A go-to brunch spot; definitely worth the hype! The staff were a bit inattentive, but it was a busy weekend brunch. All items ordered were well prepared and tasty; the brown butter hollandaise is divine. Coffee was good too, just a bit pricey.

I’m writing this review with a huge disappointment I used to really like this place the food was really good back when the betty dish was with spinach! Now it’s so taste less with ridiculous amount of butter my mom had the mushroom egg dish it’s like they used 100g of butter for this dish alone halloumi was 1% halloumi 99% oil 👎🏻 how ever there cookie was 10/10

Burnt black toast is the standard I was told by a staff member when my order arrived from their brunch selection. And a staff member tried to convince this the way it was made. I had to say it was carcinogenic which she ignored and she talked over me and kept telling me about the sauce etc trying to convince me to keep the meal. Then I had to say very directly to her to get my point across, that I have a toddler and I would not serve her blackened toast. Finally, she agreed to change the order. It was really unacceptable. I wouldn't come back. I felt like I was being gaslit. Trendy place and location helps with the foot fall. But hard pass for me.

I had the pleasure of going to Milk Cafe Bedford Hill. The staff are lovely sand their chef is super creative. The setting is very nice and with perfect weather sitting on the terrace was ideal. I had Gochugaru eggs, iced latte and an almond croissant. The eggs were DELICIOUS and inspired me to aim to return to try all of the other dishes 😋 The almond croissant was equally inspirational, YUM. The iced latte not so much. Very little ice and it had that sour taste that I encounter from time to time and always wonder what makes it sour. I read it’s bcz the espresso might not be packed tight enough and therefore not enough water flows through…… I’m no Coffee expert but I know when a coffee falls flat. I noticed a lot of people drinking a small glass of some coffee drink that I think had some sweetener and cream in it. I heard positive reviews m, I’m not sure it was on the menu. I’ll ask next time. Thanks Milk, it was a pleasure! PS next time I’m trying that corn bread!

I love their coffee, vibe and homemade condiments you can buy. My first time trying their food and such a disappointment 😥 the Millie had overpowering and contradictory flavours - super strong chutney, then chilli, plus intense sweet pickled beets, you could not taste the smashed avocado which should be the hero of the dish.

I don’t leave many reviews but I was overwhelmed with the service at Milk when I visited with my husband and our 1 year old and 4 year old on Saturday morning. The staff were unbelievable. So warm and friendly, could not do more for us. They were so welcoming to us and our children. We arrived around 10.30am and after only 5 minutes, were seated on a nice table in the sunshine. By 11am, the queue was huge so I’d recommend arriving a bit earlier if you don’t want to wait. The service was just amazing. All staff were so kind and smiley and just made the brunch such a lovely experience. We ordered coffees and the granola and sweet corn fritters (pictured). Coffee and food were 10/10. My 1 year old knocked over half my iced coffee and a really lovely lady that worked there (Rachael) just couldn’t be more helpful, providing us with napkins and even brought me a brand new coffee. I honestly couldn’t believe it. The staff were incredible. 100% recommend!!! Thank you staff at Milk. There aren’t many like you!

Milk is a bit of a Balham institution. Really good, inventive brunch food with a big focus on coffee (the origin of the days espresso blend is placed in front of every customer). Weekends mean queues down Hildreth Street for a table. For me, one of the best brunch spots in the whole of London.

Sunday brunch at 10am, we only had a 20 min wait (it is much quicker to be seated if you're just two people). Had the smoked salmon on toast which was tasty, and tried the banana bread.

Food OK, quite pricey. One of our party has an aversion to butter and asked if muffin was buttered (the waitress didn’t know). We asked to ensure it was not buttered. The muffin came out buttered. Asked to switch the muffin on the dish to an alternative (eg bread) and was told that was impossible. Waitress suggested a solution to rebuild the dish with individual items at a higher cost. Would suggest being less rigid around your service, especially if your waitress has made a mistake. Milk did comp the individuals coffee and side but they still went hungry and we ended up in the greggs round the corner.

