Melange in Haringey

My favourite Crouch End restaurant. Been coming for years and always met with a warm welcome. Lone diners, you are welcome here! I had the super salad with the grilled chicken add-on. A generous serving, the cauliflower crown underneath was beautifully cooked. Great flavours - a really great dish.

Enjoyed the seafood linguine which was very tasty, the service was very good and staff attentive. Enjoy a nice bottle of wine and sat back and relaxed. I thought the price was pretty reasonable and not over charged.

I had peanut squash risotto. It looked how it tasted. Awful. Creme brule. I felt embarrassed for the waitress who was very nice.

We were visiting for the week and ate here 3 times. Great menu. My 10 year old loved it but it was great for me as well. The seating was nice and loved the decor. The chairs by the front window was my favorite.

Nice food and service in a cosy setting.

Visited for the two course set menu as it was a very reasonable price. The duck main was incredible, really tasty. At first i was surprised it only came with a salad and it was extra to add on potatoes or chips but it ended up being filling enough on its own. And the creme brulee dessert was also very nice. Very quite with most other people just having coffees/working on laptops but we did visit early on a weeknight. Very friendly staff who kept checking on us and were lovely.

Delicious food, there is a good choice of starters and mains. Totally recommended

I liked it. The choice of food was excellent, for everyone sthg they could choose from and also with some veggie options. I was surprised. Could be more non alc. drinks but oh well. Service was nice and fast.

Always excellent service and wonderful food and wine - comfortable yet elegant - a lovely place to go with friends or just 121

Undeniably tasty but expensive for the portion sizes...

Great Italian restaurant, the food is fresh and delicious, we went for brunch, the super healthy bowl is so tasty, all the veggies perfectly cooked. The fish cake was also delicious and the fish stew is a really special dish. It's got a great atmosphere, quiet and cosy so you can have a conversation but still vibrant. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Also get the Bombolini dessert, it's a treat!

Really delicious food and great service.

Enjoyed a very delicious meal, enjoyed the Sea bream fillet with fennel bulb & gratin Dauphinois

We had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at Melange in Crouch End! From start to finish, it was a memorable evening filled with great food and excellent service. The service was top-notch, with the staff being attentive and friendly throughout the meal. They made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The food was nothing short of amazing. We started with refreshing drinks - lemonade and cranberry juice. For our main courses, we had a 10oz Rib-eye Steak with peppercorn sauce and French fries, Duck Breast with cherry liqueur sauce, and even something from the kids' menu - the chicken and chips. Each dish was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. The steak was tender and juicy, the duck was succulent, and the chicken and chips were a hit for the young buck. And the desserts! The Crème Brulee was great, the chocolate fondant was a chocoholic's dream served with velvety vanilla ice cream, and our absolute favourite, the Bomboloni filled with pistachio cream, was a delightful surprise that left us craving for more. Melange in Crouch End truly exceeded our expectations. It's the perfect place for a memorable dining experience, and I can't wait to go back and try more of their delicious offerings. If you're looking for great food and impeccable service, Melange is the place to be!

Great food and lovely staff were super helpful with our dietary requirements. Delicious gluten free options and dairy free options

Excellent food, reasonably priced, great service. Various options for starters and main courses, not many vegetarian options though. Mediterranean fish stew was 5 stars, steak that my family ordered – solid 4. An offer that night was two steaks and a bottle of house wine for somewhat 50 pounds, great deal and the wine was excellent. The atmosphere of the restaurant was great and we enjoyed our dinner.

Staff polite, friendly and helpful. The food menu had a variety too select from, to meet the group dining needs. Every one in this booking enjoyed there meal and wine. Perfect setting to talk and catchup with friends. A lovely evening enjoyed by all.

As usual, amazing experience. Food is better than even in Italy, waitrosses are very responsive, nice quite music and cozy design. Highly recommended. My favourites are healthy greend salad, steak and seafood linguine 😍 couldn't take a photo - you want to spend each second for a taste and not be distructed.

grilled prawns cooked perfectly, well done Chef 👩‍🍳 👍

Amazing restaurant, really delicious and full of tasty food.

Delicious food, friendly service.

I have lost count how many times we have been here, whether for breakfast or dinner (on this occasion dinner with family who were visiting) but the food hits the mark every time and the service is always super helpful and efficient! Thank you yet again! PS. The family loved it!

Absolutely outstanding. Cafe pricing with excellent quality. Try the Carbonara ! Friendly staff and quick.

