A stunning little pocket secret in the heart of Richmond with cosy, homely vibes at the front and as you meander through to the back.. you'll find an unexpected garden seating area! As you walk in you're enticed and greeted by a beautiful array of baked goods both savoury and sweet.. The staff are wonderful! with warm welcomes and attentive service, you instantly feel comfortable. Great food both in presentation and taste! - having visited for brunch I had ordered spinach fritters with poached eggs.. oh my.. did they hit the spot! Eggs poached to perfection complete with the insta-friendly runny middle that just oozed a stunning orange. My company had the chicken, chorizo fococcia; the flavour was as amazing as the smell, served warm the toasted bread allowed a satisfying crunch as you bit into it and both plates were seasoned to perfection. Ideal for catch ups, brunches and coffees! Definitely going to have to drop...
