Very good value for money, good product, friendly service. Love to see a business not giving in to inflation / price gouging / whatever it’s called. SUPPORT!

We decided to visit Islands café for a spot of lunch on the back of the other Google reviews and what a winner. It's a simple, unpretentious kind of place with a short menu and an unhurried vibe. I went for the Tuna Mexican toastie on ciabatta while my other half plumped for chicken & bacon on sourdough. What a great choice! The bread was fresh, nicely toasted and the tuna filling simply divine. No fancy salad or condiments, no flowers or violin accompaniment, just simple food made well. For dessert I figured that the chocolate and orange cake would be a good chaser but it was a tough choice. There were a lot of cakes on offer and they all looked pretty good. Still I was happy with my selection and it went nicely with a flat white. A lovely place with excellent service. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

“Very cozy and well decorated cafe. Beautiful little garden seating area at the back. Had very yummy bacon and cheese sandwich. Great coffee and a rare find of Vietnamese ice coffee. Fab service and cute dog dumpling to add to the atmosphere. Highly recommend.”

The staff are lovely and the coffee was delicious, I would highly recommend. They also have a useful screen at the till which has the Hornsey train departures on which is brilliant!”

“We tried the Pistachio and chocolate cake which was delicious. Loved the pistachio cream in particular, although the cake was a tad dry, delicious nonetheless. Will be back to try out their pistachio croissants, fruit tarts and savory pies -- they've got quite an extensive range.”

“I cannot recommend Cloud7 in Hornsey highly enough! We recently celebrated my wife’s birthday brunch there, and it was absolutely perfect. The food was incredible – every dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and truly satisfying. The service was exceptional; the staff went above and beyond to make the occasion feel special and memorable. Our children enjoyed it just as much as we did, which is such a bonus for a family outing! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and there was something on the menu for everyone to love. Not only is the quality top-notch, but the value for money is outstanding. Every bite was worth it, and we left already planning our next visit. If you're looking for a spot with delicious meals, attentive service, and a family-friendly vibe, Cloud7 is it. A hidden gem in Hornsey!”

“Can write about how great this caffe is all day but I’ll keep it nice and simple 😂 Came in today under a friends recommendation, was told about how good the customer service and food/drinks were, Luka and his caffe definitely didn’t disappoint! Came in when it was really busy, the young man who turned out to be Luka did a really good job considering he had a lot to do, remembered to make my cappuccino not too hot (specifically asked for it to be done this way) Brought it over with a bright smile, considering there was a queue going out the door he made my drink really quickly. Top marks for him. 🥇 Lovely spinach omelette with cheese, wish I had taken some pictures but left my phone at home. (Will be sure to take some pictures next time I pop in) 10/10 would recommend, did not disappoint one bit”

“Really lovely breakfast spot. Staff really friendly. I ordered the gluten free pancakes which were amazing! They took extra care to prepare mine as I’m coeliac and they reassured me of this upon arrival without any prompt.”
