Crazy que outside in Sun morning - you can skip it for TA cup to a stylish place with a staff who don't have problem with crazy coffee adict such as me. Great Ethiopian coffee from Barn that Sunday.

Dwayne McDonald

The place is a vibe! I would recommend to everyone who is looking for a nice and easy going space to eat, drink or catch up with friends with a light meal...m1lk is the place to be!

Hadeel K

What a perfect spot for breakfast or brunch in London.Super unique and delicious plates thier menu was offering.We have try the banana bread with Tahinia and Hallomi both were so good and I love it.

Natalia

Delicious brunch , fantastic coffee , great atmosphere (the last one only when there is not to many people, otherwise very chaotic on weekends) bets days to go Monday - Thursday before noon

Colm

Everything is good here. Personal favourites are The Convict & Sweet Maria . Bring a friend and share those two. Don't forget to have a smoothie . Oh and on weekends there's pancakes .

Jos Jones

Fantastic coffee and food is insanely good. Be prepared to line up on weekends - worth the wait for the corn fritters or baked eggs ...or anything else on the menu!

Alan Wherton

Love the "convict"! Been 2-3 times, Wife and I noticed last summer when walking past a big queue outside, decided to check it out, glad we did... Good food, relaxed, bright , and friendly staff A+.

Jack O

One of the very best spots in London for brunch and coffee . Creative food with classic elements. Brilliantly balanced espresso from Workshop Coffee . Top class filter from Koppi in Sweden.

Agnieszka Krawczyk

Young Betty is my favorite, hollandaise sauce is the best in the world! Even just taking a simple sourdough bread with avocado is heavenly good! <3

Thomas Evans

Super friendly staff , great atmosphere and amazing coffee and food all combine to make this the best cafe in the area. Be prepared to queue at the weekend (not for long)- its definitely worth it!

Rob Dyson

Courgette fritters are amazing, get a side of bacon - cooked to perfection (if you prefer non-crispy). Kurdish baked eggs also fantastic. Plus their coffee is best (& also cheapest) in South London.

Jess

I haven't had good cornbread in almost a decade. These guys have good cornbread . They're also lovely and made me the prettiest flat white I've ever seen.

Aimée Jane Parr

Recommend ‘The Convict’ muffin , seems like a small portion but surprisingly quite filling and definitely tasty! Drip coffee and smoothies were good also.

Eva Koukalova

Cool trendy place , friendly staff , great coffee and food = all I need from my favourite café . Their pistacchio cake is heaven!

Thiago Maia

The food is just great and now they do nights with amazing food and wine . The staff is really friendly and fun. I just can't stop coming here ❤️

Lisa Hayward

Be prepared to queue for a weekend brunch ! But it's definitely worth it, great food and well prepared in a cool space.

David O'Neill

Best breakfast/brunch option in Balham. Love "The Convict" breakfast . Sometimes a bit of a wait but have never regretted it!

Tobias Otte

One of the few places were you will be surprised that there is a difference between good and great brunch . Try the pancakes when you're lucky enough to be there on a weekend.

Chloe P

Owned by Australians so they have brekky to perfection ???????? Coffee on point. Lines out the door on the weekend so allow time to wait but it's worth it.

Alexander Palmer

The convict brunch with hangover sauce will redeem any sins of the previous night. Truly delicious. No booking system so may have to wait for 30 minutes at peak time but so worth it.

Bruce Bolton

Good vibe, great breakfasts . Best I've had in a long time. Good coffee . Flat whites , lamingtons & Anzac bikkies - what more could you want? Oy, oy...oy.

Mr P

Coffees are excellent despite being small in stature. Large space for brunch - a rarity for independent coffee shops .

Patrice Hollywood

Iced coffee and sweet Maria were great. Slightly on the pricey side but everything was above average quality and all the staff were super friendly .

Dee FoodinHand

Get the coal grilled pork belly sub with puffed rice and miso mayo . Best thing you'll eat this week ????

Charles Adams

Food and coffee is very good, music is way too loud though. Kills all conversation.

Lef Germenlis

The best cold brew , great coffee and incredibly tasty food for lunch ( food is a bit overpriced). Friendly staff always

Jana Dolejšová

The menu is creative, amazing breakfasts and coffee . Love this place. ????????

Amos Rojter

Beer coffee shop in Balham, evident by the queue outside early on a Sunday. Coffee is perfect, and the food is amazing.

Callum Stott

"The Convict" has to one of my new favourite brunch items. The food is excellent and people seem to know it so be prepared for a bit of a queue.

Valentina Covey

Great chilled vibe. Thoroughly recommend the Sweet Maria fritters and Lois smoothie . Fast service , great ambience.

James Watts

Had the Kurdish fried eggs w/ chorizo , spinach , labnen and kirmizi biber. Best brekkie i've had all year!!

Lisa Hayward

I really do love it here! Great brunch place ... Just avoid busy times unless you want to queue.

One of the best lattes i ever had! Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon are wonderful! The decoration is amazing! I will be coming here a lot!

Delicious food, friendly stuff and everything was good the coffee ???????? Sweet Maria + baked eggs with Labnih ❤️

Great brunch eats, plenty of vegetarian options .

Aeropress coffee was amazing. The convict was really good as well .

Kurdish eggs are the best brunch in Balham . Make sure you save a wedge of bread 'til the end to mop up tasty juices .

Raquel de Meneses

Corn fritters ✔️ Corn bread and miso pecan "Nutella " ????

Chris Coulson

Certainly owns the title of best coffee in balham. It won't be quick if you're in a rush. I'd recommend sitting in and also getting a 'posh' breakfast

Unique and cool atmosphere. Superbly brewed aeropress coffee from Swedish roasters.
