"What do you get if you cross an All Bar One with the maple syrup french toast of your sugar-coated Sunday cravings? Bargo. This casual day-to-night brunch spot and bar has found its calling—the noble art of creating and then curing hangovers. At the weekend, its exposed brick, loft-look space is permanently packed out with Walthamstow locals, some nursing a cappuccino and a new baby, others nursing the consequence of that second bottle of white wine with a bloody mary and some expertly poached eggs. No matter which life choices have led you here, it’s an easy back-pocket spot for a smashed avocado fix if you’re in the area. Always utter the magic words “and the french toast for the table”. It’s gloriously sweet, covered in crunchy hazelnuts, and we approve of Bargo’s OTT approach to maple syrup." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
