Sugar ReiFebruary 13, 2015Great interior design, it's in a very narrow building on three levels and everything in it seems to be made to fit perfectly. Friendly staff, welcoming and cozy feeling. Good music.
- Utku CanAugust 9, 2014It's 5AM, your friends want one more drink, you're starving, and none of you are in a state to go to Duck & Waffle. Welcome to your saviour.
Erin ClarkeMay 10, 2017They have the BEST hotdogs! (But only on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights!) I only know because I've gone out of my way to get a hotdog from there on more occasions than I'm willing to admit!
Joanna Chiro LoutsisFebruary 7, 2020Despite being absolutely packed for breakfast, I was seated and served courteously and quickly. Food was tasty and good value. Highly recommend for a good, hearty breakfast.
Paul Anderson-FosterDecember 31, 2016The big breakfast lives on. Not the bargain it once (now £9.90) was but the place is reinvented as a much smarter venue. Open 24 hours - so great to have on the personal radar
24hr cafe diner.. Amazing food at any time of the night. Great change from the usual kebab fest.
Bình HàNovember 5, 2014I had the rib eye, their portion is huge, full of fries. (not the meat, though, too thin to go medium rare). The main point is it's 24hrs and in centre of London. Good vibes.
DarkmiyuMarch 1, 2014English breakfast or beacon and cheese sándwich is mandatory. The have good coffee too and prices are normal. The bar is tinny so to be seat you need to go early
João SantosOctober 26, 2014Nice place, the food was really good. The fact that is open 24 hours makes it even better, you always know where to go for a nice quick meal.- Peter SigristAugust 28, 2013Real local beer, phenomenal burger and cosy atmosphere. Also open all hours - quite an achievement
Sarah FinneyOctober 5, 2012Friendliest caf in the City who remember what you like and can make it for you at 3am. What could be better than a Polo No 1?
Filipe GomesSeptember 21, 2014Quite good coffee and one of the best Natas I've tried outside of Portugal. Not a posh place but nice and cozy.
Dave MarshallMarch 8, 2016Amazing breakfast spot that's open 24 hours a day. Get food delivered by FeastHQ between 11pm and 4.30am
Gabriel De GrandisJuly 23, 2017Great place for breakfast! Friendly staff, fast service, fair price! Free wifi, cosy place...
Leon DeriglazovJuly 1, 2016Their pastries taste and feel like 90% sugar. They'll tell you 'sugar-free'.- Adrienne WoodlandMarch 25, 2019Especially on Sunday night, this is a good spot for late night food. The burger was meh, but the steak and ale pie was great.
- Dan Hopchet ✨August 2, 2015They do Oreo shakes with optional JD shot. Not sure if they serve this early on a Sunday though. Chefs very friendly too
- Lee SimpsonJune 30, 2017Don't underestimate this place, full English breakfast is one of the best is the area!
Anna SmithNovember 17, 2018Open 24 hours, good service, solid (if not remarkable) and reasonably priced food.
【 @tin_fish 】April 23, 2016Avoid football weekends. Great breakfast and respectable coffee - go bacon and egg sandwich!
Katie ZecharMarch 25, 2022Reliably open at all hours. FYI their beloved French toast is only available during daylight 😱
Chris LarkinNovember 29, 2013Best post midnight food I've ever had. Fish finger sandwich was great. Breakfasts looked amazing too.
Gina FieldAugust 27, 2010Awesome breakfasts - at anytime! Great 24 hour caff with a real 1950's feel. FREE bacon rolls for 24 hours on Thursday 2nd September until 7.30am Friday 2nd September.
Great greasy spoon style breakfast in nicely decorated surroundings
Eva Aguado CastroSeptember 23, 2013The home-made scones with cream and jam were delicious, so was the tea :)
Teresa PJanuary 2, 2015Nothing else open in the area so we found here and were pleased. Service not the best, but food was ok. Veggie burger a bit mushy though. Flatbreads are really a wrap for any Americans :)
Great modern look following recent refurbishment ..... Now have a alcohol licence
Rodrigo GalindezOctober 18, 2013Food is shit and will knock your stomach out, but you probably know that. Good for after party meals.
Always guaranteed good food, friendly service and interesting surroundings
Eugene ChuaJune 30, 2015The waitress was quite rude to us as Asians as if we are not spending. Purposely increased the music as if we were sleeping. When there are customers come, the music volume was turned down again.
Danielle WilliamsMarch 31, 2012Wackest bacon sandwich ever but it's open 24 hours. The black pudding was yummy.
