Cafe Tamra in Wandsworth

A bit overpriced, but nice food. Seating is very tight, so not the most comfortable.

The food was amazing 👏 and the atmosphere was very cozy and clean the service was one of if not the best I have ever experienced also the chef was very nice to me and my family and I even went there for my birthday lunch with my friends last year Overall 10/10 would definitely recommend

A good variety of food with excellent flavour and quality.Staff are friendly with good ambiance particularly at the patio.I highly recommend it.

I would not go again because of what I learned about how they treat people. I had posted a detailed review before with all the reasons why however the owner’s wife ‘Mood by Mina’ spoke to me with the owners and begged me to take down the review which I did out of the kindness of my heart, thinking that I would then see change and believed that they were being sincere however since then nothing changed. I don’t recommend this establishment if you prefer ethical practice. If I could give minus stars I would.

This is my go-to spot for breakfast in Clapham and we always have the best food. I like the Lebanese breakfast best, but they’ve got vegan options too 🤤

Super friendly staff, great food, and coffee. The pancakes were great. If you are a dog person, it is the place for you.

Great friendly service. Attended to my every need. Was busy but was a bank holiday. Sat outside but blankets were provided. Food was fresh with good ingredients. The pancakes had a nice crisp on the bottom

Amazing food and amazing service from Joao

Amazing food! Very nice staff. Strongly recommend for breakfast and lunch.

Great service from Joei ! Delicious food and warm atmosphere

Coffee is not very tasty, and Avo toast is a bit expensive for what it is really. I happened to be in the area but I wouldn't come back ,:(

Was a little busy on arrival and had to wait for a table but staff for very attentive. Quickly sat down and my god ! Pancakes were insane, can't recommend enough. Venue is a little loud at times but can't be helped if you're busy as these guys are.

Very very bland food. Nothing like the sister venue cafe fleur (which is amazing) Luke warm coffee, and dishes with no flavour. When the waiter asked how the food was I gave him feedback, not expecting nor wanting anything in return, he came back defensive a full 15 minutes later explaining all the reasons HE didn’t think the food was bland. Why did you ask how the meal was if you’re not willing to accept the customers feedback. One to avoid.

My go-to spot for healthy ingredients, delicious food with FLAVOUR. Great for client meetings or hang outs with family and friends.The service, coffee, and management are top notch. Full Lebanese & Turkish Eggs are my favourite! Highly recommended.

Nothing to special, 3of us had brunch there, and all of us felt still hungry after all. The poached eggs on toast were cold, and the only part of the heat in my soup was chilli. The soup was pretty cold. Looks like a popular place for young people but maybe because we are much older we didn't enjoy it.

Lovely experience. Great service and very kind staff. Also, generous portion sizes.

I had a great experience at Tamra Cafe, trying their Tricolore Brunch and Matcha Latte. The food was good, but the real highlight was the Matcha Latte—surprisingly rich and strong in flavor, just like the ones I’ve had in Japan. I really appreciate that the barista carefully addressed my preference for oat milk, while still maintaining the deep, authentic matcha taste. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the visit even more enjoyable. Special thanks to the barista for her skill and effort. Definitely a place I’d revisit for quality matcha and great service!

Great place, really recommend the prices! Uploading the latest menu, as prices are higher now.

Been going here for years, just started having their excellent vegan breakfast, which is the best for miles around. 💙

Had brunch here last weekend, Hidden Gem. Amazing time with my friends!! Good vibe

Delicious food. Quick service and friendly team

The best brunch place in Northcote Road, 5* to the service!! Keep it up👍🏽👍🏽

The service and atmosphere is good. The main problem is food, both our breakfasts although looked good, were completely tasteless and every component seemed unseasoned, bread as well was old etc.

We love it here, breakfast quesadilla is incredible as well as their shwarma. Everything is always great quality and service is outstanding!

A lovely cafe with a very friendly chill atmosphere. Very nice staff, coffee and pastries :)

Cafe Tamra is an absolute gem! Their brunch is nothing short of exceptional, with perfectly crafted dishes that are both delicious and beautifully presented. The service is truly outstanding—every staff member greets you with a warm smile and goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed morning or a lively catch-up with friends. If you’re looking for a place that combines fantastic food, top-notch service, and a friendly vibe, Cafe Tamra is the place to be!

