Gray’s Inn Cafe, 188 Gray’s Inn Road (north of Theobald’s Rd)

Not sure if it’s a sandwich bar, a ‘greasy spoon’ cafe, or an upmarket Starbucks alternative, this has a small sandwich and hot food bar upstairs and (surprisingly) about 9 tables in a modern basement seating area.

The espresso is pretty good too, although again that was unexpected, and the service is so business-like that it is difficult to know what to make of it. A coffee, wrapped in an enigma, surrounded by mystery.

Coffee ***
£1.50
Environment *** (tho faint smell of damp in the basement is unfortunate)
