About Cappadocia Cafe & Bistro
Cappadocia Cafe & Bistro is a breakfast and lunch cafe on Gray's Inn Road in London, with the kitchen visible from the seating area. Its 129-dish menu spans a full English and a vegan English breakfast, alongside Mediterranean breakfast options. Smoked salmon with scrambled egg on sourdough is also on offer. It's a small, family-run operation, and tables can be in short supply on busy mornings. The cafe takes walk-ins rather than bookings, and outdoor seating is available for those who prefer to eat outside. Orders can also be taken away or delivered for eating off site. It opens daily except Tuesdays, for daytime service only.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the draw, and the full English leads it, with reviewers calling the portion generous and not greasy. The veggie and vegan versions get the same praise, and one vegan diner found it tasty and satisfying. Close behind are the fruity pancakes, the Mediterranean breakfast, and smoked salmon with scrambled egg on sourdough, while the coffee, cappuccino and fresh juices are described as excellent. Others mention a poached egg dish, a burger, a panini and spaghetti at lunch, all called fresh and tasty. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and welcoming, and one reviewer liked seeing the clean, organized kitchen from the dining room. The complaints are small. One reviewer found the poached eggs smaller than hoped, another noted food came out a touch slow when it was busy, and a third found the card machine not working and had to find an ATM. A few mention a short wait for a table on a Sunday morning, and the plates arriving warm is one detail a diner singled out.

“Extensive menu, delicious food, generous portions, and lovely service, within a very short walk from King's Cross & St Pancras st. Their full English and veggie full English are tasty and not greasy at all, their fresh juices and their coffee are excellent too. Will be back!”

“Environment was welcoming and the food was quick and delicious. They don’t have a kids menu but we were able to take away when my kids couldn’t finish their entrees.”
- Stephanie Viane
“We had a delicious lunch here! We tried the English Breakfast, a burger, a panini and a spaghetti – everything was fresh, tasty and full of flavour. The cappuccino was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended if you're in the area!”
