Coffee
Break.
Exmouth Coffee Company Whitechapel E1 7QX
Walking on the busy west side of Whitechapel High St,
right between KFC and the old beautiful Whitechapel Art Gallery,
there is a little cafe glowing in its warmest light
in this dark winter afternoon.
It melts every freezing soul who passes by...
Well, at least mine.
Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop by Landon Pigg
This is my second visit to the Exmouth Coffee Company, an independent coffee shop in East London. The shop is only a few minutes walk from home and most importantly it opens until 8p.m everyday, good for me to hop out for a good coffee before supper or to spend long hours working on my laptop. Being so popular at one of the busiest corner in London also means lots of noises and it is, indeed, not easy to ignore the people who are constantly coming in and out, especially when the staffs serving food from the kitchen at the far back of their long rectangular shop floor... Though, it feels more lively when there is always something going on.
They have typical cafe menu such as panini, sandwiches, patisseries and of course, a range of roasted coffee. Food are delicious, very homy and freshly made. So far I have tried their orange macaroon, vegetable tart with goat cheese and cappuccino, my favourite of all time. Their prices are also reasonable too considering their location. For one standard coffee it is less than £2 to take out. Although nothing too surprising there to be honest, yet what a cosy place it is with smily lovely staffs. The interior is pretty much of typical Brick Lane style with a touch of old English glamour where the vintage looking chandeliers highlight the entire shop in which it neutralises their cool tool industrial brick walls.
So, I was having my coffee there enjoying the very last bit of my free flexible times before I begin working on Thursday. YES ! I got a job! Temporary though. This is a Christmas sales assistant position for Massimo Dutti. A very tough choice frankly, as they require complete flexibility. For once I am also offered for a very good intern opportunity at the same time. I am sure I can figure it out at some point. After almost three weeks being so laid back this is time for some hard work!
