So close to my grandkids school it's my go to place in the am when I want a scone…read more Reading reviews on the best places for a scone in London , this chain cafe was rated #5 for scones. I must agree that so far they have the best tasting scones Funny one day I asked for a tea to go ( which here is called a take away) and the cashier said an English Breakfast take away. I replied I don't want breakfast and then realized what an English breakfast is! I'm learning a new culture!

Although the staff working were extremely inattentive and not very friendly, the food was otherwise. Delicious cheese and ham, on perfect bread! Great lemonade! Took it to go so I could sit by Barnes Pond and have a little late lunch picnic. Would recommend at least trying the bread here, or to grab some food before heading out. Haven't yet sat in the shop, was quite busy, and seemed not a place to sit alone. Aesthetics are nice, decor nice, although I don't know if I like how the bread is sitting outside of the cash register area, also a bit misleading where to pay, especially because the staff aren't attentive. Maybe it's because I'm young and not another mum stopping by for a large order or a loaf! Docked a star for the negative part (staff) but besides that, yum!

Restáurant was right across from the bus stop. What a lovely place. We shared a breakfast. Orange juice and poached egg on an English Muffin with salmon. They actually separated our order and we each got our own plate which was well presented, and most importantly delicious food. The orange juice was fresh and so good. The poached egg cooked to perfection. The salmon fresh , and the English muffin good. I still prefer Thomas'. Haha. All in all a great breakfast, outstanding service and a truly charming place. I must go to. PS they do have wifi. Just ask for the password. Ellie our waitress was really outstanding.

The lovely lady in the shop couldn't help me but she did come up with some suggestions for alternative cheeses and we had fun sampling a few different ones. I walked away with an aged Italian cheese, nothing like what I went in to the shop looking for but it was so luscious I couldn't say no. I also found in the shop, (a HUGE surprise!) two Spanish sauces that I had discovered on holiday and have been searching in England for ever since. So I wasn't able to find my Mexican cheese, but I was happily reunited with two wonderful sauces. Happy days!

This shop has a funny sign on the door, which really sets the tone. It's a well-run, popular place run by friendly and knowledgeable staff. It also serves home-made condiments to go with the wide range of fresh produce. The one downer is the price. It's in Barnes and it's local fare, so it's understandable, but it's difficult to make a case for going when you do your shopping on a Saturday, at which time the Farmer's market has a stall with the same things, only cheaper.

Apart from the many Middle Eastern restaurants lining the street, a number of food stalls also regularly sell their delicacies. This lovely gentleman has been offering the best home-made (well street-made) falafels for as long as I can think. He can normally be found outside the greengrocer's at 96 Golborne Road. A small falafel wrap costs £2.50 with the large one at £3.00 being even more of a bargain.

The game plan was to follow the savouries with the sweets while engaging in some casual sketching.

Starting with the most aromatic, delicious pretzel I know Bakehaus was a hit. And so the rest of the goods tasted great with the highlights being the Butter-nut Crest, Bienenstich Pastry (vanilla and almond) and Chocolate-Hazelnut Crocant(delectable!).

I do not have such strong ties to German bread, but my time in Berlin has taught me how to appreciate a good pretzel (with butter if necessary, not mustard, you heathen!). Bäkehaus isn't quite as gemütlich (or cozy) as your favorite neighborhood bakery in Germany since it's all self-service, but it gets the job done. The pretzels were soft and chewy and surprisingly enough, reasonably priced! Bäkehaus also offers loaves of rye bread and a plethora of sandwiches with a German twist (I spotted a pork schnitzel sandwich with cranberry sauce on ciabatta for £3.99!), so why not grab something here for lunch instead of opting for a pricey sandwich from Pret or a sad sandwich from Tesco? It's located on the high street just minutes away from the Tube station, so you really don't have an excuse.
