IKEA Cafe, Edmonton

English Breakfast, Ikea Edmonton English Breakfast tea
IKEA EdmontonIt is highly unlikely that you will be on the A406 looking for a cuppa, but having been on an extended tea-break recently, due to moving flat, I have discovered they actually do a very good cuppa at IKEA.

With the bank holiday coming up, you may be doing some home improvements, so this bit of info could save you from a lot of stress.

Trips to IKEA usually start well, but can soon become disorienting. After finding myself sitting in a pretend teenagers bedroom, having lost all track of time, and with no idea how to get out, I have no choice but to take some long deep breaths and try to find a cuppa.

The cafe at Edmonton IKEA looks much like a motorway service station. I only wanted tea, so headed for the drinks counter on the right. This is actually quite pleasant – you can even see a patch of sky to remind you of the world outside.

Tea is Twinings English Breakfast. Naturally it is cheap, and comes with a complimentary sweet biscuit – perfect to top up your blood-sugar and prevent pre-checkout grumpiness.

I hope to find my way out of IKEA soon, and return to world of culture, bookshops and London cuppas. Meanwhile..

FREE TEA ALERT: If you sign-up to be part of the IKEA Family you can enjoy complimentary tea or coffee, which has to be a very good idea.
