Love it here. Best cafe in South London. Homemade chips are a highlight.

This place is a little gem. Love to go when I can. Quality sausages and bubble and squeak and lots of tea. Highly recommend.

This is for all my original old school Londoners. If you know what a London caff is then this is the place to go. The food is outstanding and the authentic London caff experience is very much alive in here. If you love London and you love a fry up and want all that with a true London experience, then get down there it's top notch

Solid greasy spoon. Had eggs, bacon, sausage, beans and fried toast. All of it was really good. Would come back again. Cash only though.

Best sausage, egg, chips and beans going! Only complaint is that they’re not open on Sundays so I can’t go twice on the weekend!

The Electric Cafe is a 1900s Cafe, this is a extremely rare find. From the front to walking in you are whisked away to the past.
The cafe boasts a good menu of popular Breakfast items, what stands out to me the most was the quailty and homemade items such as the chips which was some of the best chips I've had 💯 better than the chippies.
I had the full English and my plate was perfect not greasy, balanced portion and delicious. 5 🌟 for 🥓 was crispy and not burnt 👌
Another mention is tea not any standard greasy spoon or cafe will be able to brew you a good cuppa, which Electric Cafe can.
This rare gem is a highly recommended it has been around since 1900s the decor and way things are run are passed from Father to son keeping the tradition going.

One of the best English breakfast I had!

The old cafe 'down the road' who knew it had so much history! Well, I didn't.. and I grew up just round the corner on York Hill. This was simply my local cafe where I'd grab a coffee on the way to college or a sausage bap on way to work. Since moving away from London, I've not visited the electric cafe and just had a flashback and figured I'd have a quick Google to see if it's still there and sure as it is! In all its original glory. My fear was that regentification had caught up with West Norwood, and some hipsters would have bought up this section of the high road, but I am very glad to see it hasn't. Long may it stand. A must visit for all foodies. Great service and food. Thanks for the found memory's
