Cafe Express

About Cafe Express

Cafe Express delivers proper greasy-spoon comfort just off Upper Street, where regulars report being greeted by name and the full English comes with grilled halloumi for the vegetarians. The owner's three decades of coffee-making experience shows in the cappuccinos, while the breakfast plates arrive hot, generously portioned, and rarely finished — "Sadly we never managed to finish everything is too much food," one walker-fueller reported after a week-long breakfast run. Kids are welcome with highchairs and a separate children's menu at pocket-money prices, plus buggy-friendly seating and a small outdoor area for warmer mornings. One parent praised the crew for serving apple pie and custard at 9am on request. Tables fill with local workers grabbing bacon baguettes and soup-of-the-day specials. Best for families after the breakfast rush, when regulars report staff remembering their order by the second visit.
