A lovely spot for a tasty brunch with a twist. They do classics very well such as delicious scrambled eggs and yummy coffee but also have dishes with a Danish twist such as their special variations of a rarebit.

Snaps + Rye is a Danish Eatery and Takeaway situated on Golborne Road, West London, just a short walk away from the Ladbroke Grove station. JB and I stopped by for lunch which consists of traditional Danish Smørrebrød on homemade rye bread, meatballs, home cured salmon, and an a la carte menu on a daily basis.
After studying the menu for a decent amount of time, wandering the shop and eyeing up other people’s lunch we decided on what to have!
I opted for Danish Smørrebrød complete with apple, chicken and crispy bacon which was divine. For sides I tried the potato salad and rye bread with cheese. To drink I obviously had to go with the Cocio Chocolate milk from Denmark. I wanted the full Danish experience!
JB opted for Rare Beef on Rye with soft boiled egg, pickled mushrooms and mustard cauliflower. There was even some marrow thrown in for good measure!
We both emptied our plates, and despite being full to the brim I probably could of tried more!
The service was of a very high standard, and the venue itself was very quirky. Lots of great artwork, and the furniture was really nice too. The whole area felt bright, and airy.
There’s even a little shopping area where you can by rye bread, lots of the ingredients from their menu and the plates/home wares that decorate the venue. I had to tear myself away from the mustard selection as I’m sure they won’t go down too well on my healthy eating plan!
I’d highly recommend popping by Snaps + Rye if you’re in the area as the food and service is very authentic.
I recently attended a chocolate class with other bloggers at ‘Bake With Maria‘, a baking school run by the lovely Maria Mayerhofer. Maria teaches all kinds of classes, from macarons to croissants, and last week, I was invited to try out her ‘baking with rye’ class. I really enjoy making and eating bread, although I’d never made rye bread at home before. There’s so much focus in the news at the moment on eating healthily and cutting out various food substances, such as gluten or yeast, so I was keen to see if I would like the rye products as much as standard white or brown bread. I was hoping I would, as it seemed like a healthier alternative!

Copenhagen is a most charming capital. I was there not long ago, catering for a big 50th birthday bash. The quality of fresh meat, seafood, fruit and vegetables is second to none and the people are wonderfully warm and friendly. They do, however, possess a sense of humour that reminds one of Benny Hill. It ain't subtle, that's for sure.
At any rate, my business partner happened to be strolling along the Golborne Road and came across this Danish cafe. Here's what she had to say about it.
I was delighted to stumble across this bright, fresh faced restaurant on the Golborne Road which opened in December last year. The delivery bike outside was a big draw for passing tourists but for me it was the tiny but delicious sounding menu that drew me in.
I was drawn to the Pork and Veal Frikadeller with an artichoke and apple puree, danish blue cheese croquette and cabbage slaw. The meat was juicy and very tasty but the star of the show for me was the croquette which was delicately fried without a hint of grease and an abundance of flavour.
Next to me there was a family of six tucking into a big plate of Smorrebrod, thin slices of dense rye bread with a variety of interesting toppings included, Akvavit cured salmon and prawns. The kids who were half danish were clearly very happy eating this healthy feast.
The food is beautifully presented, they make their own bread and cure their own salmon. The food is really clean and healthy and as I left I felt energised rather than stuffed.
My bill for food, a glass of Pinot Grigio Blush and an Americano came to £14.65 sans service. For the quality of food it and the care with which was prepared, it was really very reasonable.
There was a wonderful lilt in the air that let me know that I was in the company of happily munching Danes who had found a new home in London....this is however very accessible food and urge you to experience the delights of this new eatery and perhaps peruse the eclectic collection of shops in the Golborne Road.
Fantastic brunch! Perfect service! Yummy food! We could not asked more today!
We came here after a suggestion from a friend of us and we have to say that the place is cute and the food is great, service was second to none!
Absolutely recommended! Try their smoked in house salmon, their rye bread and the herring for a different type of food from your usual brunch. It is not a cheap place but quality and service is high!
Came here today and had Nordic Kedgeree, absolutely delicious. They use good quality ingredients and great flavours. Friendly service and nice atmosphere. Reasonably priced too. Vegan options available and good selection of dishes on the menu. It would be better if they have a baby changing facilities. Coffees was a little disappointing, but the food is good.
Been there the 2nd time. And it was awesome. Found an offer, called The Danish Way. Don't know, why I missed that last time, because it's great. You get one Danish beer, a Smorrebrod of your choice and a snaps, also the one you want. Had the herring and the egg+prawn, both really tasty. The snaps, I had the dill version was kinda freaky, but pretty cool. Enjoyed my visit there. Last but not least because of the professional and funny staff. Love it. Recommend you and come back personally.
Snaps + Rye is a cosy cafe in Notting Hill, great for breakfast. Started off with some well-brewed, smooth cappuccinos and a flaky, delicious cinnamon roll pastry. The Smoked Salmon Scramble was great choice with plenty of salmon and well-cooked eggs. The rye bread was delectable, dense and moist, going well with the butter. The buttermilk oat porridge was smooth with the berry compote giving it a nice kick. The staff were very welcoming and friendly.
Cannot overstate the calm, comforting Scandinavian aesthetic. Had a lovely lunch of herring salad, with radish, greens, egg, and potato. Best part was the crispy rye - a delicacy in its own right. Wish there had been room for dessert! Nice gifts are also available from their small retail section, including my favourite SCANDINAVISK candles.
The Danish Breakfast is a must. All other chosen dishes for breakfast were also very nice. We got there at 10am and did not have to wait for a table.
If you're looking for a delicious and a bit untraditional lunch in Notting Hill, you will definitely enjoy this place! They serve traditional Danish food but with their own personal touch. The vibe is very Scandinavian and we even had a (very friendly) Danish waiter. Try the Sun over Golborne!
Dropped in here today while wandering round near Portobello Road and we're so glad we did. The portions are that just right size - not too big, not too small. Everything we had was delicious: from the smoked salmon kedgeree to the full Danish breakfast to the side of pickled herring. My only regret is I couldn't eat more.
Absolutely fantastic place for brunch or a light lunch. Unique flavour combinations and superb presentation. The salmon pate with the rye crackers was magnificent.
Nice place to have a breakfast. A little bit small and noise. The staff was very nice and the food was also good. I recommend to make a reservation at least for Sunday.
