Still here and still fantastic. Hadn’t been for a while and I’m delighted to see that they still have the same great coffee and great food. Wonderful Bethnal Green institution.

One of the most amazing gluten free sandwiches I've had! The staff is incredibly friendly and even the patrons are cheery. Highly recommended. Seating is communal and limited, but well worth popping in.

All of the toast were very tasty and rich in flavour. Went back 3 times to try all of them. The best one in my opinion is the one with the onion. The only minus is that the dine in places are very limited. View menu

Coffee is good. Staff are terrible. Love to have a chat with each other about life whilst customers stand in the queue staring quizzically at each other with regards to the staffs laxidasical approach to getting things done.

Amazing soup, squash and sage, served with a sourdough cheese toastie, the perfect combo. Fresh ingredients and well cooked, creamy and light. Delicious. Atmosphere is pretty chilled with good working vibe and relaxed chatter, not too noisy. Friendly and polite staff.

This is genuinely my favorite cafe in London. The whole team is absolutely delightful. The coffee is delicious, and the food is thoughtful and so so tasty. Not to mention it’s a lovely plant haven, and the prices are so reasonable compared to most London cafes. Can’t recommend enough truly. View menu

It’s a hidden cozy spot with amazing food and great service. I had the BLT flatbread, which was full of flavor. The barista in a summer-vibe dress who served me was very friendly, asking about my food with a caring attitude that added to the cafe’s charm. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxing. I’ll definitely be back!

Common E2 is a delightful spot for coffee and pastries. The atmosphere is cosy and inviting, making it perfect for a relaxing morning or an afternoon treat. Their selection of pastries is outstanding, offering a variety of freshly baked goods that are both delicious and visually appealing. Whether you’re in the mood for a classic croissant, a decadent danish, or something more unique, Common E2 has you covered. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy high-quality pastries in a charming setting.

Went in this morning…one of these hipster cafes so if you don’t look the part they look at you as if you don’t belong in there. Then overheard one of the staff bad mouthing a customer once he left. Food was standard…had the breakfast burrito and a latte. Then I was rushed off the table by a woman staring at me when someone else was looking for space on a table. The guy said bye and asked ‘other people’ how their food was but didn’t bother saying bye to me. Not that I care but clearly they only give their friendliness to the people who “fit in”. Again if you don’t fit their hipster gentrified aesthetic then service is lacking. Also please don’t talk about customers in front of other customers... View menu
