26 Grains

Inspired by Scandinavian cooking after spending a year in Copenhagen, Alex Hely-Hutchinson started 26 Grains and can still be found, her sleeves rolled up, serving up the porridge. 26 Grains offers a seasonally changing menu of colourful porridges loaded full of nutrition, plus the all-important yum factor – the banana cacao is wonderfully sweet and a real morning treat. It also serves bloody strong coffees – available with almond, coconut and good-ol'-fashioned cow’s milk – and virtuous herbal teas. Open from 8am during the week, the space is busy with health-conscious early birds and people with a penchant for Instagramming their food. Who can blame them? This is seriously pretty grub.
