Spoonful in Richmond upon Thames

Spoonful is one of our favourite places, anywhere! The food is delicious and there are always interesting, high-quality items available (meats, cheeses, produce, various condiments, pastries, sweets, wine, pastas, etc.) We go for breakfast (try the tartine or the French toast!), lunch (try the panini!), and dinner (try a big platter of meat and cheese with a bottle of wine!). It's a place full of passion for food and drink. Most recently, we chose Spoonful to cater some pre-dinner platters for our wedding, and it was even more amazing than we expected. Our guests were thrilled, we were thrilled, and we'll always remember the food when we think of that special day.

Simply put the most arrogant , rude , patronising and discriminatory person I ever met . If you would Like to be treated unfairly then this is the place to go.

Overpriced French products/brands, Very rude Man (Although the ladies were very helpful & kind). I was treated poorly & left crying shocked unfortunately. Nothing like Barnes standards!

we were visiting the London Wetland Centre and this was a nice neighbourhood deli we wanted to check. There is great French Italian food with friendly staff

A super place which does amazing breakfasts/brunches, try eggs benedict or florentine or the tartine breakfast. Superbly cooked by owner Fabrice or one of his staff. There are also some nice cooked dishes and salads. A very good variety. And.. they even take old fashioned cash, and even £50 pound notes! Well done, it is a great local to enjoy.

Stopped in to get hot chocolate and pastries to take away. Everything was delicious and good value, and we were made very welcome while we waited. Will be heading back next time I'm nearby!

having been recommended as one of the best sandwiches in town, we decided to pop in for lunch..... ordered a Panini and a tea - staff were amazing, accommodating and friendly..... my friend was 1/2 way through her panini when she proceeded to pull a 5cm long hair out of her sandwich....! As the shop had customers in, I politely took the uneaten 1/2 sandwich back to the counter and called the waiter to the side to point out this hair so no one else would see..... i said, Ill leave this with you..... So from then the clock ticks as to how they are going to sort this out ..... nobody came to us to apologise or anything of the sort.... When I went to pay, I asked what am I paying for as was not sure.... the waiter called the owner and he briskly rang up a few items and said £12.80, to which I repeated what am I paying for.....referring to the sandwich with the hair which one would assume would be removed from the bill as we never ate it! He replied - I am only charging you for 1/2 sandwich(the half you ate) and the other half with the hair he will not charge for..... I wanted nothing for free - a simple sorry sir would have sufficed... Still nothing.... They tried to say it was the hair from the sponge - indignant that this was actually a gross health and safety faux pas..... don't think Ill be rushing back anytime soon...

Delightful The Eggs Benedict served up by the owner and chef in non-lockdown times has been much commented on elsewhere, but I can second that in spades. He was happy to be flexible and serve this with bacon and not ham for me and his hollandaise is to die for. Brilliant variety of texture and sumptuous eggs. Worth a visit just for this. Do be aware of course that this is a deli-cum-cafe with only 5 small soft-wood vanished tables inside even, in non-Covid times. The ambience can be secluded and calm and I have worked on my laptop here for hours in past, but it is also a thriving deli / coffee shop particularly now Hammersmith Bridge has closed so people come for the fresh basil, chives, courgettes, local breads, artisan chocolates and the wonderfully decadent chocolate almond croissants. In this way it is bustling with middle-aged cyclists stopping off on their routes past Putney and Chiswick and Richmond; local Thames path walkers tempted in by the closed pathway and families and local kids with their grandparents and parents. Authentically French as others have said and French is often the language heard if you pop in and out between customers and owner - warm, huge variety of speciality foods for such small place and organic Rieslings and Malbecs galore - if you want wine and you are local v much worth going here. Warm and friendly service, though in busiest of times one should not be surprised if this can become gruff or moody or short.

Le patron est a l'écoute , serviable, et trés bon cuisinier. Une belle gamme de produits francais a deguster. Idéal pour les francais q qui manque la France

Have visited a few times and always find that the service is friendly and helpful, the selection is very nice and the food is delicious. Only complaint - not enough seating when with friends (inside the cafe or outside)

Sponfull is a delightful place for breakfast. France in London. Everything here is authentic French. Great food and Great service. a few tables on the sidewalk for good weather and seating for about 10 inside. Everything is to order. Eggs Benedict is my favourite. Great Coffee, friendly at home service.

Pop in to this little unassuming café. But as soon as I stepped it felt like I was in France. Good tunes and continental atmosphere. My choice of breakfast/brunch is always Egg Benedict and I strive to find the best. Well what can I say, home made hollandaise sauce, made with the finest butter and proper cured ham...just delicious.

A bit of France 🇫🇷 in your dishes, the breakfast is very nice and also his wine list is superb!!!!

Located in North Barnes this restaurant has a good catchment area. Coffee is good and they try hard with the food.

Popped in for a quick breakfast. I expected a nice eggs Benedict, but result was better than expected. Definitely recommended.

It is always a pleasure to go back to Spoonful, find some great quality products, enjoy a coffee and conversation. I have been a fan for years.

Loved this small cafe. We had breakfast here several times while visiting family. Eggs Benedict was wonderful as was the rest of meals we got. Our host ordered quiches from Spoonful for a evening meal, and they were fantastic!! Coffee is also very good.

