I was staying at an Airbnb nearby and pass by this cute cafe a couple of times before I decide to go in for breakfast. I had the vegetarian breakfast for the champion and a latte. It was absolutely amazing! Everything in this cafe is recyclable and reusable! I just love how they reuse bottles to store sugar and even for their plants! Also the baristas were so kind! Definitely visit this cafe if you are nearby!

Pretty nice breakfast/brunch spot offering a wide array of American classics. I ordered The All…read moreAmerican (16.75 GBP), which was a typical combo of pancakes, bacon, homestyle potatoes, a sausage, and two fried eggs. It was rather plain/ordinary but certainly not bad. I have to say, the pancakes were a bit on the dry side though. Also, the eggs were sunny side up but didn't actually seem fried at all, as they were super soft without any crispiness. In addition, they didn't even add the slightest amount of seasoning on there - at least a few pepper flakes would have been nice (although there was pepper on the table, but still). The homestyle fries were well-cooked with a good crispiness though. The restaurant has a lower level with some seating as well as a larger upper level. It has a sort of old-timey kind of vibe, with wood panels along the walls and ceiling and a little performance stage in the back. It is conveniently located right next to the Canary Wharf tube station. My waitress was average friendliness and was only moderately attentive, as she never checked up on me during my meal. She also waited until I actually got my food to bring me my water. Overall, The Breakfast Club is a solid option for breakfast/brunch in Canary Wharf with pretty much any of the classics that you could want.

My quest for breakfast nearly turned into brunch due to my questionable navigation skills and…read more(shocker) rain. In my defense there are several rivers/canals I could be walking toward. I just kept finding the wrong one, but TBC made it worth the wait. For those seeking "a little more conversation", stop at the bar for the friendly experience you'd expect. Today I headed upstairs to the VIP Section. Unlike my wife who never saw a pancake she wanted to go home with, I like a menu with plenty of pancake choices. And bonus points if not too many are "exotic" such as cake disguised as compote-smothered confectioners-sugar-laced trendy-named items. Just get me some sort of flapjack with or without fruit. Bonus points if you have short and tall (long?) stacks. And double-bonus if you print "flapjack" on the menu. Enough about the pancakes (my wife is saying). She doesn't even like breakfast so don't listen to her (she'd skip if I weren't always dragging her out somewhere for it). Her loss. But just one more pancake point: I got the blueberry short stack. It wasn't epic but it was a solid +6-7. That works, given my earlier frou-frou comments. I couldn't tell and maybe the maple syrup was imported from Canada (eh), but we are spoilt with our Vermont supply. So no points gained/lost there. I didn't get any baked beans (yes because this was breakfast), but my bacon was tasty as were my two Americanos (aka coffees). If I had for some reason wanted pre-noon beans...I'm sure they would have been lovely, along with all the other varied menu choices I didn't have room to sample. Service was fast and efficient, and they endured my lingering into late-morning. By the time I left it had stopped raining. Will wonders never cease.

Pear Tree came up on Yelp and I was sold on their breakfast all day thing they do. I had a soy latte (because caffeine is so necessary after two hours of crappy airplane shuteye), and the salmon avocado sandwich, which I turned into salmon avocado toast. I have to say it was fresh and the service was good and fast, the food was decent, and the restaurant is very cute, just not something to write home about. It's a good casual spot for a quick bite, some coffee, and some pastries.

I love this cafe. So busy and bustling but that is just part of its charm. Stumbled across it on a…read morewalk into Greenwich and although we had to wait 10 minutes for a table it was well worth the wait! Their menu is crazy extensive, I mean seriously, it's huge! Ranging from breakfast options to burgers it has everything you could want and more. It took us a good 15 minutes to take it all in but finally I decided on their special - avocado, poached eggs and spinach on sour dough toast WITH extra bacon and halloumi... Well I have to try as much as possible don't I? The food arrived quickly and the portions are LARGE! You could tell the quality of the food is top notch and everything was cooked to perfection. The avocado especially was creamy and delicious. It was a fantastic meal and I couldn't give this place more credit. If you can have a nosey in the kitchen, it's tiny but chefs within are hard at work and creating just wonderful food! I've only docked one star as I had to ask for my water twice which for just water was slightly frustrating but other than that the service was good and prices very reasonable. Great little cafe and I cannot wait to go back and try more of their menu!

Granted, I might have just come across as a little snarky, whereas I really liked my visit to the London Particular. In fact, I stumbled upon this lovely place purely by accident, as I had to change trains at New Cross. When I walked in, I was immediately "turned on" by the smell of the frittata that was still baking in the oven and I decided to stay for lunch. The frittata emerged from the oven about 15 minutes later and it was served alongside two generous portions of salad...the taste of it all was very good - I especially liked that the frittata had a sweet taste to it! Also from a customer-service point of view, they got it right here at the London Particular: friendly staff and free wifi and a clean bathroom...very nice!

