A Hackney Wick hangout from DIY party collective The Cause. I love that this cafe is nestled in with other food places, an upstairs bar and a record shop. I only stopped in for a coffee and cake. I was warmly greeted and ordered the peanut butter caramel latte (it's as good as it sounds) and the mocha cake. 100/10. Also green flags for being dog friendly. I can't wait to come back for lunch!

Great place with an amazing view to the river. I love their seitan bacon sandwich and matcha latte. Portions are really big and affordable.

Great vegan options. Good to sit on the terrace overlooking Stratford and the Olympic park.

I had the feijoada and a coffee, and both were delicious. Super chilled atmosphere and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

I love this local spot with great coffee and pastry options. I haven't tried the brunch and would look forward to trying that in the future. It's hard to find a great plant-based café so I'm thankful for having this place close-by. The owner is super friendly, and I love the spacious seating area with good music that's not too loud. Highly recommend.
