"I celebrated my birthday dinner at Look Left Yugu and couldn’t have picked a better spot! The team were so lovely and really made the evening special. From small details like customised menus to the candle in the matcha tiramisu. The food itself was delicious and the vibe and ambience was incredible. Would highly recommend."

"I think this is the first place I’ve been to with such a wide range of matcha options. The new egg mayo is my current favourite! The interior is beautiful, and you can also enjoy wine and small dishes in the evening, which I highly recommend. Oh and the oden bar every Thursday night… honestly, I don’t know whose idea it was, but it’s so hard to find this kind of vibe in East London. I’ll definitely be coming back more often."

"Clean vibes, great magazine selection, delicious matcha made right. The tables are mostly community style and it’d be a good place to do some work and people-watch. There’s also a couple tables outside and a shop of sorts downstairs (with items spread throughout the main floor as well)"

"Delicious drinks and food with a nice calming ambience! I loved the strawberry matcha latte, strawberry lemonade, sweet mugwort latte & bibimbap rice ball which was delicious and filling. The woman at the counter who served me was very kind and friendly. I also really liked the calming atmosphere where the music wasn’t too loud and I could get some work done. Will definitely be returning!"
