Other dishes include Peanut Butter Pancakes (£8.50), which layers peanut butter, dark chocolate sauce and peanut butter cups; and the Whisky Maple Syrup Pulled Pork Pancakes (£7.50), a towering stack of sticky, salty, porky, syrupy happiness.

You can get stuck into homemade quinoa pancakes with deep-fried quail, pomegranate, maple syrup and horseradish.

London Bridge pancake house Where The Pancakes Are serves up its vast menu all year round, and offers vegetarian and vegan options on almost everything.

Where The Pancakes Are, 85a Southwark Bridge Road, London, SE1 0NQ Like weddings, puddings and Friday afternoons, pancakes are better with booze.

Get your pancake fix out of the way early at Shane’s On Canalside, which is offering a twist on a traditional Eggs Benedict with a buttermilk and bacon pancake topped with kale, poached egg and hollandaise sauce.

The Book Club, Shoreditch / Brick Lane, London | Party Earth

Review analysis
food  

Better suited for energetic young artists looking to party than for bookworms reading great literature, The Book Club is an adult sized playhouse where patrons are more likely to get hit by errant ping pong balls than to get a paper cut from turning pages of the classics.

An open kitchen and long communal tables give the place a stylish high school cafeteria vibe, complete with white brick walls, campy art, and oval portholes where plate picking diners can peek through and ‘ooh’ and ‘ahhh’ over the combating table tennis matches in the adjoining room.

Groups of barhoppers huddle around the pool tables and pack the disco dance floor in the basement, where DJs keep the nightlife activities in full swing.

Novelty-hungry, beer-in-hand hipsters looking for more than a spin on the dance floor can take advantage of the venue’s other offerings, from life drawing lessons and film screenings to poetry readings and speed dating.

Full of youthful good cheer and fun activities that lead patrons from one room to the next, The Book Club is a hub of playfulness perfect for those who want to indulge their inner child.

Luckily for you, the book club I’m talking about isn’t a book club at all, but rather, a worthy breakfast destination in the heart of Shoreditch.

Housed in a former Victorian warehouse, The Book Club (TBC) serves as a “home from home” for “eating, drinking, and thinking”, with food and coffee on hand to help fuel the minds of both productive professionals and leisure-loving layabouts.

TBC can be found a quick five minute walk away from either Old Street or Shoreditch High Street station, and due to the shortage of parking spaces in the area, public transport is advised.

This youthful spirit has become the very foundation of London’s coffee and breakfast culture, and whilst it’s still very much a part of The Book Club, the spirit here seems to be just a little more grown-up.

With its vast, open space and its semi-academic feel, The Book Club is the embodiment of that same, cool, indie youngster, who now has a couple of grey hairs and a real job.

The Book Club | Shoreditch Cafe Shoreditch’s Book Club is a strange beast.

Here’s how: Dr Jekyll During the week The Book Club poses as a cool-yet-homely hangout for its surrounding Shoreditch creative clientele – offering an airy, stonewalled interior space to sit with your laptop as you create your next masterpiece.

But get ready for the transformation… Mr Hyde At the weekend Dr Jekyll’s wild side rears its promiscuous, dance-crazed, cocktail-fuelled head and throws the hipsters of Shoreditch a right good party.

Run by Mothership, the people behind the hugely successful Queen of Hoxton and the legendary live music venue Hoxton Square Bar Kitchen, shows that The Book Club has some sibling rivalry to contend with.

The Book Club is an all day venue for every taste, crafting masterful cocktails with a good selection of wines and a quite wide range of food.

You can have something as cheap as chips or decide to share a platter; however hungry you are, The Book Club will be provide something suitable.

This two floor venue is host to workshops, talks, cultural showcases, parties, Ping Pong matches, speed dating and some fab new music while you do it.

Regular events range from 'Tweet Box', in which customers can request what music they want to hear and win a chance for a free cocktail, or the chance to immerse yourself in a world of cardboard boxes, scissors and sticky tape and a band playing in the background.

For something a little different, head to The Book Club for something totally out of the ordinary.

The Book Club | Nightlife in Shoreditch, London

Review analysis
food  

It doesn’t sound like a place for an exciting night out, but behind the sedate name is one of the most consistently creative bars in London.

The Book Club is a popular, laid back, lived-in basement bar that originally helped Hoxton earn its hip title, and in intervening years little has changed down in the basement, which remains plain and comfortable.

You could visit for the food: breakfast starts at 8am, when the laptop tappers who work in the area use it for off-the-cuff morning meetings; lunch and dinner are simple but filling and homely, with a small menu including the likes of bar snacks, nachos and sharing platters (worth a punt).

Or – and this is what sets Book Club apart – you could visit for the packed timetable of events, which includes bands, DJs, lunchtime discos, film dance-a-longs, alternative dating nights, ping-pong tournaments, informative talks, life drawing and classic video game nights.

The young and relaxed crowd that pack into the spacious artwork-dotted space and its atmospheric basement are here for a bit of everything.
