Breads Etcetera (The Ferm)

I ordered the baked eggs with bacon and mushrooms. It barely contained any bacon, mostly just fat, and was swimming with water because obviously the mushrooms hadn't been fried off before cooking in the eggs so they'd leaked their fluid inside the dish. In short, horrible food with bad, scowling service. This place used to be good but the quality today was appalling. All it's got now is the toaster-on-table gimmick and that's not enough.

Weirdly we ffound the manager abrupt as well, but I think he's just keeping on top of a busy cafe... That said the bread is awsome the concept good yes it's a little expensive but for a one off good fun and very tasty. Soft boilled eggs and bacon, Salmon and scrambled eggs, loads a toast 2 teas and 2 cappacino's £26.

My favourite breakfast place in the world! I take all my friends here and everyone that comes to stay with me from back home. Yes the manager is a bit abrupt but is fine as is a busy place and wouldn't work if he was a softie. Also I can understand why u can't be seated if ur whole partie isn't present as they need every chair they can get as is so popular! I cannot fault this place whatsoever, and the people that have I think should stick to the Ivy where they'll be waited on hand and foot and would surely pay for it, as bread etc is very reaonable especially for all their breakfast prices including unlimited home made breads.

I am forever amazed at how busy this place continues to be, I visit Clapham each time I visit London and make it a mission to eat at here. It is certainly a place you miss when you realise there are few places like this anywhere. Lucky lucky London.

After the wait, not long but seemed longer with the artic wind, the café was warm and inviting and we did not want to leave. Staff were great, but the food was something worth writing about (that’s why I am). Yes it’s a bread lovers dream – and you can start as soon as you are in so there is no delay – however the food was quick, hot and tasty. I came with a large group and all were feed in no time and at the same time. Wholesome and down to earth just like the breads and just like the café. Job well done.xx

This is the best bread in London. Served up with a toaster was absolute heaven. I will be back!!

We usually go to Breads in the week and always enjoyed it. For the first time we decided to go on a Sunday and it was very busy, the place was full and we had to wait for 15mns which we were aware off as the manager (Jean-Luk??) told us. Those guys were not cutting any corners and we had the same good breakfasts and service like we always had in the week. Very lively place and one of my favourite in Clapham and they sell Lamingtons

I have gone for dinner here 4 times recently and everytime the service and food has been excellent and great value for money.

I have to say i really dont know what you guys are on about....I LOVE this place, the food and the service is always amazing!! Granted it is busy (so they must be doing something right) but how else do you control that many people.... Food is also a reasonable price....how much do yu expect to pay for all you can eat bread and a free side....

Overpriced and poor service yet a pre-included service charge. Very disappointed is an understatement. As previous comments have said the concept and decor of this little cafe are good and lured us in, but aside from the bread the food was pretty poor. In addition to my DIY toast (GBP 5) I was charged GBP 2 for 4 thin slices of flavourless supermarket cheddar cheese and 2.50 for a tiny glass of orange juice. The waitress said they only had bought juice, when we queried the bill, another waiter claimed it was fresh squeezed juice. It tasted like average carton orange juice. To top it all, there was a service charge automatically added to our bill. I paid just under 11 pounds for a poor cheese sandwich and a mini taste of orange juice. We won't be going back and we won't be recommending it to friends. The bread however is good, so I would use it as a bakery.
