Mouthwatering new merch.
After meeting Emma at the London Coffee Festival a couple of years back, several of us at Hard Lines have stayed good pals with her.
Her work is based around one of our favourite subjects - food! Emma Cantlay, also known as ‘Mainly Breakfast’, is a Scottish food stylist and illustrator based in London. Her illustrations are bright, playful, and full of character – capturing everything from flaky pastries to empty plates with a sense of warmth and charm.


With a keen eye for the small details that make food special, Emma brings everyday scenes to life with bold colours and expressive line work.
It’s the kind of artwork that makes you really hungry! She was the perfect person to call on to design a t-shirt inspired by one of our most popular dishes. Our chefs have flipped nearly 12,000 pancakes already this year–you lot are clearly fans–so it only felt right to honour our infamous pancakes with a fresh piece of merch.


Whether you're a Canton cafe regular with a passion for pancakes or an enthusiastic admirer from afar, this is a limited-edition piece not to miss. Emma has truly nailed the brief with this mouthwatering t-shirt; it’s impossible not to order pancakes after seeing it. We predict these will sell fast to grab ‘em while they’re hot!
