Zealand is one of the most underrated spots in east london. Personally, their chicken wrap is the best chicken wrap in east london. The coffee and chai here hits every time! I’ve brought friends over from all over including the states, India and Europe - they’ve left happy and wanting to come back. Which many have! Highlights for them were the breakfast platters and the shakshuka The quality of food at Zealand is incredibly high and the prices are very affordable. It’s a real labour of love!

Just had brunch at this gem of a cafe! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with sunlight streaming through the windows and a buzz of happy chatter. I ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs, and it was divine perfectly ripe avocado, a generous sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning, and the eggs were flawlessly poached. The coffee was rich and aromatic, exactly what I needed.
