This store is cosy, there are a couple of sofas/comfy chairs and outdoor seating, so it accommodates a cold blustery day or a warm sunny day. The staff are really friendly, James is the manager there and he is very welcoming and introduced himself to me as I'm very much a regular, which was very nice. It has been open less than a year and I am a big fan, the only gripe I have is that their internet does go down from time to time which means you can't visit Yelp, but also you can't pay by card =/ and if you are like me and pay by card for everything this can be quite frustrating. Tip: Pay by cash Tip 2: Ask for a Wifi code when you are paying if you need it

Although £12 for my lentil burger made me blanche, the generous sides of salad and housemade slaw (I asked for no fries nor burger bun) made it all worth it. There's so much on the plate I boxed half for home (I had drank a smoothie before I had arrived here). The slaw in particular is divine: it doesn't have that gross mayo gloppiness I usually despise. It's quite fresh. There's a lovely vinaigrette on the greens and the burger has a moreish artichoke sauce. The staff is friendly as are the customers; dog-friendly too!

My friend and I popped in for brunch on a Saturday and staff were very helpful and flexible with our orders. I got the big vegan breakfast (sans beans) and my friend got a gluten-free version that subbed a bunch of salads. Both of our meals were HUGE -- I ended up bringing home enough for breakfast the next morning! The restaurant also has a divine assortment of vegan cakes, cupcakes and desserts with MANY gluten-free options so of course we bought up about 4 items to bring for later. They also sell some packaged grocery items and have a lovely lefty/anarcho/vegan book selection. The t-shirts are 15 GBP and well worth grabbing one as a souvenir since you know the leftovers won't last the whole way home! Cafe is super cute inside with many small tables and lots of art (I especially adore the big cat mural in the bathroom). Keep in mind - they are closed on Tuesdays. :( Totally worth going out of your way -- it's not too bad of a walk from Hackney Central or Hackney Downs (check out Pemberton Pub on your way back if you have the time!).

I hope they can…read moreimprove on the sub-par level of food and pre-packaged goods we've come to expect living in a not-quite-London suburb. The menu is pretty thorough, flowing from breakfast through to lunch, supper and afternoon treats. The food is of a good standard, but it is not perfect: To be picky I'd prefer fresher eggs, bread and fruit. However, the coffee can't really be faulted, it is easily of the same or greater quality than any of the other cafes and competitively priced. That thing that keeps me coming back is the friendly service and local flavour. I like to come here because it has far more selection than most of the others, so it is great for groups. It's cute, comfortable and clean. I hope the garden continue to grow!
