Had arguably one of the best lunches in City Road. The builders breakfast was great, and the staff were really friendly. Strongly suggested for a quick get-together with friends, particularly given how reasonably priced it is for central London.

Nice little spot for breakfast - had London cafe vibes. Reasonably priced breakfast for full English, in comparison to many nearby spots.

Excellent food surpassed by even better service! The staff are welcoming, kind and attentive. We come here often, have tried most of the menu and it had always exceeds expectations. Highly recommend!

(came back again today, still great little place, managed to get a photo up this time!!)

Had a bit of time to kill prior to a meeting, so I decided to go for breakfast as I'd been up early and not eaten, and my tummy was rumbling quite loudly in protest.

Most of the food places weren't open yet as I wandered along the City Road (as it was about 0930), so was pleasantly surprised to spot this cafe was open.

Staff greeted me immediately as I walked in the door.

Piggy little me went all in for a Cop The Lot (which I most certainly did with two eggs, two bacon slices, a sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans & black pudding - yum!), all washed down with a lovely mug of strong tea.

Food was fresh out (as in not left sitting under heat lamps) , and the presentation was immaculate.

I did especially like the sausage (no Richmonds here).

The customer service was excellent and rapid with attentive staff, and tables were quickly bussed after customers exited, and left immaculately clean.

It's not the cheapest cafe around (and it kind of does it a disservice to describe it as a 'greasy spoon' as well), but it's worth a punt if you're in the mood for a hearty full English breakfast if you're ever near Old Street.

Really good, simple and big breakfasts. We went here 3/5 days of our trip so it was a good place for breakfast. Also the service was very quick even if it was full on saturday.
