Ordering Strategy
It is a very small space, so be prepared to take away if the few tables are full. Look out for fresh bread deliveries from Bread By Bike.
What to order

Served on sourdough rye, this was a specific highlight for critic Giles Coren.
St John’s Doughnuts
They stock these iconic doughnuts, a rare find outside the main bakeries.