A chic and modern fusion restaurant with an eclectic menu. The innovative flavor combinations were a delightful surprise in every dish. The contemporary design and impeccable service added to the overall dining experience.

The restaurant staff were friendly at attentive. Nice decor and atmosphere. Reasonable prices for cocktails and food. I dropped one star as my beef bourguignon was OK, but had some thick chunks of meat and some thin chewier slices.

We have walked past this restaurant so many times heading to usual places, so glad we decided to try somewhere new. The food here was lovely as was the service. It was such a relaxed atmosphere we will definitely be back for more.

Nice location with outdoor eating possibilities. We had a frugal seafood dinner just 2 courses plus a cocktail to start. Bill came to £85 which was a bit surprising. Sadly both came down with gripey tummies in the night.

We had a lovely meal at Melange when visiting family in Crouch End. It was incredibly warm the day we visited in late June, and unfortunately there didn’t appear to be any air con in the restaurant, but it was unseasonably hot so I wouldn’t want to criticise it for that. The food was excellent, especially the Mediterranean fish stew, even if it made me even warmer! We had a few of the sharing plates to start, which were all very good. The restaurant is well presented inside, and the staff were very friendly and efficient. I’m sure we’ll be eating here again in the future.

Airy, fresh interior and comfortable sunny outside seating. Brilliant service, which really made our dinner for 4 here so great. I had crispy hot salty white bait follow by the tuna niçoise which was perfection. Top spot: delicious and so friendly. We felt so well looked after.

Varied menu and delicious coffee

French? Italian? Yes, it is both! Excellent menu, first class friendly service and good value too.

Didn’t book as waiting for the rest of the family to arrive. Dada & Greta did welcome us and gave us the best seat in the house ,made us feel welcome and looked after us throughout. Food was amazing kitchen staff thank you 🙏,plates went back absolutely empty we loved it. Btl of Primitivo completed the 5stars treatment. Thank you guys and keep going. This place is an hidden gem 💎 in Crouch End !

Good customer service to make up for middling food. Went for dinner on 9th June 2023 with 2 family members. After a shared starter we had our mains. I ordered a sirloin steak, rare. Steak comes with chips and some rocket. My steak arrived, looking a little pale with dark grill marks - very much not my preferred way of cooking a steak, but so be it. Cut into the steak, thick grey band and a medium-rare interior, more medium around the edges (their 8oz sirloin is quite thin and not well trimmed). I have a few bites, it's not terrible but clearly not how I ordered it. I'm not going to send it back but make a mental note not to order it again/not to come back. Waitress comes to ask how our food is and a say it's fine but my steak is overcooked. She offers to have it replaced which I happily agree to, takes away the plate (leaving the chips for me to munch onl and returns a few minutes later with a fresh steak, fresh chips (hot and crispy) and fresh salad. The steak is still mediocre, with the undercooked surface you get from a grill pan and the uneven interior of direct heat with infrequent flipping, but it is rare in the middle and well seasoned. The waiting team can't help the fact that the food is tasty but nothing more, but did a good job to replace my dish without fuss. I just wish their steaks were a little better. Atmosphere is fine, nothing special, 3.5 stars, food likewise 3.5 stars.

That was an excellent and unusual breakfast. Chickpeas spinach fried egg and a small bowl of yogurt. Baked beans on the side, everything really super tasty!

Great ambience, excellent service, and an amazing selection of dishes.

Welcoming of our 6month old. Good wines at sensible prices and an interesting menu very well done. Good job.

The coffee was a little cold and I got a cake with it it was not cheap

Comida muito boa, mas porções muito pequenas para o preço. Viajantes (boa parte do público) costumam ter fome.

The restaurant was busy and vibrant. The staff were pleasant and helpful, but most of all, the food was delicious 😋

The service was really good. Food wise had the eggs royale, which felt a bit 'quick'. The coffee was really nice.

Le personnel est très sympa et attentionné.

Super soirée et repas excellent ! Salle très agréable, super service ! Thx you very much! For sure, I will come back!

Good food and good service! Helped accommodate our friend who is coeliac!!

Constantly tasty bistro fare in comfortable surroundings. Breakfast and set menus are good value. Friendly staff

Promoting BRUNCH but not having ANY LEFT when arriving after booking a table the day before would not recommend ridiculous that they can’t feed people booking for brunch exactly what their offering !!! Worst place in crouch end

The most delicious food I have ever tasted.

