I am a fan of this 90's theme cafe! They had 90's memorabilia everywhere you looked: on the walls, in the bathroom, and you had the option to sit on beds ...BEDS! The beds had 90's themed sheets which was something that I had never seen before. As a 90's baby, I felt like I was reliving my childhood dream being surrounded by so much 90's themed items and movies. Also to add to the serial killer theme they have portraits of real serial killers made out of cereals (you'll have to visit to see for yourself). It is about a 20 minute walk from the Liverpool underground. I recommend going either for breakfast because cereal or in the mid-afternoon because it isn't a full-on meal. Depending on what you order you could get a meal or a snack. My friends and I ordered a snack-like meal because we didn't want to have cereal for dinner. I ordered the PEC which is peanut butter chocolate flavored cereal. I will say that for cereal it is slightly expensive, but for the experience of the cafe and the food it is worth it! There is nothing like this were I am from so the atmosphere was something that I had never experienced before which made it 10x times better! read more

This place is awesome and such a cool concept. So many cereals from the US and the UK, including ones that I hadn't even seen in the US since I was younger! Was lucky enough to visit on one of their less busy days (Friday morning...seems like it would be busy?), but heard the queue's get long. I had the Peanut Butter Jelly Time, so good with the strawberry milk! I forgo my lactose intolerance for a day to have this and it was so worth it. Seriously! The vibe inside is awesome and the staff is friendly and willing to help if you want to switch anything up in their pre-made "cocktails." Lots of vintage and retro memorabilia. Really enjoyed the Dexter "cereal" killer artwork on the wall. Definitely worth the trip out to Brick Lane! read more

I love it! Back to the 90's and childhood. They have a large choice of cereals. It gets a little crowded sometimes. read more

Cerealously cool.. I absolutely adore this place! Cute, kitschy, nostalgic and oh-so-very-hipster - but in the best kind of way! With around 120 cereals to chose from, you can mix, add and chose til your hearts content what you want in your bowl of amazing-ness that comes with an adorable mini milk bottle to pour in! I really love the whole concept of this place. Cannot wait to come back the next time I'm in London for my bowl of sugary goodness! read more

We found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try (even though I was still full from breakfast). The place is small, but it has a big variety of cereal, national and imported. They also have their own little concoctions of cereals such as the unicorn poop, which was pretty sweet and colorful, as expected LOL. When I was done, I went downstairs to look for the restroom.. but I only found some more chairs and tables. They do not have a restroom, but they suggested to go to the business next door, which apparently is ok with people to go to the WC there. Cool concept, I just wish they had a restroom. read more

THIS PLACE IS CEREAL HEAVEN! I experienced Nostalgia at Cereal Killer Cafe! This place is fantastic with a wide selection regarding cereal and anything sweet! I had the frosted flakes and hot chocolate with brownies! The top floor is really cool with all types of cereal hanging on the wall. But the downstairs is even cooler taking it back to the 90's. This place had old Vcr's, animations/music from the 90's & even a throwback posters of Nsync! This place needs 5 STARS because it's iterally the coolest place in Shoreditch! read more

Thanks yelp for finding this gem. This is something that simply wouldn't be real back at home. I love this area..its fun and full of specialty shops and vintage material. This shop really hit the need for a fun breakfast! You have a few options for your cereal. You can either build your own (pick which cereal you want along with size and type of milk), and then add toppings for I think 40p per topping. The other option would be to pick one of their original mixes. They hsve a lot of options to pick from. You can sit upstairs if there is room, or go downstairs for more seating. I would suggest going elsewhere for coffee. They have a few old school tvs and posters there as well. Loved it, thanks! read more

My 16 year old daughter begged to come her. Admittedly it's a very interesting concept. It was fun inventive and creative. The location is a bit small which makes it feel Bohemian. That may be part of its lure and charm. They do have an extensive selection of cereals. Their mixed recipes are interesting and milkshakes are gorgeous. They look like they were created by Hanna-Barbera. The bottom line: this is a great tourist stop but not likely a regular stop for locals. read more

