Aprés Food Co. in Islington

Great Experience, will definitely come back and enjoy the place. Looking forward to coming back with my friends.

Amazing service and an incredible, creative menu. Easily the best burger I’ve had with many delicious homemade sauces for dipping fries. My girlfriend has celiac and lactose intolerance and she had an amazing meal as well. The restaurant makes everything from scratch and uses fresh herbs and ingredients. They’re doing 10% off in September since they’ve just reopened after Covid shutdown, don’t miss out!

We had lunch outside on a quiet post-lockdown Monday. Absolutely delicious gluten-free spaghetti with pesto, tomatoes and rocket and a lovely glass of rosé in the sunshine. About as simple as it can get but deliciously executed and presented.

We tried the Après eggs, the Full English and the Salmon topped Pancakes and everything was incredible. All dishes (except Pancakes) came with their freshly baked gluten free toast, which was probably the best I have ever tried so far! I absolutely loved this place. The Kitchen is opened, and plants decorate the walls/tables. Run by two lovely young people, this place makes you feel home instantly. They even prepared us sandwiches to take away for lunch!

One of the most delicious restaurant food I’ve EVER had! Comforting, creative, tasty & not boring till the last crumb. Gluten free desserts are excellent, I had a coconut yoghurt semifreddo and I still smile at the memory of that sophisticated taste and consistency.. Lovely food, great service. I’ll definitely keep coming back for more!

It is very lovely, cosy place! The food looks and taste amazing. Deserts are delicious and beautiful. I can recommend the place for all types of occasions, date, friends visit, business meal. I will be back here for sure :)

Great gluten free menu. Very tasty food. Portions are on the small side especially for the price. Service is a little slow.

Had a litle difficulty with booking online as we were a party of 5, but accommodated us when we arrived. Interesting menu, with plenty of different dishes to choose from. All cooked well and served quickly. Makes a change from the more usual brunch fare. Juices more popular with some then others!!

I love coming here for breakfast/brunch. It’s such a welcoming a friendly restaurant. The service is always fantastic and the food is delicious. Highly recommend the Aprés Hash and the Cooked breakfast - both divine. I often come on a weekday and it’s quite quiet...at a weekend it gets much busier.

Love this place - cute, cosy, homely and really lovely friendly service. Absolutely love that everything is gluten free and so much thought and care is put into the dishes. Thank you!

If all restaurants and cafes were like this, it would be a much happier world! Service was brilliant: friendly, attentive, and made us feel at ease. The food was gorgeous. Everything is gluten free and they use the best ingredients - organic, free range, fresh. The toffee cake dessert was INSANE! We will definitely be back to try more things out!

Based solely on online reviews, I sought this cafe out on my very first day in London, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. Everything on the menu is gluten-free and delicious. Even though I arrived just as lunch service was ending (right from the airport - suitcase in hand - its a long story), the charming waiter graciously led me to a table when other establishments would have said “Sorry, but we’re closed until dinner Bud.” I had the chicken salad (pictured) and a glass of Prosecco. The salad was fresh (and beautifully plated) and delicious. For dessert, I ordered a pot of tea (I mean, its bloody Britain darling you HAVE to have tea!), and the Christmas Sticky Toffee Cake (smothered in a moat of sweet cream) which may very well be my favorite gluten-free confection of all time. Totally amazing. The cafe’s sweet doggie, Archie sat at my feet keeping me company while I sipped another cup of Earl Grey and plugged my iPhone into the charging station behind my chair. From the food, to the service and ambiance - everything was first rate. When you travel to London you must seek out this little local gem.

Food was excellent but slow service ruined our experience. We came during our lunch break and had to wait to be seated which was fine but then had to wait another 15 minutes for someone to come and take an order. During that time staff was on the phone or chatting with each other. No one was really on the floor looking after the guests, asking them how the food was. Restaurant is nicely designed but dirty plates on almost all the tables just made it look not good & not welcoming at all. We also had to go to someone to ask for a bill because no one came to us after we finished our brunch and were sitting with dirty plates for 10 mins while restaurant was nearly empty. Although the food was excellent and fresh we would not return only because of the service.

