Wetherspoon's East Grinstead in Mid Sussex

Nice atmosphere, ok food! Good coffee. We ordered 3 main dishes but we liked the 1 mostly. The chilli poached eggs was really good. We will visit again of course!

It's really delicious. I would visit again 100%. The chili eggs are really delicious.

Food was really tasty. Bread was cut a tad too thick, would have been nicer slightly more toasted. Otherwise very nice and portion size was large. Very nice poached eggs. Service was ok. No speed in anyone and it wasn't busy.

Really nice place with good service. We ordered chilli poached eggs, but for us it wasn’t enough as for breakfast. My friend also ordered halloumi and banana bread, but I was hungry in two hours

Lovely, lovely staff, food pretty good, lovely selection on the menu (remember to have a phone handy for the QE code) Only gripe- man alive the pot washing station was so loud my ears were ringing by the end. It’s like the staff were literally throwing it from a metre into the sink!!! Perhaps a little throight for your customers? I’ll be back none the less.

Awesome, creative, and delicious food! Very friendly staff too.

I’ve been here loads of times now and figured I’d leave the fiver since it’s never missed for me. The menu rotates except for the buns and maybe a few others but jesus is everything always incredible. People have been nice when I’ve been here but I’m always here on slower hours during the week. You can work during the slow week hours and the place is cool with it. There’s indoor and outdoor seating, really great natural light inside, coffee and coffee options have been better than average as well. They also grow some of their veg on the roof here and the neighboring building, would be cool to get to see more of that but I’d guess if you sent an email and had like a project they’d take you up there.

Always a great option for brunch. Really nice garden! The food is great and different not just eggs and the typical things. Ncie helpful staff as well. The crab egg dish was absolutely amazing. Chili eggs also delicious

Hosted several people here.. they all loved it. Super friendly and helpful team. A real 5 star experience throughout. Thank you!

Amazing gluten free bread, food and staff! Highly recommend it. The dishes always surprise me

Amazing! The Yorkshire puddings are HUGE

fantastic service and good food

Wow, wow, wow! To be greeted at the front by a ball of sunshine in glasses and a snazzy jacket, and then served by Ella, our wonderful waitress, topped off with the incredible food! Wow is an understatement.

If you’re looking for charming service, sensational food and an atmosphere that can’t be beat, look no further than Brunswick East. Shout to the person at the front with the glasses (sorry I didn’t catch your name) and our lovely waitress Ella. Thank you, thank you, thank you. A meal to remember.

This is my favourite brunch place in London. The food is phenomenal and has a great ethos behind it - seasonal, sustainable, joyful... A couple of dishes on the menu change regularly because of this so there's always something new to try which eeps me going back. A treat each time to visit and share with loved ones. Book in advance if you can (for a weekend at least), as this place is very popular. Getting a dish each would cost about £15-20 per person, and with drinks/desert would push it up to £20-£30 per person. Thank you Brunswick East team and especially your incredible chefs!

The chilli poached eggs is Brunswick East’s magnum opus, masterpiece, chef d’oeuvre, piece de resistance. Other dishes are available but it’s all that I want when I go. Good coffee too and a sweet courtyard when the weather is nice or it’s not the depths of winter.

You guys are awesome and immaculate vibes but please fix your coffee, it tasted like it was brewed in a used ashtray ❤️

A delicious and interesting brunch menu. Good sized portions of dishes you might not expect to see for brunch, but definitely worth it. The okonomiyaki was fantastic.

great service great food!!! book ahead to be safe :) we got the chili butter eggs (every single table had this and the two people next to us got one each…) and the crab folded egg thing, both were so good🌟🌟🌟

Nice location food and atmosphere. Hipster yuppie haunts usually exist for a reason and this is no exception fantastic pastures and coffee. Lovely waitress that I think is normally a chef brought a lovely atmosphere chatting to everyone with great energy!

Amazing cafe with amazing food! The amount of love that they pour into their food is truly shown! The plating is beyond beautiful! We need more cafes like this in London!

Amazing brunch with great options! Simone has been lovely and we felt like home

My favourite brunch in the area! The Japanese pancake and chilli eggs are so amazing!

Had an absolutely beautiful brunch at Brunswick east. You can tell there is a lot of love put into every aspect of this place from the home grown produce to the selection of coffees and sweet treats. The staff & owner could not have done more to make our meal more enjoyable. 5* all the way 🤤

Appreciate what they're going for, but 14.5 for just eggs and an extra 4.5 for bacon... Gentrification hurts 🥲

Food is good. Doesn’t take cash. Service is slow. Had to ask for bill 6 times

Excellent coffee to take away if needed.

