Workers Cafe – Restaurant

Ah, the good old English caf! Upper Street is full of eateries and it’s difficult to know exactly what to go for. But sometimes, it’s worth just going back to basics — a classic fry up, no pretence, good value and a mug of tea. That’s all you need, isn’t it?!
This place does it extremely well and is a good place to go to should you be torn between any of the fanicer establishments nearby. You’ll have to travel up Holloway Road for its nearest rival, so it has got a great location.
The menu is actually pretty varied, so you can get pretty much anything you fancy, from fry ups, to salads and sandwiches to spaghetti and lasagna. It’s not gourmet — but then it doesn’t pretend to be anything than it actually is!

We popped in here at the end of the day, so it was hot chocolate only for me, and I can’t really comment on the menu. The hot chocolate hit the spot anyway!
It was a little more cramped than some, with ‘burger bar’ style fixed tables and benches that you had to wriggle a bit to get into. Nice and friendly though.
Another typical, good, basic local café.
