Polly's - Camden

It was empty for a reason . . Very sad as I used to come here many years ago and it was delightful. Place was dark and grubby, loo was shocking. Scrambled eggs were pale, watery and tasteless. Juice tasted as if out of a carton. Not sure how this place survives given the other lovely options on South End Green.

We were frankly shocked. We entered this place, which looked cute enough, and sat at a table. We ordered poached eggs (with bacon salmon). The owner was rude, he said it would take him at least 30 minutes and we could leave if we wanted. We were in no rush and waited. He came after 5 minutes with poached eggs that were basically boiled, burnt bread and oddly cooked bacon. His hands were dirty with food and then he touched the money and card machine without washing (before or after). We could see that he cooked a lot of the stuff in a microwave. At least it wasn't too expensive. But still pretty horrifying!

Chains and faceless soulless cafes are taking over. But Polly’s is still here. Directly next to Hampstead Heath and near the Overground station, it’s a must visit. It’s not flashy or slick, but the coffee and food is good. What a wonderful place!

Saturday afternoon, ordered breakfast, good selection, food was tasty and hot, not expensive, plenty to choose from food and drinks.

Over priced and so so gross, food is gross the place is gross and dirty. Literally the worse place I have ever spend £21. BIG AVOID
