Brick House Bakery & Cafe in Southwark

Qué lugar tan fabuloso. Nos lo encontramos y era un tesoro. La comida para el almuerzo era fresca y el pan casero. ¡Nunca había probado un pan de centeno tan sabroso suave y delicioso! Su muffin de arce era magnífico y todos sus artículos de panadería se veían increíbles.

Nice coffee but super duper slow, especially for a cafe close to a treinstation I think they need to up their speed. A coffee shouldn’t take 8 mins really, as being second in line

¡7 muchachos uniformados en el área vieron el Café Nero en la carretera pero afortunadamente el conocimiento local nos trajo aquí! ! ! Gran descubrimiento escondido Agradable sensación industrial mientras caminamos en una gran mezcla de olores para darle la bienvenida Tanto café como pan para hornear Tenía un pastel de la mañana Bostock después de la recomendación del servidor amigable Me alegro de haber hecho frangipani y mermelada en una rebanada de brioche Los panes de masa fermentada se veían geniales Feliz de recomendar, las placas bkfst se veían geniales para

Me encantó este lugar. Gran café y buena selección de otros alimentos. Tenía el panecillo salado que era un muffin de pan de maíz con un huevo hervido. Fue grandioso.

Visité aquí por primera vez recientemente después de tropezar con él mientras compraba en Dulwich y disfruté de la experiencia. Sin darme cuenta de que cerraron a las 4 pm, desafortunadamente no pude obtener la comida que inicialmente pedí porque la cocina se estaba cerrando, así que tuve que optar por una opción fría que se sirvió rápidamente y muy sabrosa con excelentes ingredientes. El servicio fue rápido y educado. Me gusta este lugar porque es más peculiar que la mayoría, tiene un buen ambiente y el menú es diferente. Sí, los precios son un poco más altos que en otros establecimientos similares, pero según la calidad de la comida y la bebida que tuve, no tengo problemas para pagar ese pequeño pero extra. Me encanta la panadería abierta en la parte trasera de la cocina, donde puedes ver todo el pan casero que se está haciendo, pero sé rápido, ya que parece ser muy popular y se vende rápidamente. Definitivamente regresaré (¡más temprano esta vez!) Para probar algo de la comida caliente para el desayuno y estoy deseando que llegue.

Overpriced and very snobby staff....I think you have to look a certain way to be accepted by the staff! Will not be returning!

I like the deliberately spartan appearance of this establishment As I arrived one member of staff was dancing behind the till -this made me laugh and seemed in keeping with the ambience I had a coffee and checked out the menu. food is reasonably priced and was nutritious and tasty The place is laptop friendly with free wifi

I really like the brick house, always good food (don’t be late, often sold out by 2pm) and very good coffee. A little pricey but I can live with that. The service is adequate, although a bit up and down. Some staff are great, & some Beavis and butthead types seem like they’d rather not be there. My main gripe is the acoustics. As a parent I understand the reality that children make noise and I don’t mind that. It actually makes me smile. However, the music choice always seems a bit ‘aggressive’ and a bit loud. With hard surfaces everywhere, this often escalates to an unbearable din. I definitely don’t want to lose this cafe - I just wonder if some clever soft surfaces or acoustic tiles would make it a much calmer place? I hope so.

I love independent cafes, bars and restaurants - I always love to try new places. The site is Peckham has a great look but that is all I can say which is positive. Very poor customer service, the lady who served me couldn’t be bothered (very negative attitude) and £6.50 for an overpriced sandwich with little filling. Better value and customer service at Greggs down the round. Cash only which I don’t mind however a smile is free. The only plus is that the bread was nice enough however I will not return or recommend.

I went to this place in Peckham at just before 10am today. 3 staff behind the till all ignoring me. Sour faced miserable people who cannot be bothered to look up, smile or acknowledge the presence of a customer. I eventually asked the male waiter if the chicken sandwich, as advertised on the blackboard, was available. No it wasn’t ready for 5-10 mins. I have a train to catch. I said it’s advertised on your board. He sarcastically responded we wouldn’t wipe it off just because it’s not ready. How rude and offensive. Peckham is a friendly place with many places to eat where you are not insulted. Avoid this caff.

We heard about this place via a friend of a friend who had raved about this place making their own bread and serving lovely vegan food- brunch, lunch and yummy cakes and cookies- everything made on site. So we arrived around midday and the place was absolutely heaving with families, couples and friends - fab atmosphere. There was a huge set of shelves with all types of flavoured breads (even chocolate sourdough). Very long sharing tables which didn’t seem to bother anyone. We decided to go shopping and pop back after the lunch time rush. We arrived back around 3ish when although still very busy we managed to get a table as some people were just leaving. We had coffee (cappuccino and Americans) and chocolate and coffee cake and chocolate cookies - all made on the premises - it was lovely and the staff were great too (friendly, not like Gail’s), the only downside was that they had sold all the bread ☹️ This has given us a really good reason to return and we will very soon.

To be fair the coffee and food is good, but the hipster vibe in Brick House coffee shops just does my head in.

