack of Transparency: It seems that the studio frequently modifies its membership policy without notifying its customers. As a client, I expect clear and timely communication about any changes that might affect my financial commitments or the service I receive. Value for Money: This studio commands a premium price, and with that comes the expectation of premium service. The recent issues and lack of clear communication are not aligned with the high standards I anticipated. In addition to the concerns about subscription practices, I'd like to share feedback on the Darma yoga class I've been attending for nearly a year: Consistency in the Darma Yoga Class: While I genuinely appreciate the expertise of the trainer and enjoy the practice itself, I've observed a lack of variation in the class program. Over the course of the year, the same routine is repeated in every session. This consistency, though it might be beneficial for some, has become monotonous for me. I believe introducing some variety or occasionally integrating new sequences can enhance the learning experience and keep long-term attendees like myself more engaged and motivated. Including specific feedback like this can help the studio understand areas of improvement, not just in their administrative practices but also in the classes they offer.

Fantastic experience: Best cafe in the area

Fantastic experience: The lodge is an awesome place close to Canada Water/Surrey Quays station, where it's possible to do a lot of yoga classes of different types, and spend the day working remotely during the week with some nice food and nice ambiance.

Fantastic experience: It's the most hipster place I've been in London so far. It's all vegetarian (vegan friendly as well), good coffee choice. But the most notable feature is their secluded garden with the chilled Thai vibes. Great place to work from and wind down!

Negative experience: Music at 1 am.

Fantastic experience: A lovely place!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic relaxing place for evening or morning Pilates/yoga classes! I have tried different classes at The Lodge Space (TRX, Pilates, Yoga, etc.) and I can say that the Pilates with Vanessa and the Hot Slow Flow classes with Andrea are my favourites! They are super professional and passionate about their jobs. If you need a break from the London busy life, this is the perfect place to go for a relaxing time! I highly recommend this space! The staff are nice, professional and friendly! Thank you

Negative experience: Just paid 1 banana for £1.

Positive experience: I thoroughly enjoyed the friendly and welcoming environment of the space. It offers a great atmosphere for the community. However, I did find the food and drinks to be a bit pricey. Although the offerings are undeniably tasty and of high quality, the affordability aspect might be something to consider.

Fantastic experience: Great fitness & wellness space that has a unique community feel to it

Fantastic experience: Abbi's breathwork class is so good, I got over a break up in one hour 10/10

Fantastic experience: Beautiful space. Lovely helpful staff. Great price! Recently started beginners aerial yoga & really enjoying an introduction to this challenging yet peaceful and relaxing work for my body. The food in the vegan café looks yummy too so would love to come for lunch one day! Thank you @The Lodge space.

Negative experience: Unimaginative food. A salad consists of a few raw vegetables, mainly kale, plus some pickle-type things from jars. £8.50 spent and I had to go home for something to eat. Note to chef: one homemade salad would have really lifted my meal. I recommend chickpeas plus onions, parsley, lemon and oil - you can knock a big bowl of it up in 10 minutes, and it looks like you've made an effort. Plus it adds a bit of protein. Service is perfunctory, I've been a few times but no-one's smiled at me yet. And I ALWAYS smile at cafe staff. Lots of people on laptops so not a place you can get chatting. All of which makes me look like a moaner. But honestly I'm not. I just feel this place could be a lot better. On the plus side: good coffee, nice decor, free books, attractive outdoor space.

Fantastic experience: I don't do yoga or anything else that might be on offer here, but the cafe is beautiful and relaxing. It has a garden and tranquil music playing softly in the background. I bought a medium salad (expensive at £12.50 but I guess that's the going rate nowadays) which was loaded and left me feeling absolutely stuffed! I also bought a vegan muffin but I'm so full I'm not sure I can eat it now lol. Just sitting here writing a review instead while I digest all the salad!

Fantastic experience: Very calm and cute cafe . Easily accessible from Southwark park. lot's of classes offered here.

Fantastic experience: Very cozy and a good place to relax!

Negative experience: Nice place but very bad service. You will be severely ignored despite if it is busy or not and without communicating why to you or that you need to wait a little bit more than usually so they could take your order while you are standing there and they even might be looking at your eyes and continue ignoring you with no other people in front of you in the queue. Also they mix up orders and they might never bring you what you have paid for and you might have to chase them. I have been multiple times there, not only a couple and it feels that it is super random if you will have an ok experience or a bad one but defo never expect to be highly satisfied by the service. It really feels an unwelcome place, better avoid.

