As long-time readers of my ramblings will know, I have strong opinions about brunch. It is a meal that brings me great joy and, when done well, can be one of life's purest pleasures. I spent three years reviewing some of London's many and varied brunch spots with my lovely Brunch Club gang and, back... Continue Reading →
When we realised that the April gathering of Brunch Club would be our third anniversary of brunching together, we knew we had to book somewhere special. And so, on Sunday 14th April 2019, we headed to Chiltern Firehouse, 1 Chiltern Street, Marylebone, London W1U 7PA where we had booked a table to treat ourselves to... Continue Reading →
We were initially planning on going to the new IKEA in Greenwich for our March Brunch Club outing, but reports of huge queues for food in the cafe left us rethinking our plans. On a whim we decided to head to Canary Wharf and so, on Saturday 16th March 2019, we met up at The... Continue Reading →
The first Brunch Club gathering of 2019 was on Sunday 10th February at Arepa & Co, 254 Paradise Row, London E2 9LE. We hadn't met up in far too long, and the brunch menu here is something quite different, so we were all excited to get together in Bethnal Green and celebrate our move to... Continue Reading →
When we had this Brunch Club gathering on Sunday 25th November 2018, it ended up being a 'mini' version as our beloved Eleanor was sadly unwell and couldn't join us. In the past we have decided not to review places when we don't have all four brunch clubbers in attendance, but we have decided to... Continue Reading →
Our autumn Brunch Club adventures continued on Sunday 28th October 2018 at the City branch of Caravan, 22 Bloomberg Arcade, London EC4N 8AR. This chain of London restaurants had been on our To Do list for a while and we were all very excited about trying some of the fantastic sounding things on their brunch... Continue Reading →
It's been a long time since the last Brunch Club as we were all busy in August, so there was a lot to catch up on this time. Our first post-summer outing took place on Sunday 30th September 2018 at The Good Egg, Ground Floor Kingly Court, Kingly Street, London W1B 5PW and they don't... Continue Reading →
Brunch Club's most recent adventure (I think we've stopped numbering them now, as there have been a lot!) took place on Sunday 22nd July 2018 in hot sunny central London, at Christopher's, 18 Wellington Street, Covent Garden, London WC2E 7DD. After an attempt to plan brunch in Walthamstow with mixed results (not everyone could make... Continue Reading →
Brunch Club's sweet sixteen took place on Saturday 26th May 2018 in Canada Water, at Leadbelly's Bar & Kitchen, Montreal House, Deal Porters Square, London SE16 7AQ. Another high ranking brunch spot on our list of potential options, the brunch menu at Leadbelly's has something for pretty much all tastes and is 98% gluten free... Continue Reading →
Brunch Club gathering number fifteen, on Sunday 15th April 2018, was pretty much our two year anniversary celebration (as we first brunched together on 9th April 2016). Also, we couldn't find a date that worked for everyone in March so it felt like A Very Long Time since the last one. Eleanor recently converted our... Continue Reading →
