Café Marrone

Bright and early from 6am — 6.30 on Sundays — this Watney Street spot near Shadwell DLR keeps Whitechapel's early risers fuelled with Lavazza espresso, pastries baked on the premises and sandwiches and panini made fresh in the kitchen. The Italian influence carries through from breakfast to the mid-afternoon close, with free wifi plus both dine-in and takeaway making it as well suited to a lingering morning as a grab-and-go stop.