Fantastic experience: Love the place. Been going since it opened 5 years ago and the perfect place to sit and work with my laptop as the wifi is very good, relaxing cafe atmosphere and great food. Staff are friendly and classes exceptional.

Negative experience: Super expensive for average coffee. They also advertise a plant powered kitchen but all their pastries (except one) contain egg/milk so felt like they are misleading people with their advertising.

Fantastic experience: A truly welcoming place for anyone. The place offers top quality classes and a very relaxed ambience. Absolutely kind and generous personnel always keen to help. I have been a customer at the cafe and I have been attending the classes the last 4 years. I am very happy this place is close to my home as I really enjoy all the activities they offer. I can only recommend it and even advise that you give it a try :)

Fantastic experience: Delicious food and staff, the atmosphere is amazing, great vibe. Maybe just the service can be slightly faster ;)

Fantastic experience: Recommended by a friend, the energy here is very calming yet births creativity, from the moment I walked in I was greeted by smiling faces and warm hearts, the salad a meldy of infusion of colours and taste very large portion, with the Chakra charge fresh juice was just amazingly delicious. The place has everything you want and need to chill unwind and just be your authentic self, amongst like minded souls. The outside bhudda dwelling is simply zen, which flows through to the public park and secret gardens where you can go for walks off the beaten track. Everything in life is Energy, Frequency & Vibration" The lodge space has all this in abundance ❤️

Fantastic experience: A little piece of heaven in the craziness of London

Negative experience: I booked a yoga class and was on waiting list. Couldn't attend class and was then not able to use my booking for another class. After month of writing emails i finally got an answer but once i explained my situation i got ghosted again. Poor costumer service.

Negative experience: This eclectic spot is a total anomaly in the neighborhood, boasting prices that don't quite vibe with the local income levels. The ambience oozes cool, flaunting a curated collection of thrift-store treasures. Though the design and aesthetic aren't quite my cup of artisanal tea, the place is brimming with enlightened and athletic folks. Plus, there's an outdoor garden that just adds to the effortlessly hip experience. At a mere £3.50, this flat white delivers flavors reminiscent of a latte from your go-to, mainstream coffee joint prepared by not professional barista.

Negative experience: This studio has a sacred Hindu idol placed outside the studio door, in the same location where customers are asked to remove and keep their shoes. In hindusim it is considered very disrespectful and inauspcious to have shoes anywhere near an idol. I wrote an email to the studio pointing this out and explained the importance of following this custom. In their 1st reply to me, they said they were aware of this custom but customers weren’t using the shoe rack. I don’t think they understood my point that neither the shoe rack NOR the shoes should be kept in such close proximity to the idol- so I stressed that the idol is sacred and not a decoration piece and it is important to carfeully consider the implications of selectively borrowing religious aspects in a haphazard manner as this is disrespectful. The studio manager then replied saying “ I didn’t understand their intentions” and that “It’s actually really rude to accuse them of treating the idols as decoration pieces”…….. Is it not a fair assumption to make? If the idol was truly given the respect it deserves, it would have never been placed in a situation in which it is in such close proximity to people's shoes on a continuous basis… I find it absurd that instead of an apology or immediate action the studio manager thought it wise to gaslight me and get defensive. I appreciate that they did say they were looking into ways to rearrange the setup to fix this situation, but I find it very frustrating when yoga studios that borrow religious elements are not willing to admit their mistakes when they neglect to properly research and follow the respectful way of honouring a deity….

Fantastic experience: I love this place for its peace. The gym classes are all amazing and different. Teachers are good and it’s very easy to register to classes. I would definitely recommend this place for your body and mind health.

Fantastic experience: Super nice space! Perfect post Parkrun spot

Positive experience: I discovered this place some weeks ago and I have joined 2 classes already, people are nice and the staff as well, however in my second class the instructor at HIIT, didn't show up, it was another person who tried to save the class and we made the class but it is disappointed that you hadn't another instructor to cover that situations. Also, I saw people using running shoes and I was told that it was not allowed. I saw some comments about the hygiene, you should check that, I will give another chance with other class bc I wanted to get the membership but not sure still

Fantastic experience: I had a lovely massage here. I came in with healing injury and didn't know exactly what I wanted; she catered it to my needs so eaily and I left feeling amazing. I'm a big fan of the yoga classes here too! And great food!

