Coffee and lunch spots in St John’s Wood
A quick bite to refuel is the difference between a good day and a great day. Pick up fresh fruit, artisan coffee and feel-good bakes at these favourite spots on St John’s Wood High Street.
The Hummingbird Bakery
Cake tastes better when it’s been baked that very same day. Hummingbird Bakery knows it; and so will you when you call in for a slice.
This is American home baking at its sweetest, complete with cupcakes, brownies, cheesecakes and cookies. Pair with a freshly brewed cup of joe for the full stars-and-stripes experience.
WatchHouse
Open nice and early for the first cup of the day, WatchHouse is serious about good coffee.
Sourced seasonally and roasted in London, there’s intention behind every bean. Enjoy perched at a window seat while you catch up on emails, or take away with a fresh sandwich and a warm bake.
Poke House
Inspired by the poke shacks on California’s West Coast, Poke House is a splash of sunshine in a bowl. No surfboard necessary.
This is food that makes you feel good on the inside: fresh smoothies, substantial salads and colourful poke bowls packed with flavour. Choose from the menu or create your own.
BENS
Familiar faces and fresh produce. Welcome to BENS: your local greengrocer on St John’s Wood High Street.
If the neat stacks of colourful fruit and veg on the pavement don’t tempt you in, the promise of finding something special inside will. See what catches your eye on the way home.
Pret A Manger
You can always count on Pret A Manger. Grab a pastry or a roll on the walk into work, or make it a handmade wrap in between meetings.
Whether it’s a coffee for the commute or a lunchtime pitstop, everything here is freshly prepped and anything that doesn’t get sold goes to charity.
