The best cafés in Notting Hill

Eggbreak is a favourite Notting Hill spot that's fully dedicated to the first most important meal of the day. The all-day breakfast menu here draws inspiration from food from around the world, like lamb hash, French toast, spicy omelettes and serious egg sarnies, as well as smoothies, builder's tea, and boozy brunch cocktails to wash it all down with.

With locations across London and roots in Notting Hill, Farm Girl brought Aussie-style brunch culture to the capital. You'll find fresh, nourishing dishes  (think eggs, porridge and acai bowls), quality coffee, and the Insta-favourite rose latte, made with rose water-infused milk and petals. Their OG spot on Portobello Road has a laid-back Cali vibe and a cosy heated terrace.

Kuro is a cute little corner café just off Notting Hill Gate with minimalist style, think monochrome interiors and Japanese touches. It's all about great coffee (including matcha), baked treats, and other light bites, like Japanese egg sandos. Nab one of the few outdoor seats and people-watch with a flat white in hand.

Beam started in Notting Hill and now has a few stylish outposts across the city. It's a family-run spot with a neighbourhood feel and a menu of brunch plates and Mediterranean-inspired mains, including halloumi wraps, shakshuka, fresh salads, and great coffee. They also offer solid kids' options, so it's a win-win for both grown-ups and little ones.

This friendly, dog-welcoming café on Portobello Road does all the brunch classics in a chic, rustic setting with exposed brick and lush hanging plants. The menu is brimming with dishes like toasties, sandwiches, cakes, and full breakfast spreads, featuring veggie, vegan, and gluten-free options.

Fabrique is a Stockholm-born café that has, unsurprisingly, nailed the Scandi vibe. It's all about proper sourdough and pastries baked in stone ovens. The Notting Hill branch is tiny but worth a visit – grab a seat inside if you can and tuck into one of their cult cinnamon buns (kanelbullar), best enjoyed with a strong black coffee.

Yes, the name might turn heads, but Eggslut's egg-sandwich game is no joke. The LA-born spot serves all-day breakfast bites, including cheesy egg burgers, truffled mushroom buns, and its famous coddled egg-in-a-jar. Perfect for a hangover or a very tasty pitstop.

The Notting Hill branch of Yotam Ottolenghi's deli franchise is a treasure trove of veggie dishes and delicious bakes. Think bulgur-packed salads, roasted veg with Middle Eastern spices, and cakes so beautiful you'll want to frame them. It's takeaway and catering only, but there's always a queue, and it's worth it.

Bill Granger's all-day café is a stylish Aussie import with a creative, global twist. Inside, it's all sunny, with a menu that spans everything from fluffy ricotta pancakes and grain bowls to burgers and coconut-laced curries. The breakfast here is particularly popular, earning the place a bit of a cult following over the years.

Notting Hill's Daylesford is a café, deli and farm shop rolled into one, serving organic, seasonal plates from its Cotswolds farm. Sit in for wood-fired pizzas or dishes like wild garlic burgers, or browse the shop for fresh produce, skincare and stylish homeware. It's a wholesome, Notting Hill-style hangout with serious aesthetic appeal.