Went here on a hot/humid afternoon, no a/c means NOT that great. But everything else was awesome, we got the bowloccino and mint choco chipster. Since it was hot, the milk wasnt super ice cold (which i prefer) but the flavor was good. The basement was filled with Thundercats, Ducktales and Clarissa Explains it All. Very fun, Portland/Brooklyn like feel to it, most of Shoreditch is. read more

I lived in London for three months and the Cereal Killer Cafe was recommended to me several times before I left. I knew I had to go and had passed it a few times on the way to work but never really had the desire to walk in since cereal wasn't my top choice for a meal. The vibe of the place was pretty cool but I think the spot is overrated. The employees were very nice but the service was extremely slow and what i thought was going to be an in-and-out turned into a 30 minute wait for a bowl of cereal. I'd say this place is perfect for tourists who have some time to kill, but if you're in a hurry, maybe just come for the pictures. Overall, the restaurant is really cool and definitely Instagram worthy but the cereal wasn't as interesting as I expected it to be. Make sure you have other meals lined up for your day if you choose to eat here! read more

Cereal Killer Cafe - The inside wall of Cereal Killer Cafe in Shoreditch - Cafes Near Me - London, XGL

In the half hour I spent standing in a line of just five people, I came up with a list of strategies that would have prevented this half hour wait: -all four staff members were wearing every hat (taking orders, running orders, bussing tables). There was a full five minutes where no one was at the counter. Divide and conquer blokes. -Invest the 20 minutes it would take to provide an up to date inventory each morning. Post that on social media, and in story. Every order in front of me included three strikes of items not being available and/or staff members spending valuable minutes to see whether they had something. -Spend half an hour reading up on the psychology of choice to drive your menu. Few choices provided with the above, accurate inventory will go a long way in making choices easier and customers satisfied. Premise is great, prices more than fair, but business model, or at least management at this location, will be detrimental. read more

What: Hot Chocolate for Drinks Where: Grand Central, Birmingham, UK The Dish: Stacked Hot Chocolate [Read more...] Value: £6pp Food Review: To order: Stacked Hot Chocolate The stacked hot chocolate is a childhood dream come true, hot chocolatey milk with a load of extras piled on top such as cream, chocolate pieces etc. Half drinkable, half edible, 100% amazing. It is definitely a sharing drink/dessert. I have had the cereal before but not this time, but is a must for anyone craving hard to find cereals from their childhood and then some. There range includes all the favourites and more. Sober Status: Alcohol is not served on site When I next visit I would have: to try the cereal cocktail, a mix of cereal and drinks such as espresso. Halal: No Internal and External Review: The interior in this branch is amazingly done considering the space on offer, a side section of a corridor. The seating area consists of beds for tables decked out with cartoon covering (there are normal table aswell but you can get those anywhere).television screens playing old cartoon videos from childhood. Along the walls are posters, videos and colourful crates to separate the area and act as a wall. All in all, a fun childlike place for everyone. The Service: The drinks were given quickly and nothing could be faulted when it comes to service. Sum up: Quick drink or cereal. Definitely the novelty factor but sometimes a little light heartened is needed. read more

The reason I'm not giving this place 5 stars is mainly because of the service. As the staff member was pouring the cereal I ordered, I heard him tell his coworker that the cereal I ordered looked like shit. This cereal bar is a great concept but definitely not a place I would want to come back to. read more

I was going through restaurants in London on Yelp and this one caught my eye and since we were staying within relative walking distance to this place, I thought we should check it out and it was one of the coolest places I've ever been to!! First off, being a 90s kid the decor and ambiance totally fit my vibe. And admittedly, cereal was my main breakfast of choice as a kid 90% of the time. So I felt like I was back in my childhood just being in the cafe. At the bottom level, they even have twin beds where you can enjoy your cereal, along with other cool retro artifacts. The possibilities of your cereal creation is endless! I decided to go with The Lion King since I'm a fan of the caramel/chocolate mix and it was delicious!!! The caramel milk used can be customized to your liking as well so I went with soy. Now, £4 for cereal is not exactly cheap but the experience was so worth it! read more

