E Pellicci has been something of an institution in the East End for over 100 years. Perhaps we are biased, it is our local after all, but we think it's probably the best caf in London. They've just reopened after their customary August family holiday in Italy, and we're hankering for a fry up.
The late, great Nevio Pellicci serving up a lovely cuppa.
Serving up proper caf fayre like a full English, gigantic omelettes, and hand cut chips, the place is always heaving with locals refuelling, passing the time of day and chatting about the football. There's also a big selection of Italian faves; the canneloni is good choice, and if you have the appetite for it you can order it with chips. Lovely. Say hello to Nev junior from us.
