If you want a proper sandwich look no further, it's been going for years because it serves the best grub around 👍

A true east end staple and a proper hidden gem. Best breakfast sandwiches you'll find in London. Have been going regularly for 5+ years and hope to continue going for many more.

This is a very understated gem. The sandwiches live up to the name doorsteps. The staff are very welcoming. The customers are friendly.

The sandwiches are traditional (with the possible exception of the bacon, bubble and beetroot), tasty and cheap. There is a small seated area, which is clean and pleasant. The staff are friendly and helpful. A little gem.

£3.50 sausage egg bacon roll. Looked at sandwiches and understand why it's called doorsteps. Not sure about the bacon bubble beetroot combo. Worth a visit if passing. Ladies know their football too.

Such a wonderful place I’ve found. I am always looking for locally owned food spots run by good people. My first weekend in London and received the warmest welcome by the lovely ladies working here as well as the owner who stopped by on my way out. I will be back before I continue on my travels :)

Banging. Had a sausage and bacon sarnie. White thick cut bread with poppy seeds was top notch. Fillings were decent quality. Don't pass up on the OJ in a glass bottle either. Class. Keep it up girls!

I never write reviews but I have to recommend it here!!! The drinks aren't just fun gimmicks, they're great quality and designed with excellent attention to detail. Atmosphere was great too and an extra shoutout to TRIS, the best staff member/ wingman/ your new best friend, who clearly loves his job. Wonderful evening :)

As usual I ended up here because my original spot was really busy. But this place actually surprised me. The food was on point (all day breakfast) and the coffee was really nice. Service was quick. Highly recommend.

We had our last family meal in this small restaurant before returning to France. The owners were lovely and took the time to explain the dishes to us. Homemade of course 😉 we tried coffee, breakfast with beans, sausages, eggs, pancakes and cream cake and everything was really delicious! We recommend without any hesitation!!!!

Potter & Reid – Toynbee Street, London Review Atmosphere & Vibe (4/5) Tucked away on Toynbee Street, Potter & Reid presents itself as a stylish yet standard café setup—think wood, marble interiors, coffee, pastries, and a clear focus on Instagram-friendly brunch dishes. From the look of things, the food might be the real star here, with a steady flow of diners enjoying well-presented plates. Coffee Quality (4/5) I was here strictly for the coffee—ordered my usual flat white, takeaway, with my own cup saving me 20p, bringing it to £3.80. • The coffee was well-made, with clear care and attention from the barista. • It delivered a smooth, creamy foam and a mellow, rounded body—balanced and easy to drink. • While it didn’t offer that robust “kick” I tend to prefer for my first coffee of the day, it was still a solid, enjoyable cup. If you lean towards softer, smoother coffee profiles, this is definitely your spot. Value for Money (4/5) At £3.80 (or £4 without a reusable cup), it sits at the standard price point for specialty coffee in London. Given the quality and attention to detail, it feels fair—but not exceptional value. Overall Rating: 4/5 Potter & Reid delivers a good, smooth flat white in a pleasant setting. While it may not satisfy those looking for a bold, punchy coffee, it’s a great option for a second coffee of the day or when you’re after something more mellow and refined. Would I return? Yes—especially to try the food and pair it with a softer coffee experience.