I know the concept of paying loads (£4+) for a bowl of cereal is silly.. but I still really wanted to check out Cereal Killers cafe and I'm not sorry I did! The decor is really cool, old school cereal boxes all over the walls and fridge-magnet style board menus to peruse whilst in the queue. There are so many options that the queue time barely feels like long enough to make a decision. I eventually had 'unicorn poop' which was a cereal cocktail of party rings, rice crispies, little marshmallows, sprinkles and a big dollop of marshmallow spread in the middle. And a little bottle of semi-skimmed milk, although you can swap that for loads of different flavours (chocolate, caramel etc.) It was truly delicious! When I went it was packed and there wasn't a huge choice for seats, I ended up at a table with my friends right next to the queue, which was a bit awkward as people kept gawking at our cereals whilst deciding themselves. If this place calmed down a bit then it would be a really lovely little kooky cafe for an all-american cereal treat. I had a lovely time and will come back if all the hype ever dies down! read more

As all of the reviews have said this place is awesome! I have raved about the cocktail for days now and cannot get the sugary dream out of my mind, i will definitely have to make another stop before returning to reality. Now, the cereal itself is quite a small portion so i would recommend adding in maybe a coffee or if you are feeling frisky, the milkshakes are AMAZING! read more

Possibly I am not the target market for this place. It just feels to me like it's really, really trying to hipster cool - by doing that reverse things of desperately trying to not to be trying! Food is OK as far as it goes, which isn't far. The location is cramped & the decor is, not surprisingly, not to my taste. I'm sure they have a particular clientele, but not for me. read more

I have to admit that I am really envious of the free publicity that this place got - I first heard about it in a newspaper article, and since my brother has quite a cocktail of cereal when he is at home, I decided that I might really enjoy coming here. Straight out I have to admit that the concept behind this place is awesome - a cafe devoted entirely to breakfast cereal. It certainly is a very hip concept, and I don't think I know of any place where you can actually order breakfast cereal for breakfast (though they do serve breakfast all day). While you can have a single serving of cereals, they also offer cocktails, namely a mix of different cereals, and of course they have coffee as well (though the coffee was okay, nothing hugely spectacular). However, I have to admit that there are a couple of areas where they fall down, and it isn't just the coffee. First of all they don't have a huge selection of juice. In fact I can't remember if they had any juice. Secondly, other than gluten free cornflakes, pretty much all of their cereals are the fancy, high in suger, types - this isn't a place you go for a healthy meal. While I loved the concept, I was quite disappointed that my brother, who was looking forward to a cocktail of cornflakes, rice bubbles, all bran, and wheat germ, ended up only having some gluten free cornflakes. read more

I'd see the queues for this tiny place and was put off, especially as a I saw the half term kids about in swarms but as my office is quite near I'd been past it at lunchtime a few times when it seemed fairly more quiet. My friend and I decided to lunch here dead on midday and were able to grab the last two seats in the window which was a result. The menu was great fun and we decide to opt for their cereal cocktails - I got the lion king (lion cereal/coco caramel shreddies/mars mix/caramel milk), certainly a lot sweeter than what I normally get for lunch. Although it may be the most expensive bowl of cereal you've had, it might be worth it if not just for the novelty but for the perfect instagram food porn pic. read more

I came here with friends after accidentally walking past it and into the chocolate shop next door. We went up to the counter to order our bowls of cereal. I'd recommend getting the combinations they already have on the chalkboard wall, but to each his/her own! You basically customize your breakfast bowl - size, type of cereal, toppings, and choice of milk. They offer non-traditional milks as well, such as almond, soy, and even a banana-flavored one. I didn't get a bowl since it was sort of pricey (4 quid for a normal-sized bowl). American cereals are on one side of the wall, and British cereals are on another. They also have display shelves with vintage cereal boxes, which were pretty cool to look at. Tl;dr - expensive cereal, but a novel place to check out. read more

