Troubadour

Kaprow ( 30s, Female, London )

This bohemian coffe house serves some of the best breakfast in West London. It has a really homely atmosphere, with well-worn interiors full of weird and wonderful knickknacks – think tea pots, enamel signs and old musical instruments (hinting at the frequent live gigs held in the basement below). There's healthy stuff (porrige with banana / fresh fruit with Greek yoghurt) on the menu but the bacon butties and 'full house' are hard to resist. I also love how they put large pots of jam, marmalade and Marmite on the table, as if you were eating in your own kitchen. You can eat breakfast well into the afternoon at weekends but there's also a straightforward lunch/dinner menu offering omellettes, steak & chips – simple, filling stuff. Few people know about the tucked-away back garden, a great local secret in summer.
