Before the crowds get to Spitalfields on a Sunday morning, St. John Bread and Wine is breakfasting heaven. The café has the same no-nonsense aesthetic as its Smithfields mothership – a sparse industrial interior with bare wooden tables and bistro chairs, and the menu is just as trad with Old Spot bacon sandwiches, porridge and prunes and Lowestoft kippers. Lunch and supper menus are similarly old school and you can even take some of the restaurant’s fantastic bread or Eccles cakes home with you.
