"Besides being one of London’s best coffee shops, Ozone Coffee Roasters near Old Street roundabout in Shoreditch has a mind-boggling 11 menu sections. Which means 11 opportunities to circle back to what he really meant by “I’m busy on Thursday”. The newer Emma Street spot tops that by adding pizza to the mix, alongside brunch, evening meals, lunchtime soups, salads, and pastas. There’s also an all-day breakfast menu that features eggs benedict on crunchy bubble ‘n’ squeak cakes which is, hands down, one of the best breakfasts you can get in London. Pop in for a breakfast catch-up that seeps into lunch, then dinner, and ends with your friend intervening when you try to order a third cup of cold brew." - heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak
