Folde is a modern European vegetarian restaurant in Battersea, offering all-day dining from breakfast and brunch through to dinner. Known for its creative approach to vegetable-led cooking, it has become a popular neighbourhood spot for relaxed brunches, group dinners and birthday celebrations. The restaurant is child-friendly and caters well to different dietary needs, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, including dedicated gluten-free menus.
Inside, the dining room feels light and welcoming. Floor-to-ceiling windows along one side of the restaurant fill the space with natural daylight, highlighting a soft neutral palette. Light wooden tables and chairs sit alongside sage green booth seating, while small plants and artwork add colour and character.
During the day, the menu focuses on vibrant brunch dishes and freshly baked offerings built around seasonal ingredients. Options include goat cheese omelette with fresh herbs, smoky mushrooms and chard greens served on focaccia, alongside sweeter plates such as date and ginger banana bread topped with caramelised banana, tahini crumble and date syrup.
In the evening, the focus shifts to seasonal sharing plates with vegetables at the centre of each dish. Plates include dishes such as butter beans with preserved lemon and oregano oil, smoked aubergine and walnut dip with mint, beetroot with radish, caramelised red onion and pear topped with candied walnuts and cauliflower with tamarind glaze served with coconut saffron labneh and fennel salad. Crispy aubergine with curry butter sauce, pickled cabbage slaw and peanuts is another standout option.
The drinks list features cocktails such as chilli margaritas, olive oil martinis and coffee negronis, alongside alcohol-free options including a blood orange gimlet and a virgin paloma. Beer, soft drinks and hot drinks including coffee are also available, alongside a wine list selected to complement the vegetable-focused menu.
