Food Scene

Great café with a French owner doing good coffee and food for breakfast, brunch, lunch. Can get busy but always accommodating. Great cakes and croissants. The granola, berries and yoghurt for breakfast is superb.

This is closer to the flat, you can see it down the road when you leave. It is more secluded or off the main road so sometimes be nice to go and hang out. Good coffee and nice staff. Does food for both breakfast, brunch, lunch and fresh bread to buy for the week. Open daily

Great Cocktail place. Off the main Essex road. This is a place James Bond would have gone if he was a real character! Waiters dressed up and know their drinks.
