Unlike the vast majority of places in London you can get medium roast coffee that has real coffee flavor rather than all dark roast.

They feature the standard espressos and lattes, with some alternative milks, as well as some unique options like iced chocolate and Vietnamese coffee. There are also some small snacks.

Our cafe serves the finest in speciality coffee, with each of our coffees being single origin and scoring 85+ on the cupping table, back at the roastery. Coffees are bought, roasted in small batches, and rotated frequently according to the harvest schedule. Even if you don't drink coffee, there are award-winning loose-leaf teas served in glass teapots alongside freshly baked cakes and scones (with clotted cream!)for a decadent bout of afternoon tea. Dine against a revolving backdrop of the finest urban and contemporary art in what is probably London's only art gallery urban jungle cafe.

While Nude's cafe located on Hanbury Street is only a short walk away, a visit to the roastery itself is well worth it. This hidden gem is far less hectic and is a welcome retreat from the chaos of Brick Lane. Finding it can be difficult, but just stroll through the entrance to 93 Feet East and continue through the beer garden and into the car park out back. Head to the left and you'll see it. The staff inside are pretty wonderful and after a quick chat about what coffee making tools I had at home they helped me pick out the beans best suited to my taste (they had been roasted that morning). A nice touch is that If you don't have a grinder at home they'll happily sort it out for you, plus you get a free coffee with any purchase of beans!

I've heard a lot about Nude over the years. It has a reputation for being a top notch coffee…read moredestination in London. This reputation has probably been further propelled in coffee circles due to its proximity to the annual London Coffee Festival and the amount of people who drop in before, after or during the show. If I'm being honest I was not blown away by the place. I think maybe it had been built up to much in my mind. It was a bit ramshackle and run down in terms of the look, but that's probably the bohemian style they are looking for. The basics are all there though, baristas, fancy espresso machines, roaster equipment, etc. I had a nice enough Americano, once it cooled down, but for me it was served far to hot. Almost nuclear temperature! Sadly this means I can only rate it three stars. If I'm ever in the area again though I will give it a other try.

While I ordered some mint tea, coffee and croissants, the young lady was so attentive and pleasant. I had bought some three cups and she looked all over for a takeaway tray for me however they were out. She even called her mother to see if they were in an area she could not locate. She even offered to help me take the beverages to my flat which was not necessary but definitely appreciated. I wish I had time as I would have definitely sat and read my book to enjoy the aesthetic of it all. Next time I am in town I would be stopping by again!

Milk work is also smooth and perfect on both cappuccinos and lattes. The decor inside is chic with a good amount of seating. On a warm day the entire front opens up which is pleasant.

First, I started with the mango lassi which was so fresh and naturally sweet. I loved the fennel seeds on top for added flavor. Such a great start to the meal. My favorites of the night were the chicken ruby (a must order and crowd pleaser), lamb biryani, and black daal. The chilli chicken was also a super flavorful app to share and the garlic naan was great as well. Everything is nicely flavored and I appreciate how patient and understanding the staff were with the food allergies and restrictions our group had. Definitely a must in London!

The restaurant is much bigger than it looks, with a front patio, a bar, and multiple dining rooms. It was completely packed. After 6 p.m. it's walk-in only, and the hostess gives you a buzzer while you wait. I started with the house chai, which was warm and perfectly spiced. For dinner I ordered the Chicken Ruby, basmati rice, garlic naan, and crispy okra fries. Now I get the hype. The Chicken Ruby was rich, spicy, and packed with flavor, the naan was perfect for soaking up every bit of sauce, and the okra fries were so crunchy I couldn't stop eating them. This place absolutely lived up to its reputation. They also serve breakfast, and there's so much on the menu that I already plan to come back a few more times before I leave London.