Excellent breakfast spot in Deptford. Ate here a few times, and everything we tried was delicious…read more The atmosphere is very quaint, perfect for a calm start to the day. We had the brunch bowl, both with bacon and halloumi. Both were scrumptious, with perfectlly soft boiled eggs, crispy potatoes, a generous portion of beans, and thick toast. The halloumi was especially good, grilled and perfectly salty. We also tried the housemade granola, which was served with plum and yogurt. It was very good, though I wish there was more yogurt in the yogurt:granola ratio. The pastries are all on display at the front, and we had a few that were both delicious. It's clear they bake these in house. In fact, everything felt like it was right out of Grandma's kitchen, and in the best possible way. A great way to start the day.

From the menu it is clear they do some brunch and lunch items and if you are there late enough I'm sure they must do something around dinner time. They had a selection of alcoholic drinks that I could see so if you fancy something stronger with your brunch or lunch it's possible. The staff were polite and helpful so no problems there. I guess the reason I only went to 3 is down to the soz did the take away cups! I'm all for supporting the little independent it come on guys get some bigger cups in. The cup that I got my latte in was tiny, definitely 3 swallows but it should be some much more. Please get some bigger cups of force me back to the big name brands which provide good size cups for your hot and cold drink, please...

If you love brunch and haven't explored New Cross yet, I…read morehighly recommend it - so many amazing spots to discover and Birdie Num Nums is a great fantastic edition to the brunchin'/lunchin' scene! Birdie Num Nums is a wonderful little cafe, I loved the decor - very shabby chic - and the over all vibe and atmosphere. Sadly, the staff were having a nightmare of a day - their payment machine was down and a few things had gone wrong for them meaning they were seriously pushed back and running behind. The owner however was so apologetic and clearly in distress, I really felt for him and am not allowing this to affect my overall experience. Alex ordered the Birdie Breakfast and I, the poached egg, lime and avocado salad served with toast and hollandaise sauce! The food took longer than it should but as I explained, I understood why. Once arrived it was most definitely worth the wait... Both dishes were fantastic - Alex said his Birdie breakfast was "the best breakfast I've had in london"! And for me every mouthful was a true taste sensation. The avocado salsa was fresh and tangy and when put against the crunch of the toast, harshness of the hollandaise and the softness of the yolk, everything complemented itself perfectly. It was a dream. In total the two meals, a coffee and a can of orange cost just under £20 - I would have paid more for the quality and felt this very reasonable! We'll definitely be back!

I really, really dig this place…read more First of all, the mocha is stunning. They'll make it with soy if you ask. The ambiance is lovely as well. Like apartment listings, what some might call cramped I call cozy. There are potted flowers and lots of knickknacks all around. Even the bathroom is cute. And who can beat a door made from a phone booth? I like being able to see what's going on in the kitchen too - it feels hectic but fun. For food, I've tried the veggie burger, lamb burger, chicken burger (my fave), and chips (always extra-crispy), and seen table-mates get the falafel and the chicken salad. The veggie burger needs something to hold it together better; it kind of became a mess as I ate it, but a yummy mess at that. The burgers really are as big as your face, so if you get chips on the side, it's enough to be a meal for two. I've also had the breakfast fry up, which is definitely enough for two. It came with egg, sausage, bacon, beans, mushroom, tomato, and toast. So deliciously yummy, especially on a cold morning.

It really has a feel of home and I love it's London flourishes such as the telephone box door and Downing Street toilet. The waitress was new and you could tell but she was very friendly and kind which was sweet and endearing. Now to the food and drink, we ordered iced lattes to drink and then I ordered The Power House brunch option and Alex, The Morning Glory breakfast. The iced lattes were delicious, smooth and strong. Just the way you would want them to be. I didn't want mine to end. Now, the food. Alex enjoyed his breakfast, it was basically a good old english fry up and the definite highlight was sausages - they had a nice spice to them. My brunch too was delicious. It was avocado salsa on toast with streaky bacon, poached egg, mushrooms and tomatoes. The avocado was perfect - chunky and creamy with a subtle chilli-ness to it. The bacon was cooked to perfection, crispy and salty goodness. I wasn't a huge fan of the egg as it was slightly overcooked but when mixed with everything else it was a great breakfast. Highly recommend a visit, even if just for the overall atmosphere and friendliness. We'll be back!

Their menu is very straight forward, they offer different types of pot pies with mashed potatoes & gravy. My husband and I dined in here. I got the chicken pot pie and he got the traditional pie. Definitely one of the best pot pies I've had personally! Mashed potatoes were very basic but the gravy was good. It was pretty hearty portion of food. You order at the counter, pay, grab the food, and bring everything to your table. They have a decent amount of seating. It was busy at the time we went but we were able to get everything quickly and find a table. If you're in the area visiting the Maritime Museum or going to the Royal Observatory, I'd recommend making a lunch pit stop here!
