Granger & Co
Bill Granger's Australian all-day dining template, done in London, with the ricotta hotcakes that every other brunch restaurant has tried and failed to replicate.
Bill Granger brought the Australian all-day dining concept to London on Westbourne Grove and Granger & Co became, almost immediately, the city's most copied and least replicable brunch address. The ricotta hotcakes are the dish that every other brunch kitchen in London has attempted since 2011; the scrambled eggs are genuinely better than the competition without trying to explain why. The format is relaxed, the room always full, the coffee correct.
It is not the most serious kitchen in the city. It does not need to be. For a leisurely Saturday morning in Notting Hill, with eggs and coffee at the right level, there is nothing more reliable.
Australian-inspired all-day dining — the ricotta hotcakes are the signature, the avocado toast the classic, the grain bowls and salads the lighter option. Breakfast and lunch are the strong suits.
A bright, airy, white-walled Notting Hill room — the Australian light-filled dining aesthetic in a London setting. Always busy, always warm, always functional.
RICOTTA HOTCAKES · SCRAMBLED EGGS · AVOCADO ON TOAST
Granger & Co is the Saturday morning address in Notting Hill that has been reliable for over a decade. Go for the hotcakes, stay for the coffee, accept the queue.
Book ahead — reservations are essential on weekends and for prime dinner times.
Aim for an earlier seating if you want a calmer room; later tables run louder and longer.
