Euphorium Highbury: Reviews & Ratings
Stumbled across this neighborhood gem by accident.. was on my way to Worker’s Cafe (another great local brekkie hole in the wall two mins down).. decided to pop in.. Pleasantly surprised! Got the Euphorium Veggie brunch plate.. baked beans, halloumi on halloumi!, substituted the tomato for spinach, sourdough, scrambled eggs and vege sausages! With piping hot coffee Didn’t have the highest expectations but giving this place a 5 for surpassing initial expectations, the halloumi being superrr fresh, and for the outstanding service Will likely be back :)
I have never had a more perfect banana bread. People here are so nice and give the best recommendations.
Amazing service! We went for a coffee and a quick brunch. One Sunday morning and we really like the place, the sandwiches and the hot drinks. The service was fast and polite ( I am wondering why people mentioned about rudeness) the staff was too busy as there was quite long queue with take aways and sit in people too but it seems that everyone knows what they have to do and the team communication is very good. The only bad comment is for the toilet, was one for everyone and It was a bit messy but this happens during rush hours very often. It would be helpful if there was one more toilet.
I love it here, the staff actually treat you like a regular and are warm and welcoming, the service is quick with a smile the food and coffee are great, I recommend the porridge ! But everything is good to be fair, the seating is plentiful and comfortable. They are Super dog friendly if your dog is well behaved.... the manager is a lovely woman who is kind and helpful to all including the local homeless folk who she treats with dignity and respect great vibe, great food and reasonable prices
This, for me, is the best coffee shop on Upper Street. It is bright, spacious and the staff are diverse, friendly and welcoming. Most of the other places on Upper Street do not have all of this together hence my review.
At last, a cafe that knows how to make tea, and that isn't too noisy! They have a proper hot water dispenser rather than using the coffee machine for tea, the teabags are strong enough, and there is a little jug for the milk so you can choose how much you take. The music is unobtrusive and on a sunny Sunday afternoon it was relatively empty.
Absolutely delicious brie, bacon and caramelised onion toastie. Very good value and nice vibe in cafe. Carrot cake was also delicious!
Well presented and clean cafe. I went in at 13.00hrs Sunday so wasnt busy with plenty of free seats. Also noted plenty of plugs for those remote workers. The choice at the counter was super compared to standard bland international coffee brands which seem to copy each other. I had a sweet potato kale role which was presented on a plate with salad. Highly recommend this cafe for their innovation and being different

As a food reviewer for Res Menu, I had the pleasure of exploring what Euphorium Highbury has to offer, and let me tell you, it does not disappoint. The café boasts a remarkable selection of dishes that cater to various tastes, including their standout Euphorium Veggie brunch plate. Customers rave about the freshness of the ingredients—especially the halloumi, which is a standout feature. It’s paired with baked beans, scrambled eggs, and vegan sausages, all served on a warm slice of sourdough. One patron, Ashish Aggarwal, was particularly surprised by how this dish surpassed his expectations, further complimenting the delightful service.

The establishment is bright and spacious, providing comfortable seating that invites patrons to linger over their food and drinks. As noted by Paul Addae, Euphorium has managed to stand out amongst other Upper Street locales due to its blend of diversity and warmth in service.
However, it’s worth mentioning the challenges during peak hours, such as limited toilet facilities, which some visitors have pointed out. Yet, this minor inconvenience does little to dampen the overall experience, as the team's efficiency shines through even in busy moments.
In my visits, I've found Euphorium Highbury not just a place to eat but a community hub where everyone is treated with respect and kindness, including local patrons who may need a helping hand. This ethos, shared by the lovely management, adds to the café's charm and vibe.
