"There was a stage during one of the now buried periods of ‘lockdown’ when Pavilion provided hope, comfort, and a fish stew that transformed a Victoria Park bench into something quite reassuring for us. The east London bakery is a favourite for good reason. Bread and coffee from their Broadway Market bakery are essential, while their lake-side cafe in Victoria Park serves delicious homemade soups, sandwiches, and comforting Sri Lankan breakfast plates every day." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
