Cafe 1001 review for ViewLondon




"I had a moment's trepidation on entering when I thought that this was going to be an achingly trendy place for desperately trendy people. It turned out to be a very chilled out venue. I went there in the afternoon for a Little Episodes event and it was perfect for this as it was large enough to be open and relaxed, yet intimate. People were reading, watching the bands, clicking on laptops, enjoying beers and coffees and juices. Comfy chairs and sofas. Tables. Unobtrusive decor. A library (Book Orphanage) for those who want to chill out and read.

I thought the drinks were a bit pricey, but it is London. I got over it.

The staff were helpful and friendly.

In the afternoon and early evening at least, this is a cool place to do your own thing and be your own person, with or without a book."
