Charlie's Cafe & Bakery in Haringey

Verry pricey.full of grease ey salty bacon could not eat it cost 50pounds forgot coffee.wont order from there again it's only for the smokers that smoke.outside

Visited here twice during a brief stay in the nearby Travelodge. As a gluten free person I was thrilled to find this place - there is plenty of choice on the menu and the food is well presented and tasty. Coffee was also beautifully made. They have a great choice of alternative milks and veggie/vegan options. Staff are super helpful and friendly, the place is clean and decorated beautifully and easy to find. Thank you for being a highlight of my trip to London.

We stayed in the Travelodge across the road from Charlie's. We ate here Sunday morning and were pleased we did. The food was so tasty and the staff were very friendly. I had a British breakfast and my partner had a vegetarian breakfast. The food was of a very good quality, no grease left on the plate and our tea and coffee were both very nice too. I would have scored it 5 stars but I felt it was a little expensive even for London. But if I return to Wood Green I'll definitely eat here again.

This cafe was across the road from my hotel so had breakfast here. Lovely decor and plenty staff. Ordered food at counter no issues. Bacon and egg pancakes were excellent. Lovely coffee. Slightly pricey but I'd say it was worth the price as food delicious. Highly recommended.

Had a night at Wood Green Travelodge and needed somewhere for breakfast the following morning. My wife is a Coeliac and Charlie's provided the all important gluten free bread! My vegetarian breakfast was equally great. Service was speedy and courteous. Great place and great staff.

I was only passing due to another reason from being in Wood Green. I asked a Primark employee where was a good place to eat. They suggested CHARLIES. I found the spot straight away they had indoor and outdoor seating. I had to pay before hand. I deceided to order the Heavenly Vegan. I did not want toast but asked for a pouched egg instead. Obviously this isn’t something they do as it was not within the menu however they managed to cater for my needs of which I was grateful. The taste was delicious and I was able to enjoy each part of my brunch. Presentation was clean and well thought out. I ordered pancakes to go as I was in a rush. Thing is, is they didn’t add cutlery. Not sure if this was a mistake or they just didn’t provide it. The pancakes were ok, although I have had better. Hoping that if I ate them there and then they would be lovely but I’ll have to check that out next time. I did think the service was great though and speedy. Price for breakfast and pancakes roughly £25 so not too bad. What a cute spot 👌🏽 will visit again.

A great array of pastries, savoury and sweet lay across the counter top. I ordered some takeaway, an almond croissant which was still warm as they had just opened, a bacon and egg roll and matcha latte. First time matcha buyer, also will be the last. I had my pastry and matcha as I waited for my hot roll. I indicated I made a mistake trying out a matcha latte, without hesitation the gentleman offered me a free latte. I thought that was an incredibly kind gesture, one he didn’t need to do. It was my mistake but he doubled down on his offer and I’m glad I did not refuse. The latte was exceptional. I tipped a couple £ in gratitude for this kind offering. Then wished the staff a good day as I left with my roll. Egg could exactly to my liking, semi hard and with lightly crisped bacon. I hope to return tmrw for another almond croissant and brew! Thank you for your service!

Excellent pancakes, great coffee, was very busy, sat by the door so was a little cold. Excellent service would definitely return

First class brekkie. We both had the blueberry pancakes with bacon and maple syrup, delicious and set you up for the day. Quick service too although was quiet at time.

After reading reviews on here for breakfast I can honestly say it was a fab breakfast and start to the day. The staff are lovely and friendly. We visited here twice, first time ordered Eggs Benedict and Eggs Royal, both were very good. The second time we ordered Eggs Benedict and Scrambled eggs in Toast. The eggs for scrambled were, for me, perfect. The salmon for the Eggs Royal was plentiful. There is water available at the counter and tea and coffee was just again as we like it. Would we go again……yes Thanks to the team!

We went to Charlie’s for late brunch with my husband. It was disappointed ! We ordered 2 eggs royale and chips. Chips had 12 pieces and that was £3 we were really surprised. Eggs royale had a really hard bread that I have never seen before. Also eggs was really cold. Our waiter was attentive and we said about the portion of chips which is the smallest I’ve got in my life. He said that is the regular portion for the place. Very disappointed. We will never go back.

After staying across the road in a hotel we came here for breakfast. We got The American and the lemon curd French toast with a caramel iced latte and an orange juice. Beautifully presented; and really tasty. Friendly staff too. Lovely cafe.

Wonderful cafe opposite the Wood Green travelodge. Had the most amazing vegan breakfast. Good selection of cooked breakfasts for meat eaters too. Juices and coffees, cakes looked yummy too. Only niggle was the wait for my fruit juice which arrived after my breakfast! But other than that really good. One of the best breakfasts I have ever had

Visited for a Sunday breakfast- friendly staff, cool vibe, variety of food options. Liked the menu layout and good price. Ordered pancakes, cooked savoury breakfast and coffees.. delicious taste, large portions & full of flavour! Very happy and very satisfied! Would highly recommend! Overall very lovely experience

Great breakfast just what was needed after a night at Ally Pally watching the darts. Excellent service, friendly and good staff with a chilled/relaxed atmosphere. Had full English breakfast with tea and fresh orange juice. All fresh and tasty. Would highly recommend. Top stuff

we really love the place shock. desserts are great. but we have been drinking flat white twice and it is extremely bitter. either there is a problem with your coffee or your coffee machine. please find solution. we love you.

