About Astro Cafe & Brunch
Run by a family of siblings who work the business themselves, Astro Cafe & Brunch is a breakfast and brunch cafe on Bethnal Green Road in London. The menu runs to 85 dishes built around morning eating, from porridge to avocado, egg and chorizo, alongside an American breakfast, and halal options are prepared on request. Portions come out large, and coffee can be made with oat milk. The kitchen sits in full view of the room, so the cooking happens in front of guests rather than behind a wall. Arrivals are greeted at the door and shown to a table, and there can sometimes be a wait while food is prepared to order. Dogs are welcome alongside their owners. The cafe opens daily.

“This place is absolutely exceptional and has impressed me every time I've visited. From the moment you arrive, it's clear that a lot of thought and attention has gone into every aspect of the experience. The food is outstanding, both in terms of quality and presentation. Every dish is beautifully prepared and presented, making the whole dining experience feel that little bit more special. The décor of the shop is also fantastic, creating a welcoming and stylish atmosphere. The outdoor seating area is another great feature, providing a lovely place to sit, relax, and enjoy your food and drinks. Overall, this is a venue that gets everything right—excellent food, beautiful presentation, great surroundings, and a wonderful atmosphere. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality place to eat or relax. 10/10 experience.”

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast and brunch are the clear draw here, with several regulars and first timers alike calling it the reason they return. One visitor who wandered in on impulse was steered toward the American breakfast by a welcoming member of staff and calls it the best they have had, while another singles out shakshuka and eggs royale as tasty enough to want to come back the next day. Coffee comes up repeatedly, including the option of oat milk, and portions are described as generous and good value. Reviewers describe it as a warm, family run place, with the kitchen in full view and everything looking clean and freshly prepared, and several mention being accommodated, including with halal options. The only recurring trade off is timing: one frequent visitor notes that food prep can sometimes involve a wait. A birthday group left happiest of all, having been offered brownies on the house by one of the owners.
