Mud in Wandsworth

A great brunch spot with friendly service. Really enjoyed the banana bread!

Great breakfast the chorizo hash was fab

This place used to be great pre-covid, but it is now awful. The food used to be lovely, but it has taken a turn & is no longer as good. I've seen the staff going into the local Tesco to get ingredients, so you may as well just eat at home. What is even worse is the standard of service now. It takes ages to be served if you sit in, but the staff are extremely unprofessional and rude which makes it quite an unpleasant experience. Upon sitting in on a recent visit, a young lad and a dark haired girl were laughing to each other about personal matters, and when I looked over at them he stated 'the customer is listening'. I went this morning for a coffee, and it opens at 8 - so I stood outside for 5 minutes at 8 whilst they opened up. They had opened the doors, so I asked if we could get a takeaway coffee. But the same dark haired member of staff seemed very annoyed, and snapped at me to 'just give her a minute'. Anyway I walked off, and will never go back - you may as well try Juliet's which is across the road & much nicer!

Best brunch in Tooting by a mile! Everything is so delicious - corn fritter stack, wild mushrooms, ginger croquettes. Chilled atmosphere and great coffee

I came here as the reviews looked good and I hadn’t had a flat white in so long. Was really gutted that the flat white I got served was pretty much a latte and didn’t taste good at all. Really gutted but won’t be returning

A lovely atmosphere, friendly service, great food and coffee - definitely check it out!

Regular here as it has great food and lovely coffee but the place is never open on time and some of the staff are moody as and take ages.

Great food as always. Chilled environment and dog friendly. 5 stars!

I went there in September. The food was amazing and Service was very friendly!

Maybe just off their game before Xmas. Food quite poor, toast stale, none of the poached eggs over 3 breakfasts were soft. And the door kept blowing open - needs fixing.

Always a lovely breakfast at Mud. We have been coming here for years and it’s consistently yummy. Wise to arrive before midday.

Tasty food, big selection of brunch options, friendly staff, cosy place. What else to ask for? Highly recommended.

A staple brunch spot in Tooting with a great chilled atmosphere perfect for any occasion. I had the ‘great British breakfast’ which was honestly okay, but nothing great and a bit cold. My friend had the plantain and gunner benny which she said was bit tasteless. Food did also take quite a while. However I have regularly visited this cafe and service is always very warm and friendly so may be worth a visit depending on what you’re after.

This place is called Mud because it's what it feels like you're stuck in when you're queueing. Staff are friendly and food is good quality, but table management and actually sitting people down to eat the nice food needs desperate improvement. Witnessed 2 people being sat on a table that seats 6 over a waiting party of 4, just an example of a couple of weird decisions of where to sit people. Would be a really great place with better seating management.

The food was IMPECCABLE. I had the ginger croquettes and salmon and a shared side of wild mushrooms. The main had the perfect amount of burn from the scotch bonnets, eggs were perfectly cooked, the croquettes were crunchy and delicious, just pure joy. BUT the stand out for me were the wild mushrooms. Oh. My. God. To die for. The best mushrooms I've ever had, ever. I'd go back just to eat a massive bowl of mushrooms. The end. In terms of atmosphere, the back door was open and it was freezing AF. So whilst the food was banging, I had my coat on the whole time. Not the best vibe. There was a distinct lack of vegetarian options which is sad.

This place has massively gone downhill. Inattentive, miserable, staff, the menu seems to have shoved bacon on every single dish rendering them both veggie unfriendly and more expensive.

Been coming here for years and love the place so no complaints on food. But please please Owner…turn on your extractor fan, come out smelling like I cooked the food myself every time. Please x

A very popular spot for brunch in Tooting, offering many sweet and savoury options. The fact that it's been there for about seven years shows that it's a successful crowd pleaser. The corn fritter stack goes down as my favourite, but Turkish eggs is a close second. The Gianduja pancakes are a bit sweet.

