Saint James

What defines a good brunch spot? Well to start with, it must have both healthy (e.g. think acai bowls and quinoa creations) and unhealthy (e.g. think the ultimate "hangover cure") options. Good coffee is non negotiable - there is no point going to brunch without it.  And finally, it must have outdoor seating - who wants to be cramped inside on a beautiful sunny day.  Offering some of the best coffee I have had in awhile, an incredible delicious looking menu, and a plethora of outdoor seating at both the front and back of the venue, Saint James CafĂ© meets all of this criteria.

On this occasion I couldn't go past the Saint Benedict with Berkshire pork shoulder, fresh apple, poached eggs and noisette hollandaise on toasted sourdough. It was absolutely delicious - the pork was tender and juicy, the eggs perfectly poached and the fresh apple and apple puree added an incredible element to the overall dish.



My dining companion went for the healthy option - opting for the Breakfast Bowl with red quinoa, kale, avocado, broccolini, house made ricotta, hazelnuts, cranberries, peas, mint, pomegranate and poached egg. The bite I had was absolutely delicious.


We also couldn't go past trying their fish finger butty - market fish with crushed pea aioli and dill & cabbage salad on fresh white bread. Saint James crumbs the fish fingers themselves, which sets this fish finger butty from the usual fish burger/sandwich.


With its delicious food and incredible coffee, I will definitely be back to Saint James soon.