Somehow extremely popular. You will almost certainly have to queue for a table. The food was fine but extremely expensive for what it is. Coffee was average but not worth nearly £4 for a cup of filter. We were not given glasses for water until we asked. When these were provided, one was dirty. The cutlery on the table was also dirty.

My friend and I went there today because we wanted to try the famous pancakes! We arrived around 12:30 and had to queue for 40 minutes aprox. When we finally got the table, the waitress said that the pancakes were run out. We were surprised takinng into account that those are only available during weekends, and that wasn't so late. We ended up having the fish sando and the banana bread. Both were amazing! The place is quite small and noisy. Unfortunately, it was a bit rainy, so some of the tables outside were empty. We will need to go back to try the pancakes!

If you find yourself in Balham, a cozy neighborhood in London, and you're craving an exceptional cafe experience, then Milk is your go-to destination. This local favorite has earned its rave reviews, and I, like many, am a devoted fan. Every Saturday morning, I make it a point to arrive by 9 a.m. to beat the queues—and it's well worth the effort. Milk's charm lies not only in its inviting ambiance but also in its extraordinary menu. The pastries and pancakes are a treat, each bursting with flavor and crafted to perfection. But the true star of the show is the 'Convict'—a renowned dish that has been a staple on the menu since the cafe's inception. Additionally, their homemade kombucha and the coffee are exceptional, each brew reflecting the cafe’s commitment to quality and flavor. The staff's passion for quality and their warm, welcoming service enhance the experience, ensuring every visit is as enjoyable as the last. Milk has become more than just a cafe to me; it's a Saturday ritual, a place where the week's stresses are soothed away by great food and even better company. For anyone in Balham or visiting London, Milk is a must-visit. It’s more than just a cafe; it’s a cornerstone of the community where every dish and drink is made with care, and every visit feels like coming home. Trust me, you’ll want to become a regular.

Exceptional savoury food with lots of flavour served quickly (after queuing for the table!) The flat white was extracted well, but was unironically a bit milky. The pancake had many interesting and exciting flavours, but was unfortunately overshadowed with how sweet it was. If it had been a little less sweet I think the flavours would have come through and made for an excellent dish. The biggest put off was with how loud the music was, which was pounding drum and bass. Unsure who wants to hear this on a Sunday morning, and I wonder whether it's played to encourage customer turnover. Some excellent dishes and coffee, but let down by the atmosphere. I'd go again, but wouldn't queue for it! (And maybe pick a warmer day and sit outside!)

Good brunch, overly busy but the food and dishes are above average. The specials can be experimental (I like that the chefs have that freedom) but the pancake special we got had components that were like biting into a sweetener tablet. Not well balanced and quite overwhelming. The service is great and the convict is a good breakfast. Nice morning out, nothing to write home about. They should also move the queue to down the road, we just had a line people gawping at us eating outside and it was quite uncomfortable. They could easily do the end of the queue by the tree and have the queue go a more well thought out route.

First in at 8am, but they weren’t sure if they were open yet….. Seen all the great reviews, but a disappointing first visit. First off, the latte was barely warm - was told this is the way they serve them, asked for it to be hot, 2nd attempt was a little better, but still warm. Really tasty coffee though. Had the corn fritters with halloumi and avocado, with 2x added poached eggs. It’s quite a wet dish, so just means that everything gets really mushy, fast. Also served in a metal dish rather than a plate, so the wet parchment paper at the bottom is pretty hard to eat off. Tasty, but just needs served on a plate with the sauce in a bowl on the side so that it doesn’t immediately all go soggy. Also tried the corn bread - it’s fine. Nice honey on the side. All came to just under £28. Expensive, but fine if the presentation was better and the restaurant wasn’t freezing cold. That probably didn’t help their lukewarm coffee service.

They only have one main dish which is vegan and it's a little disappointing in flavour. However, our server, Libby, was very helpful and suggested some side dishes (I went for pumpkin, mushrooms and hash browns) which were really delicious. She also added a sauce - amazingly tasty. Would be great to have more vegan options,l as well as label vegan items more clearly and improve the taste of the vegan main dish.