I know that people might think this cafe is overrated, but I can assure you, it's not!! I really enjoy going here. When I heard that London was getting a cereal bar, I thought "how weird". But then I went, and thought it was genius. Where else can you find your favorite cereal? Cereal Killer Cafe offers cereal from all around the world in addition to pop tarts and really wacky toppings like crushed Oreo cookies and marshmallow fluff. They also have all kinds of milk, including almond milk for those super healthy/lactose challenged customers. I'm afraid I am boring and predictable, as I order the same thing: Captain Crunch with skim milk. I always get a large bowl - it doesn't make sense to get anything less!! Also, you can mix and match cereals and go crazy! The prices are a little high, but you go for the experience and the cereal selections. read more

Cereal Killer Cafe - Some of the many selections here at the cereal cafe - Cafes Near Me - London, XGL

The place itself is a lot of fun. It's filled with 90's nostalgia. I ordered the caramel hot chocolate. It was good but I wish the menu would have said which cereal they put in it because pops aren't my favorite. I would've ordered something else if I knew. The hot chocolate wasn't worth the £5 but it was a fun experience. read more

Absolutely love this place!!!! Alright- I have to admit that this was probably the most expensive bowl of cereal I've ever had but it was so delicious!! And it's so much fun to do pick the different cereals and toppings you like. Tough decision but I picked the "double rainbow" one and was not disappointed. I felt like a kid again and smiled over every spoon with a blue froot loop on it- the only colour we don't have in the German froot loops. They have some cute little souvenirs (also pretty expensive) but I couldn't leave without taking a bottle of 'freeze dried cereal marshmallows' with me :-) read more

I'll admit that I was sucked into the hype for this place and decided that I must go while in London. I mean - the place just looks cool! When I got inside, the place smelled really odd. It was really hot and smelled kind of like milk (not in a good way though). I did love the way the place is decorated. It kind of makes it perfect for a photo-op, which is why I guess every single customer that enters is so wide-eyed and snapping photos like a crazy person. I felt a little bad for the people that worked there because they are probably in a million photos but I guess they are used to it? I did snap one or 2 pics, but I was discreet about it, ok?! Anyways, I got some cereal. It was nothing special really since you can get a whole box for like $2 in America. I'm not sure if it's available in the UK? I didn't know that people actually wanted to eat Poptarts and cereal like that. I thought it was just part of my parents doing a bad job. I didn't know that people actually added other toppings to cereal like chocolate pieces and such. That is just odd. They really do have a good variety of cereals - even some rare ones. It is interesting that they had different types of milk (almond, hazelnut, etc) but they are from the box so don't expect freshly squeezed ones. I was disappointed about the banana milk flavor because it was actually like just 5 slices of an actual banana that they cut up and put into the cereal. At least blend it into the milk or something. I think it's more about the experience and the novelty. It did bring back some nostalgia. read more

was stuck xmas eve in london from missing my flight (im such a stupid american) but got the luxury of spending a night in london and exploring it a bit before my next flight! on xmas eve, there isnt much open, but cereal killer cafe was! this cute little place has all different kinds of cereals for you to order or you can customize and order what you want! they also make lattes with milk soaked in cereal, and ice cream that you can plop on top of your cereal too. if this were not breakfast, maybe i would've tried the ice cream. got one of their special cereals. im usually not a big cereal person but it was good! on top of that, the owner (im pretty sure it was the owner) was super gracious and friendly during this time, and had a great time meeting him and visiting his establishment. must come if you are in the area! read more

I had heard about this little gem of a place from friends and was excited to try it. I was very disappointed to learn they were out Reese's peanut butter cereal but was told it was very popular which doesn't surprise me I drowned my sorrow in chocolate coco puffs with Reese's pieces and peanut butter chips. I will definitely being going again to get my cereal fix. Very cool decor and unique idea would definitely recommend read more

Great place to have a bowl of cereal plus the added extras! Being surrounded by well known cereals, cereals that I never knew existed and cereals I devoured when I was a kid...I've been hit with nostalgia baby! So why the 3 stars? Don't get me wrong, I think the cafe is a great place! However, it was extremely busy and over crowded, the que was long, and we had difficulties finding seats. I understand that its out of the cafe's hands but what do you expect for such a fantastic place? read more

