A couple of years ago I accidentally spent my birthday watching a film on Netflix called Flakes about a cereal bar in New Orleans. It’s a really weird film, and Zooey Deschanel stars in it, so that explains a whole lot. It may have just been a wacky hipster concept at the time, but now it’s actually happening in real life, pretty close to home.
Alan and Gary Keery – identical twins from Belfast have announced that they are launching the UK’s first ever cereal cafe in London. The ingeniously named Cereal Killer Cafe will open its doors on the 10th December in Brick Lane, Shoreditch and will offer over 100 different cereals from across the world. Their website states:
We are Cereal Killer Cafe, the UKs first speciality Cereal Cafe. We are obsessed with everything cereal. We sell over 100 different types of cereal from around the world, if we can source it, we will sell it. To create the perfect bowl of cereal you can choose from 12 different varieties of milk and 20 different toppings. To give you the real sugar rush feeling you had when you were a kid come and visit us for breakfast, lunch or dinner in our nostalgic cafe displaying hundreds of pieces of memorabilia from the 80s and 90s for you to feast your eyes on.
Their menu is yet to be revealed, but will be available online soon. In the meantime, you can read more about the venture here.