Negative experience: A nice space but portion sizes for the hot breakfast are very underwhelming. Similar review by another customer around the pancakes (£6.50) which were suited for a child rather than an adult. If you're coming here with an appetite, I'd go somewhere else otherwise coffee is decent.

Fantastic experience: So happy with this space. My sanctuary and escape from everyday rushed life!!!

Fantastic experience: This place is great! We came there last week and drove past it again today. I think you guys deserve a shout-out ! The atmosphere is chill and cool, a real high energy place The staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is great, we had some brunch classics with twists and the best mega balls I ever had, wife is still talking about the the food. Thanks guys , we see you soon

Negative experience: I come here often and really like the place. But today I brought some friends to see it and we had breakfast. My friend ordered the American style pancakes, which I never had before. But when I saw those 2 really small slices, with 2 blueberries and barely any syrup, I was so embarrassed for bringing them here. You cannot really charge £6.5 for that. It really felt like yet another low quality food joint, taking advantage of its customers.

Negative experience: Just in the middle of our little one's birthday party organization, after offering us availability, they sent us an email after one week of silence: they are not hosting children's birthday parties anymore! Very unprofessional and uncaring of a place claims to be baby and child friendly. Please don't think that I will stop posting about your scandalous unprofessional attitude only on Google reviews. I will make sure every parent group in Bermondsey and Canada Water hears about this.

Fantastic experience: Quiet place to chill have a coffee / something light to eat and meet great people.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been looking for a new yoga home ever since my favourite (local studio) closed down last year. I found The Lodge Space via Google and signed up for their intro offer to get a feel for the place. I attended my first class here last week - and am completely smitten with the studio, café & staff. Walking in I instantly felt a sense of ‘coming home’ and was warmly welcomed by both staff and fellow yogis alike. Whilst waiting for my class to begin I ordered a chai latte - which was incredible! It’s by far the best I’ve ever had, and I’m looking forward to exploring the rest of the menu. I’m also looking forward to attending the other classes I’ve booked here, and will definitely be returning after I’ve finished my intro offer.

Fantastic experience: Lovely coffee & friendly staff

Fantastic experience: Great yoga studio and gym, and great cafe. Whitney is a great HIIT instructor. Would love to see more HIIT classes provided (only once a week at the moment)

Fantastic experience: Came here for a gym class and stayed in the cafe for the afternoon. Such a cozy and amazing place! Nice coffee and bakeries!

Fantastic experience: Open fire, warm cup of coffee on a Sunday morning after a crisp run and gym session in southwark park! Cant beat it, love this place!

Fantastic experience: Recently went to The Lodge Space and as always a nourishing experience for the mind, body and soul. Lunch was amazing and better still I had the best massage ever. Dominique has hands from heaven! She made me feel so safe and relaxed. I would highly recommend and have been to my friends. Pro tip: ask her the question, "What did my body tell you during the session?". Her answers are insightful ✨️

Negative experience: They have some good classes and activities going on, but the hygiene standard is appalling. It was bad since I can remember, but recently got even worse. To clean the yoga mats they have some barely spraying mist bottles with stinky water in them (seems like there's no desinfectant inside, could be a dash of essential oil or similar). Paper towels were available before, but last time I was there they had USED cloths to REUSE when misting (??) your mats. The manager really needs to look into this and start ordering proper cleaning materials - there's a difference between creating a place for health and spirituality, and running a gym with hundreds of people visiting every day. If people are against cleaning chemicals that's absolutely fine and everyone is free to choose these things at home, but a place like this should adhere to a hygiene standard or at least provide options to those that wish to.

Fantastic experience: I hired out the lodge for an event this weekend, and what a BEAUTIFUL space! The staff were so friendly, accommodating and warm - Theo in the kitchen was so enthusiastic with helping me with catering/cacao and the food was delicious. Lisa who helps manage the studio's was just phenomenal - an absolute asset to the studio. She put up with all my questions, was so supportive, and made me feel so welcome. An absolutely beautiful soul. Thank you so much to everyone at the Lodge, and I can't wait to come back for more events, and to take part in some classes at the studio too!

Negative experience: Great space amazing teacher, useless receptionist too busy flirting with member of staff to a) check me to the right class b) notice that I am still waiting (even though I came over few times asking for example for Wi-Fi code).