Every time I visit London, as I did last week for a three- day convention, I always love to visit the local cafes or restaurants and enjoy the healthy quality of their menus. So my son who is like me took me to the Brick House which he had been to before and enjoyed. There are a number of plusses about this cafe and possibly the biggest is their only use of sourdough bread. When my wife had cancer she was told to only eat sourdough bread and no other type of bread by the expert dieticians. I also had mashed aubergine and two poached eggs plus kale. The sort of breakfast I would cook at home in Ireland. The place was pretty crowded and many of the customers of varying ages were using their laptops. I said to my son are they coming here to have breakfast and work from " home"? He thought they were mainly, and I thought that's nice. I also thought the decor was extremely sparse. It reminded me of a large barn without the straw and the animals. I personally, as an artist, was a bit shocked by the visual boringness of the place. My son pointed out that most there were on their laptops, and would not even notice the surroundings. Each to their own! I finally thought that the price was expensive for what I had. But I tend to think that about most of the prices in London eateries. I suppose the only answer is to move to, or live in, a less expensive place, like Cork, where I live, and am now back in. Oh well. Off to breakfast in Tony's Bistro which is about half the price but not nearly as healthy!

Poor, how they can charge 19 quid for a sarni a salad and 2 x non alcoholic drinks is beyond me.........service was.......less than joyous

Came here on tripadvisor recommendations when visiting Dalwich. Nice hipster-vibe cafe. Had cappuccinos which were very good (slightly bitter and not too milky, just as i like them). I got a middle eastern salad which was really really good but the portion size was so small (and it was expensive) and the presentation (or lack of) was laughable - more just a scoop of it dumped on my plate. Pretty disappointing. My bf got a salad sandwich which was simple but very nice. To top it off, we got a sourdough cinnamon “donut” and holy moly couldve smashed that in no time!! Would go back here just for that!!

I normally rave about the Peckham Rye...but loaf bought today is overly sour and not the usual crumbly, chewy, nutty loaf. It even sliced differently. We both were so disappointed. Please make it the old way, this new recipe is just like any other Rye...

My breakfast here, early on a recent weekend, was a reasonably enjoyable experience. This is a cafe /bakery combo in an old warehouse just off the Lordship Lane strip. The vaulted ceilings of the interior create quite a cavernous and spacious feel. There's a lot...

Have been coming here for some time and am always happy to go back. Their bakery products are excellent and so are their salads and savory snacks. Coffee is strong as I like it and they know how to froth milk. It can get packed...

5 stars for the best bread I have ever eaten. It’s one of the best things to move to ED since I bought a place 25 years ago. Needs to sort out pricing on eating in - expensive for some options and they need to...

The great thing about dulwich is that there is so many great places to go for coffee, brunch, lunch etc. This place isn’t one of them. The coffee is overpriced and of a poor quality. I’m happy to pay for quality but paying for something...

Very short walk from East Dulwich station and the heart of the village. For us useful because it’s so convenient to Champions Hill and Dulwich Hamlet’s football ground so you can avoid the delays and crowds at the pub but still have a tasty lunch....

This place was much better and get worse and worse, unfriendly staff.!! We arrived there were 3 tables available but had not been clean dirty plates and cups .. we waited good 10 minutes then i had to ask them to clean the table.. I...

Having a good experience at Brick House is all about timing. It’s now open from 8am on the weekend which is good. Unfortunately it’s impossible to avoid at least one triple stroller with Cecil, Barnabus and Petunia + parents in tow. However at least between...

I have only left one review before this one and that was for a restaurant we found on holiday a few years ago that was excellent. My reason for this review couldn't be more different. Called in for a takeaway sandwich and cake. Initial appearances...

Love their coffee, bread and eggs but I'm not a fan of their home made chocolate spread - too rich, home made jam - too tart, and their homemade sausage rolls as they are too meaty and no flavour. BUT great service and everything else...

Everything you would want from a. Place for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Great tasting food, lovely bread and perfect atmosphere to spend a morning/afternoon.

i went with my son, daughter-in-law and baby grandson- so we were probably annoying the previous reviewers. I think they just made a mistake going there if they wanted peace and quiet. The food is fresh and well cooked - my d-in-l is vegan and...

I don't often write reviews but this place inspired me ! Utterly chaotic, I echo everything the previous reviewer put in terms of poor experience & shambolic system etc, it is utter bedlam ! I have never seen so many members of staff running around...

Had a number of bad consecutive experiences here hence the poor rating, the service is shambolic to say the least. The system is all wrong and we have frequently found ourselves having to wait ages. Whether you are just buying a loaf of bread, getting...

The Brick House is an artisan baker come micro brewery and beyond cool. Organic/well sourced food well cooked. Can recommend the Peckham Pils, although I'm not usually a beer drinker. We enjoyed a delicious salad - pear, roquefort, hazlenuts, and avocado on sourdough bread with...

I came here for the first time with my 2 housemates hoping for a warm brunch nook with yummy food and we were more than pleased! After queueing up to order and a little bit of a struggle to find a place to sit, we...

Given this place is so enthusiastically instagrammed, I was surprised to see it has only recently been listed on Tripadvisor, notching up limited, quite negative, reviews. If you want solitude, space and silence while you dine, then this place is not for you. It's minimal,...

Wow just paid £3.50 for a standard size pain au raisin. Even Harrods food hall would be ashamed to charge that for a pastry. I am still in shock.

This would make a fabulous music venue with the vast open building and high ceilings. Instead it is generally filled with giant buggies, screaming babies and chattering mothers (who don;t seem to be aware their babies are screaming). Buy the bread (it's great albeit expensive)...
