Coffee Shops - Easter Opening Times

Woo! A four-day weekend! However, if you, like me, cut down on coffee during Lent, and have no more coffee beans in the house, then you might be in search of an independent coffee shop or two over the Easter break. I've listed a few of those in Central and East London (i.e. the best bits) which have given out details of their opening times here for your benefit. I've had to make an educated guess for some of them as they simply said they'd be open their usual hours, but I somehow doubt they'd be opening at 7.30 am on Friday, so have erred on the side of caution. I have, however, indicated it in parentheses if I didn't have the exact details. I take no responsibility for being wrong.

Thanks, Steve! London's got way too many coffee shops so I ended up focusing on the areas where I'd most likely be going, and even that resulted in over 25+ being listed. Phew!
