This is probably my favourite café in London (and like many others I use as an office) due to the fact that it’s black and white and it’s rare that you see anyone in there who is not either consciously or subconsciously dressed in black or white. They don’t care if you stay there for hours as they are too busy socialising. Situated on the corner of Kingsland Road, Old Street and Shoreditch High Street, it’s heaven for watching people walk by checking out there ooh-so-very-cool (Oh but they really are, if I had a pound for every pair of Rayban Wayfarers that walked by) reflection in the windows just to catch you staring at them. I think there is a photographer’s studio next door as there are always countless freakish looking models schlepping back and forth looking lost and gormless. It also turns into a bar in the evening. Scandinavia’s finest imports come here. It’s full of people in too-cool high waisted jeans with the bottoms turned up. I love how Swedish people all dress the same.
