Really like this place. Second time here. Had fried breakfast and it was fantastic. Then eggs royals. That was also great. The service was super swift and the delivery of the food was the same. Generally a nice place.
Beam Cafe is big. For Crouch End. It's also always busy. I opted for the Mediterranean breakfast (for lunch) because I can never resist the list of ingredients. It arrived on a huge plate and was a pretty eclectic mix.
Went for Weekend brunch - impressed by large portions, generously put together with crusty breads, soft, fluffy eggs and deliciously seasoned food all 'round...
Cafe Beam is a great catalyst for catch ups and a bite to eat with its big portion sizes, comfortable and inviting atmosphere and mismatched, quirky decor.
It's cosmopolitan clipboard-menu offers up breakfast, brunch, deli delights & mains with a little something for everyone.
Upon my lunchtime visit I had the spinach and ricotta ravioli, which was a little heavy on the parmesan for my taste but was nonetheless nice enough.
My friend and I shared a gorgeous halloumi salad with this divine tahini & walnut dressing... Being a big lover of all things halloumi related, I loved it!
To drink, I had a refreshing glass of freshly squeezed orange juice which hit the spot perfectly.
All in all, I had a lovely time at Cafe Beam with its informal day time appeal. I'll definitely be returning with a friend and an empty stomach!
I always pass Beam on my way to work and finally got a chance to go. It was fairly busy but there were still tables free, it was nice that the staff gave us a choice to sit further in the cafe or near the entrance. My friend ordered a smoothie and I got the gluten free buttermilk pancakes (half stack). I decided to not get bacon with it and was asked if I'd like to replace it with anything else. I wasn't sure what was on offer so I asked and the staff kindly suggested that banana was a good replacement so I went for that instead :) would love to come by again and get their full breakfast dishes.
Such a lovely breakfast, incredibly tasty and well made. I had the Turkish eggs which were to die for. Espresso was bang on and great quality. Have to say was rather pricey at £41 for 2 people, so will save for special occasions.
Great food, we loved both the brunch dishes we got and portions were generous. Prices corresponding to the size and quality, so fair. The place is nicely made and feels comfy. Ambient is not bad but feels (not asked) a bit in a rush like things need to move fast. I would prefer a more cosy chilling vibes. Would visit again for sure.
A great crouch end restaurant for breakfast and lunch. You can come here for something as simple as a flat white or to meet with a large group over lunch.
The restaurant is consistently busy so try to plan ahead accordingly. Everything I’ve had on the menu so far has been great and I’d highly recommend this place for breakfast or lunch.
the avocado toast is a must!! it’s so yummy. really beautiful atmosphere and lovely comfy seats. the breakfast burrito is 10/10. would highly recommend for a lovely brunch date <3
I’m a regular local of Beam and have always had a great experience. Prices have gone up in the past year but you can guarantee quality and good service.
There is always a queue (for a good reason) but I’ve always been seated with only a short wait.
I’ve eaten Turkish eggs, shakshuka and the full breakfast all delivered to high standards.
Gorgeous brunch spot, really great food and drinks. AMAZING service, the friendliest waiting staff I’ve had in ages. Special shout out to Donald for being so nice and giving us kinder eggs to cure our hangovers!!
Great brunch place with friendly staff. Really good coffee and atmosphere although the brunch we ordered Benedict & Shakshuka were a bit sour to our taste.
So glad I read the reviews for this place. Someone recommended the chicken salad which I ordered and it was delicious. My friend had the goat's cheese and beetroot salad which was equally tasty. Lively ambience abundance generous portions. We just about finished it all. Will return there for sure. Prices reasonable compared to similar places I've eaten at. Good and quick service. Only disappointment was the amount of loo paper left on the floor of the toilet by other customers.
Wow, what an amazing cozy place. The food is absolutely delicious and tasty. Huge portions! Lots of different choices even vegan. Pancakes were a dream. Lovely ambience and the staff is very friendly and attentive, helpful. Quick service was impressive. Absolutely stunning and recommended
