Islands — Restaurant in London

We decided to visit Islands café for a spot of lunch on the back of the other Google reviews and what a winner. It's a simple, unpretentious kind of place with a short menu and an unhurried vibe.

I went for the Tuna Mexican toastie on ciabatta while my other half plumped for chicken & bacon on sourdough. What a great choice! The bread was fresh, nicely toasted and the tuna filling simply divine. No fancy salad or condiments, no flowers or violin accompaniment, just simple food made well.

For dessert I figured that the chocolate and orange cake would be a good chaser but it was a tough choice. There were a lot of cakes on offer and they all looked pretty good. Still I was happy with my selection and it went nicely with a flat white.

A lovely place with excellent service. Definitely worth a visit if you're...

Visited at lunchtime today - Lovely atmosphere with gentle music playing whilst we had superb freshly toasted sandwiches (a wide selection of breads were available) and the mini flowerpot lemon and honeycomb Cronuts were to die for !! (The coffee was good too!!). 🤗 The salads look mouth watering and the 'little' touches of free water and biscuits with our snacks were very much appreciated. We would recommend this quaint little café and look forward to...

We have been regulars here for quite awhile, not sure why I’m only just reviewing it now! The ambience is cosy, the staff is super friendly and the food & coffee are absolutely delicious!! Hands down my fave sandwiches in the area - the tuna melt and chicken bacon (may sound basic but they’re not - try them!) are incredibly tasty. The quiches, cakes & even the side salad are great too. Our dog loves visiting too. Go..you won’t be...
