"For Hackney-based workmates who are looking to avoid entering Broadway Market in hazmat suits, Towpath Café is a lovely and thoroughly idyllic choice. Even on rainy days, the canal-side spot manages to retain a feel good atmosphere that has people smiling and joking into their sausage sandwich, taramasalata and radishes, or grilled cheese with quince jam. It’s only open from Thursday and strictly walk-in, but there are few better places to eat and chill in this part of London." - jake missing
