Breads Etcetera (The Ferm)

I love this place for breakfast and dinner too! Not many people know that it's there for dinner and they're really missing out. It's a totally different atmosphere to breakfast and is super warm and cosy, with delicious pizzas, salads and wine all very reasonably priced!

Amazing cosy little cafe! Great scones and coffee! Helena was a big help for our New Years plans!

I had heard many good things about this delightfully cosy restaurant/bakery, so on deciding to visit with my partner for Saturday breakfast, my expectations were high. And I'm thrilled to say that neither of us were disappointed. The popularity of this restaurant did mean queueing for 15mins outside, however we were continually kept up to date with the progress of vacant tables and fed free samples of their divine homemade scones and muffins. These baking delights continued when encouraged to help ourselves to their sourdough breads (including two types of rye), to then take to our own personal toasters, accompanied by homemade jams. The menu was specific but varied so as to suit whichever mood you may be in - whether it 's some heart-warming porridge, or a refreshing dish named "Victoria's Breky", made up of salmon, dill mayonnaise and scrambled eggs (my personal favourite!). All coffee fans would be impressed by their own house roast, I sampled a delicious, non bitter cappuccino. And the Hot Chocolate was to die for. One of the best's I've had in London! The attention paid to us throughout our morning kept our spirits high, great customer service up until we left the restaurant. This is a little gem of a place, with a buzzing atmosphere and a completely unpretenscious environment. One which I couldn't leave without buying myself a walnut sourdough loaf to take home and feed to my friends so that they could get a taster for our experience. Very much looking forward to returning and testing out their sourdough pizzas which supposedly out do Franco Manca'!!

Came on here to mention the poached eggs, but I see Dave has beaten me to it. When asked if we could have poached, the response was, "we don't have poached eggs". The poached egg chicken must have been on holiday when we were there. The scrambled egg chicken was working though, although his weren't great.

Doesn't do poached eggs..... need i say more?

Fantastic breakfasts! We ordered 4 quite different options and all arrived together with each one looking impressive. I was told the flat whites were also very good by my friends My fiancé has a dairy intolerance and when she asked for an alternative to butter for the signature toast options, the kind chap popped down the road to buy her a suitable dairy free alternative! Great food, great service, great experience – Top Marks!

FAB FOOD, GREAT service... I cannot find fault even at busy times. queueing is part of it, once your in you can toast away!

came across this place by accident. Had a very nice breakfast there. baked eggs were great. Bread was great. service when we visited on both mornings was very good. Def worth a visit.

I have only ever checked out The Ferm/Breaks etc in the evening, and, aside from the idiosyncratic branding, it's an ideal getaway from the Friday and Saturday night Clapham High St. rush: cosy ambience, polite service and cool music to accompany a simple but freshly oven baked pizza - all for a decent price (beers excepted).

Most of the reviews are are about the breakfast/brunch and bread. We went in the evening when the caff functions as a rather quiet, lovely and cheap restaurant. The decor and music are nice, the pizzas excellent, though with quite different toppings from a normal Italian. Whenever we've been it's been very quiet, which we find lovely, but extraordinary. Well, don't too many of you go...
