Syd's coffee stall, Historic coffee stall in Shoreditch, London.
The wooden carriage structure of Syd's Coffee Stall features a serving hatch, internal counter space, and original electrical connections from 1922.
Sydney Tothill established the coffee stall in 1919 using his First World War disability pension, marking the beginning of a century-long family business.
The stall served as a gathering place for local workers, emergency personnel, and residents, offering traditional British refreshments like tea and saveloy sausages.
The Museum of London plans to display the preserved coffee stall at its new Smithfield Market location, opening to visitors in 2024.
The coffee stall remained fixed in its original location when road repairs occurred, leading the council to build kerbs around its permanent position.
