Amid the city's rhythm, The Rug offers a place to slow down and connect.

We are a neighbourhood café in Maida Hill, West London, bringing together modern brunch with a gentle touch of Asia, and a welcoming coffeehouse experience. 

We take pride in celebrating craft, championing sustainability, and sourcing from small London producers who share our values.

A Little History

Our calm cafe´ used to be one of West London's liveliest music venues. In the 1960s, when it was known as the Windsor Castle, it hosted early gigs by The Rolling Stones and U2.

Then one day, the doors closed — and for fifteen years, it fell silent.

We moved in with a vision to bring back to life. To turn a forgotten pub into a place for the community once again. 

From pub to peace — a little oasis on Harrow Road.

We often share moments from café life on Instagram.