Great brunch spot! Definitely recommend booking in advance as people were turned away while we were waiting to be seated. Their chili poached eggs were amazing with the house sourdough. I also loved the atmosphere and didn’t feel rushed by staff.

Food is epic here. The Aussie crayfish omelette was soooo good! Love all the brunch dishes. The service does let them down though. You don’t get many smiles and they seem to have a weird approach to table allocation which isn’t very welcoming (asking people to move after they’ve been seated etc). I still go back again and again for the food but if you’re someone wanting a friendly spot and genuine conversation with the waiting staff you might want to look elsewhere.

General atmosphere is nice but we were quite rudely asked to leave immediately after paying our bill due to back to back bookings - not very relaxed, especially after having waited a long time for food on a busy Sunday morning

The food here is really good. But I found the coffee disappointing given it's billed as being run by Australians. And the interior space wasn't that nice to be in. Worth trying and lots of interesting food on the menu but I probably wouldn't come back.

The place is nice, especially if the sun is out and you can enjoy the patio setting. Food, coffee and fresh juice were good too!

amazing hidden brunch spot 🍽️🍳🍵 recommend booking in advance as it gets busy on weekends, walk ins accepted but can be up to an hour wait, there’s indoor & outdoor seating. service could be better esp upon entering! definitely try the chili poached eggs, so tasty 😍matcha isn’t the best but passable, would love to come here again and try other things on the menu overall one of my favourite brunch spots in London 👍🏻

Food good but overpriced. Had the prawn smorresbrod (£18) which unfortunately wasn’t as good as the picture of it on Instagram (6 small prawns on the same kind of sliced rye bread I buy in a packet from my grocery store). Menu proudly says they don’t add service charge, which is true on the bill, but when paying by card there’s an ‘optional’ service charge. So it’s kind of the same thing. I’ve been here several times and generally think it’s very good. It’s a shame this last visit was underwhelming.

Walking in and was greeted by friendly staff and the service was spot on, it’s a shame the men’s toilets weren’t up to the same standards as the staff and manger on at the time

I had the Japanese pancake which was great. The latte was ok. The menu is pricey for the items listed. It was quite busy but managed to get a table.

Wanted a break from my walking around East Grinstead before heading off to football. Knew there was a Wetherspoons here but could not remember where, eventually found it hidden away off the main drag. One of the nicer "Spoons" outlets with cheerful staff. Sat and had a nice pint at very cheap prices. Only drawback it was Saturday morning and it seemed like the whole local council estate had moved in, dozens of kids running around with no adult supervision, too busy yaking and playing with phones for that, the kids were screaming upsetting other customers without any of the staff asking them to behave Would consider not returning here during the daytime

If you’re looking for unique food that’ll blow your mind, I highly recommend their tasting menus. The service and atmosphere is exceptional! In their even days they have some live music playing and it adds to ambient and makes for a lovely evening. The manager is very attentive and friendly, and definitely knows how to treat customers. Some of the nicest meals I’ve ever had have been from here so definitely give it a try :)

Best brunch in town! Amazing 10/10 food, brilliant service and super welcoming atmosphere

One of the better "Spoons" pubs. A decent choice of real ales at very reasonable prices. The food is also reasonable value but nothing special. A good place to stop if you are passing through the town.

Just a special place. The set up here is exactly what you want in a third wave coffee shop. Smashing selection of bakery items, strong theme and environment. The coffee is second to none as well. Easily top 5 in Easy London. Smooth, flavoursome and strong. An easy 8.6 flat white.

Great servers, made sure we were comfortable on an extra hot day. Thank you

My breakfast was great - the host with the glasses was amazing and made my morning.

We were staying in East Grinstead and have this facilities for breakfast and lunches dinners all weekend and the food was good well cooked and very helpful staff as it was father's day and euros football and they were very efficient and thanks a lot great service

A quiet little nook just off the Stoke Newington road, with seasonal menus, interesting combination of ingredients and dishes, and friendly staff. When the weather is good, sit outside

Best eggs on toast in North East, amazing!!The space has wholesome vibes 💞

My first visit I found the dishes very oily. 2nd visit, I liked it more. I had the seasonal eggs on toast and I told them to not put any additional oil on top and it was very nice. Also the chilli eggs on toast seemed very yummy and quite a big portion

The food is always exceptional. The cakes are delicious and the brunch menu is experimental and balanced at the same time. Service is good but can be slow some times. Ambience is good.

