Franze & Evans Cafe Hackney in Hackney

I have visited this place a couple of times over the last few years and have always had a good experience. The staff are attentive, the food is always good, I would highly recommend it!

Amazing breakfast, delicious food l love going there everyday.

Been here a couple times, and the food never disappoints! It’s always freshly made and delicious!! The breakfast menu is my favourite, I would 10/10 recommend!!

My go to spot! The full English always does the trick.

I have visited this place a couple of times with my kids, and I must say it's always an enjoyable experience. Friendly staff, great breakfast and lunch options, and it's nicely decorated. Definitely recommend!!

I ordered lasagne, it came warm outside but cold in the middle and I ate a bit of it before realising and then they heated it. And today I have food poisoning !

Great discovery. This restaurant/café/coworking area is very cosy and well decorated. If you need a place to work or chill, go there without a doubt!!

Bad experience. Called ahead to see if they allowed pets, the owner said: “as long as it’s not an elephant”. But when we arrived and ordered, he rudely said big dogs weren't allowed and we should eat and leave the place. We decided not to eat there. This was very disappointing so definitely not coming back

Absolutely awful. The girl working there was nice, but the whole cafe was a mess. Everything's dirty, the guy running the place was a mess too. The coffee quality was awful too.

We were really let down by our recent visit. Before heading over, we called to check if they are pet friendly (cause we have dog). The owner joked over the phone, saying as long as our pet wasn't an elephant, it was fine. But when we got there and ordered, he came over and rudely said big dogs weren't allowed, referring back to his elephant joke. We ended up not eating there. It's frustrating when places don't stick to what they say and treat customers poorly.

It's rare to find such a perfect co-working space with excellent food and drink and interesting soundtracks! Amy and Harlam are amazing baristas who provide friendly, attentive service and really contribute to the relaxed vibes of the place! If there could be more vegan lunch options, Franze Hackney would be EVEN better!

Great coffee and lovely staff except from the older guy with white hair and glasses who works there, who is a very stressful energy who clearly micromanages his staff and causes them to feel anxious when they're around him -- leave them to do their job and trust that they're doing great work! This is why I give 3 stars for 'atmosphere' which is a real shame :(

Your menu online for this branch says you serve food (hot, cooked food, not the items left on the counter all day) until 3:30pm but on enquiring apparently the kitchen closes at 1pm and that is disappointing service to me.

My partner and I came to the cafe for the second time after enjoying our coffee here the other day. Last time we bought oat latte's, this time usual milk latte's. The coffee tasted bitter, sour even, the milk tasted gone off, it tasted really bad with a lasting after taste so I told the two people serving that the coffee was bitter and if I could please change them for oat milk latte's. The guy said I can exchange then tried to charge me £2.95 for a whole other coffee in exchange to which I responded that I had already paid £5,95 so it would only be oat milk I need to pay for. I don't know why he tried to charge us another coffee for a simple exchange if there was something wrong with the coffee. The lady who made the original latte's made the oat milk latte's and gave it to me clearly offended that i took the coffee back with no smile, negativity and a cold stare. It was not personal to her skills of coffee making that i returned it, the milk tasted gone off so of course i wanted to switch. I was not happy with either of this reluctant service to simply change my coffee, I know the taste of milk when it has gone bad. The oat latte's given also tasted like a shared shot between both coffees as we could not taste the coffee. It did not wake us up, taste like coffee or like the first time we came. We went on to continue our work, drank our coffee, to look up and see the both of them were talking between themselves staring over at us. This felt like a we were being talked about in offence because we changed the coffee. This type of immature behaviour is unnaceptable, it should not be taken personally if something is wrong with a coffee and needed changing, let alone to congregate and clearly be talking about us as customers. We originaly felt this is a comfortable environment to work, eat and drink, we are yet to try the food menu which we looked forward to trying. Although after this we don't wish to come back. Things will sometimes go wrong with coffee making and to simply exchange and continue would be the service that shoud be given, not this level of immaturity.

It's my secret place, my favorite place. I love the attention, the coffee, the desserts, and the kitchen is great. You can take your children to your dog and feel at home.

Popular in the area, especially with the young upwardly mobile of today. Although a limited menu, what's on offer is pleasing to the eye and tasty. The prime driver is it is a mobile work area and food spot.

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere, very nice staff!! Would recommend visiting this place.

-Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. -proper coffe -very tasty arancini and carrot salad -spacious working space, perfect for meetings. -clean and comfortable lavatories. Bravo!

great coffee and cake, also great space to work!

Coffee is really good. Omelet was great too. It has a coworking feeling. Many people sit there with their laptops. There are tables, cubes and couches. It is comfy place.

Small portions, high prices, average food

Really spacious venue - A great alternative if working from home....

Another instagram friendly chain cafe turning mare street into an identikit of any other 'hip' high street in London Food looks good on social media and expensive but taste.... not so much Dare to be different, support one of the locally owned businesses on mare street like Sun Golzeme House or Mare Street Cafe Bar just up the road

Jeeeeeeeeez the food here is mad good. I came into Franze and Evans today to wfh as I wanted a change of scenery and not only are the staff friendly and super helpful, but the food and coffee is top quality. Such a lovely place to work and munch. Such a great vibe. If only I had room for the range of gorgeous cakes on offer!

Best brunch and coffee for miles. I've returned multiple times for breakfast and lunch whenever I'm around hackney. You must try the French toast it's peng. Say hi to Janie and Misha they are lovely too.

Lovely spacious yet intimate cafe, child & dog friendly. Deliciousness all round from salads to cakes. Friendly, accommodating team who couldn’t do enough to help. Great customer experience - will be back… regularly

Whilst looking for somewhere to eat with my family after my son's football class in London Fields I was delighted to find another Franze and Evans has just opened in Mare Street Studio's. The space is amazing, large enough for families and plenty of space to cater for prams and children. We also had a small dog with us which was no problem and space was very comfortable with large sofa's to lounge on too. From little ones to grandparents all our tastes were catered for with the same great signature food and cakes that you can find on Redchurch Street, Cremer St and in Bow. This is definitely a great place to check out and one to keep on your radar.

We had an excellent meal in this new addition to the are. I had the trecolore, the poached egg was done to perfection and love having spinach as well as smoke salmon at the same time! There is a promotional deal on so we were compelled to try the dessert and we were not disappointed. I thought the croissant pudding was an absolute delight. Would love to return and try the other dishes.

The place is stunning, spacious and modern! The food is gorgeous, creative, tasty and mouth watering. Staff friendly and polite. Definitely recommend!!!

Amazing lunch, coffee and cakes... beautiful space with attentive service .. Definitely a must go!

We had a fabulous lunch with friends. Can't recommend enough the food and especially the cakes 😋

Been today for brunch with 5 friend ,the food was as usual very good, delicious cake to Die for nice Spritzer and excellent coffee. can't wait to go back .Definitely a great addition to Hackney.

best flat white ever, fantastic yummy salad and great customer service will definitely be going back
