After london pulled I was looking for a place to buy beautiful coffee sauces and I was directed towards illy caffe. in this coffee shop they serve not only coffee, baked and sandwiches, but also sell their colorful tassen, all uniquely designed by various artists according to given them. the tassen are a bit expensive, but they are really nice and they come in sets based on their thema.

I don’t know about you and your line of work but as for me and mine, I run around all over town all day long. Often I find I’ve got time to kill between meetings and events. Sometimes it’s just 20 minutes, other times it might be a couple of hours. And just because I have time on my hands doesn’t mean I have time to dawdle.

With the recently opened illy Regent Street, being able to do all this stuff in a seriously stylish and comfortable setting just became a real option for me. illy...read more

Lovely café located near Oxford Circus. The coffee was excellent and the muffin was delicious. I did find my waitress a bit unfriendly, but the food options were enticing and they had a wide selection of coffees to choose from.
