While exploring the area, I made a delightful stop at Common, a charming and cosy cafe that offers picturesque views of Clapham Common in London SW4. The cafe’s brunch menu features a range of delectable options such as Yoghurt Bowls, Toasted Banana Bread, Sourdough with Avocado or Eggs, a variety of comforting Toasties, and healthy Salads. Complementing these delicious offerings are Assembly Coffee, Prosecco and Mimosas, making it an inviting spot to relax and relish the scenic view. If you’re looking for the best brunch places in Clapham Common, this eatery will entice you back for more.
“Common, aptly named for its prime location overlooking Clapham Common, is celebrated for its delightful all-day brunch menu, making it a go-to destination for a well-deserved treat,” Homegirl London.
Common Cafe Brunch Menu
The menu at Common is an all-day brunch lover’s dream. Whether you’re seeking a simple yet satisfying bite like Croissants, Pastries, Cakes or Sourdough with Jam and Butter, Common has you covered. I indulged in the Toasted Banana Bread, a delightful creation decorated with Coconut Yoghurt, Fresh Fruit, Figs, Coconut Flakes and a drizzle of Maple Syrup. It looked stunning and tasted fabulous. These dishes are priced between £6-6.50.
If savoury options are more to your liking, Common offers Soup with Sourdough for those seeking warmth on a chilly day. Or you may prefer the Poached Eggs on Sourdough embellished with Mixed Seeds and Greens. Their Avocado on Sourdough with Radish is equally tempting, with a hint of Chilli Flakes and Mixed Seeds. Alternatively, you can opt for the Salmon and Cream Cheese on a Seeded Bagel, accompanied by Rocket, Capers, Dill and Radish. These cost from £6-11.
On my second visit, I couldn’t resist a Toastie of gooey Goats Cheese and sweet Fig Jam. Other tempting options included Cheddar with Chutney, Mozzarella with Pesto and Sundried Tomato, Tuna with Cheddar, or Ham with Cheddar and Garlic Mayo. These Toasties are pretty filling, so if you’re dining with a friend, consider sharing one and adding the Goats Cheese with Walnut Salad or the Avocado Salad to make it a healthier, less carb-heavy meal.
The beverage selection includes Assembly Coffee and a few delightful Smoothies. The Green Smoothie boasts Spinach, Avocado, Celery, Banana, Ginger and Apple Juice. The Berry Smoothie features Raspberry, Blackberry, Strawberry, Banana and Coconut Milk. Remember to explore the brunch drink options, and in the evenings, Common transforms into a wine bar offering Small Plates and both Savoury and Dessert Sharing Boards.