Aterah is a super star! Great service and terrific atmosphere! Love it!

Nuestro hijo vive aquí y dijo que deberíamos probar este lugar para el almuerzo. Tuvimos que hacer cola durante diez minutos (odio hacer cola por comida, especialmente cuando hay tanta elección en la zona) pero valió la pena la espera! El personal nos mantuvo informados de cómo se estaban moviendo las cosas (hay una mesa pagando su factura, no mucho tiempo ahora) y todos tenían una sonrisa y una gran manera de ellos. La comida era de primera categoría, (inglés completo y huevos escalfados con aguacate) y todo servido con una sonrisa. El café era A 1 , que siempre ayuda! Me di cuenta de que hay más de unas pocas reseñas de una estrella aquí y eso me sorprende. El lugar estaba rebotando y todo el mundo parecía estar pasándolo muy bien. El personal era muy atento, todo se movía sin problemas y había sonrisas por todas partes. Afortunadamente nunca leí las críticas antes de comer aquí, puede que nos hayan enviado en otra dirección. Por suerte teníamos un guía local y él tenía razón en el dinero, este lugar es un ganador! ¡Un 1 en Lloyds!

Amazing presentation. Excellent flavour, and great vibe!

We loved our breakfasts at Cafe Tamra. The service was smooth and speedy even though it was a busy weekend. The quality of the food is superb. I particularly enjoyed my “Full English”!

Perfect place for brunch in Northcote Road.

This is a local go to spot for us. The people who work there are all so lovely, it has a cozy vibe suitable for anyone. And the food it SOOO GOOOD!! It’s all proper hand-crafted with care and it so delicious. For brunch I highly recommend the full Lebanese and poached eggs!!

We stopped into cafe Tamra for a quick brunch and had a great experience. We each ordered the French toast, which was topped with strawberries and caramelized bananas. The service size itself was just enough French toast- not too much where you’re stuffed to the brim, but not so little that you’re leaving unsatisfied. We had to wait in the queue outside for a bit, but that’s par for the course for brunch on a weekend so we had no issue with waiting.

Lovely place for breakfast. Very good service and very nice breakfast. Range of breakfasts from full English to healthy bowls.

Great food and delightful service. Highly recommend! Try ANYTHING with smashed Avo, or add it to your brunch without a second thought! Don’t forget to try the fluffy pancakes

¡Sólo tengo cosas positivas que decir sobre el lugar! La comida era excelente - hay un montón para elegir, ya sea que usted come carne o vegano. ¡Puedo ver por qué hay colas aquí el fin de semana! No vi la factura, así que no puedo comentar los precios. Definitivamente volveré.

All the dishes looked amazing - avocado and chorizo toast was a perfect balance of flavour and healthy preparation. Excellent friendly staff!!

Foragers brunch was amazing, definitely recommended, you’ll never go wrong with chicken and avo. Their berry smoothie was good too, but the pancakes were a lil hard, not as fluffy as imagined… be there early to avoid the queue especially on weekends! (Updated) they no longer having the Foragers anymore 😢😢😢 tried the chicken shawarma this time- the flavour is there but the pita was just way too dry and hard ;(

Food phenomenal Service impeccable and kind Atmosphere, NYC West Village What more to ask…. The best brunch place in town! ❤️❤️❤️

Muy buena comida, buen ambiente pero caro. El menú tiene una buena selección de opciones de desayuno / brunch - era difícil decidir qué tomar!

Good lunch for myself and son, decent coffee. The very tasty Turkish eggs were only slightly let down by some very ordinary bread.

Just tried to go with a 2 month old baby - was told that I wasn’t able to come in as impossible to put pram next to any table - generally rude staff

Good basic fayre for breakfast - all the healthy stuff - on the Northcote road. Busy on sunny weekends!! Was first in so lacked atmosphere but staff were welcoming.

Used to have great bread, but the bread is now a terrible bland, grey small chunk.