Visited this for brunch on Saturday and the apres cooked breakfast really impressed. The gluten free bread tasted amazing.

A cafe experience to remember. Breakfast was exceptional and service spot on! The best dinning experience of our trip.

This place is pretty small but really nice. I was reading the breakfast menu and there’s plenty choice. I can highly recommend the poached eggs bruschetta with chilli oil which if I’m being honest didn’t fancy but tried it and it worked incredibly well. On...

This is the second time I've been to this restaurant - everything is healthy but SOOO delicious! Today I went with my husband for a delicious and really reasonably priced breakfast and previously I've been with clients. I was really impressed with the flavours, the...

Had the best brunch with my dad here! I felt silly as I had booked as the streets were very quiet... thank god I did!! Jam packed with a great vibe and cute Christmas decoration and plants. Lovely service and friendly, warm staff!!! Loved the...

Visiting London from Germany, my wife and I made a special point of booking a holiday meal at Aprés Food Co. Though everything on the menu looked amazing, we decided to book a special three-course Christmas meal for the end of our trip. The holiday...

My partner and I have just had the most amazing breakfast! In London for his birthday and this was a great start to the day. We both had the same dish with one exception - I had the smoked salmon and my partner had the...

One of the most amazing places to eat. Great atmosphere and friendly owners. For the best in gluten free breakfast I give this place a 5/5.

Wonderful warm meal on a cold night in London. Called ahead but wasn’t necessary. Hostess/waitress welcomed us and all who followed later. All good was made fresh with no filler ingredients as reflected in savory tastes and cooking skill. Butternut bisque was surprisingly hearty and...

We booked to have breakfast here at 10.30am. We didn’t get a hot drink for 1/2 hour and finally had our food at 11.30am, one hour after we sat down. We don’t mind waiting for a little while but this was far too long. There...

A welcome relief from the standard fare offered for breakfast at most restaurants. We are trending toward a whole food, plant based diet, without getting all political about it. We discovered Apres Food, and loved it, returning 3 times on our recent weeklong visit to...

My friend recommended this place and I'm very thankful I now travel here to eat whenever work allows. It's serves health conscious food that makes my taste buds sing when I'm eating it (seriously I couldn't stop eating the salads whilst my burger sat there...

Food and service couldn't be faulted. Service was very good and the staff were very friendly too. Having a very big appetite I thought the apre eggs were a tad small but it was delicious. The spicy sauce was amazing and toast was done brilliantly...

Just completely great. Full of interesting twists and originality without losing whatever it is that makes breakfast so good in the first place. Bacon was sweet and smokey, toast had a great crust (no mean feat for GF bread), and in general we just felt...

This is my second time in London, this time I been here for months And this place is definitely the best breakfast l ever had I’ll all London Everything is so fresh and the tasty The best part that everything is gluten free but you...

On a weekend in London my friend asked to meet up for lunch at Apres Food... I didnt even look it up online just went on her suggestion and choice... so I was really so impressed by the lunch the food and the service. The...

I live and work locally and frequent various restaurants in this area - I will place reviews for the others sometime soon - but this is by far my favourite for breakfast. Mr T and I ate another perfect breakfast here again! I love the...

I have been meaning to visit Apres Food for a while as it is Gluten Free and I have Coeliac Disease. Staying at a nearby Travelodge overnight meant I was able to walk down for breakfast on Monday 30th September. I had the full breakfast...

First time back since May, this time for the dinner menu. Apres Food never fails to please. I had my best meal there yet. This place just gets better and better. We will return very soon! Danny and Catherine have got their formula spot on!

I visited Apres Food with a friend this evening and had the most wonderful food! It’s all absolutely delicious and a lot of thought and preparation has gone into making it as wholesome and healthy as possible for their diners. I started with some yummy...

