The sausage and egg bap was the best thing I ate in the two days I was in London. Really really nice. Nice staff and a good view too.

A beautiful spot by the river, well kept with really reasonable prices considering the view and the location! Big thanks to Joe & Niki (Apologies if I mispelled that!), some of the best indie coffee in London, brilliant for that area.
