About us

Two Best Friends On A Journey

Drury 188-189 began in 2016 as the passion project of two best friends from East London – Ali and Cemal who quit their 9-5 jobs in pursuit of creating a brand new concept in the independent cafe scene in London. Tired of corporate life, they wanted to create a cafe that had no wi-fi and encouraged people to relax with a great book or simply keep each other company and create new friendships. Eight years on, Drury is now one of the most beloved cafes in the city which reflects their commitment and serves as a testament of what can be achieved when you have an amazing team and a vision.  Today, Drury 188-189 is the highest-rated cafe in London thanks to our amazing customers and their kind reviews throughout the years.
