Beam

I recently had the pleasure of brunching at beam, and it was a delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance sets the stage for a memorable meal. The staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. We started with a great cappuccino and then had the best, one of a kind, breakfast full of flavours. I highly recommend beam and we’re definitely going back again!

The best brunch I’ve ever been in my life! It was just perfect and everything I like in a brunch! The food is so tasty and it mixes European with Middle Eastern food, the portion are big, and there is nice French toasts! The atmosphere is so nice, the service is perfect and fast! I have nothing to say except that they are victim of their success so there can be a big queue on the weekend especially!

Nice interiors and quite spacious. A few tables and chairs on the pavement. Been in twice, first time I had the pancakes, luckily a small version because it was quite large. Had a veggie breakfast which was massive, too big. Nice but the vegan sausage wasn’t very good and the has browns need to go. I don’t know why restaurants include these as they aren’t good, better to make your own hash potatoes like they do in USA. A bit too much food on the breakfast plate, I don’t like wasting. However that’s my opinion and I expect a lot of people would like gets lot for their money. Staff friendly and service fast.

Beam in Highbury is a delightful brunch spot located in the heart of Highbury. As soon as you enter, you are welcomed by the lovely decor that is warm and inviting. The ambiance is cozy, with ample seating and beautiful natural light that floods the space. The menu offers a great selection of food options, from classic brunch dishes to more creative ones. However, the English breakfast lacks some key components which makes it more a "Partial English breakfast, perhaps less artisanal bread and more tomatoes and black pudding. Nonetheless, the other dishes make up for it, and there is something for everyone on the menu. One standout item that I would highly recommend is the kiwi avocado smoothie. It is a refreshing and delicious drink that perfectly complements any dish on the menu. Also, the fact that Beam is kid-friendly and umbrella-friendly is a huge plus, making it an ideal spot for families and groups. The only downside is that it can get busy, especially during peak hours, so it's best to get there earlier to avoid a long wait. Overall, I would definitely recommend Bean in Highbury for anyone looking for a cozy and delicious brunch spot.