Dave and Rhianna cooked the best food. You can't beat the price, quality and delivery time of this Weatherspoons. 10 Star 🌟

One of my fave spots for brunch although can sometimes be hard to get a table but worth the wait

Some of the best Coffee in East London

Always love the atmosphere and service here and the food is great

Amazing fresh home grown food. Super creative menu. Lovely vibe sitting outside. Would really recommend this

The service here is kinda poorly timed. This place has service down to a science! The second you walk in, they're hounding you about drinks. But try ordering dessert AND coffee? Apparently, that's too complicated for them to handle, they will serve it separately. The food prep takes time, but it was amazing in the end, so we'll come back for sure.

Chilli eggs on toast was incredible, a bit pricey but worth it. Lovely staff too.

Better experience on both massage and acupuncture. Dr Liz and Jessy.

I love the welcoming vibe of this place! The food is simply amazing, especially the delicious coffee. A bit pricey and getting more expensive than it was. It has become my go-to spot though. They offer great vegetarian options, too. Don't miss their fresh pastries and yummy cookies. Highly recommended, especially on a sunny day when you can sit outside!

A fabulous menu. Great brunch spot! Yummy food, good coffee, great vibes.

Great coffee and delicious fresh buttery pastries, but I would love if they used Oatly rather than Minor Figures oat milk! Staff are always very cheerful and lovely.

Big fans of the coffee scroll & cheesymite scroll! Great coffee & seasonal brunch options too 🍳 Service & vibes are always immaculate ✨ (I think service charge is included in the cost of each menu item, which may be why Brunswick East appears to be on the pricier side)

One of the best coffees I’ve had in London, also probably the best banana bread I’ve ever had.

The Okonomiyaki is masterpiece!

Visited with a friend a couple of weeks ago, I am a chef, a pub chef not a fancy fine dining or gastro chef, two of us ate, and I found myself thinking if this is the best you can do for the money then maybe you should ponder if you should be serving food, don't mind paying money if the food is even half decent, this was not value for money

This is my second visit to this establishment. I was very impressed with the friendliness of the staff and the efficiently of the food ordered. It's a very friendly place to visit. Very welcoming and relaxing and the food is on par with most high end establishments. I would highly recommended The Ounce & The Ivy Bush to anyone visiting East Grinstead.

Really delicious brunch spot in a great setting & lovely ambiance! Ingredients are locally sourced & they try to be seasonal which I appreciate! I had the chili poached eggs which were hearty & delicious, a fresh juice, & an oat flat white (well made). They did forget my order, but they didn’t charge me for my juice which I thought was nice. Friendly staff as well. Book ahead as it’s always full on weekends

best feta and spinach crossiant of my life. That coupled with a pea milk coffee felt very fun! will be back.

Ive been here a couple of times! The food is really pretty outstanding to be fair, gorgeous flavours and really fresh produce. It’s on the pricey side (10-16 quid for a brunch dish) but I will say the portion sizes are generous and it’s all very filling :) was also really impressed with the homemade feta in the seasonal salad!? Wow. Food comes out quickly too. Special shout out to the staff - service is always impeccable, everyone’s very attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and super smiley and friendly. All in all a really great brunch spot!!!

Really nice and cozy place. We went there for brunch. The location is very nice and the service was always great. Absolute recommendation if you are traveling in the area.

Delicious! Great coffee and the yogurty eggs on toast are incredible.

Coffee is good. They charge for oat (but not dairy) milk in Americanos, and offer no discounts for people with their own cups. Stop the vegan tax! :)

Phenomenal brunch, service and atmosphere. New fry up with mussels is INCREDIBLE! 10/10

One of the best food experiences I had in my life. Outstanding!

Always a treat to go there for a morning coffee and a sneaky snack. Lovely coffee beans. Always greeted with a smile. Thanks Spencer

Went into Witherspoon's for lunch found a table went up to the bar and ordered two meals and two coffees excellent service from the young lady and a smile, waiter brought the meals out excellent service from him and another smile. Food was good plates were hot sign of a good chef, . we both enjoyed it and had afters as well Will definitely be returning and recommending. Well done. Better than Tonbridge Humphrey Bean wetherspoons DO NOT GO THERE

An excellent brunch spot and definitely worth your time! Especially the seasonal is always great. They make plenty of their own ingredients which are extremely flavoursome, and the chef is clearly so creative.

