Penny Blood's Black Book – My Independent Guide to London - Penny Blood's eclectic collection of favourite places in London to drink coffee, eat cake, have tea, eat out, buy clothes, watch movies, kill time, read Voltaire, quote Baudelaire and write this blog.

Workers Cafe is a great place, a wonderful, tabloid papers, eggs chips and beans respite from the usual try-hard shops and restaurants of Upper street, it’s so wonderfully out of place. Here you can get a great fried breakfast which costs practically nothing and a glass bottle of orange juice for £1.50. The clientele is almost exclusively local workman quietly reading the daily mail over a 3000 calorie meal. It’s plenty spacious and the service is excellent.
