JIM'S CAFE • LONDON

59 Chatsworth Rd, Clapton E50LH, United Kingdom

Old school british caff turned into 50s biker bar without being cheesy. Good for vegans, vegetarians, fans of bloody Mary’s and really nice place if you’re in far East London.

Gentrification can be considered, by many, an evil of our times. So when someone takes over an historical Hackney café, once an Italian greasy spoon from the 60’s which has been closed since 2008, and keep all the traditional decor (or as much as possible), give it a good cleanse and still keep it neighbourhood friendly, well that is a really good thing in our books. There is another room at the back which used to be an ice cream factory AND a private dining room. Neighbourhood friendly at any time of the day, they like kids too.
