The Allotment Kitchen Review - Stepney Green - London - The Infatuation

"The Allotment Kitchen is where we go to escape London, while being too lazy to actually leave London. The cafe, part of Stepney City Farm, is the kind of leafy, fairy light-sprinkled oasis that draws nature-starved Londoners with the promise of Baileys hot chocolate and honeycomb-topped Guinness cake. If that doesn’t sound wholesome enough, you’ll eat your orange mascarpone french toast while sitting at a table fashioned from a tree trunk, as the friendly farm cat curls around your legs. The creative dishes are excellent—like confit garlic white bean mash with lemony leeks and crispy sage—and this is one of our favourite brunch spots in the city. Come on the weekend and take a stroll around the farmers’ market, and leave with a blissed-out, rested feeling. photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat" - Sinéad Cranna
