Nestled away in a leafy corner of Bethnal Green, The Common E2 has been supplying East London with perfectly crafted coffee and delicious homemade food since 2014. Our vibrant café has become a community hub, drawing in locals and London explorers alike. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite to eat or a creative spot to feel inspired, The Common E2 invites you to visit our peaceful, plant-filled haven.

We share our space with Commonage Art Gallery and architectural studio Common Ground Workshop. You can read about their practices here.