Great place, lovely food, friendly service.

This was our favourite go to brunch spot in Tooting, but after our experience today I’m not sure if I would go back for awhile. Though I have to say the service is always warm and welcoming. It was a Tuesday lunch with only 2 other tables our food took a little while to arrive. And I’m not sure if it’s just our luck or they just don’t serve the whole menu on a weekday, we found a few of the items not available. The food itself, we felt really dropped in standards. Both the Wild mushroom and Welsh madam was heavily salted and it was a struggle to finish it all. We’ve had brunch during the weekend here when it was much busier and the food was delicious. Hopefully they do look into the reviews on here and do something about it.

Gorgeous food, very friendly staff. Absolutely amazing place. Highly recommend

Atmosphere is nice but food is too salty. It's a shame because it is presented nicely and uses nice ingredients but I cannot say I enjoyed the meal. Disappointing for the price point.

Lovely place located in a good atmosphere. Best foods and great Coffee / Tea. You go there once, you will feek like visiting again

Used to love it here, but every time I go these days I find the staff seem not to want to be there or are just inexperienced. Food and coffee still good but the last time I was there it was like the extractor fan wasn’t working and I came out smelling of fried food. Also the Wi-Fi never seems to work.

My favourite coffee place with homie atmosphere and good music. Staff is always kind and the food is just amazing 🤩 Only thing to get ready for is open kitchen which means your clothes will smell like a food once you come out 😅

The BEST brunch in all of London. Hands. Down. I've been coming to Mud for 6 years and even dream about their Wild Mushrooms. It's my usual go-to, however, whenever I venture out for something else, it's always amazing - their Corn Fritters, The Garden, any of the Pancakes... the Plaintain nuggets are all insane taste explotions in the mouth too. I can't get over how good this place is. Their iced mocha is also always incredibly refreshing and tasty. Thank you to the whole team for feeding me over the years, through pregnancy + now motherhood, when getting good quality food and a tasty meal is essential... and the best part of the day!

New updated brunch menu pulls out all the stops and is still remains one of the best cafes in Tooting! UPDATE: Unfortunately, I have to amend my previous review due to poor service on busy weekend periods. Obviously weekends are busy times but it seems there's a lack of communication & general organisation between the waiters who are clearly rushing around but not thinking it through. We were told due to orders stacking up that we need to wait 15mins to order food which I agreed was fair enough. However, our waiter didn't tell this to his colleagues who continued to take food orders which meant we got our food substantially later than people who arrived 20mins later! We also tried to give our orders to another waiter after seeing this; who didn't write it down and forgot. So after giving our order several times we ended up waiting an hour before we got our food! This has happened my last 3 weekend visits so I feel I need to mention it now that with a bit more management things could run more smoothly. Also in the week I've tried to grab a breakfast before commuting to work as it says on Google that they're open at 8am but last few times they werent open until 9am so please amend your times. Your food is great so please work on these few things as I want to continue supporting you as a local business.

You pay a high price point for poor quality food and bad coffee served by staff that really don’t care to be there. Dismal experience

Amazing food with super generous portions! Corn fritters and pancakes are super super yummy. Service staff were very attentive despite it being a full house.

Really really sorry to report that we had a terrible experience today at Mud. I lived in Tooting for the past 8 years and used to come here often. Today, together with three friends, we went there for brunch and sat at the table outside, at the front of the shop. Nobody came to serve us until we called them, twice. They came to take the order, the coffees arrived after almost 30 minutes, after the food. They were served one by one rather than all on a tray in one go. Food arrived without cutlery. We asked for it, and they brought it out and literally chucked it on the table. We asked for napkins, they took ONE out for a table of four. My friend found a hair on her plate and sent the whole plate back, without asking to remake it. At that point we were not impressed AT ALL with the service. After almost 30 minutes that the food was served, a waiter came out asking if all was ok. I said the coffees tasted terrible (we had two out of four left in the cups, not drinkable). He laughed and got offended telling me ‘oh that’s a nice comment’. At that point I lost it. I asked to speak to a manager in charge, to get told ‘come inside’. After ten minutes, nobody came out, my friend went in to explain that we were not happy with the service and the waiter’s attitude at all. Really sad to report that I will never go back to this place. It’s a shame because the food is actually good but the attitude were all totally wrong and service shockingly bad!

