The Ivy Cafe Blackheath - Lokwabe

Had a nice brunch on New Year's Day, which was a wonderful way to start 2023. service was good and eating was delicious. we even gave our left over brot in a Tuper box to take home.

The Breakfast was absolutely fantastic and tasty I asked for a substitute for one of the items and they were able to accommodate with no fuss. The service was top notch and I am already planning my next visit.

Awesome meal (steak not done to order though asked for medium and it was prepared rare and then improved to medium rare). Great green options (salad, green beans, cream spinach). Chocolate Bombe dessert was amazing. Rather pricy

Good place and ambience Cosy and can prove to be a good location for a sunny day to sit outside as well. The restaurant however is not easily accessible for public transport, needs you to walk from Greenwich which is not too bad. Food however was very disappointing. Thick and chewy pancakes did not feel fresh at all. The Zucchini fritter is advertised as almost a special but is very oily and unappetizing. Had to leave most of it on the plate. Not a lot of vegetarian choices which is surprising for Greenwich standards. Brunch was ok Chips and Hollandaise sauce were a slight saving grace, but in general my brunch experience was disappointing.

The food was nice, however what let me down was the forgetfulness with the service. They forgot my brothers Gin and tonic as well as the 2 orders of chips we ordered with our mains. My husband ended up just eating the blackened cod on its own which resulted in us having to buy more food elsewhere. The best part of the experience was the roasted scallops at the start of the meal.