Very nice service by the Italian waiter and a very good and testing food. They have also a smoking area and fantastic coffees.

Healthy food 🥘! Good to visit often. They provide vegan options. I highly recommend it to check it once!

Decent coffee and food Been here a few times. Relaxed atmosphere, breakfast has good portions and the location is great (next to the shopping centre) - a good choice

Great cafe for gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options. Such a lovely place, with delicious food and a really friendly atmosphere

Great coffee and fab looking cakes. Popped in for breakfast as we were staying opposite in the Travelodge hotel. Popular laid back atmosphere so would return. Breakfast of poached eggs and smashed avocado and the crab and prawn eggs benedict were pricey for what they...

Excellent breakfast! We called here a couple of times for breakfast while staying in the area as it was just across from the Travelodge we were staying in. Everything was great except the pancakes with maple syrup and crispy bacon I ordered this the first...

Very Delicous ! Fully recommendation :) We came with a group of 9 people & really enjoyed Food & Drinks. Charly is such a nice guy who care‘s about his guests. Vielen Dank, alles Gute & weiter so , liebe Grüße von der Hamburger Gruppe

Had breakfast here this morning with 2 friends and can highly recommend it. The food tasted good and the staff were really friendly.

Food here is great. We went for a late breakfast and enjoyed it. The sourdough is tasty and the poached eggs cooked to perfection

Stayed in travelodge across the road whose breakfast offering is effectively non existent. I would have been happy with a trad greasy spoon fry up, but this offered so much more. Great little place and highly recommended

A great choice of healthy food, to include traditional favourites with a twist. Healthy granola matched with full traditional cooked breakfasts. Full lunch menu, great selection of locally sourced breads

Really nice atmosphere, but the coffee wasn't hot enough for me. Very nice cool place for Wood Green though.

I have been in this coffee shop since 2017 . They are still doing very good coffee and dessert . This coffee shop is the best in north

Staff attentive to customer needs, coffee better than expected. Will definitely go back there again for my morning coffee!

The best one in North London. I had a apple walnut torte it was yummy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Thank you very much Charlie's

So glad they have vegan options here! Lovely range of sweet delights and lots of fresh food to offer along with a hot coffee!

My wife harassed me to have brunch at a venue named “Charlies Cafe & Bakery”, i could say it was one of the most hygienic, customer friendly, delicious cafes i have ever been to. Portions are also amazing definatly recommend “Charlies Breakfast”. P.s lovely coffee.

Great selection, friendly staff and highly recommend the carrot cake..one of the best coffee shops in London

Definitely the best place in Wood Green. 10/10 in all aspects: food, coffee, staff. And the carrot cake is the best carrot cake I’ve had. My life has meaning again.

friendly staff, good coffee and great food, but the place is a bit small so you might have to wait a bit to be seated

I've stopped into this wonderful little cafe/bakery on several occasions, most recently in October while on business in London. My hotel had a grab and go style breakfast which is okay, but for something more substantial to hold you through the morning, you can't beat...

Always a pleasure to go to charlies- service with a smile and delighted that they continue to expand their vegan options- love the savoury vegan pastries especially

This is my dad's new favourite coffee place and he brought me along to show me it. The coffee is a bit stronger than the average high street place, but I like it. Smoothies and juices are lush, and the food menu (including vegan selection)...

I've worked in the local area for around three years and have finally found somewhere to get a decent lunch.

Popped in today for brunch. What we had was very enjoyable but would be good to have a choice of bread when it comes to the toast. Nice atmosphere, cakes & sandwiches looked good, a good cup of coffee.

I stumbled across Charlie's cafe & bakery today and was pleasantly surprised by the large selection of vegan options. The super food salad & fresh pressed juices were really tasty. Charlie himself welcomed us to the restaurant and went above and beyond to make us...

I recently moved to the wood green area and have become a regular customer of Charlies's cafe and bakery. I think the cafe provides excellent services to it's customers thanks to it's friendly and polite staff. I also find the coffee beans found in it's...

A great independent cafe. It would be my regular if I lived in Wood Green. Great food – great coffee By change met the owner – a lovely chap. Well deserved to be no.2 on Coffee & Tea in London. But don’t forget the food.

The sourdough bread is delicious, but the noise is a bit intrusive, but I suppose on the High Road it can't be helped.

Came to Charlies by recomendation. Ordered Charlies breakfast pricier than other places but was worth every penny. Food was absolutely superb portion was large - i couldnt finish. I was asked how i wanted my egg cooked when ordering an i wasnt dissapointed. The sourdough...

The place is amazing and so peaceful for family. The breakfast is amazing and delicious I really enjoy it. I think one of the best shops in the area. The coffee quality is something different so tasty, they changed the menu and has vegan as...

This cute cafe is not at all pretentious and certainly not trying to be hipster spot for specialty coffee or a temple for converted vegans but both coffee and vast choices of "naturally tasty" vegan meals makes this rather a "content" place and a great...

One of the best coffee shops in London. High quality, fresh and tasty food and also has a wide selection available for alternative diets (Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten-free). It's one of my favourite places where I can enjoy peacefully a delicious breakfast or brunch, or...