My prefered local eaterie..Charming owner,fab Chef and food, engaging & attentive Young staff,what more is there to say?Other than,keep Up your standards ladies & guys...nuff said..KD 'X'

Excellent! Just visit, the food the vibe, the staff/service- just simply excellent!

First visit coffee was good and i had the Mud muffin which was great too.

Consistently delicious brunch here. Have eaten many times and never had a bad meal. Very friendly and lovely staff, very accommodating even when we bring a pram and baby. My favourite is the mud muffin, and my wife has recently been having the plantain Benedict which she says is sublime. In summer the garden at the back is lovely.

Pretty standard tea and coffee will go back to try the food. Wasn't nice that the wheelie bins had to be taken through the restaurant in the middle of service, bit stinky especially as we then had to endure the back door being open for alittle while, which was very cold.

I enjoyed my visit here, nice place with friendly staff, we had a coffe and a hot chocolate and they were quite good, great place to have a drink with friends or family, will be trying the food next time as it also looks great 😊

Great food and a good amount for the price in comparison to Juliets down the road which charge similar if not more but present you with one piece of bread.The chilli jam is yummy and the bacon and salmon were good quality. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because they didn't have any pancakes on the day or any plantain for the plantain croquettes, both of which we planned to order. I mean you could literally walk down the road in tooting and get plantain so I didn't understand why??

Alternative brunch, not what you would make at home, so a nice mix up. Great portion size too.

Having been very excited to visit after following their Instagram for a while, it was a bit disappointing. Had the pancakes and a iced caramel latte. The coffee was fine but the pancakes, could barely eat just one! They were incredibly dense, crumbly and almost stale. Toppings were fine but needed a lot more cream just to make the pancakes palatable. Avoid pancakes.

Lovely cafe and friendly staff, very cosy and Welcoming the brunch was Tasty too! Would definitely recommend!

Visited for a latte which was fine but also used the loo which wasn't. It hadn't been cleaned properly and to make matters worse a shared towel to dry hands. Not acceptable at any time let alone during the covid pandemic.

Lovely food and Drink at a reasonable price with kind and thoughtful staff; will definitely be back!

He tenido la intención de venir a Mud por algún tiempo ya que había escuchado tantas buenas críticas al respecto. Desafortunadamente, me quedé insatisfecho después de mi visita.El café en sí era increíblemente ahumado, sin duda el resultado de la cocina abierta. Pedí los buñuelos de maíz que cuando llegaron estaban completamente empapados en la salsa de chile, eliminando cualquier otro sabor. Los buñuelos mismos eran enormes y bastante enfermizos. No pude probar el huevo escalfado en la parte superior, nuevamente debido a la salsa de chile. El Avo aplastado fue promedio en el mejor de los casos.En el lado positivo, el personal era amable.Es una pena pero no volveré. . . Cortar la mostaza cerca es muy superior.

Had high expectations after reading reviews and hype however the brunch muffin i had was rather disappointing. £10.50 for a standard breakfast muffin- the kind you would buy from supermarket, they forgot the brown sauce that was on the menu and the potato waffles sounded nice until i realised they were the frozen ones rather than homemade. It was just not enjoyable. I am all for paying this price for a homemade breakfast with sourdough or crusty breakfast bun however this was so underwhelming and ridiculously overpriced for the quality of food. I would not return unfortunately!

Alright food, overpriced and had to wait about 30-40 minutes for poached eggs and avocado on toast. It wasn’t exactly the busiest either. Won’t visit again as in my opinion the food and service wasn’t worth the price tag.