Esta es una hermosa cafetería francesa en Barnes, en una zona sólo con algunas tiendas muy cerca del pintoresco puente de Hammersmith.Recomendaría el equivalente francés para el desayuno inglés con algunos salchichas francesas.También los huevos benedictinos son deliciosos.El propietario es un hombre muy amable que goza francesa su trabajo y lo que hace.Un poco de sabor de Francia en una zona pro europeos:)

Hemos ido a cucharada desde que abrió y haciéndolo en (al menos) dos veces de la semana. Este es un auténtico café / delicatessen con un propietario acogedor (Fabrice) que asegura las comidas son excelentes y recién preparados. Las tortillas son correctamente preparado, las ensaladas no más vestidos y las ocasionales especiales se ocupaban en casa para la cena! Los huevos benedict ya se han comentado mucho... qué es lo que no gusta! El comedor es pequeño (acogedora!) pero todo el mundo es flexible, así que esto nunca es un problema. Hay una amplia selección de ingredientes franceses para comprar y selecciona los vinos mismo Fabrice así todos son muy apetecible... Sugiero que visiten pronto!

Me encanta el huevo Royale. Las yemas de huevo eran perfectamente crudos. El salmón ahumado, tenía una buena calidad. Mientras que la magdalenas eran tan encaja perfectamente caliente. Para la ensalada, me permitió construir mi propio. Por cierto, el pan fermentado era tan agradable, servido con ensalada.

He conocido cucharada ya que es abrir así que posiblemente se podría decir que estoy un poco imparcial. También he notado que algunas malas críticas aquí que mi objetivo de compensación; como cualquier negocio hay buenos días y días malos. Y después de todos estos años, cucharada no es sólo va fuerte pero fortalecimiento.

オーガニック食品をメインで扱うお店ですが、店内でもコーヒー、ワインと一緒にスナック、パン、ケーキ、クッキー、チーズなどを楽しめます。美味しいバゲットが食べたい時はここがおすすめです。

Mi novio y yo vinimos aquí para el desayuno hace un mes o así después de haber hecho un poco de investigación en lugares que eran buenos para el desayuno.

We visited this cafe when we were walking between Hammersmith Station and the Red Lion at Barnes. We only had coffee but it was excellent coffee. This is a nice little cafe and shop. If we had not been going to the rugby we would have bought some of their stock as they had some very nice stuff.

We have out breakfast at spoonful once a week in average. All the egg dishes are great, especially the scrambled eggs with salmon. The seating might not be perfect but the food is. If you are around in the morning then pay the place a visit for breakfast, you wouldn't regret it.

A friend who live in Barnes, told me about this place. Last may, me and my partner stopped by and have bought french delicacies since then on a regular visit. Try the unpasteurised cheese selection, coffee is a must!!

Absolutely The best food in the area. What I find in Spoonful is a good service and a lovely atmosphere, my fabourite meal is Lasagna or Tartiflette, and eggs royale served with fine fresh Hollandaise sauce, I'm alwais have a brunch in this place with friends,have Bites food with a glass of wine, or even have a nice cofee.

Stale food, salty salads etc - hardly gourmet.The most ARROGANT and RUDEST staff you will ever encounter, and the owner seems to endorse such behaviour. Visited a number of times to give them the opportunity to redeem themselves, if only to have their cheap wine (the one good point, and the staff couldn't tamper with it).There is more atmosphere in an undertaker's office. The "mood" is the moody staff.Nowadays, always empty when I walk by, as previously loyal customers have deserted in droves and now enjoy the better quality and value venues in the area, of which there are many.Sad to see small businesses fail, but in this case, it was self imposed.

A little local French ( North African) deli that could be good but isn't. The number of times that I've bought stale pastries here is too many. Why oh why has muggins gone back? Never ever again!

This cafe has an authentic European feel and a friendly French owner, with the best Omlettes in the world cooked to perfection with molten emmental. Breakfasts are served all day with generous portions extremely good value The coffees are spot on. Today I sampled the eggs benedict which was finer than any I have even had in The USA the hollandaise sauce was hot and buttery with a real home cooked feel . All food here is unique made with finest freshest French ingredients and. They also have introduced me to the finest flavoured matcha green teas which are a rare find. Not missed a Sunday brunch here in months :)

This is a real gem and i regularly eat here or buy their delicious food and wine to take home. The owner is a delight and so enthusiastic and helpful. People must try the confit duck and the lovely yoghurts to name but some of my favourites

Love this place great good / coffee and personalised service. Best Omelet / Baguettes in town.Try it: don't be put off by the scruffy exterior.

Spoonful is a super place which manages to do and be several things at the same time. They do a lot of takeaway business with freshly made sandwiches - any combination - and terrific bread. They also sell bread, some cheese and salamis etc. If you're lucky and get one of the tables, there is a long menu of sandwiches, omelettes, substantial snacks like Eggs Benedict and two or three hot dishes of the day, for example a risotto. Smiling and efficient service, and no-one hurries you out. The coffee is excellent as befits an Italian owned place, and my plan is to go back there for lunch very soon.
