Heart of Balham - HOB

"Love this brunch place! It’s middle Eastern cuisine adapted for the British palette, but still maintaining its middle eastern roots - food is well priced and you definitely get your money’s worth with the portion sizes. Pick between your typical brunch dishes with egg or sweet pancakes or choose your lunch options like wraps. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options too! Walk ins usually only on weekends but don’t expect to be waiting anymore than 10 min for a table for 2. Thanks HOB for an amazing experience each time. Will be recommending to all my friends and I will be back again!"

"Amazing place! Staff are very nice and accomodating, I exchanged many items in my order with other options without any issues. Delivious food and big portions which makes prices really good. Can't wait to be back again!"

"Stopped by here for a weekday lunch as it is always ram packed on the weekends. They seemed to have a variety of things on the menu and the breakfasts looked particularly nice. I had the buttermilk chicken burger. Despite being empty, it did take 30 minutes to arrive. The sandwich was okay, lacking a bit of flavour and not necessarily note worthy. Probably will return to give breakfast a try as it’s local and very reasonably priced."

"I really don't understand how this place doesn't have a higher rating. Friendly service with nothing too much trouble. Delicious and fresh food - superb breakfast with many options. My only minor criticism is the waitress hanging around waiting to take plates / check in on your eating. This place is a gem and I look forward to going back."