The staff at the counter were very friendly and welcoming. However, this café is over-priced. Given the amount of amazing restaurants and eateries in Tooting, serving generously-priced, delicious food, it was quite a surprise seeing menu items such as eggs on toast being priced at nearly £10. When we did order our food, it took an extraordinarily long time to arrive. We must have waiting a good 25 minutes or more for what are, essentially, incredibly quick and simple dishes -- avocado on toast, corn fritters and turkish eggs. The trouble with having an open kitchen is that customers can see how slowly the chefs are working. I will say that the food, when it did arrive, looked impressive. My two friends enjoyed their food, but my corn fritters were disappointing. Corn fritters are naturally sweet, so I was sad to see and taste that they had been drenched in a saccharine red sauce. The sweetness of the corn and the sauce together made the dish sickly sweet, and I couldn't finish it. I have worked in hospitality before, and I know that sometimes delays are inevitable. I saw that on that day, the front-of-house staff were struggling with a faulty coffee machine, for example. However, I don't see how this could have delayed our orders so significantly, especially as the café was quiet. Overall, I left feeling as though I hadn't gotten anywhere near my money's worth.

Good neighbourhood joint with decent coffee and well presented food. Was very busy when arrived but thinned out fast so was nice and quiet as we left. Friendly enough staff. A good Tooting staple.

Nice place, cosy and private very friendly people, food was great. Highly recommend

Delicious food and Good coffe! I'll definitely come back there in the future

I had an excellent brownies cake with black coffee One of my best experiences

I love my cafes and I have to say, this is probably by far the best in SW. Good service and the food was great. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and will visit again.

Fantastic cafe in Tooting worth a visit our waitress Perisha displayed outstanding and memorable customer service making one of the best cappuccinos I have had

I'd heard about this place from a few friends telling me I just had to try the breakfast here. My first thoughts were surely it's just toasts and eggs and I was sure my mates were exaggerating, but behold, I have to bite my tongue because they proved me Wrong! This was probably the best breakfast I've eaten in a long time. So flavoursome! I ordered the Mud Muffin because it looked like great value for money from the menu alone and it is. Being a lover of smoked salmon, I had to request for some on the side and the salmon was beautiful. I was truly impressed by what I ate and I had to savour each bite. Everything was fresh and flavorful and the eggs were so tasty. I was completely satisfied with my meal and feel I have found my new Sunday brunch spot. I might have to fight to get a table but the food is absolutely worth it. The staff were also amazing and prompt with my order and I found the venue to be quirky and cosy. I really enjoyed the vibe but most of all, I really enjoyed the food. I'm not a food critic but it was 10 out of 10.

As someone relatively familiar to tooting Mud definitely is a beautiful addition to the locale. The food and produce used was very fresh and the service was warm and accommodating.

MUD! Tut tut tut, I was doing so well with this waistline until I got into the Mud Muffin breakfast meal. Staff were super friendly and very accommodating to my specific dietary needs. This is my new spot. Ill definitely be back in my favourite little corner for more.

Impresionante pequeño brunch en Tooting. Batí las colas y conseguí una mesa en muy poco tiempo. El personal era súper amable y atento (jóvenes hipsters pero no del tipo molesto!). Opté por los huevos turcos y un batido, ¡ambos deliciosos! Mi única queja es que no están abiertos por las tardes (¿todavía?). Definitivamente regresaré.

Esperé más de media hora. El desayuno (champiñones y huevos escalfados) no tenía sabor y los huevos estaban listos y tibios. La presentación carecía de delicadeza y, en general, fue una decepción. No volveremos

Good Aussie style brunch place. Good pastries too. The constantly ‘broken’ card machine is a pain though and means I often go elsewhere.

