the one really good thing about aquila, apart from being close to my accommodation, is the 10% student discount they offer on all items, without a minimum price. I love their sandwiches and the red velvet is really amazing. it can add a little more vegetarian options to its menu (without thunfish.) otherwise I would recommend this place to all!

Exactly what you want in a Cafe. Great food, cheap and lovely staff

This cafe is amazing. Great service, great food, very friendly and you not find a better cup or tea in London. What I imagine a typical, friendly East End cafe to be. Will definitely visit next time I am in London.

Nestled conveniently near accommodations, Aquila is quickly becoming a favorite among locals and visitors alike. This charming cafe stands out with a generous 10% student discount and an enticing menu that features impressive sandwiches and a delightful red velvet treat. Diners rave about the prompt and polite service, with hearty breakfast options leaving them satisfied. Despite the bustling atmosphere, the food consistently arrives hot and delicious. With friendly staff and a cozy ambiance, Aquila perfectly embodies the spirit of a classic East End cafe, making it a must-visit destination for anyone in the area.

I recently dined at a restaurant in Sudbury, Suffolk and was incredibly impressed with the food. As a Head Chef myself, I can confidently say that the dishes were amazing. Despite being very busy, the staff still managed to make me feel very welcome.
