Reviews
One of the best looking cafes in London I've visited, period. Service was polite, served my latte quickly. I have to visist again and indulge in the atmosphere. It's not a big place and could be crowded too. Main thing is all those decorations, specially one at the ceiling. Can't go to Italy? No probs, just come over. Latte was ok, I wouldn't say it was watery, more like milky, even shot poured was big, but might be a weak coffee. Enjoyed it anyway but had better iced lattes.
Quirky establishment with a large menu of both food and drink. We had a table at the open window, although hot, it was breezy too which was lovely in the July hot weather. I had eggs benedict, served with bacon which was nice but would have been better had it been served a bit crispier. The two perfectly poached eggs went down a treat on the 'not too hard' toasted sourdough. Overall I'd recommend this cafe.
Such a lovely spot at Shoreditch! ☕✨ I really enjoyed my time here. The coffee was delicious and perfectly made, and the breakfast was fresh, tasty, and very satisfying. You can tell they really care about quality. I also loved the concept and overall vibe of the place — it feels cozy and thoughtfully designed. Even the menu design is super stylish and adds to the whole experience. Definitely a place I’d come back to and highly recommend!
My favourite breakfast spot in Shoreditch. The main dishes also looked great, but since I went in the morning, I had the chance to try their breakfast — absolutely worth it. If you’re ever around Old Street, I’d definitely recommend stopping by. I enjoyed a lovely breakfast while soaking in the warm atmosphere inside and the view outside. I had the halloumi, avocado and roasted vegetables on sourdough, and it was absolutely delicious, highly recommend. I also really liked the overall vibe of the café and the background music — it all added to the experience. The staff were attentive and the service was excellent, thank you! I’ll definitely be back.
I came to this place with a friend at around lunchtime on a Saturday. The place is not big, rather cosy, and most tables were occupied during the time we were there, but not crazy crowded. My friend had a savoury breakfast and I had sweet pancakes with fruit and ice-cream. It's not super fancy food, but everything looked great with decent portions. I really enjoyed my pancakes and would definitely go back to have them again. They were soft and almost crispy outside, and the combination with the fruit, ice cream and syrup made it very tasty. We also had a coffee and it was a great coffee for my taste, on the sweet side rather than bitter or acidic. We paid around 20 pound each, which is pretty good for London and we liked everything. I would recommend and go back to this place.
