Mercer & Co in Islington

Ignore all the reviews that don’t rave about this little place. I’ve been eating salt beef on rye for years at Selfridges and the one here was streets ahead. And all for less than £10. You won’t be disappointed!

Spot on good coffee and friendly staff with fast service, love there muffins with rose petals and carrot cake. Recommend.

Bueno, la primera vez aquí, esperando a que reparen mi bicicleta. No se ofrece información de seguimiento y rastreo. Servicio aburrido, personal cansado. Pedí un bagel, cuando llegó, ¡servido en una bolsa de papel marrón con dos servilletas! ! ! ! Tomé dos veces el bagel, verifiqué el precio en la pizarra, era un mini bagel 4. 50, queso medio derretido! Mercado de la capilla. . . no demasiado caro. Botella de agua, sin vaso. No me sorprende que fuera tan tranquilo. Lástima, ya que sería una buena alternativa a las patatas fritas y fry caff. No volveré.

Paré aquí, ya que está en mi mercado local. Tenía que tener otro bagel de carne salada. Es el mejor de la ciudad, lleno de carne de res, mostaza y encurtidos.

..valido per un veloce pasto a base di pastrami in corso di visite nel quartiere di Angel..poco fuori dal centro commerciale famoso per le grandi ali in acciaio poste all’ingresso..buona la carne forse tagliata troppo spessa..costo in linea..

Small friendly cafe, excellent selection of food, clean, and friendly staff. Convenient location in an area surrounded by fast food outlets is a pleasant surprise.

This is a really nice cafe serving up lovely sandwiches and salads and very good fresh juices. I tried the watermelon and mint smoothie today and it was fab - so refreshing. I’m not really in to salt beef but I have friends who rave about it. Service is friendly.

Great new addition to the Islington / Angel Cafe scene! Fantastic Salt Beef sandwich, just balanced right with gherkins & mustard. Its an interesting space that hosts Art Exhibitions downstairs too + they do make a great coffee! Been back a few times already!!

Tried this place for the first time today as they do lunch boxes for a bit over £5. I had the combo box which was veggie/beans chilli and two salads and overall I was really impressed. Much better than I was expecting it to be, particularly the bean chilli. I will definitely be back to try out the tasty looking (if slightly expensive) Reubens sandwich they also sell there.

Dropped in for lunch and so glad we did I went for the lunch box deal Hot mac and cheese with two salads that were all on display on the counter Coleslaw and beetroot spinach and mozzarella were my choice Huge portion super tasty would thoroughly recommend all for £5.50 Has a few seats at table and window seating if you wish to eat in Very friendly staff if I’m honest all the food looked great from the toasty sandwiches To the Oreo cheesecake Would defo look again if in the area .

Found this cute cafe on Chapel Market by chance. Although service was a bit slow, the food was amazing! Good coffee too. The owner was really friendly and helpful and this place really is worth a visit for the outstanding Reuben salt beef sandwich: loads of delicious salt beef, Sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, pickle, mustard all served in toasted caraway seed bread. Heaven 👌 We also had the salted caramel brownie - again, truly delicious. Highly recommend this place!

Noticed this place early one morning before it was even open and decided to return for lunch as I was working nearby for the day. Glad I returned. Excellent salt beef sandwich and really enjoyed. Good quality and very tasty. Tempted to go back tomorrow and try something new. Highly recommended.

Popped in for late lunch with my mum. It was small and snug but notm too busy. Really good salt beef toasted bagel, beef was tender and plentiful and i liked that I could add my own appropriate amount of sauerkraut. Good value for the bagel, less so a small rice and bean salad. Will definitely be back for the salt beef next time I'm up in the angel.

I've been here recently with a friend for breakfast and the atmosphere was really good. Jamie looked after us and he made us feel like home. Definitely recommend!

Have been to Mercer and co several times. Service is always a little haphazard / slow, but coffee ok and breakfast food that I have had also fine. Until today. Today they served me THE most unpleasant croissant (almond apparently) I have ever tasted. Bizarrely soggy to such an extent it tasted like it had been dunked in water. I returned it after one bite, only to be told it was “fresh this morning”. No alternative offered nor any refund. Poor.

Great cafe in the heart of Chapel Market. Looks sleek outside and this is carried through in the decor and seating once you step inside. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the prices were perfectly reasonable for a lunch! I'd thourghly recommend the sweet potato, best I've ever had. The vegetable chilli was delicious too. £7.50 for a two item hot lunch box and a latte. Can't be bad.

In the beginning when I wanted to order I was disappointed that there were no scrambled eggs on the menu, but the bagel with capers and salmon was exquisit, as well as the coffee and the place at the window to relax before going into our busy morning. We can highly recommend it!

Bumped into this sweet little cafe on Tuesday and surprised me. It was a busy morning with only one staff working, but everything was well managed. The shop was tidy and clean, the staff was kind, patient, joyful and served every customer with a welcoming...

A very welcome stop for some refreshments which included very good smoothies and some very tasty ricotta canelloni with spinach. They do specialise in some nice foods and seem a little understaffed. Excellent drinks as well.

Went at lunch time on Sunday. Only 2 people behind the counter, clearly struggling with the number of customers. The menu is very limited, however it is a struggle to get something from the menu that is actually available. Ordered eggs, bacon, avocado on toast....

Great place to hang out. Food looks good and delicious! Service is friendly. Heard that their pastrami sandwiches are good. Prices are definitely cheaper than city centre.