Tamra is our local go to for an all day brunch or just a quick bite/coffee.. We recently had brunch for lunch, and it was as always effortlessly good. The food was absolutely yummy, the service was friendly, and the ingredients were fresh. I love how brunch can be enjoyed all day, and it was made even better with a glass of fizz. Betty our Boston Terrier was very welcomed too! :))

The best brunch I’ve had in Wandsworth! Brilliant little cafe with fun and chilled atmosphere and cute orange chairs. Super friendly and relaxed waiter. I got the avocado toast which was DELICIOUS and the dishes pictured which my friends got were also great. Will come back again!

Finally, a great café in London for brunch! With a one-of-a-kind menu for a unique experience, they offer an amazing mix of flavors in many different dishes. Obviously, I will be there for brunch every weekend.

To overpriced. A wrap £15.00 and a side of sweet potatoes fries £5.00 !!!!

Very nice place. Lots of choices on menu. There is siting in and out. Is warmer so if you want to sit outside need to wait until the table is free.

I had the French toast and it was DELICIOUS. It’s only served on the weekends and I think that’s to give the other options on the menu a chance because it’s that good. There was a little bit of a wait, but on a Saturday morning that’s understandable. Friendly staff, quick service despite how busy they were. I thought the prices were fair.

Not good. Poor service. Food was very nice though! New menu not very new just an excuse to raise the prices… Please change the staff, they insist on not writing down the order so wrong meals are a given. Would avoid - Flotsam and Jetsam nicer!!

Overpriced and portions have become ridiculously small. Pancakes were disappointing too. Edit (to reply to the owner’s comment below): I wouldn’t normally give 1 as I want to support small businesses in my area but put yourself in my shoes: had brunch for one and ended up with a £40 bill - still hungry and had only bite of the pancakes. No one asked for feedback - if your male waiter had asked me, I may have not commented on here. He didn’t. I understand the need to increase prices and don’t mind it but there should be a limit to portion control - today’s case was extreme (I paid for extra chicken but had tiny pieces added, only one piece of bread and even the piece of butter was tiny!). I didn’t expect the American style pancakes to be so thick and dry. On this one, maybe I should have asked before ordering so I’m partly accountable but the male waiter today saw that I only had one bite and didn’t bother to ask if everything was ok. He seemed pretty unbothered and wasn’t engaging at all hence why I ended up not saying anything and paying anyway. He should have not charged me for it. So I don’t think rating my experience today as 1 was unfair. I have come in the past and really enjoyed it but things have cleared changed drastically (the couple next to me told your lovely female waitress that they felt the portion was too small too and were surprised so I’m not the only one).

Lovely little café with a big brunch menu, so many options and quite reasonably priced. You can’t book and we had to queue for about 20-30 minutes to get a table for Sunday brunch, but the staff was well organised and friendly and given how busy the place was that was really not bad in terms of waiting time. Inside is quite small but cosy. The coffee was good and the Flat White had the perfect silky smooth milk texture. The food was delicious, I chose the Tricoloré brunch and we got some beans on the side, everything tasted really fresh and the portion was generous. The service was great throughout, the staff were so lovely and we didn’t feel rushed to order or pay at any point. Will be back!

Great customer service and amazing food! Highly recommend

Food is amazing, ordered French toast and tricolore brunch yum yum xx

I was told it’s impossible to make a bacon sandwich as it’s not on the menu but sourdough toast and bacon is????

This place is not for me! Not sure I undrstand being so popular, the place is stuffy and smelly, the staff is not welcoming or smiley ( sorry but you chose to work in hospitality, at least you make an effort). The food and drinks are nothing special and overpriced! Sorry but NO!!

I came in the week as it’s normally very busy on weekends. The pancakes were very tasty!

Such a lovely place with great food and coffee. Ed and Daisy are always so welcoming and provide wonderful service every time I pop in!

Staff are really personable especially Daisy who was happy to chat to us and spoil our dog rotten! Food was great too no complaints

Expect a queue, but our favourite brunch spot in clapham junction!

This is the best kept secret. I have never in my life experienced food as good as this. The food is reasonably priced but it is amazing and taste. I highly recommend going there for breakfast. Try the french toast with a mask of pone and caramelized bananas.

