An independent, Antipodean-style cafe, Friends Of Ours is just around the corner from Hoxton Square. Seven days a week, they serve up a menu full of awesome breakfast dishes and brunches, as well as speciality espresso and pourover coffee, loose leaf teas and a range of fresh pressed juices.

The first-time business venture of two friends who met working in the City, they’ve put their shared passion for food, coffee and hospitality to great use. The cafe’s quirks and menu are a kudos to research trips around the world, resulting in stunning, colourful dishes that aren’t anything short of Instagram-worthy.

To top it off, we love their simple yet killer philosophy: source the best products, treat them nicely and serve them with respect and a smile.
