S & M in this context stands for sausage and mash; this is one of a small chain of London restaurants that specialise in 'Great British Grub' - something of a rarity in a city with every variety of ethnic restaurant imaginable. As part of their ethos they restore cafe premises to their traditional look, and this branch on Essex Road has a delightfully '50s feel - even down to the check tablecloths.