Amazing food, perfect coffee, cool atmosphere, cool staff. I love there. I’ll come again and again.

Really expensive and flavourless food

I cannot speak highly enough of this place. I've come here dozens of times and have never had a bad experience. The staff are delightful, the atmosphere is welcoming and the owner is clearly passionate about food which is apparent in every dish. Get the seasonal on toast, it's always sublime.

We popped in for a fri lunch, the service was prompt and polite the food was standard pub grub plenty of it and well cooked, overall a pleasant meal at the usual great witherspoon prices!

I ordered a Large Mixed Grill and a Lager via the App so it all worked out well.. The food was great . You get a lot on the Plate for what you pay for. It was a good night and the Staff were polite and Friendly

Tomato dish with whipped cheese was insane

It was the best cafe in london ever! 모든메뉴가 완벽한 맛…! 진짜 너무 맛있어요 감동적인맛 짱맛있음 대박임

A distinctly average experience. Reaally long wait times; we’re talking about 35-40 minutes between ordering two very simple dishes and them arriving. Coffee was fine. Service very very slow. If you go when the gym has its doors open, you will need to be adept at tuning out the high frequencies of clattering chains. Otherwise it was a pleasant enough spot, but the food was nothing to write home about and really very expensive for what it was.

You'd be laughed out of business in Brunswick trying this on. If you're after bread, you'll get a lovely huge slice, but for every other topping or flavour - sure it tastes fresh, but that is as deep as any of the flavours ran, impressive for the depth each dishes description goes into. Pretty - but underwhelming fine dining portion sizes relying on the hope you'll eat enough bread to be full after a meal.

Food is so fresh, unique and tasty. Great vegan brunch option, cakes and cookies. Service and atmosphere are great. Love sitting on one of the tables outside on a sunny day!

Sitting at table on a public pavement beside a road with my dogs lying quietly on a blanket beside me. I was told to move and never come back. The person was rude.

Loved the chilli pouched eggs 🤤 Unique and amazing flavours. Slightly pricey £14.50 but it’s worth it. The sourdough was a big slice.

Spot one with the location. Expensive compared with any other spot locally. Personally felt it missed a bit of flavour. I prefer my coffee to be hot not lukewarm.

As weatherspoons pubs go this is probably one of the cleanest I’ve seen. Bar staff were friendly, good service. Had a traditional breakfast which was SO cheap. Nice big bar with lots of tv screens. Carpark just up the road 😊

Quick service with a smile, nice meal and drinks, close to the cinema and the rest of the town. We did a 15 minute walk to get to the station so no need to worry about parking!

A great spot. But honestly underwhelming taste for the price and aesthetic. Food , under seasoned, coffee delicious but so expensive (£1 more than anywhere else locally), service ok, menu confusingly written. My Japanese pancake was a wet mess. And my friends toast was a doorstep, more bread than toast. £4.50 for an extra side of bacon is ludicrous. I’m aware of rising prices of food. But this did not feel worth it.

Such a special place for brunch! Food is creative and delicious! Service is great! And the interior is beautiful!

£4 for a cappuccino. I’m sorry but that’s ridiculous guys. If you can afford to lower your coffee prices then please consider this. They are over priced and there are cheaper high quality alternatives closeby

Bar davvero carino per far colazione. Ottimo il cappuccino e il succo alla mela; anche torte e brioches davvero ottime. Consigliatissimo soprattutto per l’ambiente e la location frequentato tanto da famiglie

We came here for a team breakfast and i cant reccomend it enough! Tal really took care of everything for us and was super friendly! The food was beautiful and tasted amazing. I cant wait to go there again

Amazing food, wonderful staff. Outdoor area is flooded with insects, very cramped seating. The table next to you can hear our whole conversation. Good experience, but I wouldn’t come back.

What a great find, the food was delish, the setting very relaxing and the service friendly. My new fav in my new hood.

Great coffee (top tier piccolo), amazing atmosphere and interesting weekly changing menu. I’ll be going again and again.

Seriously good breakfast. Not just me but everyone sitting around me was raving about their fresh, wholesome and all round delicious breakfast. Good coffee a bit exe but that’s London at the moment.

Poor service, poor food and staff with attitude giving Weatherspoon a bad name, we ordered food it came out cold we a approached the manger who really shouldn’t be the manager with an attitude like that any one would think we asked for gold never ever will i be back there
