Bright North Reviews

Lovely new addition to Look Mum No Hands! No workshop here, this one feels upmarket with a mix of concrete, wood & exposed brick interior. Coffee is fantastic & food is great with vegan options.

Daily specials not available until 12:30 despite being on the board. Lukewarm coffee. Nice staff.

Great food, amazing coffee and only 50m from my flat

I love the vibe of this place, great food & coffee - painfully slow wifi :(

Simple, nice, cheap, fast service, free wifi, possibility to leave your bike in the room, in short one of the best places in London to eat ;-)

Travelled far to be turned away due to a group booking. Not the nicest customer service, didn't feel valued at all.

Cheap tasty breakfast, always large portions (also do lunch and nice beer). Friendly staff. Good music. Relaxed atmosphere. Good pub opposite. Difficult to fault!

Cappuccino and sourdough bread (with jam) for breakfast were top notch. Taste and price performance 5/5.

Really good food in a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Plus, the place is baby friendly too!

Lovely. Attentive and friendly staff. A great place to relax and sketch as it's quite spacious inside

The worst customer service ever. Fact.
No table service at all. Lukewarm flat whites, asked for an Americano with warm milk - it came with cold. Asked for one tea they brought us two .. the table next door were scratching around the entire place for a bottle of HP with more than a millimetre of sauce in it ... dirty plates & cups left on the tables. God knows what happens when they get a rush on ie more than the 10 customers that were in there today.....if it does look vaguely busy my advice is to avoid at all costs.

Nice place for a quiet coffee and bite to eat. It's a shame they don't have a workshop though.

Great cafe space to work or chill out - spacious, nice array of snacks and drinks (teas, cold pressed juices, beers etc), chilled out music playlist. Visited on a warm sunny day which made things even nicer.

Had some great breakfast and coffee here, which wasn't too expensive considering only organic and free range is used.

Very expensive. Food is very nice, though. Maccoroni and cheese is very tasty and a fair portion! The set up.of the place isn't contusive to a good atmosphere.

Good food, poor atmosphere/set up.

Great service and food, appreciated being able to bring our bikes in to the cafe. Wasn't quite the same 'cycling' vibe as the Old Street cafe.

The food was delicious but the staff wasn't polite.

Coffee was decent and the place is spacious although there are not many tables for such big place.

Very nice breakfast / brunch food, great coffee. Not usually too crowded

Very good coffee and decent food. Service also good, coffee brought to the table. Atmosphere was friendly, no intrusive music, just some chilled jazz.

Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere - perfect for working with a laptop for an hour or two.

A great little place. Quiter than the other Look mum no hands though equally nice. Good coffee with a relaxed attitude. I have been here for a few events as well and I would thoroughly recommend them.

Tucked away, in one of the old warehouse frontages on Back Church Lane, Whitechapel.

Good selection of coffees and warm and cold food, plus daily specials.

Relaxed and spacious. Competitive prices. Recommended.

Food good!
Coffee good!
Nice relaxed space.
HOWEVER...
Staff often rude / unprofessional - for the second time this week no one says hello or good morning, let alone a thank you after transactions.
Staff members continue private conversations with each other whilst ignoring customers.
This week staff were sat at a table, with the counter unattended, and I had to wait a couple of minutes for someone to acknowledge me and take my order.
I have been coming here since it opened - at first I thought any shortcomings were growing pains, but this place consistently fails at the basics of customer service.

Lovely spot to have a coffee or tea and some breakfast. Excellent sourdough toast at a great price. Roomy interior with free WiFi and great ambiance.

Love this place, great staff who are so friendly and fantastic food!

Best coffee in the area and relaxed atmosphere. Good WiFi and tables also make it a good option if you are looking for somewhere to do a bit of work.

A bit of light in an otherwise pretty shadowy area. She's funny and it doesn't smell like greasy bikes

A solid 5*. Very laid back vibe with loads of open space, friendly staff, good coffee.

Friendly service, good coffee, delicious looking snacks (admittedly I only tried the croissant), clean design and relaxed atmosphere. Best cafe I've found in the area.

Excellent coffee and service. The only downside side in the winter is the draught from the automatic door.

A fantastic place to get a fresh cup of coffee and a fantastic area to do your work/studies.

Lovely place. Coffee is great and the staff are friendly.

Love the vibe in here. Regular for weekend brunches and had a big friends Christmas lunch last year - which they were really accommodating with. Standards can be a little up and down, probably dependent on the chef - e.g. amount of bacon, whether it s crispy or char burnt, if you actually get scrambled eggs or omelette - but never bad and on the whole, very reasonable and good food. Their coffee is delicious and served in brightly coloured cups.

Had a lunch for 15 people last week and it all ran smoothly and great food, very friendly staff awesome space. Very chilled.
