Gachas de avena y cruasanes para el desayuno que disfrutamos, pero comer significa subir una escalera bastante empinada y estrecha.

Salimos del apartamento de alquiler de Islington a las 10: 00 am, lloviendo y haciendo frío, los cuatro nos dirigimos a Ottolenghi para el desayuno. Llenos hasta las vigas, con bolsas a cuestas que hicimos cola. Como mesas para dos liberadas, las parejas pasaron junto a nosotros. Veinte minutos después decidimos el plan be. Niece saca rápidamente su teléfono y nos lleva por el camino bajo la lluvia a Kobo. Parecía un poco poco atractivo, pero la bienvenida fue muy cálida y la comida se veía deliciosa. Arriba hay un pequeño café (escaleras empinadas) donde acampamos agradecidos en relativa calma. Comimos salmón ahumado y huevos revueltos con masa madre, café, té de desayuno y fabulosas tartas de crema portuguesa. Alimentos y bebidas calientes y sabrosas, buen tamaño de porción, todo por una fracción del precio que habríamos pagado en la primera parada. El personal es muy amable y servicial con las maletas. Cuando nos fuimos, inspeccionamos con avidez con más detalle la comida que se exhibía. Tantas opciones de sabores y dulces, todo parecía delicioso. Prueba este pequeño café, no te decepcionará. Otro viaje con "irregularidades felices"

Compré 4 sopas en kobo para llevar. Cuando compré 4 pedí el 5º gratis ya que las porciones ya son ridículamente pequeñas para 5 libras cada una. Me dieron el 5to pero al llegar a casa descubrí que estaban poco más de la mitad. Llamé y me dijeron que lo lamentaban y que volvieran y que me darían un par más de cortesía. Camino casi 30 minutos allí en el frío el fin de semana solo para decirme que no me estaban dando las sopas que solo llenan las tazas así mientras la sopa se expande mientras se calienta. Qué montón de basura. Les dije que la mía no se había expandido. El tamaño de estas porciones era solo la mitad de lo que había en las sopas la primera vez que las compré. Necesitas dos de estas sopas para incluso obtener una pequeña porción en un tazón. Les pregunté por qué me pidieron que viniera hasta allí solo para retractar su oferta. Al gerente no le importó. Dijo que su personal no debería haber ofrecido. Un buen gerente sabría que es responsable de lo que ofrece su personal, por lo que debe honrar lo que se le ofreció. Pésimo servicio al cliente. Esto es después de mi primer viaje allí, donde obtuve dos sopas para llevar solo para descubrir que no estaban cerradas correctamente y explotaron en todas mis compras y abrigo. Cuando regresé y me quejé, de mala gana reemplazaron las sopas. No me disculpo por destruir mis compras o mi chaqueta. Como mínimo, les pedí que me dieran una sopa gratuita, que era lo menos que podían hacer. Tuve que lavar mi chaqueta en seco ya que tenía sopa por todas partes. Y afirman la semana pasada que ya le habían dado una sopa de cortesía. Grosero grosero es todo lo que puedo decir. Cero servicio al cliente y estafa. Vea la imagen de la sopa mágica en expansión a continuación. ¡Te lo dejarás si quieres perder 5 libras en eso! ! ! !

This is my favourite place in Islington. The staff is friendly and remembers you, the coffee is good and they even have vegan snacks from time to time. This is my favourite place for a midday break from work and to catch up on some reading/writing.

On visiting Camden passage to collect for clients it was always difficult to find a bite to eat and a coffee on the go..... well venture on to the high street that runs adjacent to the passage and you will find a small but very good coffee shop that does the best coffee I’ve had in a long long time ( and I drink coffee) and a toasted cheese sandwich to die for, and for London the prices were very reasonable. If you’re there I dare you to find nicer. Oh and the staff were as friendly as the coffee & sandwich were good. Safe travels RWH.

Cortado and Flat Whites from here over my few days in the area have been excellent. And perfect temperature, people who say coffee isn’t hot enough are ignorant and don’t understand the optimal temperature good coffee is meant to be enjoyed at. Real good juices and nice healthy bites and fresh foods. Friendly service. Would recommend.

On our way to an early kick off at Arsenal (stadium is very close). We normally have breakfast at the Wetherspoons, but for some inexplicable reason it was closed (on a match day morning?!). Am quite glad it was as we spotted this place just down the road, so gave it a try. Excellent full English breakfast, fresh cooked, tasty, chunky bread toast, good coffee. And a similar price to Wetherspoons, apart from no unlimited coffee refills, with lots of other choices. The lunch etc menu looked good and plentiful too. All served quickly and by friendly staff. Wetherspoons - I think you've lost our business on match days!
