Shabby chic and more-organic-than-thou smugness are not hard to find in the area around the Truman brewery, spiritual home of the trendy twenty-something clone, but few places pull it off with quite so much flair as this bustling cafe and pizza joint. The fabulous breakfasts are probably the highlight, but the imaginative pizzas are also excellent, with glowingly fresh ingredients on a light North African-influenced base. Long wooden sharing tables ensure a friendly and bustling atmosphere, and the sensible prices - and general sense of good health - help to attract an entertainingly mixed crowd.
