Bruce Springsteen’s music blaring out drew me in .

My family and their’s found ourselves dancing to him in Hyde Park a couple of years ago.

The new delight is the filet steak which is as good as anything you’d be paying twice as much for – elsewhere – and you get chips and an egg thrown in!

In the 1980s really loved breakfast at Beppes after a night shift in Bart’s A&E directly across the road. Great to see it’s still there and feels totally unchanged

I first went to Beppes in 1990 and have been going back as and when I go into London. I called in just today and the bacon sandwiches are as good now as they have always been. A traditional oasis which survived the war, covid and proudly defying the modern buildings cropping up around it.

Is there a next generation at the cafe?

Wonderful memories of getting breakfast or lunch at Beppe’s whilst working as a nurse at Barts for 17 years!!! So happy to see it is still thriving!!

I often went to Beppe’s after a stressful shift or night shift to refresh and unwind with a bit of normality. It was always a cheerful welcoming refuge with plenty of good treats on offer. The clientele were so diverse: staff from Barts hospital, workers from Spitalfields market and the surrounding offices, taxi drivers and the stray tourist.

Places like Beppe’s are becoming so hard to find in Britain now. Everything is falling to chains which is sad. Cafés like this are welcoming and serve great food, not everyone wants fancy expensive coffees. I admire the hardworking families who run them despite the difficult economic times we live in and am grateful for these places when I’m on a visit home. Perhaps I’ll make it to Beppe’s one day and pin a Swiss banknote on the board.

Always had to call into Beppes for breakfast aster a night shift at Barts then back to bed at Queen Mary’s Nurses Home. Always slept well after their breakfast or was it the drink in the pub – Fox and Anchor?

Thank you for this lovely vignette – if I ever make it back to London, I must go there. On a separate note, Georgia met the true definition of “a handsome woman” – quite striking.
