Harden's survey result
Summary
For the ultimate Full English, this superbly atmospheric greasy joe in Bethnal Green is justifiably renowned. It’s arguably most notable for its Grade II listed Art Deco interior, but vital to its appeal is the “truly friendly service from the owners” (it has been run by four generations of the Pellicci family since 1900).
Summary
“Unbeatable for a classic full English breakfast” – but perhaps most popular for the accompanying bants – this Bethnal Green café, notable for its Grade II-listed Art Deco interior, has been run by four generations of the Pellicci family since 1900 – Maria, the current boss, has cooked here since 1966.
Summary
“This top-notch Bethnal Green café” is “the place to go for London’s best breakfast” – not just on account of the full English and bacon sarnies, but for the Art Deco wood panelling (Grade-II listed!) and the atmosphere created by four generations of the Pellicci family, who have run it since 1900. “What makes it different is the warm and funny staff”, who draw “a happy mix of locals, tourists and everyone in between”. Top Tip – “don’t ask for anything gluten-free or they might laugh!”
Summary
“Great food and even better banter” is why so many regulars “just have to keep going back” to this Bethnal Green greasy spoon, run by four generations of the Pellicci family since 1900. The unique wood-panelled Art Deco interior narrowly escaped destruction in a fire 20 years ago, and is now Grade II listed.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
