"215 Hackney's manifesto should be “a friendly cafe for people who believe there’s life beyond avocado and sourdough”. And we'll happily go around Stoke Newington canvassing for them. The Middle Eastern spot takes repeat breakfast offenders—bagels, french toast, jammy eggs—and adds a smear of tahini butter here, a chunky baba ganoush there, and liberal sprinkles of black sesame seeds and sumac on every golden yolk. The Jerusalem bagels, baklawa french toast, and Hackney Feast—a fry-up with latkes instead of hash browns—are high points." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
