Bada Bing! Located off Clarkenwell road, Bada-bing! is an nice little cafe.

Bit of a disappointment the cock tavern today as 4 out of our group didn’t get breakfast at all after 45m wait. Still the old Cock Tavern is a classic and was busting with life at 8am in the morning on Friday 30th.

The breakfast club met today at PJ’s Cantina. Seems like this place is getting better and better since they re-opened 6 months ago. Excellent fast service, great breakfast, and all for £4.50 including coffee or tea!
