Serving Climpson & Sons coffee, seasonal lunches and a delectable selection of homemade bakes, the warm and wonderful women-led Alba Caffe team provide a weekly changing menu of sweet treats and irresistible savoury morsels.

Open Tuesday to Sunday, the lunch menu includes seasonal salads, ciabatta sandwiches, hearty soups and signature bakes. On weekends, you’ll find an all-day brunch menu. They use only the very best produce: Cacklebean Eggs from the Cotswolds, Estate Dairy milk and yoghurt from Norfolk, free range meat and vegetables from Ted’s Veg in Borough Market.

On Thursday evenings, Alba host a revolving series of chef pop-ups alongside Whitechapel Lates, serving natural wine and Italian-inspired spritzes until 9pm.
