Amid the bustling vicinity near ExCeL, there stands a cafe that seems at odds with the streak of culinary innovation elsewhere. Ostensibly an English café, it is notable for its extensive yet perplexing menu ranging from all day breakfasts to fish and chips; dishes which echo traditional comfort but, perhaps, veer into the realm of extravagant pricing. Patrons may find solace in the efficient and polite service as the staff work diligently to maintain a congenial environment. While offerings such as chicken burgers and donner wraps occasionally leave patrons content, entries like the more substantial breakfasts face criticism for not aligning with their elevated tags. Additionally, one may observe the establishment's predominantly unfussy interior, its clashing aesthetic underscored by large promotional photographs that fail to capture the essence of the actual dishes served. Those navigating the locale will discover that despite its affordability-cum-quality paradox, the cafe convenient proximity remains a draw for those reliant on quick dining options within short distances of events at ExCeL.
