It’s often hard to get a seat here as it’s always heaving. The types who come here are the kind who move to Brick Lane because it’s cool not because they’re cool. I bet everyone here has a job in something related to advertising but they hang out on Brick Lane at Coffee @ on a weekend looking like a graphic designer for a fashionable t-shirt company or record label. I think this demographic fits the majority of East London so whoever is reading this would probably fit right in. I’m probably being unfair though as most of my friends fit into this category. On the definite plus-side it has most of the trappings I look for when drinking coffee: 1. it’s not a Starbucks; 2. it has large comfortable chairs taking up valuable retail space; 3. they do a soy latte; 4. it’s full of people I can guiltlessly slag off; and 5. it’s full of people I want to be friends with.
