set in the lovely and leafy area of clerkenwell, you wouldn't think you were just a tube stop away from king's cross upon walking up to the modern pantry. the beautiful brickwork, flower boxes and pastel paintwork instantly had me captivated. i was hungry, verging on hangry, and i had a busy train to catch in an hour, but just for a little while i was calmed by the friendly tables and chairs, quaint rows of pastries and subtle scent of coffee swirling through the air.
