Luka Caffe

1 High St, London N8 7PS, UK

4.9 (101 reviews)

P: 07711 277982

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

Thank you, it makes such a change to receive such great service in London! We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and will be back in the new year to try breakfast!

Cloud 7 Brunch Hornsey

Cloud 7 is a hidden gem! Every plate is like a work of art, and the flavors are just as impressive as the presentation. The breakfast platter was packed with fresh, colourful ingredients, and the pancakes were delicious – they tasted as good as they looked! The whole vibe is so cozy, and the staff is super friendly. Definitely one of my new favorite spots for brunch. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great food and a beautiful atmosphere!

Great new brunch option opposite Hornsey station. The staff were welcoming and attentive throughout. The kids loved their Nutella and fruit pancakes. I had the Pistachio pancakes which tasted as great as they looked. I highly recommend it if you live close to the area.

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!

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.

Amazing place. My friend took me there today for a coffee and I simply couldn't resist the amazing cheese pie the taste of home. The choice is very hard as there is lots of different types of pie traditional for Greece and the cookie desert menu is huge. The ambient is very nice and they have lovely garden on the back perfect for sunny days nicely decorated with lots of plants. Had the opportunity to meet the boss lady 🙂 Alexandra which makes you to feel welcomed. The customer service was very warm and friendly to point of professional. Definitely I would recommend this place and can't wait to go back.

Very friendly staff! And they always have great variety in their sweet and savoury goods. They make the most delicious hot chocolate too! And while they only have two tables to sit at, it is a great atmosphere with chill music. Also have a great selection of wine and cooking ingredients!

Whilst on my to railway work site, and travelling up from Cambridge, I came across this lovely little coffee shop. The young female staff member was very friendly and helpful. The coffee was lovely and so was my pastry. Definitely cheered me up, thank you.

Great coffee the one thing that irritates my wife is when you order a cappacino and the server automatically puts chocolate powder on top without asking you the server first asked which is a good sign that he knows about coffee

I must have completely missed this place and walked past it a hundred times, but today I grabbed a coffee and it was 10/10! 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 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.

Such a lovely cafe. The owners are friendly and do all their own baking. The husband makes the most wonderfully light, moist cakes and I've never eaten such soft muffins before (I recommend the toffee apple muffin). They also showcase some dishes from their home country, so I've had the pleasure of being introduced to an Iranian potato with saffron sandwich. Delicious! I thoroughly recommend this cafe. It's cheaper than any on Turnpike Lane High Road and a lovely place to indulge your sweet tooth!

As if the delicious brunch wasn’t good enough, we had the company of Dumpling (see picture 2) 😍 during our second visit to this hidden gem in Wood Green. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is charming and cool with a cozy vibe that makes you feel right at home. Plus, their little garden is the perfect spot for the summer. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and warm atmosphere makes it a must-visit spot. I highly recommend giving it a try if you're in the area.

If you want some affordable classic breakfast/brunch in the neighboorhood, you must try the haberdashery. This is one of the cheapest yet nice foods I’ve tried in the area. The size of the food is not overwhelming and just right. Plus it is kid and pet friendly!

This was a perfect British Breakfast. Had everything you’d expect but tasted fresh. The sausages were so good and the eggs cooked perfectly. They somehow took very long to bring our turmeric latte but it was good and was alright to have at the end of the meal
