You can tell by the name Café at 104 that they want to be the type of place where the cast of a New York sitcom would pop by for a coffee. However, it’s difficult as it’s rumoured to be a pain trying to get Jennifer Aniston to visit Barkingside. The Café is lovely enough. Small tables, not too cramped — the people in there tend to be nice and friendly. But it all feels a little too forced, a little too on purpose. The best Café’s are those ones that are just honest, they are what they are — born by accident. Whereas this place turned up a few years back and seemed very exact in what it was trying to be. Namely, a trendy little Café where people go for lunch. I don’t mean to be too much of a grump — it’s actually quite nice. The menu is big and varied, and you’re never left waiting too long. The prices are more than reasonable. It’s fine for locals, but I wouldn’t make the trip especially.