Hoy visité el barro porque llevo meses queriendo irme y me quedan diez días en Inglaterra. Fui con mi amigo en un "día de verano" de mierda y estaba hambriento!

Nice varied menu, with friendly staff. The coffee is always excellent. The food can be a bit hit and miss depending on which day/time you come and how busy it is. But mostly it's very good.

Had the most delicious breakfast recently at this lovely cafe sitting in the sun in the tiny garden at the back. Totally amazing pancakes - just perfect. Only issue was the drain by my table that hadn’t been cleared!

Nice cosy brunch place. Gets crowded on weekends so expect to wait for a bit. Food was lovely and so was the fresh juice. A bit pricy for a place in Tooting though.

I had an amazing brunch in this little cafe in Tooting, London! It was so worth the visit! The staff were lovely and the food was amazing! Totally recommended it!!! I will go back there to try some other dishes for sure!

Amazing staff, very delicious food and coffee!

This is my new favourite brunch place in Tooting- the wild mushroom breakfast and pancakes are incredible, staff are friendly but did have to wait a long time for the food to arrive.

Solía ser mi lugar favorito hasta que fui allí el sábado 12 de enero de 2019 y ¡me di cuenta de que el Manu ha cambiado! ! !

Desayuné aquí el sábado y fui por el Mud Muffin, que parecía ser el elemento "distintivo" en el menú del desayuno. ¡GRAN ERROR! El muffin era de mala calidad al igual que los waffles de patata. La empanada de salchichas y el tocino eran ligeramente mejores, pero en general el Mud Muffin era bastante horrible y debería evitarse. Con un precio de casi 11, tendría que decir que no tenía valor para el dinero. Así que mientras el ambiente general del lugar era bastante bueno. . . . La calidad de la comida en sí misma es razón suficiente para dar a este lugar un amplio espacio.

El barro fue una vez el negocio. No sé si se ha cambiado de propietario, administración, perspectiva existencial, pero ha caído en serio.

Highly recommend the Huevos Rancheros and Potato Waffles!

I love this place! I had a very tasteful eggs and a nice service. So glad I’m living very close to this place :)

I went outside of lunchtime so it wasn't busy at all. What I did get though was some excellent Eggs Benedict (served on veggie pattie, not muffin) with crispy bacon. Best I've had in a very long time.

We were seated outside in the garden and noticed a dead rat right next to our table. We told the waitress and the response we got was: “oh sorry the pest man will come tonight”. Terrible service and rubbish everywhere in the garden area.

Sat outside at back waiting twenty minutes to get a table inside. Too busy and so service was slow. Pancake was completely overcooked so it was a dry cake instead. Bacon burnt to a crisp. Reheated suasages had obviously been cooked multiple times. Staff were pleasant enough but overstretched. Coffee took 15 minutes to arrive. Won't go back .... Not even up to greasy-spoon standard. Table dirty...

Visited MUD as I'd seen a few people go there and wanted to try it out.

Still a good place to go, standards dropping a bit since the owners have diversified to Croydon and now a pub in Wales.

I'm genuinely shocked by all the positive reviews.

Great little café in Tooting. We had the smashed avocado and the wild mushroom & sausage breakfasts. Wonderful service and amazing food.

They didn't serve any butter with our toast, then made a big deal about getting butter from the supermarket just for us. There were other moments of strange passive aggressive waitressing from the lady (I think she had a Kiwi accent). Overall the food was not good enough to compensate for the bizarre service received, won't come back.

Este lugar es siempre bueno. Hemos estado varias veces y el personal es muy amable. La comida es excelente.

He ido a el barrio y mi nueva constituís me llevó allí!

I went for the first time in about 10 months and it just wasn't what it used to be. The service was awkward at best, including lifting my plate away whilst I was still eating (and I'm a quick eater!) The food - Mud Muffin - arrived suspiciously quickly and was not good; deep fried Birdseye-style waffles, stale supermarket muffin and salty, tepid meat. The orange juice tasted very cheap despite being served in a funky jam jar. I hope it improves again because it's a great addition to Tooting.

