Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Hello Harringay!

                        I'm Matt, I opened But First Coffee only 2 months ago - it's my first business, and the product of a lifelong ambition to have my own cafe. I have worked in hospitality for over 15 years, but never imagined that I would be able to one day have a place to call my own. This makes me hugely proud of my little space - and I've wanted to get it perfect before introducing myself, so apologies for the late hello!

  Located just by Harringay train station on Quernmore Road, N4, we are a little haven away from the hustle and bustle of central Crouch End, Green Lanes and Stroud Green. Open 7 days a week, we have a beautiful selection of gourmet pastries, amazing fresh coffee from Ozone and a lovely space to gently wake up or chat with neighbours before starting the trek to work.

  At weekends we take it down a notch and offer a great brunch menu. We make our own waffles, there's organic soughdough or brioche doorstep toast with preserves or honeycomb, wonderful organic granola with home made berry compote and greek yoghurt, crumpets, hot crossed buns....... you must give it a try!

  As it's only me that works here currently, we are open from 6.30am-1pm weekdays, 9am-1pm weekends -  this will change as we grow and can be in the position to employ staff, open longer and offer more products. 

  I wanted to create a place that I would like to visit - a perfect pitstop with amazing coffee to meet friends, fuel for the day ahead or relax quietly with the papers. Hopefully you to will love it, I hope to see you all soon.

It sounds great Matt. A welcome addition to the area! I look forward to trying it

I love your coffee, and am so pleased to see a cafe near the library. I hope others venture across the tracks to try your coffee! 

We have big love for But First. A welcome addition to the area! 

Didn't know you were there so thanks for letting us know! I'll drop by sometime. well done and good luck! 

Hmm, I'm thinking I can probably stop off on my way home from the Finsbury parkrun... 

What a lovely way to describe what's clearly a labour of love.  Wishing you every success with its progress.  I'll definitely pay a visit one morning.  

I love it here. Matt so welcoming and lovely, coffee's great and it's on my doorstep. AT LAST!!!

Popped in with my daughter after a library vist: the coffee was fantastic and muffins delicious. A lovely welcoming little place.

Best wishes with your business.

Hi Matt, I saw photos of Quernmore Road and the new chairs. 
I gather that you are one of several locals helping to arrange and inspire this impressive project. 

Can you please say who else is involved so they get full credit. Thanks.
