Cafe and bakery in [[Locale Camberwell|Camberwell]].  It [https://twitter.com/Flour2people/status/1139578735865323521 opened] in June 2019.  It does breakfast/brunch during the day, and pizza in the evenings.

Entry is into a seating area filled with large mismatched wooden tables, flanked by school-style tube-framed chairs to seat around 30 people.  Beyond this, a pewter-topped service counter separates off a similarly-sized space dominated by a huge bread oven.  A toaster sits on each table, ready for use in their unlimited "toast your own" offer.

The floor is a mix of brown lino, varnished wooden blocks, and decorative mosaic, while walls are white paint above glazed green tiles.  A column of exposed brick rises to the ceiling above an old fireplace on one wall, echoed by more exposed brick in the back section behind the service counter.

[[Kake]] visited on a Thursday lunchtime in October 2019.  There were four other customers when I arrived around 12:30pm, and several more turned up while I was there.  Peaceful music was playing quietly.

Eggs florentine (&pound;8.50 on the menu but &pound;9.50 on the bill) <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/48852294472/ photo]</small> were advertised as coming on crumpets instead of the usual
muffin.  The crumpets were somewhat muffin-like, though on careful examination they did have the internal channels characteristic of crumpets.  They were good quality, just not as much of a change from the usual as I'd expected.

The eggs were good, with runny yolks and properly set whites, and the spinach was also well-handled &#8212; cooked just right and not gritty at all.  The hollandaise was fairly subdued, to the point where I didn't really notice much about it.

Decaf breakfast tea (&pound;2.50) was oddly musty-smelling and -tasting, but when I reported this they replaced it with a pot of lemon tea, which was fine.

Service was fine, and a carafe of tap water was brought to my table without me having to ask.  A 12.5% service charge was auto-added to the bill, despite the presence of a tip jar by the till.

All the tables except the one in the centre of the room have at least two plug sockets next to them at table-height, and there's free WiFi (ask staff for the password).

Accessibility: No steps to get in, but the toilet is in the basement, down a very narrow and tightly-coiled spiral staircase.
