Definitely honest cooked like your Italian grandma would have made. Not too saucy but just right. The also had cannoli which we picked up the pistachio Rene and chocolate ones.

He definitely wasn't aware of his surroundings. The restaurant took care of him and have him a drink and a table. I really appreciated that a lot. It shows they are caring people and that's the kind of business I want to support. Thank you

Personal Amanda problems aside, Natural Kitchen still has lovely salad options and delicious juices-galor. I did finally manage to eat upstairs for their brunch, my only complaint being they put us down for the wrong time even though I checked twice. But come on, no-one died over that. Anyway, the brunch options were good and the food was delish as well. It's a solid place to stop for a nice refreshing breakfast, brunch, or lunch.

Natural K: Would you like your salmon heated up?…read more Uli B: Yes, please! Natural K: That's an extra pound though. Uli B: (empty and confused look) Natural K: It's the law, we're just abiding by the new law...the pasty tax, you know? When you have take-out... Uli B: I see. My dear Natural Kitchen - I've been really trying to like you. In fact, I've come to visit you three times, just to make sure that I'm not writing an unbalanced review about you, but I simply have to say that every time you have simply not met my expectations: 1) I came for brunch with a few friends. You were very crowded and your wait staff was overwhelmed, unfriendly & unprofessional. I know it's very hard to be popular and thus very busy, but please, don't give me an attitude...plus, your Egges Benedict were not that good either! 2) I came because another Yelper mentioned that your take-away salads were really great. In fact, I was ready to forgive you for your misbehaviour during my first visit. And wow, your salad selection does really look impressive - I felt like I was already purified with healthy goodness just by looking at the salads on display. But you let me down again!!! Believe it or not, but the salads didn't have any flavour at all...you know how it is, when you have a stuffed nose and everything tastes the same? This is what your salads tasted like! Seriously, I had three different kinds and non of them tasted majorly different from each other... 3) How does the saying go? First time, shame on you, second time shame on me and third time... While the flavours of the salads had slightly improved during my third visit, the incident with the "pasty-tax" just made me not want to come back to you at all anymore...I'm sorry, while it might be the law, it seems like you are the only business that seems to adhere to it!

Lovely little grocery and cafe on the corner of Vauxhall Grove and Bonnington Square. Everyone is…read moresweet and the food is delicious. They offer espresso drinks (hot/iced), bottled sodas, waters, beers. There is usually a fresh baked pastry or two on the counter. The grocery section has jarred foods and sauces, dry pastas, grains, fresh produce, bread. There is a reach in freezer with cups of Gelato ice cream from a local company called Gelupo. I had the Sour Cherry Riccotta and the Bitter Chocolate. Both were to die for. Chocolate will never be the same for me again after this cup. I will have dreams with it for years to come. They sell chocolate bars as well. The Rococco ones are made in London. Perfect small gift to bring home with you. There are about 10 tables outside plus few benches and picnic tables across the street. There is a wonderful community garden also across the street with additional seating and lovely shaded areas to relax in. Italo offers free WiFi for it's customers, by the way. Ask for the code or look for it in chalk on the walls. I believe they open around 11am and close around 6 or 7pm but it really depends on the volume of sales for the day. Wonderful place with wonderful people. We enjoyed our time spent here very much. Thank you Italo.

Coffee all good, and set us up well for a quick play on the swings in the small square opposite. The inside feels a little dark and close, but the seats on the pavement outside are what make this a 5 star cafe. Visit on a sunny Saturday morning.

Seating is tough and you really gotta scalp, because that's the only way you'll get served. I had the strawberry matcha and my boyfriend got the orange espresso. We both loved the drinks! My boyfriend got the salmon eggs Benedict and I got the baked eggs with chorizo. My dish was phenomenal! My boyfriend owns a bagel store and was impressed by his dish as well. If you showed your marathon bib number, you got a free pasty and we tried a blackberry apple muffin that was so so good. Only wish we could've came back!

Seating is available both indoors and on the sidewalk, choose to sit outside. Ordered the Ciabatta Toscana and a flat white espresso. My sandwich was toasted to perfection and it was delightful to have a flat white espresso! The menu is varied with a variety of breakfast and lunch choices. I also bought a chocolate chip cookie for later. Food was good, customer was average. Our server was not overly friendly , just doing her job. I'd definitely go back if I was in the area , its peacefulness and menu are the attraction.

A lovely cafe off the busy streets of King's Cross. I often find myself visiting this cafe after…read moreschool or after visiting Senate Library. What first drew me to this cafe was the atmosphere. It's airy and sunny with large windows and cute wooden chairs perfect for an afternoon tea (or coffee). The artwork on the menu and outside signs are always changing and one of my favorite parts of visiting. They also decorate the glass windows proclaiming the latest gelato flavors (like matcha or dragon fruit!). Now that I've rambled on about the coziness of the cafe, let's get to the food: They have a good selection of vegan options from sandwiches, salads, and desserts. I usually go for a mocha and/or a gelato. I can definitely recommend the green tea one which was smooth and not too sweet.

Today I came back & not only did he remember my order, when he brought out my coffee & croissant I was surprised to see Miami written in chocolate on my cappuccino. It's little things like this that will make your day & make you come back to dine! They may not be the fanciest cafe on the block, but don't let the exterior fool you.
