The Old Station Yard Cafe

The Old Station Yard Cafe Wood Street's best kept secret 🤫
Homemade Breakfasts, Lunch, Afternoon Teas, small scale, Family and Party Catering. NO DMS PLEASE!

EMAIL [email protected] The Old Station Yard Café is a traditional café offering decent, satisfying food at reasonable prices. We use good quality name brands like Heinz ketchup, and our bacon and sausages are from the East London Sausage Co, so they are meaty and tasty, and the animals have good lives too. We cater for everyone in our community, from roofers and builders at 6am to office workers to Mums and toddlers. Our home cooked specials and baked goods change daily, so let us know your favourites.

I've never been a big coffee drinker, therefore we decided to make the café a haven for others who aren't coffee enthusiasts.

Although our drinks menu offers plenty of unique and unusual teas, it also offers barley cup: a coffee substitute that's very beloved in Italy, and how I would often start the day as a child.

Barley cup, as the name suggests, is a cereal drink made from barley, rye, and chicory (and is even a source of fibre!). No caffeine, no jitters, no dehydration or irritation and yet you can enjoy it just like you would your morning coffee! With or without milk and sugar, alongside your breakfast, sweet treat, or just on its own 😌

I personally love its earthy aroma and the light, creamy layer of foam that forms as soon as it's made. I'm biased of course but i would choose it over coffee any day of the week!

So many new faces recently!

We've been loving meeting the folks that have ventured out onto Wood Street to come and support us... we're not easy to find! But we do our best to make it worth the effort with cosy decor, calming music, and hearty meals✨️

People who've lived in the area for decades haven't even found us yet, so we're genuinely so impressed when people who have only just moved here immediately find us 👏🏽👏🏽

However, we don't mind being hidden away from the masses. It means we can always be a refuge for those who are looking for a little peace and quiet, away from all the noise and the chaos 😌

Seeing you guys come back week after week and hearing how much you love being in our beloved café makes all the 4am starts, the 3am finishes, the working flat out for 18 hours straight, rushing to make several different orders at once and fighting to stay open in these tough times all the more worth it 💙

You guys really are the best 🫂
