London’s best breakfasts

Rise and shine for the most important meal of the day as we serve up the best good morning grub to be found in the capital.

Lantana Cafe Fitzrovia

Fitzrovia

Kick off your duvet, rally the troops and head to the Lantana Cafe Fitzrovia, where they’re stacking corn fritters, smashing avocados, toasting courgette bread and grilling chunks of halloumi like there’s no tomorrow.

Try the French toast, grilled banana and maple syrup medley, if the full English isn’t your cup of tea.

Caravan

King’s Cross

Stem broccoli in a red quinoa and buckwheat grain bowl for breakfast? You might have had enough of the whole super seed food trend but you’d be missing out if you didn’t spend a weekend lapping up the delicious brunch menu at Caravan in King’s Cross.

Tuck into a teriyaki crab and spring onion omelette, poached eggs on an aubergine puree spread, thick slabs of toasted sourdough, baked eggs and tomato pepper ragout, sweet potato and cumin waffles.

Dishoom

Covent Garden, Carnaby Street, King’s Cross and Shoreditch

Londoners have been raving about Dishoom for what feels like yonks. A self-styled Bombay café with branches in Covent Garden, Carnaby Street, King’s Cross and Shoreditch, it’s like Dishoom has breathed even more soul and spice into Indian food – if that’s even possible.

What’s more, they’re making breakfast super interesting. We’re talking bacon and sausage naan rolls, spicy scrambled eggs, chilli cheese toast, Bombay omelettes –the works. It’ll liven up your morning that’s for sure.
