Embassy East

I go here regularly and love it here. The food is incredible and is always a great twist on brunch. Very flavourful and unique menu. It's my preferred brunch spot in London. I recommend the Eastern Eggs. I loved the French Toast with banana and bacon but they recently changed it to have white chocolate and I much preferred the former version.

Been going here for over 3 years, since they first opened. Good to know that as they grow they haven't lost sight of the most important thing: flavour. Good food, basic, unfussy, generous portion. Laid back service that's friendly but not in your face. Willingness to mingle and welcome the local community so it's not all just posh hipsters or the occasion celeb, and never ever projecting the vibe that they're too cool for you, as so many east London cafes are. My home away from home.

Legends of the East! Refreshing that somewhere still focuses on perfecting the basics of great food, addictive beverages and, at times, entertaining conversation. Personal favourite? The old school tea-time classic of Sardines on Toast; a playful, but mysterious dish with super GENEROUS portions. Very genuine guys and the last bastion of decency in the East. Enjoy!

Nice small breakfast place where you can see the kitchen. Quite chill place with good vibes. The food is excellent (the bread especially), they are doing original recipes and it is filling too. They have really appealing cakes. The price is OK: eggs and meat (lot of bacon strips, sausages, two poached eggs, haggis, succulent bread piece and roasted tomato) for £10 and a French press for 3.5. I recommend it for a good brunch.
