There are excellent panini toasted sandwiches (big enough for 2 helpings, really!) and side salads. You'd be hard pressed to find a better deal in the area, served by a friendlier group of people. Just be mindful that the eat-in space is very small, and can feel crowded during the lunch rush, especially once a few baby buggies get packed into the mix. If the weather is decent, the outdoor tables seem like a better option.

Luckily for me, this is just a few shops down from our (newly found!) dog groomer (Great & Small) and so like the nervous parent I am...I wanted to stay close. Bingo bango, welcome to Ground Control. There are several things that make me happy in a coffee shop: 1. Freshly brewed, attentive coffee. Check. Flat White = flat amazing. 2. Nice, sturdy seating. GC doesn't have much, but what it does have is solid. (3 tables) 3. Light food options. Cakes and the usual bits...but great fresh sandwiches. Order early, once they're out, they're out. 4. WIFI. Gloriously free and strong wifi. They have it. 5. Friendly staff: check. 6. Beautiful ceramics: Robin's egg blue china? Don't mind if I do. 7. Swirly milk foam art: check. 8. A cute bulldog puppy. Ok, not all coffee shops can have this -- and this particular one with the leopard collar didn't live at the coffee shop, but was accompanying another guest. Bonus for me! All in all, a great spot for a cuppa. Will be back next time I'm amblin' down Amwell. **cash only.

For £2 you can get something really tasty for breakfast: bacon and egg sandwich for example, bit greasy but seriously good value. For £3 for lunch you can get a great sandwich with fresh ingredients, such as proper chicken meat. The tea here is legendary, and at 60p a real snip. They also do daily specials like liver and onions, homemade burger, curries etc. It's FANTASTIC value and has a real old-skool London feel to it. The staff are really friendly too, always smiling and helpful. I'd recommend it to tourists if they're interested in one of these increasingly rare cafes.