Wow - perfectly chilled atmosphere. Small place but very creative with how they have fitted out the space. Booked the day before on line with no problems. Very slight wait as the place is obviously very popular. The food - sweet potato hash with poached...

We were staying nearby in Carrington for the weekend and found this lovely little place via trip advisor. What a find. Booked for a Saturday morning and it was packed..it's a little.place but they've managed to work the space well. I had their equivalent of...

Best brunch I have eaten. The menu contains healthy options and caters for vegetarians and non vegetarians. Friendly atmosphere and great service. Will go back and try lunch one day. You can book on line to make sure you get a table.

Fantastic food, best breakfast brunch i’ve had in ages. Took my girlfriend for her birthday and earned maximum credits. Great service, cool spot - will be back.

An absolute hidden gem! Stepping into Apres is like stepping into Catherine’s home....full of such welcoming energy from both her, Danny & of course little Archie!Where to start with the food....it was AMAZING...the menu is so carefully thought out and all gluten free! I chose...

My daughter is coeliac and was in London for work in August. I visited her twice and both times had dinner at Apres. Not only is the gluten-free menu a joy, but the warm and friendly atmosphere makes it somewhere you really want to return...

Amazing. I have celiac disease and finding a restaurant that can accommodate me is hard enough let alone one that is completely gluten free. I was blown away by the food and had to double check it was gluten free. The porridge is out of...

We loved this place so much we ended up having breakfast here EVERY DAY during our visit; I alternated between the having the Apres eggs and Apres hash each morning. Everything is fresh and flavorful, the atmosphere bright and homey. Even the homemade toast is...

Well I phone Apres on the Friday and they where fully booked. I explained to Danny that I was traveling down for the day . After a couple of min he offered me a table for 2 for the Saturday. This is without fail a...

Well what a find this is. Clerkenwell is full of great places to eat, but this is something just a bit different and just a bit special. It starts with the decor, which is homely but clean, bright and easy on the eye. The atmosphere...

This is a must on your list for London! Homemade delicious breakfast that blew us away. Probably one of the best breakfasts I’ve had! Worth a stop for sure.

I absolutely adore this restaurant. The ONLY problem I ever have when going there is nailing down what to have from the menu because it is ALL so fantastic. The owners are the hosts - which makes things even more magical. The food is just...

Great gluten and dairy free options. Food was okay. Service there is veeery slow. We were there on a Tuesday morning and it took forever for the waiter to take our orders or greet us in any way.

Had a vegetarian cooked breakfast and toffee cake to die for. Very sweet interior and lovely service: a true gem. Would highly recommend

Breakfast was delicious, even though overpriced -smoothies and juices far too expensive for the size/taste. But the service was really really poor. We were ignored, forgotten (we asked for table water 3 times), had our hot drinks order forgotten, which was apologised for when I...

As someone who is celiac it can be really frustrating when trying to find a restaurant that not only caters for my needs but allows me to indulge myself. This restaurant does. I love the food here the staff are incredibly knowledgeable about food and...

We had the Hash and Breakfast Rolls! Everyone in the family was happy! Great ingredients and an amazing taste. Wonderful staff!!!!I can’t wait to go back and try more.

My girlfriend and I had dinner here this evening and it was amazing! Lovely cosy and romantic interior and the food was delicious! Danny and Catherine have got it spot on and are great host/chef combo who are extremely passionate about what they do and...

My husband and I had dinner in Aprés Food Co tonight. We had such a lovely meal and would highly recommend. The staff we welcoming, knowledgeable and super helpful. I’m vegan and they provided some great options including a chocolate moose which was heavenly! Even...

In London last weekend and am gluten & cows milk free, so thought we'd try Apres. This place was amazing! Best breakfast I've ever had - so much so that we came back for lunch the next day before we went home. We ordered the...