Lovely restaurant, the staff are always very nice and attentive immediately after you arrive. We always come here for breakfast because it's the best in Crouch End. I've been living in Crouch End for a few years and Melange is my favourite breakfast spot.

Such a lovely place! The food is amazing and staff are so welcoming. One of our favourite ones in the area 😊

Lunch for 2 in March. Veggie breakfast = delicious.

Service was exceptional. As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciated their knowledge and understanding. They have many gluten free options on the menu and they even offered to swap things around if necessary, plus the GF is shown on the menu which helps. ☺️

Good grub, well cooked. Good service, all round happy customer

Excellent service, friendly staff and absolutely delicious food! In particular the beef bourguignon was extremely delicious (according to my partner who is French!), the wine, starter (arancini) and tarte tatin dessert were also delicious. We will definitely be back! A hidden gem!!

We had a fantastic dinner here. Service was delightful and food was delicious. Recommend the salmon!

Ένα μικρό διαμαντακι στο crouch end Broadway. Εξαιρετικό πρωινό και η σοκολάτα επίσης. Ο καφές μέτριος και ο φυσικός πορτοκάλι πολύ ξινός. Ευγενικό το προσωπικό και πολύ εξυπηρετικό. Ωραίος χώρος με minimal διακόσμηση Το μόνο αρνητικό είναι ότι ζητήσαμε εμφιαλωμένο νερό και όταν ήρθε στο τραπέζι το είχαν ανοίξει ήδη το μπουκαλι. Θα προτειμουσα να το άνοιγαν μπροστά μας ή να μας το έφερναν κλειστό. Αξίζει να το επισκεφτείτε !

Great food. Still Love the chicken breast with mushroom sauce.

Popped in on a Saturday lunchtime for an impromptu bite to eat and dived into their breakfast menu - available until 1pm. Excellent full breakfast with an additional pot of yogurt and fruit. Very tasty and the staff were also very welcoming and attentive. We have eaten here several times over the years and never disappoints.

Very good brunch with lots of healthy options available as well. Loved the side goat cheese!

Disappointed by recent order. All the sauce from the seafood linguine on the bag. Take away containers changing has caused the issue as they don’t close properly

Always a delight to visit here. Food is consistently good and the service is exceptional. Very well located.

Amazing food & service, great venue - perfect local restaurant.

One of those places in London that managed to maintain good quality food and kept the prices decent and (almost) the same with pre-cost of living crises and pandemic losses Well done to you guys - keep like this and i ll keep coming back

I came here once because the place I wanted to go to wasn't open. The pasta isn't anything special and you don't get enough to be content, or at least my friend and I didn't. Overpriced regular quality with less quantity than usual is why I would never go back.

Perfect for lunch breaks, the food is very tasty and well presented, the staff is very nice and polite

Nice place, good wine, testy onions soup, fillet steak ok

Me and my best friend had not caught up in a while so to catch up here and be treated so well was the icing on the cake. Food was delicious. Baked Camembert ...to die for. But even better than the food and this is saying something was the incredible staff. Luca & Nada were the most attentive and smiling staff I have come across in a long time. Loved it, will be back so soon. Highly recommend. Casey & Sarah x

Slightly disappointed, mediocre wine and food. Poor service.

One of the best brunches I had! Having lived in the area for 4 years I have always walked past this place but never gone in. The interior is larger than it appears from the outside, with a modern decor and a few very comfy armchairs. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. We will definitely return and try them for dinner as well.

Brilliant cafe/ restaurant. Definitely the best breakfast in North London !

Service.here was diabolical . Fried eggs turned up at the table raw, they forgot ingredients in our breakfasts took half an hour to get an extra slice of toast, and service was slow and all over the place. Wouldn't go back for brunch. Ever

Atendimento simpático, a comida é digna de 5 estrelas: muito saborosa com temperos que me surpreenderam e boa opções de vinhos. Vou retornar!

Restaurante con una bonita decoración moderna y elegante. Situado en la zona Tottenham. Disponen de carta o menú(de dos platos) por 15'50£. Bebida a parte. Y por 3'95£ puedes elegir un postre de los que te ofrezca. En esta ocasión nos decantamos por una ensalada de queso de cabra y unas croquetas, de segundo, ñoquis y hamburguesa. Y de postre, tartin de manzana con helado. Todo buenísimo!!! Muy buena calidad-precio. Camarera agradable. 100% recomendable.

