Coffee is a vital tool for most of us, to wake us up and to get us going, but we need your help on where the best place for a cuppa in SE London is.

So, when that craving for caffeine calls, where do you go to get your fix?

We are not ignoring the tea drinkers obviously, we just want to know the best coffee shops for sitting and chatting and sipping.

We want to highlight where those are based on your recommendations, so let us know where you love and why in the comments, on Twitter or on Facebook.

We'll collate the favourites into a list to help everyone else know where to go when they want a strong cup of coffee.