Amazing meal, everything me and my partner ordered at lunch was cooked freshly and of great nutritional value, how these guys provide this service with the space they are given is really something to be proud of!! Keep it up Apres! :)

I went here with my boyfriend on a spontaneous dinner out, and it was absolutely beautiful. The restaurant/cafe itself is small but intimate, and has a very welcoming rustic, European feel. The service was excellent, and we were catered for perfectly. What is best here...

Went for brunch on our last visit to London, and will be returning on our next visit! The food was amazing (especially the bacon!). The coffee was exceptional too, and the service was great despite having a pretty full restaurant. Can’t wait to go back!

I would travel from Bournemouth to London just for this breakfast! The bacon was sensational! Fresh and tasty food that left me feeling good. Excellent service, I can’t wait for my next trip to Aprés Food

The food here was delicious! It was fresh and felt very healthy. The atmosphere was lovely although I would recommend booking for brunch as most of the tables were taken.

Apres if the cutest little place that I have ever had breakfast. It is full of character and quirky charms. The staff are all super friendly and gave excellent service. If I lived in London it would definitely be a regular place to go. Best...

Breakfasted here with my mother on my eighteenth birthday. I ordered the veggie cooked breakfast, whilst my mother ordered the standard cooked breakfast, both were amazing. All the elements of a standard cooked breakfast were elevated to new levels! The breakfast was healthy but indulgent,...

Popped in for brunch today and I can honestly say it was absolutely delicious! We had a few too many Mezcal the night before so needed something to rejuvenate us, this hit the spot perfectly! I had a vege breakfast, all organic and gluten free...

This place is incredible. The food was so ridiculously good I nearly licked my plate. Staff and atmosphere was just what the doctor ordered. Well done guys. Keep up the good work.

I googled "romantic gluten free London" to find a place for my partner who has recently realised she is wheat/gluten intolerant and this place came up as part of a list of Time Out best gluten free restaurants. And it had a good vibe. So...

Had an exceptional breakfast here, like nothing I have ever had before. Highly nutritious and healthy, but a proper full English at the same time. I see myself as being a bit of a full English connoisseur, and wanted something a bit different to everything...

Stumbled upon this restaurant, amazing food and great ambiance. Really tasty meal and healthy too. Friendly service with lots of options to accommodate dietary requirements , very reasonably priced. We will be back.

Wanted somewhere for light working lunch in Farringdon area. Read several excellent reviews ahead of booked visit on a Monday. We arrived at noon at which time we were the only customers but the Café Rapidly filled up. We were surprised that two dishes were...

We had brunch here on a Saturday morning. Hubby had the full English and I had the veggie breakfast. Both were delicious and full of flavour. I wasn’t so keen on the sweet potato hash but that was personal taste. The gluten free toast was,...

Pretty bad experience with this place. Sat down at a table at lunch time and looked through the menu. After good 15min waiting the waitress came to my table and said that I could only order drinks - as the food would take at least...

Absolutely gorgeous little restaurant with friendly staff who were there to help without being over bearing. Food was incredible. Service speed was fine, and considering everything (everything!) was homemade this was really good. Very charming restaurant and a lovely relaxing meal out for the two...

The BEST salad I have ever had and that is no exaggeration!! The co-owner who makes the food is a genius in nutrition and making food taste amazing. Everything we ate was gluten free and the menu has a fab selection of vegetarian and vegan...

We had a great meal this evening. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Fabulous to be able to have any item on the menu spoilt for choice. Everything we ordered lived up to our expectation and tickled the tastebuds.

But- the choices were poor and the food served was greasy spoon! Why? Why was it eggs and bacon, hash brown sausage and withered , over cooked mushrooms with fried bread???? I want choice! I came from NZ and marvelled that London has a gf...

Every sense satisfied and feeling truely nourished after a beautiful meal at Apres. We'll be back for sure.

Brought mum to Apres Food for her 92nd birthday. We all had a sumptuous lunch lovingly prepared and beautifully presented. Every morsel zings in the tongue even though it's healthy! Can't wait to come back. Hmmmm.. shall we stay for dinner!? Nick

I have been coeliac and gluten free for over 20 years. Stepping into this restaurant was like arriving in heaven. Friendly staff, great atmosphere and the most delicious gluten free food at great prices. My friend booked the restaurant and I had no idea the...