Fantastic experience: The lodge cafe is one of the best places I had lunch. They serve really big portions of anything veg and the food is delicious. But what really captures your attention is the environment. When you step inside you feel like you're not even in London but in a spiritual space in Asia. It is wonderful and it's really good when you want to stay alone with yourself or when you need a bit of space. Lovely place. One of my favourites in London!!! They also do Yoga here.

Fantastic experience: We hosted our daughter's 5th birthday party at The Lodge and it all went extraordinarily well. The Chef, Theo, is so professional and such a lovely person; did a splendid job with food and smoothies. Ollie, the events manager, is also very reliable. The space is just unique and an oasis of peace. The kids had a brilliant time (we rented two studios which can be collapsed into one and had Musical Mayhem enterteiners for a princess and pirates themed party). Parents were chilling outisde in the terrace and came into the room as they wish and enjoyed some refreshments too. The kindness of everyone at this outlet, the fact that they care so much, has to be highlighted. We will be back and many thanks!

Fantastic experience: An amazing place that I'm really glad I've discovered. The interior is very cozy, perfect spot to relax and focus. The coffee was really tasty too. I loved their peaceful garden and the seating area outdoors. Happy to see places like this in the neighbourhood. I'll surely be back!

Fantastic experience: Great coffee and place to do a bit of work! Lovely team and good food. Love the garden that opens up to the park!

Fantastic experience: Lovely atmosphere with great coffee and healthy brunch options. Makes for an excellent study session and the staff was very friendly :)

Positive experience: The Lodge place is a really nice welcoming space and place to just relax, staff are friendly,they have many inspiring activities on offer. While you’re waiting for your osteopath treatment nice place to relax and grab a food ,however their prices are a bit over priced ,their foods is ok .

Negative experience: Great garden, nice vibe, but terrible service. Waited for my drink for 40 minutes. Reminded 3 times, and they ended up bringing the wrong one. My flapjack melted in the sun by then.

Fantastic experience: It's gorgeous place with Asian vibe. I feel so comfortable, safe and peaceful. Morning yoga and coffee after is perfect combination for me ‍♀️. Plus location just next to park. You will not find better place in London like this!

Fantastic experience: The ambience, hospitality and the taste of coffee what’s not to complement. A must visit place.

Negative experience: I have mixed feelings about this place. The space is really nice, both indoors and outdoors. The food however was disappointing, tasteless and overpriced. It is not enough to serve a big portion (orange Buddha bowl) it needs to taste of something. Chai latte was also extremely disappointing. I did not try the cakes and yoga, maybe they offer a better experience.

Fantastic experience: Popped in for a vegan meal and ended up having a three course meal. The Shroom cakes were just divine. Really loved the orange buddha bowl with the addition of salmon. Good to see that they cater for all groups. Will be back soon

Fantastic experience: Just visited for the first time, had a lovely juice and sandwich from the cafe which was a really lovely space. Followed by probably the best massage of my life by Christina. Super professional and gave entirely bespoke massage to the issues I was having. 10/10 would recommend

Fantastic experience: The Zen point of the neighbourhood. You can sign up for many yoga, gym, relaxing and dancing classes here. This is not just a coffee next to the park. Here you can regenerate in rush London and take a while to rest by yourself or with your friends. If you are looking for a space to hire for your activities, check their website.

Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff, amazing facilities - both classes and cafe. The space is a beautiful chill out place - grabbing a coffee or lunch here is a really nice serene experience.

Fantastic experience: I love coming to the Lodge, the atmosphere is amazing, from the moment I walk through the front door I already start to feel calm and relaxed. It really is an oasis of peace in the mad city. Backing onto the park, you can totally forget you are in London. The staff are amazing too and there is such a large choice of classes and therapies - I just don’t have enough time to enjoy all of them! I can not recommend this place highly enough, it has literally been a saviour to me in the past few years. Thank you to all at the Lodge for creating this haven!

Fantastic experience: The Lodge space is more than a space – it’s a community and serves the need of practicing yoga and some. The location is convenient and easily accessible locally. The studio is purpose built, aesthetically beautiful and spacious indeed with a lovely ambience. I’ve always enjoyed the many networking events held there. The classes taught by knowledgeable and experienced teachers that allows my self-care fix almost daily. The café carries lots of healthy delicious and nourishing food. The energy is upbeat and relaxing and it helps that the owners are friendly and always up for a good conversation. Highly recommended for sure.
