The Brunch Diaries: Hard Rock Cafe

April 20, 2016

Just before I went on holiday I was invited by the Hard Rock Café to pop down and check out their brand new rock n roll brunch. It was an early start as the brunch runs from 10am (*yawn*) til noon every Sunday. The Hard Rock Café might be seen as just another chain but… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Hard Rock Cafe

Yelp Blog School at The Botanist

November 28, 2015

It would have been very easy to have been offended by the invitation from Yelp that appeared in my inbox inviting me to attend Blog School (d’you think my blog needs a bit of work do you?) but then I saw that my blog friend Frankie was one of the speakers and decided that it… Read More Yelp Blog School at The Botanist

The Brunch Diaries: Truc Vert, Mayfair

September 28, 2015

Last Sunday (as in not yesterday, the one before that) I met my friend Connie for Sunday brunch at Truc Vert courtesy of those lovely folks at Zomato. Tucked away in Mayfair just off of Oxford Street it was not somewhere I had heard of before. Given it was a sunny day we decided to… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Truc Vert, Mayfair

The Brunch Diaries: Kopapa, Seven Dials

August 27, 2015

Yes, yes I’ve been brunching again! I just can’t help it it’s become one of my favourite things (in fact I may have mentioned this already but Jen and I have already decided we’re swapping our monthly afternoon tea adventures for brunch ones in 2016 so expect to see more eggs on the blog next… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Kopapa, Seven Dials

The Brunch Diaries: Caravan, Kings Cross

August 19, 2015

It seems like ages since I wrote a food post that doesn’t revolve around afternoon tea but my second favourite meal has to be brunch and I really like it when places continue to serve their brunch menu until late afternoon because I’m not a morning person whatsoever. Meeting Victoria about 3pm at Kings Cross… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Caravan, Kings Cross

The Brunch Diaries: The Table Cafe, Southwark

April 25, 2015

I’m not a morning person so I struggle to eat breakfast on a daily basis but brunch is fast becoming one of my favourite meals. There’s something deliciously naughty about being able to have a lie in and still get your fill of eggs! And where better to indulge than number 49 in the top… Read More The Brunch Diaries: The Table Cafe, Southwark

The Brunch Diaries: Granger & Co, Clerkenwell

April 23, 2015

I’d promised Joanna we’d go for brunch on Saturday morning and had planned for the Bourne & Hollingsworth Buildings to be our destination of choice but I didn’t realise just how popular a place it was and when we arrived they were fully booked and so could not take any walk ins! Luckily the staff… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Granger & Co, Clerkenwell

The Brunch Diaries: Oriel, Heathrow – Terminal 3

February 23, 2015

For being an international terminal there aren’t a lot of options for places to eat at terminal 3 beyond chain restaurants (Yo Sushi/Strada) and small snack type places like EAT so when I was looking for a place for breakfast before my flight to New York I was happy to stumble across Oriel tucked away… Read More The Brunch Diaries: Oriel, Heathrow – Terminal 3

The Brunch Diaries: VQ, Bloomsbury

June 23, 2014

Last week an old school friend was in town for a project management course so we met up for dinner the night she arrived in town. Her hotel was near the British Museum, an area I don’t know very well so we met at the front of the museum and headed towards Oxford Street in… Read More The Brunch Diaries: VQ, Bloomsbury

The Brunch Diaries: The Breakfast Club, Spitalfields

April 29, 2013

Since I had a train to catch from Liverpool Street Station at 1:30pm (and I’m always ridiculously early for, well, everything) late Sunday morning seemed like the perfect time to check out a branch of this unique chain of restaurants. It seems I wasn’t the only person with this plan in mind as when I… Read More The Brunch Diaries: The Breakfast Club, Spitalfields
