The Counter Cafe

A favourite hidden delight for East Londoners, this hip cafe in a warehouse gallery space is on Fish Island, just 5 minutes walk from the Olympic Stadium. Legendary for its brunch plates, it serves quality coffee, sandwiches, handmade pies and on busier nights of the week tapas in the evening. Seating is eclectic between comfy sofas and table seating with the best being on the terrace showcasing an awesome view across the canal to the stadium. (There is a hugely overpriced fish restaurant close by charging up to £1000 a slot for this kind of view during the Olympic period). Roll up and tuck in. Open Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm, Saturday & Sunday 9am -5pm. Over the Olympic period they will also be open each evening for Tapas from 6.30pm till late.
