East End (Hoxton, Brick Lane, Spitalfields, Shoreditch)
Café Columbia
London, England, E2 7RG, United Kingdom
Every Sunday morning, historic Columbia Road becomes a colorful, fragrant collage of flower stalls, and in the midst of all the lovely blooms, an equally ambrosial treat awaits: the fresh, blissful bagels of Café Columbia. Only open during flower market hours, this charming family-owned café has been delighting market-goers with delicious fare for over three decades. Behind the quaint green storefront, customers discover just-baked bagels stuffed with unusual, delectable fillings like crayfish and cress, English breakfast and sweet strawberries and cream. Patrons can dine inside the cafe or outside on the sidewalk, surrounded by bright blossoms and joyful street music.
Insider Tip:
As the market fills up, the café queue can become quite long, so visitors who want to beat the crowds should arrive before 10:00 a.m.
