    Was walking past this place after another disappointing Arsenal game, and the food instantly cheered me up. I had a Salt Beef bagel, with honey mustard and pickles. Holy s**t it was good! You think you won't be full after a small little thing like a bagel, but that was it for me for the rest of the evening. There was a lot of good quality choice of options for my condiments, with a choice of 3 different types of mustard! Who else has that!? The guys behind the counter were so friendly, and very generous considering this was my first time there. They treated me like an old friend, and let me bring my own beer in there whilst consuming. Other options on the menu which really caught my eye, was the rotisserie chicken, at an extremely good price, may I add. Next time Arsenal lose i'll be trying that (so next week then!). Would wholeheartedly recommend this place to any carnivorous beings in North London

    Good coffee at a good price. Food - salt beef bagels, rotisserie chicken, pastries - is just OK.

    Top chicken, top salt beef. Try the sauces n the mac n cheese.

    Great for coffee and pastries, but they are famous for their salted beef & rotisserie chicken (haven't tried those yet!).

    Just walking by when I was lured in by the promise of a salt beef bagel. Delicious, it was! Friendly staff too.

    Really good value and generous portion but most importantly tasted great. The rotisserie chicken smelt so good. Definitely coming back again.

    Absolutely phenomenal. Make sure to get the rostis on the side!

    Can't remember having a better salt beef on rye sarnie than the one I had before the game yesterday. Brilliant value at £5.50.

    A very unique place - having tried the salt beef, chicken and copious donuts, I can honestly say it's amongst the best i've tried and very well priced. The team behind the venture are genuinely good people who take care of their customers. Nathan

    Seriously good rotisserie chicken and great coffee. Just had a very tasty Mac n Cheese. Some tasty looking handmade sauces and relishes too, will try next time. A great new addition to the area #LoHo

    I finally gave this place a try after a game and was very disappointed. Every item we tried was saturated in salt. We ordered a whole chicken to take home and had to bin it. The potatoes were also too salty as was the slaw. Obviously I haven't tried other things on the menu, so it could have been a one off. Waste of my money.
