This is from Saudi Eats in London, with 80k+ followers across social platforms. Instagram & Tiktok: saudieats.ksa We wish there were more coffee shops like this in East london. what a gem! 😮😍 The serene and peaceful ambiance makes it an ideal spot for studying or working remotely. The iced matcha and V60 coffee were some of the best we’ve had in ages, and their afternoon tea is a steal at just £20 for two people. 🔥✨The set includes three pastries or toasties of your choice, scones, and a tea selection, making it truly worth every penny. 💰🥐 🥮 We also tried their siphon coffee, which is brewed using a fascinating method combining science and artistry. Once brewed, the liquid returns to the lower chamber, leaving behind a clean, aromatic, and richly flavored cup. It’s a treat for both the taste buds and the eyes! 😍 We highly recommend this cozy spot for its top-notch coffee and pastries and definitely be returning for the experience. 🙏😍

Anteiku is by far the best coffee shop in the area. The artwork and decor are really cool. Most importantly, the coffee is amazing! and the sourdough toasties are really good.

“A Hidden Gem with Spectacular Food and Warm Hospitality Bell’s cafe is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates great food and a welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with warmth and friendliness that makes you feel right at home. The owner is truly amazing, going above and beyond to ensure every visit is special. The food is nothing short of spectacular. Their smashed avocado with feta on toast, topped with a perfectly fried egg, is an absolute delight—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. And as a self-proclaimed picky coffee drinker, I must say, their caramelized iced latte is my all-time favorite. They get it right every single time, which speaks volumes about their attention to detail and quality. Bella’s cafe is the perfect spot for a relaxed meal or coffee break. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food, excellent coffee, and an environment that feels like a second home.”

“Absolutely loved my experience at Caserta Deli! The food was exceptional, especially the Casatiello Napoletano, must-try! The flavors were authentic Italian and delicious. My only suggestion would be to ensure the food is warmed a bit more for optimal enjoyment. Also, a minor observation, the staff should be more vigilant about keeping the floor clear of rubbish. On a brighter note, it’s a dog-friendly place, which is a huge plus for pet owners like me, I highly recommend this spot for a tasty and authentic Italian dining experience!”
