Mud
Our favourite time to visit Mud is 11am on a Friday, for a long, lazy day-off brunch when we’ve got nowhere to be. Portions are generous, dishes are bursting with colour—from pea shoot garnishes, pomegranate seed sprinkles, or golden drizzles of honey—and it’s got the same chaotic, fun energy as being around the kitchen table with your family. That does mean service at this Tooting cafe can be slow, but it’s all part of the laid-back charm.
On large, well-loved wooden tables, big breakfast plates—like the must-order Kejriwal chilli cheese toast with suya-spiced bacon, or stacks of fluffy gianduja pancakes—are plonked down between friends. We’ve had the odd dry muffin here, but on the whole this cheerful spot can be relied on for good food and a good time.