Very good food. Generous portions and not too bad prices. Service was a bit slow because it was very busy. You can't book. Next visit, the pancakes were a bit dry so we asked for some cream. However, they brought us a whole new dish which was above and beyond.

Great food and huge selection. Limited on drinks. Busy but great vibe and service. Sweetcorn fritters and halloumi and chorizo are a big win. They are friendly too and happy to go off menu for kids.

Delightful staff, good breakfast menu and nice coffee 😋 . plus a nice clean loo 👍 what more

One of the best breakfast spot i have been.

The male waiter was great. Food pricey.

Wow! Amazing pancakes and very friendly service. Will definitely be coming back.

Found it by accident, and what a find. Friendly staff, great atmosphere, absolutely the best Dirty Chai I have ever had, and they add a little twist for me. Food is good, you have to try the carrot cake. and will visit every time we are in town from Kent.

Best brunch in the area, hands down! You can't book and always have to queue for around 10/20mins on weekends but it is absolutely worth it!!

Great service. Great birthday brunch at outside table. Super dog friendly. Vegan options for my friend. Couldn't have been better.

Very cosy cafè with excellent food and very friendly service and atmosphere. Does not accept reservations Recommended!

Gorgeous food and lovely friendly staff! Highly recommend, very busy so you may need to wait for a table, but worth a wait in my opinion!!

Heard about this cute cafe for a while and finally managed to go. They don't accept bookings but queue was very reasonable taking into account its fame and popularity. Menu is simple, classic brunch but with some little twists to every dish. Food tasted fresh and wholesome, service was kind and friendly. Was not disappointed!!

I'm coeliac, and the staff at Cafe Tamra were very accommodating and helpful. A good portion of the menu can be made gluten free! Also a cute place to just sit and read.

One of the best breakfast places around South London.

I think the restaurant has got complacent as they have so many people queueing up to eat here. We're locals who have enjoyed eating here before, but our experience wasn't great today. Having waited for a table on the street, we ordered as soon as we sat down. Our order didn't appear for over 30 minutes and when people who came after us were being served food we asked where our order was. We were told by the waitress that it was next in line and the kitchen was very busy, but when our food turned up, the food was cold. They were also accompanied the tiniest pieces of toast and a slither of butter. To their credit, they offered to make the food again and supposedly gave us a 15% discount on the bill.

Excellent breakfast/brunch in a lovely environment. Best of its kind on Northcote, I visit every time I’m in the area!

Lieu uniquement agréable seulement si vous avez un chien 🐕. Un brunch gâché par celui de la table d'à côté qui arrête pas d'aboyer. Sinon service au top. Même une gamelle d'eau pour l'aboyeur !👍

Very small portions and quite tasteless especially for a middle eastern restaurant. The falafels are way too oily and tasteless unfortunately and the hummus is also so far from tasty. Scrambled eggs were super basic too. Also there was no flexibility on swapping veggie side options.

With so much expectations about this place after a terrible and disappointing experience we had plus the table beside us, I’ll never ever go back again and do not recommend to anyone Food was off and smelly the service was bad and lack of common sense etc…

Very rude staff. After queueing for almost 30 minutes to get in and being given standard food with slow service, when we were given the bill, the waiter was hovering over us, I said ‘can we have a minute please?’ And he stormed off then and we discussing us with a waitress which I found extremely rude and unacceptable when we were settling an £80 breakfast bill! He sent over the female staff member to take our payment as he knew we saw him moaning about him which was cowardly of him! Honestly, don’t waste your time and be fooled by the queue! Go elsewhere! The couple on the table next to us also complained about their meal too.

One of our favourite places to eat. The shakshuka and kedgeree are great, and even the avocado on toast is much better than a simple dish has any right to be (they've added spices and some lime, i think). They are dog friendly inside and out. They have a strong coffee game, too. They are very busy on weekends unless you arrive at opening .

Cosy little place Delicious food and smoothies Great service

Popular neighbourhood brunch place with an interesting menu and friendly staff. Great for brunches.

Amazing banana bread. The French toast is to die for. Courgette fritters have super chunky onions in them but they are ok. Quesadillas are lovely. Good atmosphere and a bit of a wait for the food but it was well worth it.

