The Eclectic Collection in Earlsfield is a bit quirky and different. The cafe has some seating outside and an area at the back with a conservatory, which is cozy and nicely decorated (check out the photograph below).

The menu includes homemade banana bread, beetroot salad, toasted sourdough, and their signature English breakfast. You can also build your own brunch, and choose exactly how you want your eggs, with a variety of different sides and toppings.

Although this cafe had been recommended to me by a number of locals, we found the food to be disappointing. When we went we tried the Eggs Royale and Berry Pancakes. I found the bread was really doughy, the eggs were not cooked properly, and there was water all over the plate. The pink hollandaise sauce also tasted as weird as it looks (see the photograph below).

Most of the tables are also too low for the seats and are uncomfortable to eat off. This brunch spot wasn’t a favourite for us (sorry), but I’ve kept it on the list as other people have said they liked it here.

Must-try: The freshly squeezed orange juice was nice, although small.

At the moment this is our favourite brunch place in Earlsfield! When we went we tried the smashed avo with chilli and lime (on its own and with streaky bacon), and the eggs royale. Everything was delicious!

When we visited we took a dog with us, and the staff there were very dog friendly. They even told us they prefer it when customers bring dogs with them! I tried out the avocado on toast, which is shown below.
