"Probably some of the best coffee in London. The service is flawless with some of the nicest staff possible. Very much enjoy every visit. If you're ever unsure of where to get coffee the common E2 will never disappoint. Definitely give it a visit."

"Was working in the area today and stumbled upon this little gem. Only went in to grab a couple of coffees, ended up with a couple of sausage rolls and I can honestly say hand on heart that was the best sausage roll Ive ever had... Coffee was good too. Will be back next time I'm up town... Amazing stuff"

"I popped in to get a coffee and some banana bread when I was working nearby. What a fantastic find! Proper coffee and the bread was 10/10 too! We met Mark and Gabriella who greeted us with a smile and are clearly passionate about what they do. Lots of lovely plants around the shop. Can't wait to visit again."

Whether you are vegan or not it’s a veritable delight for the tastebuds with sweet raspb..." Read more

"We were so lucky to find The Common E2, a friend had told us about it and said the new chef who apparently was called Patrick was very good and we weren't disappointed. It was full when we arrived and we waited a few minutes as the lovely Gabi said she would find us a table right away. We ordered from the brunch menu, it was delicious, plenty of choice for m..."

"Popped in here with a couple of friends for a spot of brunch. We were not dissappointed! Coffee was delicious and I tucked into the weekend special of Chorizo, Potatoes, Salsa Verde and Aioli. So tasty! Had to finish with a huge wedge of Plum Cake. I wish I lived closer so I could go every weekend! Highly recommend. Fantastic breakfast served, nice people, l..." Read more
