I love breakfast as anyone will know - if they have read any of my reviews. So I'm on the hunt for the best English breakfast or variety of cafe breakfasts . I'm in Hamlets on Hornsey rd . I had their Ophelia breakfast (changing veg sausages to Cumberland) This has become one of my top breakfasts. My friend has a cheese and mushroom omelette - see the photos ( yes I eat mine ) Go out of your way to visit this Cafe IT is up there. Happy breakfast

Great food with the perfect price point. The staff was really kind and it was not too crowded. The only thing was that the mega breakfast was a bit too greasy for our taste.

I’m not even exaggerating when I say this - one of the best French Toast dishes I’ve ever had. This place is an absolute sleeper. I’ve been to a ton of specialty places in London and they never get this quite right - absolutely perfect and amazing value considering the sheer amount of fruit on this plate.

The only cafe I've been to in ages where the sausages are edible and very good quality. Service was fast and very friendly. If you like traditional breakfast as for your fruit on the side, you will understand once you order.