Lovely warm atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff, delicious food. I had the best gluten free pancakes ever! Definitely coming back!

Loved this place for breakfast, atmosphere is cool and chilled out. Apres cooked breakfast is obviously the way forward

Every time I visit London I seek out independent restaurants to try rather than visiting some of the more well known staples as I believe you get a much better experience and the food is usually way better. I found this to be totally true...

I'm a regular visitor to Apres as I am gluten free and struggle to find restaurants that cater for my needs but this one ticks all the boxes! I'm in London a lot for work and I try to get in as much as possible...

A delicious lunch and well worth the effort made to get here. Lovely staff and well thought out menu. Portion sizes were generous and after chatting with one of the owners, I learnt how much importance they place on the ingredients they source and the...

I've never written an online review but after another delicious meal I feel I have to tell everyone about this fantastic little independent cafe that I've had the pleasure to visit several times since their opening. Walking through the doors of Apres is like being...

I visited Apres today after wanting to visit for a very long time. After much research as one of my friends joining me was gluten free and the other dairy free we managed to find a date in the diary that worked for us all....

Had a wonderful evening dinner with my wife. The food was fantastic. Great atmosphere, cool interior design. The staff we very helpful and recommendations were spot on!

I gave this place a 1 star mainly because of how much I was looking forward to dining here compared to what it actually delivered. I have read about Apres Food for some time in articles or online, and salivated over the food photos on...

A few friends and I went for breakfast here the other morning. We really enjoyed the loverly relaxed atmosphere and great variety of nutritional dishes. I had the "Apres Hash" a great new healthy take on a hash brown breakfast, which was divine. But ended...

Had a beautiful breakfast at Apres Food Co. while visiting from Scotland for the May weekend. A gluten free cafe or restaurant is something we haven’t came across at home, and it was absolutely fantastic. Having Coeliac’s disease it gave my boyfriend the chance to...

We had the best cooked breakfast at Apres! Mouthwatering top quality ingredients cooked to perfection, from the amazing blossom bacon to the delicious tomatoes and if you think rocket and bean sprouts don’t belong on a cooked breakfast you are in for a treat. Perfect...

It might seem a bit back-handed to say that Apres Food ‘feels like a regular restaurant’; but it is meant as a genuine compliment. It’s totally gluten free, and easily accomodates other allergies. Yet it also offers delicious, delicate, well presented food in a hipster-chic...

Amazing food: a great menu with lots of options. Excellent staff:extremely helpful with dealing with a bit allergy. . Excellent atmosphere. Can’t wait to go back.

Excellent lunch with my two children 6 and 8. All gluten free and also accommodated our other allergies and preferences. Very warm welcome from the team and food was fantastic. My youngest even ate all the vegetables which is most out of character. A definite...

Went with my partner for lunch. They were in the process of changing their menu, as such their food selection was limited. However I had a cheese and leak tart along with some sweet potato fries. The tart itself was quite small but I was...

If I lived in London I would be here on a weekly basis. I have celiac disease, and a dairy allergy, and I could not have felt safer. The chefs are truly masters at understanding balanced plates and I felt full but not heavy after...

Had lunch here this week, such an easy review to write because it was all excellent, I’m not sure given the restaurants principles I saw I wine list but I may be mistaken. Nevertheless everything we had was delicious and served in such a friendly...

Went in for breakfast and was not disappointed! From the flat white to the Apres Breakast, it was excellent! I can’t rate this place high enough. If I could give it 10 stars I would. Definitely worth a visit!! In summary though, brilliant service, tasty,...

I work in The City, am coeliac and eat a Paleo, gluten-free, sugar-free diet. It is hard to find anywhere that caters for this, and so it was a delight to find Apres. Excellent, tasty, healthy, Paleo food - filling and tasty too, which is...
