10 Places To Eat Avocado On Toast in London

My obsession with avocado on toast borders on unhealthy. Which is ironic, considering it’s a fairly healthy thing to eat. If I’m out for breakfast or brunch (heck, even lunch) and it’s on the menu, I have to order it. Because I’m nice, like that, here are 10 of my favourite places to eat avocado on toast, in London… (Where are your favourites, though? Please share with me, by commenting below!)

Caravan, King’s Cross

Avocado on toast, Caravan

The perfect oozy poached egg, on mashed up avocado, sourdough toast with a sprinkle of pepper, a bit of chilli and a drizzle of oil. Sheer perfection? Well almost – it’s a bit on the small side, for greedy old me! Book here.

Gail’s, Blackheath

Avocado on toast, Gail's

Another small portion from Gail’s, but packed with flavour – mashed avo, tomatoes, pine nuts and coriander. All the yum. Find your nearest Gail’s here.

Drink, Shop & Do, North London

Drink, Shop & Do, avocado on toast

Ahh, that’s more like it. A generous portion from Drink Shop & Do in North London – with heaps of coriander, jalapeño and lime-pickled onions. All served with a massive pot of tea! Check them out here.

Foxlow, Stoke Newington

foxlow, Stoke Newington

Plain and simple, with just a sprinkle of dried chilli, but you can order a side of poached eggs if you like (disclaimer: my poached egg exploded in my face when I cut into it… so order one at your peril!) Book here.

Brown and Green, Crystal Palace

brown and green, crystal palace

Considering this is a station caff, you can get a pretty good brunch here. This is their Aussie style eggs – avocado, scrambled egg, chilli sauce and rocket. Sounds gross, tasted divine. Check them out here.

Bill’s

avocado toast and egg, Bill's London

A new addition to the Bill’s menu (what took them so long?!), their mashed avo on sourdough with a poached egg, chilli flakes and lime juice is mighty tasty. This has knocked my previous favourite brunch (pancakes and fruit) off the top spot. Find your nearest Bill’s.

Granger & Co, King’s Cross

Grangers & Co avocado on toast

No surprise, Bill Granger’s restaurant does a good brunch. Chunky wedges of avocado with heaps of coriander on sourdough and a poached egg on the side. They also do ‘interesting’ health shots if you’re that way inclined. Check them out here.

The Lavender House, Bromley

One of my favourite cafes in south east London, The Lavender House have just added Eggs California to their brunch menu – English muffin, bacon, avocado strips, poached egg, Hollandaise sauce. Done. Check them out here.

119 Lower Clapton

If you’re Clapton way, treat yourself to mashed avocado on toast, poached eggs, herbs and leaves. This was snapped by the ever lovely Poppy Loves London and you can read her favourite avocado on toast haunts here.

Balthazar

Another friend who shares my love for avo – this was snapped by Erica Davies who blogs at The Edited. Toast topped with mashed avocado, tomato salsa, poached eggs, pepper and lime juice. Just incredible to eat!

OK, so now I REALLY want to eat avocado on toast…. anyone else hungry?

    What a great idea for a blog post. I am ashamed to say I have never had avocado on toast but I will now.
    I am tempted to write 10 places to eat pies in Wigan 😉

    Bill’s do avocado on toast! Hurrah! We actually have a Bill’s (so miss living in London). So that’s my next lunch date venue sorted.

    Oh man I was supposed to be going to Granger with a DAd blogger when I come over to London for BML (I left the UK 10 years ago for the Med so I need my London brunch fix and I’ve never gone there) but we shelved it as we won’t be able to fit it in. Damn.

    I’m also addicted to avocado on toast although I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t find anywhere down here that would have it on the menu. I just have to settle for making it myself for breakfast. These dishes look amazing!

    Oh my goodness they all look so yummy!

  11. August 10, 2016 / 9:50 am

    Omg, I know what I’m making for lunch today!!!