We ordered 2 chicken and avo sandwiches which did not say were toasted on the menu. We were served a disgusting mound of lukewarm green ‘mush’ with horrible pieces of chicken on toasted sourdough. Having returned these as not as described and quite frankly awful, we chose 2 slices of walnut cake After a long wait when we tried to eat them found them hard and icy cold as if half frozen. Clearly we did not wish to risk eating these either. The whole experience was made worse by being asked to pay for half of what was inedible food

Lovely little brunch spot. Always very popular.

Tried this today for brunch and the food was so good! Filling and tasty, so I would come again. Pricing was fair too. The staff are welcoming and friendly. You can dine indoors or out. I didn't bring my dog but like many northcote eateries, you're pooch can visit as well. Only thing I'd say, it's small and quaint, which means if you're tall or a larger person, it might be tight for you but don't let that stop you...see this cute place for yourself 😊

I had my first experience at this cute little place today. The full English was too small a portion for my boyfriend as he eats a lot like a machina, but he said it was very tasty!! However, my mascarpone pancakes were more than enough for me, it was also very delicious, but there was too much mascarpone and not enough berries. The staff are great, it's the kind of place you want to go back to x

It's a nice dog friendly cafe. Staff and customers were very nice to my puppy when we went there.

Decent food, the place is quite small with lots of tables so it is bit pokey. There’s not really much space to move once you’ve sat down

Delicious chicken and avocado toastie. Super friendly staff too

Glad my sister took me there. Unusual breakfast all were sooooo delicious . 😋 Hope in the future bring my future hubby there.

Cozy cafe, lovely staff and delicious food! Will be coming back 😊

A Great brunch spot, fast and friendly service with delicious food - I had the Turkish Eggs. I will definitely be back again!

Lovely waitress & tasty full english.

No pude probar este lugar a pesar de estar ansioso por verlo. Me acabo de mudar a Clapham y quería descubrir los mejores lugares para el brunch. Cuando llegamos, me di cuenta de que estaban ocupados, eran las 10 de la mañana del sábado, así que lo suficientemente justo. Decía esperar a que nos sentaran, pero nadie salió y había algunas mesas vacías, así que finalmente decidimos sentarnos. 5 minutos después, una camarera se acercó y dijo 'se supone que debes esperar a que te sientes y hay una cola', señalando a un grupo de personas que acababan de llegar. Le dijimos que no había cola cuando llegamos y que habíamos esperado. Luego dijo 'bueno, debes levantarte y completar tus detalles para rastrear y rastrear'. Estoy bien con esto, pero fue la actitud, sin sonrisas, sin 'lo siento chicos pero. . . . 'simplemente diciéndonos lo que tenemos que hacer si queremos comer aquí. Entonces, en este punto, dije 'no me puedo molestar' y ella respondió 'bien'. . . que tengas un hermoso día 'en un tono sarcástico. No les importará, ya que estarán ocupados independientemente, pero fuimos por la carretera a Brew, donde fueron amables, sonrientes y tenían suficiente personal.

Me encanta este lugar, el personal es increíblemente amable y la comida es deliciosa. A menudo se llena, pero vale la pena esperar y hay una razón por la que todos hacen cola para una mesa, ¡ya que es tan buena! Hay un plato de brunch para todos los gustos, siempre tengo el brunch seco y luego, si hay algo de espacio, ¡sigo con los panqueques que son los mejores! ! La comida es de muy alta calidad y porciones decentes, ¡mucho avo en la tostada!

Parecía ocupado, así que decidimos hacer cola y tomar una mesa. El anfitrión fue realmente bueno y nos sentamos a los 10 minutos de espera.Pedimos algunos cafés y nuestro almuerzo de un excelente menú. El café era bueno, así como el zumo de naranja.Luego esperamos más de 40 minutos, el restaurante estaba muy lleno, lo que explica la espera. La comida llegó y estuvo buena (a pesar de que los huevos llegaron mucho más tarde que los otros platos). En el lado caro, pero los ingredientes eran de buena calidad.Volvería a visitar cuando no esté tan ocupado y lo recomendaría. ¿Habría sido útil saber que habría una espera para la comida ?.
