Cozy cafe, solid food, with a side of charm.

Rastro Cafe is the kind of place you stumble upon and think, 'How did I live without this?' Tucked near Bethnal Green Station, it’s got quality food that makes you reconsider your life choices. The focaccia and sourdough are practically begging for you to take a bite, while the warm vibe makes it perfect for catching up with mates or that special someone. The staff are friendly, even if they’re not quite sure what 'artisan coffee' means, but that just adds to the charm.

The reviews suggest that this cafe is a beloved local spot where everyone feels like family—pet-friendly and perfect for lazy mornings. Sure, seating is a bit limited, but who needs a throne when you’ve got coffee this good? Just be prepared for the odd complaint about the espresso not being fresh, but if you’re not a coffee snob, you can easily overlook that—grab a delicious treat and enjoy the vibe.
