Best brunch cafes in Blackheath, ranked
#1Hounslow for a slow weekend brunch
$$๐ Dogs outsideOutdoor seating๐ณ Neate Park, 4 min walkHounslow suits a slow weekend brunch, since breakfast, brunch and lunch all stay on the menu until mid-afternoon. Regulars reach for the avocado bread and the almond croissant, and an extra hot almond latte is a common pairing with the croissant. There is a kids menu and step-free access, so a family can settle in. A dog can sit with you outside, and Neate Park is a short stroll away after brunch.
#2Pomelo Cafe for brunch with a strong latte
$$๐ณ The Gardens, 3 min walkPomelo Cafe serves brunch from 8am on its open days, with breakfast and lunch on the same menu. Lattes are the draw here, and coffee drinkers praise them. For brunch, one visitor enjoyed the Avo Fetta hummus, and vegetarian dishes are easy to find. One visitor praised the sukiyaki beef bowl for its tender, charred beef. Walks start from The Gardens, three minutes on foot, so a stroll fits either side of brunch.
#3Altitude Delicatessen for an early vegetarian brunch
$$Outdoor seating๐ณ The Gardens, 4 min walkAltitude Delicatessen is a meat-free choice for a morning before a walk. Early starts are the rule here: the doors open at 7am from Tuesday to Saturday and at 8am on Sunday. The vegetarian breakfast is the dish regulars return for. Scones with jam and cream cover the sweet side, and the toasted sandwiches handle savoury cravings. Outside tables give room for a walking party, and gluten-free dishes cost extra.
#4Choc A Latte for a sweet brunch and hot chocolate
$๐ณ The Gardens, 3 min walkChoc A Latte opens from 8am every day, so it works as an early pastry stop. The display holds sausage rolls and four cheese spinach rolls, and a butter chicken pie is served warm. For something sweet, visitors name the chocolate mousse tart and the hot chocolate fondue. Ordering space is tight and the full display isn't visible from the counter, so decide before you reach the front. Walking time to The Gardens is about three minutes.
#5Victory Cafe for a seasonal brunch plate
$$Outdoor seating๐ณ The Gardens, 4 min walkSeasonal brunch dishes are on offer at Victory Cafe from 8am daily. A breakfast plate comes with eggs, mushrooms, bacon and a hash brown, and diners praise the halloumi fritters for a generous portion. Visitors who want a table in the open will find the street tables out front, and The Gardens is four minutes away.
