Mehmet's is an ace little place. Full on huge, hot portions, comfy seats, strong coffee and fast service. It's no frills, a few pictures decorate the walls, but there are nice big windows to check out all the fun of suburbia walking past. The prices are cheap as can be, but this doesn't reflect badly on the place - the black pudding is one of the best I've ever tasted, and you can see the entire kitchen, so you can tell it's nice and clean. Need a breakfast that'll last you pretty much all day - hit it up!

This place is tiny, filled with tons of baked goods a treats. Ordered two cappuccinos & 2 mini cupcakes, a hazelnut one and red velvet.

Thanks to Yelp, I found the branch of Konditor and Cook bakery closest to the theatre. The entire staff was very helpful over the telephone and via email as well as live chat. They delivered an elaborately decorated Curly-Whirly cake to the Globe right on time. My daughter and the other members of her troupe all agreed it was one of the best tasting cakes they'd experienced I am looking forward to visiting the store next month when we visit our daughter in London. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it was somewhat pricey with dollars vs. pounds. I would recommend this bakery for any American who has someone overseas in London and needs a cake for a special occasion.

I like this place because of their variety of pastries and they are all fairly priced. Anything from salty to sweet is available. They have all the standard espresso drinks and complimentary still water. I order the sausage roll along with a large cup of latte. Everything can be reheated in the oven if desired. Within 5 minutes my order was delivered. The latte art was poorly constructed but that wasn't a big deal for me. I'll take a good tasting cup of latte over a bad cup with a beautifully etched leaf on it any day of the week. Free wifi is another plus especially for a tourist without a international SIM card. Get yourself a pastry or coffee and Facebook all you want.

This branch is one of the smaller Gail's you can find and it does get cramped with the entrance/exit door system, which can lead you to queuing outside. However this is just a constraint of the building itself, the service is great, consistent and employees are speedy getting through the queue. Be sure to get there as early as possible to ensure you get what you want before they run out!

On my last visit, a coworker told me about this little gem, which is not far from Lloyd's. It was a freezing cold day, I didn't have a coat, but I still went on the journey to Konditor & Cook.

I also had a hot chocolate (I don't drink coffee often), but my coworker had a latte and it looked good. This shop is now on my regular rotation in London...it's always a great day when you have cake for lunch!

I know they are typically known for their cakes but the lunches here give you quick access to homemade classic dishes. I usually get the enchilladas, chili con carne, fish pie (super good!) or one of the daily quiches. The menu changes daily and there is rarely a time I don't find something to drool over. If you go I highly recommend the Boston Brownie, Raspberry Chequerboard Cake and the Millionaire Shortbread from the bakery. My only issue: Take the mushrooms out of the Mac n Cheese!
