Polished concrete and brass accents give this bright cafe a classy, industrial vibe, but we'd come here even if the floor was made of mud – the doughnuts are that good, from rhubarb and pomegranate to tiramisu and cinnamon sugar. There's also a small menu (think granola, toasties), but we all know what we're really here for.
