    We booked a table for 4 at 11am, then changed the time to 11.30am and then turned up with 5…read morepeople... but the delightful people here were so accommodating and even found us a great table in the conservatory. We were here for the breakfast and three of us ordered off the menu, and two of us just had to be fussy and order various items individually. They catered to every wish! The coffee was fantastic and they even had skimmed milk (YEY!) I had the English breakfast with poached eggs, and apart from some hollandaise sauce that appeared on my eggs (I don't like hollandaise sauce!) it was all very yummy. The mushrooms were cooked with rosemary and the cumberland sausage was delicious. I was not keen on the bacon, but that's probably because it was smoked and I'm not a fan of food tasting like sweet smoke. My fellow breakfastarians between them tried the Eggs Special Royal (to celebrate our new princess!) which was apparently delicious, but came with cold avocado under the egg, which made the temperature of the whole dish a little odd. There were no other complaints though and we all agreed to go back very soon. Lovely place!

    I had one of the best meal experiences in London here. To start, very friendly staff directed me to…read morethe lovely enclosed garden in the back. I asked to wait 15 minutes for the regular menu to start and the staff happily let me sit, reading a book and offering a jug of water. At noon, I ordered a small asparagus and goat cheese tartine. Man, what a DELICIOUS dish. Tons of rich goat cheese smeared on a large slice of grain bread. Shaved parm chunks with diced green peppers as well. I got the dish sans egg. A small green salad with a light dressing accompanies it. Overall a salty, rich plate of goodness for 4.50 quid. The waitresses were constantly in the garden so it was always easy to get their attention for drink top-ups and such. They all had smiles on their faces and were quite kind. This pleasant attitude is so rare in London, I had to tip well! Well done Gantry!

    As far as my middle-class aspirations go, this place is great. The food is very tasty, and makes a…read morenice change from the usual sausage butty grease-fest you sometimes get elsewhere. You can tell that it's posher than a regular cafe, because they put tomato and rocket on the sausage and bacon sandwiches. When I was growing up, the only rocket I'd heard of took people to the moon! It's not just the sausage butties that are posh, there is a good selection of pork pies, scotch eggs and sandwiches. And the cakes! Wow, the cakes are great. There are the usual suspects; carrot cake and red velvet, some amazing caramel shortbread and there are even some gluten-free treats. There are two reasons this little hidden gem doesn't get 5 stars. Firstly, it's not always the speediest service. This can be quite an issue if you are trying to grab breakfast before running for a train. Like with a lot of places, It's particularly bad when it's busy. The second reason it's only 4 stars is the price. I know, you get what you pay for, and I do like it's aspirational middle-class elite-ness. But I picked up a sausage and bacon sandwich, an iced tea, some 'breakfast pudding' (wonderful squidgy caramel shortbread), and an extra sandwich for later (whatever, I'm a big guy) and it cost me over a tenner! I guess the main problem I have is my champagne taste, but lime & soda budget.

    I popped into here- the Church Road location- after a disappointing salad at The White Hart across…read morethe street. I got a takeaway box of the freekah, roasted pepper, courgettes and blueberries (I think) with onion mixed with the cauliflower, honey-roasted sweet potatoes and bulgar wheat, as well as hummus and tzatziki, for 5.50 quid. While I think that's pricey, the medium-sized box is filled to the brim so I got at least two meals out of it! The flavours are great: the honey is not too overpowering on the sweet potatoes and the freekah is mildly nutty. Job well done!

    You know when you go to a really, really fun Christmas party... beer pong, mulled wine, bubbles and…read morefestively infused vodka drinks all seem like a good idea. But then you wake up the following morning with a pounding head and a resolution to never drink again... Well, my friends and I had one of those nights... and woke up a bit worse for wear on Sunday. However Pedler managed to save us. Pedler Brunch joy: - The boys tried the massive breakfast which included everything (bacon, beans, eggs, little gin sausage, mushroom and amazing maple-butter toast.) It was so huge that Marc lets me try some...I have to admit the maple butter toast was the highlight for me, but the sausage was gorgeous too.) - My friend tried the beans on toast (they looked amaaazing) - I tried duck on rosti with perfect poached eggs. Every single bite was looovely. We were sufficiently full of energy to contemplate heading into central London to finish off our Christmas shopping. So, thank you Pedler!! *Apparently they also have amazing gin cocktails as their sister company is little bird gin...but I couldn't even contemplate alcohol on Sunday morning.

    My tip said: "great Cocktails for £6!? We must be in Peckham..." -- and yes, we were…read more Having never ventured down to Peckham previously, we had no idea what to expect. After departing the overground at Peckham Rye and being thrust into an absolutely cacophony of sound, sights and people on Rye Road -- I had no idea where this little Pedler gem might be hiding. Is it in this fish market? What about piled up behind these bushels of yuca? Are those pigs hooves? Chicken heads? Ears of some unknown animal? Honestly, if you want to feel transported to another world, pop off the train at Peckham and go for a nosy. Regardless we finally found our way to Pedlar to meet some dear friends. They'd just had a new baby, we had our toddler in tow and we were all excited to catch up and enjoy a meal together. Until I saw Pedlar and its quaint and tiny little space jammed to the gills on a Sunday afternoon. "Oh no" I thought, we are going to have to go eat somewhere else. There is NO way we are getting in here with these babies without crushing someone, them, or being shamed on to the street by hipsters. (I like hipsters by the way, so this is not meant to be offensive, I probably shamed a parent or too in my youth as well!). But I shan't have worried! We DID have a booking (kudos to our friend) and the day was saved. The buggies did need to be broken down and stored downstairs -- which would have been fine had I not timed this entire operation perfectly down to the minute to have mine sleeping through brunch -- only to be awoken upon the breakdown process. Sigh, so Peppa Pig and the Pedlar, that's how he did his brunch (don't judge me! I needed this!). Anyway, tl:dr the guys were really accommodating despite not being terribly child-friendly, and I really appreciated that immensely. We then took up the beautiful booth with plenty of room for everyone, ordered a round of cocktails (the Bloody Mary and Gin &Tonic were gorgeous ways to start), a smattering of Sunday roasts and pickles and were on our merry way to an absolutely excellent meal. Beef, lamb, puddings, cocktails, more wine, it was all on point and truly enjoyable. The place was stuffed each and every moment we were there, but we were never rushed and thus kept ordering and enjoying and finally once Peppa was no longer able to hold my son's attention we departed full and happy and full of Sunday sweetness. I won't be taking my child back here for my own sake of enjoyment, but I'd love to come back with friends or on a date. It's got a great, cozy vibe with well curated menu and drinks, friendly staff and they are clearly doing many thing right over here. £160 split by 2 couples seemed well priced as well -- where in Central London do you ever get the pleasure of a £6 cocktail? Nowhere, so best travel down here and check it out. *service is not included in the bill, so consider adding some if applicable. *MAKE A BOOKING.