Great concept. Poorly executed, order a lucky charm milkshake, took 15 mins (place was empty) warm milk no flavour stupidly priced, Don't recommend read more

Popped in for breakfast on Sunday morning. We were really lucky as we ordered and sat down just as a rush of people came in. The cafe is a little overwhelming as there are cereal boxes all over the walls. I was so excited I could barely read the menu. After what felt like an eternity I picked Reese's Puffs as I'm obsessed with Reese's Pieces and anything peanut butter flavour. The milk selection is very impressive, I was very conservative and had semi-skimmed milk. We managed to get a table upstairs but it's tight when there's a queue. There's seating down stairs but I have no idea if it's more spacious. I really like it here and I don't care if everything I like will rot my teeth! read more

This place has such a douchebag waitress. Just because we wanted to try one cereal doesn't mean you can be mean to us. I get that we're Asian and less privileged. Definitely regretted visiting here and plus such a overpriced place. Don't visit. Just take pics from outside. read more

WTF??? Would have loved to have seen the business model for this concept and I imagine they probably had 'challenges' convincing anyone to finance the idea. But... it works. Very popular and fun vibe. Probably not something you'd go to on a regular basis - but definitely worth checking out for a visit. I enjoyed it - but I wouldn't line up. So pick your time - or visit if your walking past and it looks quiet. read more

Definitely worth paying a visit here at least once. The selection is hugggge which actually makes it quite tricky to choose just one thing as it all looks so good. Lots of effort has has gone into the interior with loads of interesting retro stuff to admire. I wouldn't personally go here to regularly as SUGAR OVERLOAD but if a friend was visiting and wanted to I wouldn't argue. Recommended read more

Showed up at 9:15am on a Wednesday morning to check out this place. The sign on the door clearly stated that they were open daily at 8am. Unfortunately they were not open. Unless you are already in the area I wouldn't recommend heading all the way to Brick Lane just for this experience. read more

This place is one of the best places I've ever eaten at! The staff is amazing - not many places will seat a group of 25 american's 15 minutes before closing time - the atmosphere is one of a kind, and I think it's almost impossible to not enjoy every second of time spent here. I will definitely be back, Cereal Killer Cafe!! read more

Amazing amazing, hundreds of choice of cereal even milk!! Fabulous decorated with old childhood style objects! They name all the cereal set in a funny way like you are looking at the menus of cocktail. I had rainbow blahblah.., just love it! But, the lighting needs to be improved in basement, and the price is far away from an economy level. Can you imagine people spent £5 for a bowl of cereal? read more

YES. This place nails it. It is an awesome cereal cafe, everything you hope it will be it actually is. Basically, you can do whatever you want. They have about one hundred cereals, mostly American and British, but several from around the world. They have around 20 types of milk and non-dairy alternatives. And they also have about 25 toppings. Pick any and all cereals you want, pick your size, choose a milk type, and then add your toppings. Yes, you can mix and match cereals in one bowl. Or not. Up to you. Too overwhelmed by the infinite possibilities to pick? Then just choose one from their cereal cocktails. These are their suggestions of various combinations to try. Tried the "trife up your life" - rice krispies with jelly, whipped cream, fresh strawberries, hundreds and thousands served with custard milk. Oddly enough, it worked and wasn't too sweet. Even refreshing in a way! And the custard milk is definitely unique - it's like sweetened milk. In case that wasn't enough, they have all kinds of retro sodas, although I was sad they no longer have Tab. Was totally looking forward to that. Every flavor of poptart and if you want nothing sweet or sugary, then you can even just grab toast with any spread. Everyone's friendly. Totally fun vibe. Lots of old shows playing on the ancient tubes downstairs. When we were there, it was Clarissa Explains It All. Decorated with all the 80s and 90s paraphernalia. Prices are totally right. Love this place. Will be back! read more