Queuing most weekends so prefer weekday visits. Good produce and cooked to order so can take time. Coffee served immediately so is either finished or cold by the time the food arrives. I now ask for it once the food has landed. NOT a 'greasy spoon' so expect deservedly higher prices. Recommended.

Fantastic brunch with extremely welcoming staff. Our order was delivered very quickly and a warm smile. Servings are large, yet plate lickingly good. Juices lip smacking, and are packed full of flavour. Definately a place to visit.

A hidden gem in tooting... MUD does a tasty healthy brunch and the best ‘mud-ding’ coffee south of the Thames (or the whole of London). Can’t help but have two or three cuppas on every visit!

Me llevaron para el desayuno en barro para mi cumpleaños este año (27 de abril) un servicio fabuloso, la comida fabulosa, muy acogedor y un personal amable que nos cuidaron y hizo la experiencia aún mejor. El café también es un lugar muy agradable y acogedor para comer.

I visited Mud with my friend, it had different things on the menu to your typical brunch menu. My friend had the corn fritters and I had the mushroom dish (pictured). The portions are great and so is the coffee!

Tuvimos un par de magdalenas de barro y café. El pan estaba frío y seco, el tocino y las salchichas patty estaba quemada y seca, y la salsa marrón a un dedo pasty el tamaño de penny. . Y seco. Fue una cosa realmente triste loveless en una bandeja poncy metal que ninguna cantidad de virutas de parmesano (? ! ) podría elevar.

Really nice place to eat. The price is normal for London and the food was enough to make you feel full. I would highly recommend it. Unfortunately I was to hungry and I didn't take a picture

Tuve una cena agradable, aunque cada vez que voy a barro ahora que parece que están constantemente probando para llegar y salir tan rápido como sea posible - no es el ambiente ideal para el brunch.

Nous aimons petit déjeuner à l’extérieur et Mud à quelques rues de la maison est une parfaite adresse pour ca!

Great food and coffee if you're lucky enough to get a table

Friendly place where to have a good brunch. A bit too expensive.

Nice local restaurant very good brunch served beautifully

I started in kitchen can honestly say its a very laid back place lovely staff great atmosphere and food is excellent id highly reccomend this place

Experiencia mixta aquí. Punto positivo: la comida es buena y buena relación calidad-precio. Lado Negativo: el personal se han vuelto muy altiva desde nuestra última visita; por ejemplo no nos dejaban movernos a una mesa de distancia de la puerta, que tenía una corriente fría y uno de nuestro grupo estaba enfermo, incluso cuando otro posible: porque les toma mucho tiempo. Me dijeron que era incapaz de una Virgen María, lo que es extraño para un lugar brunch. Su sistema de pago electrónico es extraño: queríamos poner en una tarjeta de 40 libras y 20 libras en otro, y nos dijeron que era imposible, que solo aceptan tarjetas si el importe es el mismo en cada tarjeta, o si les dices exactamente de qué elementos cada persona tenía. Wc no es muy higiénico.

Delicious food coffee and tea! Great service too

Cold poached eggs, under-seasoned smashed avocado, bitter coffee, unremarkable service. Sat at the back, and somehow there was a draft

Service was exceptional, brunch delicious, coffee almost addictive!

I visit Mud a lot and keep going back because I genuinely think the food is very good. Particularly good are their eggs and sausages, very tasty. The poached eggs are always very well eggsecuted (ha, eggscuse the pun). My personal go to dishes are the avocado on toast with feta and the wild mushroom special - also really like the breakfast burrito thing but that's better for a very late brunch! Possibly ever so slightly overpriced but it's London and you find it all over the city. Staff always friendly.

Really tasty brunch with lots of options. Coffee was also lovely. Staff really happy and friendly. Consistently recommend to anyone in the area!
