The former Victorian Gentleman’s convenience, in the heart of Fitzrovia, underwent a yearlong renovation to transform the old London toilet into an eclectic coffee shop full of character and quirky features.


Original porcelain urinals, produced by Doulton & Co in 1890, have been plugged, cleaned and converted into an inspired seating line. The old attendant’s office, complete with payment window, has been turned into a little seating area. An old hand drier even sits above modern seating.
