Jon Snow loves Andrew’s fried eggs. As do fellow TV presenters Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Tom Bradby, all of whom signed a petition to prevent developers shutting down this classic caff. Inside, it’s all battered chairs, wipe-down tables and photos of Routemaster buses, with a vast wall-to-wall blackboard menu above the counter. Local cabbies and electricians rub shoulders with familiar faces from the nearby ITN building, who are here for the stupendous breakfast fry-ups (including top-notch fried slice), plus burgers, omelettes, sarnies and a host of proper home-cooked lunch dishes – roasts, shepherd’s pie, liver and bacon, stewed steak with veg, chicken Kiev, mixed grills and so on. Andrew’s is occasionally open in the evening, when it can be hired out for pop-ups featuring celeb chefs such as Giorgio Locatelli.