The mains were nice but honestly, they look better than they taste. The sides, not worth it at all. The cheese on the hash browns adds no value other than it looks nice. The roasted pumpkin was inedible- dry, wrong texture, wrong spices. Tiny pots of overpriced tea. Very cold inside as the doors were always open.

Brilliant food and service! The fish sando was delicous. Its the catch of the day, so it can change, but the sea bream was cripsy without being oily and well-seasoned. The french toast has sadly been replaced by the sticky toffee loaf, but it was so soft and delicous that all is forgiven. The billie smoothie was refeshing and a generous serving (i had drank some b4 taking the picture) Will definitely come back.

The food was really tasty, but unfortunately a lot of struggles seemed to transpire whilst we were there. Our coffee order "went missing" and it took 30-40 minutes before we all got them, after which my lactose intolerant friend was told they may have given her the wrong coffee. We also got charged for the wrong order and had to wait to repay, but that isn't really an issue. It was mostly the oddly long wait for coffee which was then mixed up... It was fairly busy. Maybe one day we'll try again when it's less so.

Very pushy considering it wasn’t even a busy time - 10am on a Monday! At the end once we paid she asked us to leave as there was “quite a queue” of people waiting …it was just a couple standing outside and it wasn’t extreme weather such as heavy rain or freezing cold. The only good thing was the coffee, but that was largely overshadowed by the pushy wait staff. Take your money and time elsewhere and give it to another local coffee shop in Balham.

The food was ok. Nothing that will make you say wow. The coffee was bad though.

As soon as you finish eating they’ll start asking you want anything else, they’ll bring the bill even if you didn’t ask for it, then look at you. Finally they actually came and ask how long were we staying as they need the table! So make sure to eat quickly and then leave asap! Not very polite! Also the choice of croissants is very sad: just plain or chocolate, no pancakes…also pretty uncomfortable chairs! Not going back!

Food was delicious. We got the fish sando, banana bread and hash browns. All 3 items were excellent, service was good. Ordered a flat white, which was nice but a bit weak considering it’s supposed to be 2 shots. It’s definitely loud in there and seating isn’t the most comfortable. We waited around 35-40 mins to get a table.

We were driving especially for this reputational shop to try their famous food and coffee as described. The shop was full as expected. Looking for bakery options, the available options were minimum, and croissants were overbaked and did not look fresh at all. Now regards the coffee: I ordered a capuchino with oaty milk and my friend a normal capuchino. One of the guys brought the coffee to me and said, (Late with oaty milk)... I mentioned to the guy that I ordered a capuchino with oaty milk, and he replied (oh, it's the same) with a big smile... and gave me the coffee... Just to inform the lovely people there, late/capuchino/espresso and etc are all different coffees... customers are not idiots as you believe... Finally, both coffees had very bad sour taste, were almost cold and both dropped to the bin outside the shop. Outcome: completely disappointed!!!

The food is great. However they do not take bookings. I waited 20+ min outside. After that they took my order fast which I appreciate, but I needed to wait 20+ min for my food to arrive. I’m not sure why people are considering this as a normal service. The restaurant has a tiny kitchen that cannot service all the tables during peak time and on top of that are taking takeaway deliveries.

Had a gorgeous afternoon with delicious food at the Duke of Cambridge. The pie and all of its accompaniments were insanely good, and service from Nelson & Dorian was excellent (thanks for the treats for Nala, our pup, too!). Can’t believe I’ve lived in the area for 14 years and have never been here before! Will definitely be back!

Went on a Saturday night, had the tuna tartare for starter and then had food poisoning the next day. I called the restaurant and they said ‘this never happens’ and put the phone down! We are local and know the place well. Would be wary of what you eat.

Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, though the staff were lacking in minor ways. Not doing things they said they would (ie. extra toddler bed), putting hand soap instead of shampoo, apathetic demeanor in the front staff. Nothing terrible, just not necessarily warm and inviting.

My friends planned a baby shower here in a private room, which was really lovely. The food was okay. Two people had the carbonara, which they both said was very nice. The service was good and friendly staff.

Not sure why this place is not rated higher. It was excellent food and they were open late on a Sunday. An easy walk into Wandsworth Town from the Holiday Inn Express.
