Long White Cloud - Hackney

Large small cafe, friendly staff, good eating and led by new sea landers! long white cloud is a small cafe on the hackney road, about 5-10 minutes walk from the columbia road flower markets and perfect if they want a few brunch away from the hectic and busy post flower shopping. it belongs to new-sea landers so it must be good. the caffe is beautiful and fresh with white walls and wooden and chairs. the two small tables from the front are perfect to make most of the last sunny days and also for people. we ordered the breakfast from the special table: eggs, salmon and avocado, which was delicious and came on perfectly grilled full grain bread. at 8...more

Just recently moved to the area and after walking past a few times I decided it was time to actually try it out and stop peering in!

The restaurant is owned and run by two New Zealand ladies, Zuzie and Niki – two fabulous ladies i should mention as well. We dined here in the evening, which ended up being one of...read more
