Walking though the arch we arrived into what can only be described as a treasure trove of tiny cafes, restaurants and bars tucked amongst Caribbean food shops and independent boutiques.
There was such a buzz in the air from all the Sunday afternoon chatter of young (generally very good looking) couples and groups of friends probably discussing last nights antics over a latte, crepe or plate of delicious food (be it Thai, Lebanese or burgers and chips!).
We had visited with a purpose - to check out Honest after so many people raving about it. We arrived and were told we would have a 45 minute wait despite trying to time out visit at a non-conventional mealtime of 3pm. So we went off for a peppermint tea and waited to be notified by text that our table was free. By this point we were starving and these burgers had a lot to live up to!
My usual panic over choosing what to eat was calmed by the small and simple menu. I went for a homemade lemonade and an Honest burger (on a gluten free bun - this market is a dream for any gluten free eaters) and Barney went for the special and we shared a side of coleslaw.
It was all absolutely delicious! As in seriously good. The chips were debatably the best chips I've had in a long time...or maybe ever - they were all crispy! Yum. And the burgers were amazing too. There was such a charm about the place and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
It was such great value for money, supporting British farmers (all meat is purchased from Ginger Pig) and a really lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
