<![CDATA[Greater London - Camden - Covent Garden - Eating, Drinking and Nightlife - Cafes - Reviews]]> http://www.welovelocal.com Reviews from welovelocal.com en Spreads a little happiness http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/covent-garden/cafes/spreads-wc2n4ld.html#r52790 Working around Leicester Square and Covent Garden means you often struggle to find somewhere to grab lunch that isn't touristy. Some days you just want a good sandwich, a decent jacket potato or egg and chips which isn't going to plunge you into bankruptcy.

And Spreads is exactly that.

Small and cosy inside (oddly furnished with wheel back chairs and tables that might seem more at home in a country pub) and a few tables on the pavement in summer, it's a great place for lunch.

]]> Sat, 16 Aug 2008 12:30:03 BST Great gay salads! http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/covent-garden/cafes/the-box-bar-wc2h9hb.html#r51938 Used to pop in here fairly often when I worked nearby. I'm sure in the evenings it's very lively, but it's generally pretty quiet at lunchtime - you can egenrally get a pretty big group in here without any problems - the salads are great.

]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 11:03:07 BST served an inedible sandwich http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/covent-garden/cafes/coffea-sandwich-coffee-shop-wc2n6nd.html#r50276 The guy working in this place served me just after emptying the cafe's bin. I foolishly assumed he was wearing gloves obviously he wasn't!!! Aafter paying for my sandwich, in an unfortunate case i saw him cleaning the containers by his hands without washing them or anything, it looked disgusting..no hygenic at all..no way I would go there again!!!

]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 12:42:16 BST Absolute rip-off http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/covent-garden/cafes/porkys-pantry-wc2n4hs.html#r49238 Charge £3.10 for an egg & bacon sandwich.... whike the same in a roll costs £2.60 So 2 slices of bread cost 50p more than a roll...? Never gaoing back

Good bye to what was a fantastic breakfast/ lunch + establishment

]]> Thu, 26 Jun 2008 09:44:34 BST Great coffee, food ok http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/covent-garden/cafes/epoca-expresso-bar-wc2n4ea.html#r43682 Haven't eaten here for a while, but they seem to do all from sandwiches, paninis, through to 'the full english'. Coffee is what keeps me coming back, if I can't walk up the road to Monmouth Coffee then epoca is a good second best. Apart from the grumpy girl who makes the stuff, it's very good coffee - made from illy beans which is generally a pretty good sign. give it a go!

So what we craving for today? Can canteen really make anything you need? and toast it? it's just the BEST when you're trapped in your office, a slice of Italy for lunch.. so very very good I had to tell you all about it again!

TEN POINTS!!

The food, value for money and banter is still there - which is a good thing. They offer a great selection of sandwich fillings and have daily specials. The tuna mixes are pretty good but don't think about how many calories you're about to consume.
