About this restaurant

Great for brunch
Neighborhood gem

Despite its relative youth, our coffee house has developed in to a place where people from all over London, from all walks of life, come to meet. Everyone from students to successful entrepreneurs, actors, doctors, and nurses frequent our house. Since 1698, when the London coffee house cemented itself as the quintessential melting pot of political, philosophical and creative debate, independent businesses have competed to serve the best cup of ‘syrup of soot and essence of old shoes’. Today, no more will ‘essence of old shoes’ satisfy our discerning palettes, but the vibrant social scene has remained as popular as ever. We opened our doors with the aim to recapture the spirit of coffee houses of old; offering the best coffee, the best food and the best service we can.

Very welcoming staff and great that food was prepared to order and request. Menu was more limited than implied on the website - great for meat and cheese lovers - but limited hot food. That said what we did was lovely and lots of homemade bread and chutney etc.

Love the ethos and people at GBs. Only issue is that it isn’t always busy during the week so if you want a buzz around you this isn’t the place, unless you go downstairs where they have live music in a Friday. It is a great breakfast place and of course brilliant coffee! Good food, creatively done and lovely service.
