Best coffee in London. Great staff, very helpful and friendly. I am very fussy with coffee and these guys do red brick beans, top notch stuff.
Hand Cafe is an independent neighbourhood cafe, situated on Victory Parade in East Village, next to the Portlands water glades. Sister-cafe to 46b Espresso Hut (Est. 2012, Hackney), Hand expands a focus on well-made, well-sourced food and beverage, that allows the cafe and therefore the customer, to support local and small-scale producers who care about what they make.
Hand cafe's not a Greek cafe, but the food is inspired by the Greek approach to food, taking the values of simplicity, seasonality and good sourcing, into the snack context. The coffee is 'third-wave', and is made by disciplined baristas.
