The Best Brunch Spots in Notting Hill
London is a city made up of neighbourhoods, each one offering something different and unique to the next. One of the best places to while away a weekend, though, is Notting Hill. The neighbourhood made world-famous by Hugh Grant, his blue front door and travel bookshop is now renowned as much for its cafés, restaurants and foodie-friendly status as it is for the antiques and second-hand clothes for sale at Portobello Market. With brunch now a weekend institution, these are the best places you can enjoy it in Notting Hill.
London’s only Danish restaurant, Snaps & Rye adds a Nordic twist to your favourite breakfasts. On the menu you’ll find everything from smørrebrød and cured salmon on rye bread, to Danish pastries and liquorice lattes. Plus, the interior is a minimalist’s dream. Snaps & Rye can be found at 93 Golborne Road, London W10 5NL; visit the website here.
The brainchild of Australian restaurateur Bill Granger, Granger & Co. is inspired by the kind of eateries you’ll find in Sydney.
