NOW: photographed by Stephe Lindas (thanks Stephe!) on 22/07/02

It's at the northern end of Portobello Road: from Ladbroke Grove tube station, walk north on Ladbroke Grove and turn right onto Cambridge Gardens. Then turn left onto Portobello Road. The Westway should be immediately behind you....the cafe is on the left...

The cafe, and members of Hawkwind, make an appearance in Michael Moorcock's novel "Entropy Tango":

Hawkwind 1973, on the set of "The Final Programme." This was the film of the book of the same name, which was the first in Michael Moorcock's Jerry Cornelius series. In the foreground actor Jon Finch, who played Jerry Cornelius, is on the left, talking to Michael Moorcock on the right.

In the background, from left to right are: DikMik, Bob Calvert, Nik Turner, Stacia's left leg, Simon King, Dave Brock, Del Dettmar and Lemmy.

Apparently Hawkwind appeared in a trailer for the film but their actual appearance ended up on the cutting room floor, except for one scene where they are visible in the background while one of the main characters is talking in the foreground.
