Cafe Mission is a rooftop bar and restaurant located on the third floor of a recently renovated Victorian warehouse. Cafe Mission's vibe is East London cool with exposed brick walls, industrial lighting, and original floorboards. The food? Expect no-nonsense plates at brunch, lunch and dinner with influences from Europe and South Asia, reflecting our vibrant location in Shoreditch between Brick Lane and Liverpool Street station. We champion seasonal produce (the menu changes regularly!), natural wines and classic cocktails that can be enjoyed alfresco overlooking the City skyline, in our restaurant, or in the bar's lounge.
Cafe Mission delivers the best in hospitality and creative cooking in a casual, fun setting.

    What an utterly delightful experience. Beautiful airy but warm welcoming room, charming staff, superb food (we had fish pie and mushroom tacos, the sourdough was awesome too) and incredibly reasonable pricing. I can't wait to come back. Thanks so much!

    Had seen really good reviews, but the restaurant was empty at 7.30 on a Friday. I’m guessing this must be a regular occurrence as the menu was radically pared down compared to the website- and largely seemed like things that could be assembled rather than cooked. It was all fine when both of us hadn’t eaten much all day looking forward to dinner only to find a menu that was more geared to a light lunch, we were pretty disappointed. And it’s just weird to eat in an empty restaurant.
