"Not only do you get a seriously great cup of coffee here, you also get to meet the nicest pair of coffee aficionados behind the counter - Diego and Asia! They’re passionate about their coffee and really in touch with the local community. You can’t miss them the platform at Wandsworth Common station. Highly recommended and definitely worth the extra minutes before the morning commute or online meeting. Did I mention their coffee comes in distinctly colourful cups that looks great in hand and are environment-friendly & locally-sourced? :-)"

"Best coffee in London! Glad that Wandsworth common station doesn’t have barriers so that I can’t get a coffee without catching a train. Great asset to the area - coffee and service is consistently excellent."

"Best coffee I've ever had, and Diego & Ash are lovely people. Because of The Native Son, I pray when I get onto the platform that the train is late so I have time for a coffee and a chat before heading into London! It's also such great coffee that I go there even when I'm not catching a train. You must try it! Ed"

"My weekly visit here is always a highlight. I have now safely made my way through the coffee menu over the past 3 yrs, with every one delicious. Highly recommend their dirty chai. Also feel free to ask for advice, the knowledge of coffee is equal to their expertise. Keep up caffeinated Wandsworth."

"Diego and Ash offer the best coffee in town and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It is rare to find a top-quality coffee shop in the middle of a railway platform. This is a must-stop. You won't be disappointed! They also offer a nice selection of healthy drinks :) They truly love what they do."

"Firstly, the owner (Diego) has a welcoming energy and atmosphere that fills this shop. Very friendly, and happy to converse with you while you wait for your order. The selection of hot drinks is great, flat white was very smooth and the dirty chai had so much flavour in it. Highly recommend this shop and if I was on a train passing by I would get off the train to get more...."

"A great start to the day = a visit to Diego & Ash for their friendly smiles and morning catch-up, and a delightful flat white! After a week in the US where they just can’t make a decent one, am so glad the Native Son is there to provide! Seriously good coffee."
