The Apple Blue Patisserie in Wandsworth

Golden milk drink was a success, but waited more than 20 mins for eggs royale and disappointed as yolks not oozing, muffin nice, smoked salmon small in portion. Could see other diners as at biig table, all were the same eggs cooked over.

Incredibly friendly staff, great service and delicious cakes & coffee. My new go to study spot. . Plus great playlist!!

6.5/10 overall. Slow cooked lamb 7.5/10 Turkish eggs with ghee and added smoked salmon 7.5/10 Avocado and eggs and added smoked salmon 9.5/10 The smoked salmon sides were tiny considering they’re £4 each, poor value, the mains were good value and good portions. The coffee is highly recommended. Waited 30 mins outside to get a table. Once we ordered the food took 35 mins to come which was disappointing. The food was great when we finally got it. Service was slow and lacklustre. Location good close to station, but the inside is so small - only about 8 tables so the wait is long. ~£47 for 3 people, no drinks.

Ich war mit ein paar Kollegen und Freunden hier frühstücken. Eine 10 von 10! Die Schlange vor der Tür spricht für sich. Das Personal ist wahnsinnig freundlich und es hat wahnsinnig gut geschmeckt. Wenn man Kaffee lieferbarer ist, wird man sich einen oder zwei mehr bestellen müssen, da die Tassen doch recht klein sind. Für mich kein Grund eine schlechtere Bewertung zu geben, nur ein Hinweis :)

This is an absolute must for lunch when you are in the area. The place doesn't look particularly exciting, but the food is interesting and delicious, with sensible prices. I really enjoyed the Shawarma.

Apple Blue is severely lacking any form of management and as a result all the staff appear to be left to their own devices with little to no direction. Unfortunately this results in long waiting times for food; which by the time it arrives is fairly underwhelming. The chef / pot wash rather strangely spent his whole time just staring at the guests from the kitchen; which probably doesn’t help with the above. Unless he’s employed to fulfil some form of quota I would suggest his time is better spent making food. Apple Blue has potential to be a really nice brunch destination but until they address some of the basics of running a restaurant I wouldn’t recommend; save yourself an hour and go elsewhere.

I'm not one to leave negative reviews, and have had lovely brunch at the Apple Blue in the past. But I just had quite a negative experience recently. The food I had for lunch was their chicken sandwich, which came burnt, covered in a sweet mayonnaise, with barely any chicken in it. It was just a disappointing meal considering the price point was something like £8/£9 for a sandwich. Additionally, the cafe was really quiet, with just a couple of people sat. I waited for 20 minutes for someone to take my order, but no one came. I took myself up to the counter to order, and was just looked at as so strange by the staff. Overall, I was just really disappointed, as I've had fine service, and great food here in the past. I wonder if it's just better to come for breakfast!

Great secluded spot next to the bridge. Very good coffee and pastries on offer. Nice seating area outside if sunny. Great speciality coffee vibe.

Have had several lovely brunches at the Apple Blue. Eggs cooked perfectly, top quality salmon and sausages. Really tasty cheesy hash 😋 The pastries are super tasty too, as well as the drinks. 5 stars all round ❤

Delicious food, friendly staff and great atmosphere! Had the smoked salmon for brunch and would highly recommend. A real gem of a find in Balham

Had my first ever trip here after a friend recommended it! Great staff, shout out to Sadia and Ryan! They were friendly and on point and food so worth the money!

Lovely cafe near Balham station . Lots of interesting choices on menu . Went for the vegan tofu & paneer shakshuska . Nice ice coffees too !

Always have a good experience here, the lamb dish is amazing and the coffee is good. Also like that they do a loyalty card

Wow the dirty chai is so good would definitely recommend. Shawarma was delicious, fried chicken on a Yorkshire was nice but a bit plain - the batter could have done with some spices.

amazing food, especially the avo! staff are so lovely and friendly. also the best iced coffee in balham! would absolutely recommend to friends :)

Amazing food, we had brunch over here delicious crispy chicken and pancakes and the best burrito/shawarma with tangy pomegranate seeds.very friendly staff always welcoming.

