They do the best flatbreads, freshly made and stuffed with gorgeous things, they sold out of their smoothies but I'm a coffee fan so a large cup of coffee hit the spot.

Pitfield offers 30 minute free WiFi is you ask the cashier for an access voucher. Pitfield features a retail area which serves as a shop selling very particular furniture, plants and decorations. Pitfield's strongest offering is its location and staff. While the service is not stellar it is always delivered with a warm smile and accommodating flair for customers choosing to eat-in. Its location attracts the work lunch crowd as well as locals and tourists in the area. I myself visit before heading into work as it serves as a good alternative to the chain coffee shops in the area. Pitfield's food and beverage offering is both, hit miss and on the expensive side. For example the porridge is dry and resembles concrete mix, while the avocado and toast not bad at all. My experience has varied significantly between times I have eat-in and chosen take-away. While the portions of their salad box is ridiculously small, the most consistent item in their menu is the flatbreads. The coffee is okay and consistent. I would highly recommend it for individuals in the area seeking a large relaxed placed for a meeting or a quick catchup. My suggestion for food and coffee would be to walk further down either Pitfield Street or to Hoxton Square as there are a variety of other places offering better food at better prices within the area.

The service was catastrophic (getting asked for your order 4 times and still getting it wrong isn't usual, getting orange in your smoothie when the one you ordered didn't have any, etc. . The food was good but the value for money wasn't there. It was expensive compared to other places where we ate that were as pricy but delicious. Overall, I think that the manager (at least I think she was was full of good intentions. But the service didn't follow through nor did the food. Hope to see this place get better for the next time I come by!

I shan't be going again.

Been waiting in line for ordering forever and the staff kept ignoring the customers in line and they were just too busy. The portion was large but somehow all four of us felt I'll after consuming the food. Question the food hygiene there.

I feel like the atmosphere is more likely to bring me back than the coffee itself!

I was just disappointed by the tee. it was not better than her average supermarkettee, but significantly more expensive I was not particularly impressed by the staff...more