Great attentive service even though we were sat outside. Good twist on brunch food!

Great service, attention to kids, nice atmosphere and music, tasty food and cocktails, fair portions - what else to ask for. We will definitely come back :)

Fantastic food (every dish we ordered was perfect!), big portions, perfect service, very nice atmosphere 😍 definitely recommend, will return, thank you!

Cute little brunch place. The menu yas the classics, so just beware it’s not a super bug brunch menu. Prices are reasonable and attention is very good. Would definitely recommend :)

Superb food. Friendly staff. Good ambience

We had a nice lunch at Melange. Food was good, cocktails and drinks selection was impressive, service from Caroline was spot on. Total bill was a little more than expected, however it was a very enjoyable meal

Ils ont oubliés mon plat et du coup le reste du groupe a manger froid .

Food was good but staff were awful. One of our meals didn’t show up, they didn’t apologise, just said it was coming, it turned up when the rest were nearly finished eating. Then they tried to charge us for set menu plus dessert rather than the set menu including dessert (as we didn't have a starter). They had the cheek to add the service to bill after. Not impressed.

Great seafood linguine, great service.

The food was delicious, the waiting time was optimal, the staff members were friendly and professional. We loved the vibe of the place and the atmosphere was perfect for a Friday night out. The place was buzzing with people yet it was a relaxed environment with French music in the background which made the place feel even more authentic.

The spaghetti with seafood is stunningly good.

Really nice ceasar salad for a reasonable price given quality Quirky decor Nice staff Good coffee Awesome spot

Negatives- The Manager was Unprofessional, Wrong and had a Cheap attitude regarding the spritzers- On the menu it says EVERYDAY 3-6pm £6.50... we got there and ordered 1 spritzer each at 5.30pm and nothing more and yet we were charged full price because 'our receipt was printed after 6pm' when we got our food bill at 7pm... pretty disgraceful melange!! Positives- the waitress who served us was lovely and polite. My steak was great. The calamari was lovely. HOWEVER, My partners 'Pollo Con Funghi' was drenched in salt (the chicken breast i think) and was inedible as a result- surely it is not usually like that?? The potatoes and mushrooms were nice though.

Espectacular relación calidad precio..

Generous portions, so their veggie breakfast came piled high on the plate. Lovely fresh-tasting ingredients full of flavour, reminded me of eating in Italy! Sat outside on a sunny day, bossa nova music, friendly staff who let us stay at our table long after we’d finished eating. Recommended.

Had a lovely brunch here, plentiful portions with fresh tasty ingredients coupled with attentive and friendly service. The design of the restaurant was lovely and quaint inside. Price is a notch above average but perfectly worth it.

I came to melange and I was greeted by this amazing, stunning and attentive girl named Alexandra. I was indecisive about what cocktail I should get and she was very helpful in taking her time with me trying to decide via process of elimination. Fantastic girl and would definitely come back, great service all round. P.s she deserves a pay rise. No cap! Also the cocktail she made me was out of this world 🤤🤤🤤

Some of the best food and service I have ever had! Absolutely amazing.

I’ve here at least 6 times and the restaurant never disappoint me, I love the food and the stuff is very kind and polite! The decoration is nice and prices are great as well Thanks

Went here for husbands birthday. Disappointing!! Very very casual. Not really a restaurant more a cafe. Spent over £100 and had a total of 3 crackers with our cheese board. Asked for more crackers and charged. Poor!!!!

My partner and I went there for a light lunch and decided to choose the chicory salad with some cheese. It was extremely well presented but consisted of 95% chicory leaves and 5% cheese (perhaps Roquefort or something similar), nothing else.. and costed around £15 each. Absolutely bland and tasteless and massively overpriced. I can't believe that whoever prepared that salad had any qualifications as a chef.. I will not get back there.

Definitely recommend! Friendly service, amazing food

Very nice and very big breakfasts. The waitress was exceptionally nice and the service was excellent.

Everything we eat was fantastic. Highly recoment GARLIK BRED! I dont know the name, but fish was amazing, souce was so good! Pasta with sea food was so good too.

amazing food, amazing service will be coming again :)

We visited the restaurant with two small children and we were all very excited about the food and service, so we came back again in next days. They prepared dishes for us, even though we were very late. We will definitely be back, you are great, the fish stew is wonderful !

Delicious food, super friendly staff, and great atmosphere!