My friend and I ordered a matcha latte from this place and they were awful. They didn’t taste of anything and we all had to throw ours away. Not to mention they were so expensive. They clearly use terrible matcha quality. Not impressed at all.

Might look small but it is mighty. Excellent little place. Very friendly staff. Good range on the brunch menu. Excellent portions. Highly recommend - nearly across from the tube station on the High Street.

New to the area and I've been trying out all the coffee shops in search of the best flat white (because that's my go to coffee) and I'm certain I found it here! Thanks for the amazing coffee, I'll definitely be back for more :)

I wanted to review this rather lovely place for a while now, I never quite got down for it until today ! A delightful French Patisserie, located in the heart of Balham which is a feast of taste sensations for the hearty pallet. This place...

The carrot and spiced apple cake and banana bread here is to die for. They also make an amazing chai latte and golden milk. The staff here are lovely as well. I really like that they partake in toogoodtogo.

My sister and I often eat here and it’s fab. The food is interesting and delicious. The staff are lovely and there is always a cake to tempt you. Best place in Balham.

Had the dutch pancakes and chicken with a coffee. Easily the best brunch i’ve had in a long time, plus always super friendly and coffee is always on point.

Exceptional coffee and really nice people, the perfect venue for some brunch and catch-up with friends

Their cakes are unbeatable. Lovely staff too. Great place to order cakes from for birthdays or events but you’ll need to order well in advance.

Visited the Apple Blue Patisserie today to meet a friend and collect my birthday cakes.... What a delightful place....had a special yummy vegan pastie, the pastry was deliciously baked and left you with the flavoir of home made freshly baked shortbread with a smooth melt...

Patissier Sahdia just has a way with flavours. I'm coeliac and not able to eat most of the items, but I love coming in and pouring over the new combinations her brilliant mind comes up with while I eat a beautiful macaron or gluten free...

Been here a couple of times now and always greeted with a big smile no matter who is behind the counter. The almond croissant is probably the best in London and the coffee is great.

I visited with a group of friends for brunch and standing waiting for a table looking at the other guests food was enough to get the taste buds going ! Everything not only looked fabulous but tasted amazing too . No doubt we could not...

I have bought pastries twice now from this lovely bakery in Balham to take home. The pastries have been delicious, exceptional quality and so artistic (it was a shame to eat them). It is difficult for us to recommend a favourite pastry, the macaroon was...

Friendly staff and OK coffee. Never open on time though. Tried the pan au chocolat which was inedible and seemed to be several days old

Awesome food great quality the salmon and egg was absolutely delicious was one of the best breakfast I have ever had and the toilets are very good too

This is probably my favourite coffee shop in London. Possibly in the world. Pastries to die for, really really good coffee, and lovely lovely people! They recently started doing brunch on weekends and it's fantastic - tastier, more interesting and more reasonably priced than anywhere...

located in the dodgy part of balham on the other side of the bridge, lots of noisy schoolkids and lurkers outside. the interior itself is horrible, a hipster attempt at little nick nacks and things, silly the staff are no very good the coffee was...

Went here yesterday for a quick takeaway breakfast and coffee. The staff were very lovely and the cakes they had on display were incredible! My family order two coffees and two teas along with four croissants which were delightful and the coffee incredible! Could not...

Incredible cakes and pastries and excellent coffee. An air-conditioned oasis in Balham. Great service highly recommended.

Nice to have a nearby shop selling delicious cakes, amongst other goodies...and gluten free, etc., are available.

I was staying at the travelodge opposite and noticed this well hidden patisserie on our arrival at the hotel. I’m so glad I bothered to cross the busy road. We were welcomed by happy and helpful staff. They listened to my likes and pointed me...

Almost under the dark arches this place belies its location as it is light, bright and like Balham full of new ideas and good food. Great coffee, croissant and a grand line in home prepared and very well executed patisseries. It deserves to do well...
