Our corner of E17
From the first tray out of the oven to the last flat white of the day. Hover or tap each tile to read the story behind it.
Morning light on Orford Road
Our front window catches the sun from seven — the regulars know to grab the corner banquette.
The 7am croissant
Laminated over three days, baked deep golden. Gone by mid-morning, every time.
A tulip, freehand
Every cup poured by hand. Tom teaches the technique on Saturday mornings.
The famous plate
Soft eggs, smashed avo, roast tomatoes and a thick slice of our sourdough.
Counter, fully loaded
Build a box of six to take home. The seasonal special changes every week.
Iced matcha season
Ceremonial-grade Uji matcha, whisked to order. Our most-Instagrammed cup by a mile.
A proper loaf
Our fifteen-year-old starter, a long cold ferment, nothing added. Slow bread, the way it should be.
Two tables on the pavement
Prime people-watching when the sun's out. First come, first served — and dog-friendly.
Cardamom buns, Fridays
A nod to Sefu's years in a Scandi bakery. They sell out before lunch — set an alarm.
Saturday morning skills
Two hours, six people, endless milk. You'll leave pouring hearts — and with a pastry box.
After dark, all yours
Festoon lights, the whole room and a tailored menu. Birthdays, showers and supper clubs welcome.
Why "Marigold"
For the window boxes that line Orford Road each summer. We keep ours blooming all year.
Pictures don't do the smell justice
Come and experience it first-hand. Reserve a table or just follow your nose to Orford Road.
