Love this place! It has awesome coffee (flat whites) and i really liked the selection of sandwiches. Very gourmet, using fresh bread and ingredients. The salads are fresh and i liked the portion sizes.

Loved the fact that you could get all your Aussie treats too.Love this place! It has awesome coffee (flat whites) and i really liked the selection of sandwiches. Very gourmet, using fresh bread and ingredients. The salads are fresh and i liked the portion sizes.

Really lovely place for freshly made seasonal food. Pod does delicious hot and cold breakfasts and lunches.

I love the organic super porridge or the smoothies for breakfast.

For lunch I go for one of their really tasty salads or one of the hot dishes like the thai green curry or spicy meatballs.

Super tasty and super healthy.

All of this plus staff that are friendly too.

Albion is a great looking cafÃ©/restaurant/shop connected to the new Boundary Hotel in Shoreditch. It has a gourmet food shop at the front, and a bright and welcoming dining area at the rear with an open kitchen.

Arriving at Albion on a Sunday at midday I was happily surprised to see only a very short queue for tables, which cleared almost immediately. We were handed breakfast menus (it seemed that lunch service began at 1pm) which was fine by us.

Kelly ordered Poached Eggs on toast (the eggs were slightly overcooked), and I had the Albion Breakfast, which came with eggs, bacon (streaky or back), baked beans, roasted tomato, sausage, mushrooms, and black pudding. I threw the black pudding and sausage Kelly's direction, and shoved the mushrooms (which I had asked not to be included) to the side. The food was really tasty, the atmosphere good, and I am keen to return to try their lunch menu.... and perhaps one of those big cupcakes they were selling in the shop.Albion is a great looking cafÃ©/restaurant/shop connected to the new Boundary Hotel in Shoreditch.

Nude Expresso is a cool place. Nude gives a whole new meaning to â¬Üspaceâ¬" thatâ¬"s vital to enjoy your coffee. I think Iâ¬"m beginning to think that the Kiwi interior is basically Scandinavian with warmth. Itâ¬"s actually huge compared to all the other bespoke coffee oases in London and like all antipodean joints, expect this place to be genuinely friendly and welcoming. The usual display of superior sweet and savoury snacks is beautifully laid out to entice the appetite.

Alas, the Flat White didnâ¬"t quite cut the mustard, it was smooth but it lacked kick. A second FW was ordered to clarify doubts; much the same as the first; am I right in suggesting that all FWs are supposed to be made with at least two shots of espresso? The two that I had certainly didnâ¬"t taste that way. Perhaps the mildness of the FW is part and parcel of Nude and consequently I belong to the â¬Üfull-on-hitâ¬" of coffee aficionados. Give Nude its due, the FW is the cheapest in London.

A bit pricey for a standard sandwich joint, but the people serving are friendly and the sandwiches are tasty.
