In London, the Streets takeover will begin with the brand having a major presence in Norman’s Cafe, a restaurant in Archway that serves all-day breakfast food, as well as sandwiches. As part of London Fashion Week, which runs from 15 to 19 September, a travelling Norman’s food truck will make appearances on The Strand and Duke of York Square. The food establishment shared news of the collaboration with a post on social media on Monday (11 September). Alongside an image of a meal of two fried eggs and chunky chips, on a plate branded with the logo in blue, the straightforward caption reads: ‘2 eggs & chips. @burberry will be taking over Norman’s cafe for London fashion week, Wednesday to Sunday.’ In response, fans of both the brand and the restaurant voiced their approval for the impending linkup. ‘Name a more iconic duo I’ll wait!’ reads one supportive comment, while another Instagram user deemed it ‘the Great British pairing’.
