The portion was really big and filling and it also tasted fresh - not dry. For the veggie lasagne and a can of Coke it came to around £5. A bit prices but hey, it's a one off!

Bittes tries to emulate this, but being in Finchley has to alter itself somewhat to cater for local tastes. Unfortunately it would appear the locals prefer burnt coffee. Everything else about this place is good, and admittedly it's called bites, not sips, but if you're going to have a coffee house you need to get the coffee right. Bites is so close yet so far! Come on guys, you can do better! :)

Sorry. We need some balance here people…read more The staff at this branch are pretty good, to be fair. I got dragged in by a local friend who only seems to like Starbucks. It's been a couple of years since I've given this corporate behemoth a chance so I thought I'd see if they'd improved. They haven't. The coffee sucks, people. It's burnt. It's hideous. It's overpriced. McDonald's does better coffee for half the price. Yes, the staff are friendly and that helps. But I don't want to go to a coffee shop and have to drink water as it's the only thing they do that tastes like it should. Still, at least I don't have to try it again until 2011

They have a great deal where for example you get to choose four items from a list including two toast and tea or coffee all for only 3.25. The bacon is good quality although I would avoid the sausage unless you like the really cheap kind. The tea is always pipping hot. You order at the counter but they come over and give you table service from that point. The service is always friendly. There is a large plasma tv in the corner which usually is showing sky news. There are four large leather sofas at the front of the cafe so if you fancy a relaxing place to grab a quick cuppa, this is far cheaper and more comfortable than most! In my opinion, this place is an undiscovered gem of a cafe.

If you're looking for a cool, smooth, icy coffee drink on a humid London summer's day... don't go…read moreto this Costa. They're perpetually out of ice. Four out of the last five times I tried to get a frozen drink here in summer, they had a "broken ice machine". (Seems to be a problem quite a bit at English coffee shops. Not sure where they're getting their machines, I get iced coffees a lot more often in America and have never in my life been told the ice machine was broken there.) If you're looking for a hot drink to warm you up in winter, well, probably don't go here either. Last time I went, I was the only customer, I ordered two simple drinks, and they still couldn't get them right. I just barely managed to stop the girl from putting milk into the Americano that we'd specifically said we wanted black. Then she wanted to know if I wanted coffee in my white mocha or not (last I checked mocha is always coffee), and proceeded to make me a regular (not white) mocha instead. I'm not someone who would demand a new drink, so I just left, but I'll probably find somewhere else to get my coffee next time.

Excellent food, though not sure why there was tinned corn on the salad - perhaps it is a local specialty of Church End, as the Finchkey Kitchen puts tinned corn on everything too.
