Ep 8 – 05 Dec 2016 – ..the run up to ScalaX 16, otherwise known as..
…Hell Week or The Reckoning…
Location: Workshop Coffee, 27 Clerkenwell Rd, London EC1M 5RN, UK
Order: 1 x Poached egg on toast + Breakfast Tea, 1 x Poached egg, halloumi and avocado on toast + Mocha coffee
Review: 5/5
Comment: Breakfasts are generally the best time for Workshop as the place can get rammed. When it’s good, it’s very good though. Lovely coffee, food is good and just enough and doesn’t suffer from being a mega noisy venue. Certainly on the list of top 5 on this side of London.
