Had lunch today here and the food was amazing and staff were so friendly. We had the croque madam, French toast and eggs royale - couldn’t fault any of it. Good atmosphere aswell. I’ll be back !!

Great breakfast place. Although it was a touch cold inside. Food was tasty! The breakfast reminded me of the kind of breakfasts I get at home in Australia which was nice considering I haven’t been home since 2019. Staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful!

£14 for hard cold pancakes and overcooked bacon with a drop of maple syrup. Menu was misleading as it said £10.50 and then there was a hidden charge for the bacon and maple syrup? Coffee was okay. No options for milk alternatives. Overall very unhappy. Servers were very friendly though.

Food was good. Took a long time to arrive but was worth the wait. Staff were attentive and friendly. Music was great - louder than you’d expect from a typical food spot but the vibes were great. Coffee is better than average. We’ll definitely be back with friends, but probably wouldn’t recommend to my grandparents.

My understanding is that a host is supposed to maximise business for the restaurant. We walked in for a table for 2, no booking (our first mistake) but a table in front of us were quickly seated. As we waited a friendly waitress passed by, smiled and acknowledged us, all great so far. There were a few tables we could see who were more than half way through their food and a few empty tables too. When the ‘host’ came over, a taller, slim girl with dark hair, we asked for a table for 2. She quickly checked and then told us ‘sorry we don’t have anything’. No estimated wait time or if we wanted to come back or book for later. Pretty rubbish first impression from one employees bad attitude.

I was in this afternoon on the 11th of December . i ordered a oat milk hot chocolate when the waiter recommended i change it to coconut . the hot chocolate was too sweet for me and i asked for an Americano instead . i did not drink the hot chocolate . when we got the bill the hot chocolate was still on there . my friend went to ask and the girl waiter informed us that even though i did not drink it and did not enjoy it , i have to be charged for it cause it was made and they’ll get in trouble with the owners ? It was a bit weird . I really didn’t enjoy it . My friends recommended it but I will not be going back . The service was really bad . Its a shame I didn’t get to try the food because my friends were raving about the food .

Cute little place for breakfast, brunch and lunch. We both ordered steak frites and it was delicious! Although we struggled a bit with the proportion of the fries, it did not affect the quality and quantity of the steak. Great price too!

We were recommended to go here for breakfast but we were very disappointed. Poor service, dirty toilets and very small portions. I ordered poached eggs on toast. One tiny piece of toast came and 1 egg with a withered piece of something green on the side. It was dreadful. My 2 friends order was equally bad. Found the place dreary too. The member of staff didn’t care that we didn’t like our food. Will never return.

Called in when passing to see if they had a table, which they did! We were given a table at the back of the restaurant which was good. We ordered drinks and food. Unfortunately, the server didn’t note down our order and when our drinks arrived they were wrong (full fat coke and wrong flavour San Pellegrino) not a big issue but when you’ve asked for Diet Coke because you’re calorie counting you expect to receive it. The food was nice steak frites and the Chicken bacon and egg burger. The food was delicious. We forgot to ask for the steak medium/well done so asked if it could be cooked more and the staff were very accommodating.

Really poor all round. Sunday morning at 10.30am they had already ‘run out’ of half of the items on the menu. The staff are rude, unfriendly and had to take our order twice after they lost the first one. When our food arrived, it wasn’t quite right as per our order-we ate it anyway-it was fine but nothing to write home about. The place feels dirty and toilets are absolutely disgusting. And a lot of noise from behind the bar (coffee machine, endless ‘clinking’ of cutlery/crockery). Not an enjoyable brunch at all.

Booked in advance. Great space and very hip and near Central town and stockbridge so you can market after. The menu had plenty good veggie and vegan options! I ate the delicious nuttella and fruit waffle and it was unreal. The staff were polite and the place was clean. Reasonably priced and would visit again :)

My fiancé and I had heard lots of good reviews about The Brunch Club and was looking forward to going. Today we finally got the chance to go on one of our few days off together and we were very disappointed. When we arrived, despite booking a table we were told that it was closing in half an hour, which we were unaware prior to arriving as none of their social media platforms have been updated. We ordered two fried chicken and waffles, which seemed to arrive very quickly considering it was chicken being cooked. We started eating the food and noticed straightaway it was cold. Also, the waffle wasn’t cooked properly and the chicken tasted awful with a rubbery texture. When we made the waitress aware of this, she apologised saying it was a new chef and took the food away to get it replaced. Another two plates of the same choice arrived very quickly again, which was also awful again. We made the waitress aware of this again and she apologised with the offer of a free meal on our next visit. Safe to say we will not be taking up this offer.

Gibt sich als Restaurant. Wir saßen draußen mit anderen Gästen. Der Tisch klebte stellenweise noch etwas. Das hätte uns zu denken geben müssen. Nachdem sich nach 10 Minuten niemand vom Service blicken ließ, ging ich rein an die Theke. Ja, bestellen kann man hier oder online vom Tisch aus mit QR-code. Steht nirgends. Also am Tresen bestellt. Es dauerte 50 Minuten für "fast food". Alles etwas klebrig, keiner hat gefragt, ob man noch etwas trinken möchte. Fish u Chips waren naja, Burger war ok. Insgesamt so gar nicht unser Ding.
