Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Time to time we are coming here for a nice breakfast with amazing food, really nice coffee and fresh orange juice! The staff working here is always really kind as well! I can only recommend to try it out once! Pricewise it’s a really great value for money!"
"Excellent drinks, friendly service and very reasonable prices"
"This is a nice small italian caffee, a bit tucked in inside an alleyway. Inside has a very warm and cozzy feeling. Staff have been very friendly and nice. Has seating on a bar bench against a window. More seating upstairs but that is not wheelchair friendly. Plenty of seating outside too. I had an iced latte and bufala e pesto ciabata. It is toasted ciabata with black olives on top, mozzarella and cherry tomatoes on a pesto base with some salad as a filling, small salad with tomato and cucumber slices as a garnish. Tasted very good. Very nice. There are some more options to choose from. It is all prepared on display so you can see what they have. On top they do some other breakfast items. Standard coffee and some choice of teas to drink. They serve alcohol too but didnt notice what times. As an outsider to london, 15£ for small breakfast with one coffee is on the more expensive side of things but maybe I have just a twisted sense of pricing. Either way a very nice place. Glad I walked in. :)"
"The atmosphere of the pub is great! It's quiet and peaceful even though you're right in the City!"
"Fantastic Italian Restaurant This is a beautiful & nice Italian restaurant in the middle of Leadenhall market. It feels authentic, the food, the cafés, everything. Amazing place to eat and to have a drink on the outside terrasse. Grazie mille everything was perfect!"
"I like going here. It's relatively cheap and good, with sandwiches, a few hot dishes (schnitzel, pasta, famous chips), pastries and coffee. They have beer and wine too. Plus: seats, both upstairs (only a few tables) and outside. Great for a quick snack or a catch up with a colleague, or a decent lunch at a very reasonable price. The location, at the edge of historic Leadenhall market, is great too. Take a seat, grab a coffee and watch the world go by. No traffic to spoil your enjoyment!"
"Very nice location on a busy morning, coffee is well made, lovely to sit in the middle of leadenhall in the morning and watch the world go by in the summer. Service staff are efficient and friendly. Had a lovely time. There are many other charming shops around too."
"Beautiful corner café/restaurant. They have amazing Focaccias. The owner was very accommodating and even made me a Vegan focaccia on request. The Rosé pino grigio was SO tasty! And all reasonably priced. Definitely coming back."
