Caravan

This place is magic. Service, food and ambience are all spot on. Best for dinner or weekend brunch. Can't wait to get back there.

I would have expected better service in a central London restaurant. The waiters and managers were both rude and not accommodating. The food was a sort of Middle Eastern fusion and a bit too complicated.

So if you fancy a bit of 90’s service this is the place to go. We are not going back there again!

A great place to go for weekend brunch. They have a super brunch menu and good service too. Will be going back there again.

Having read previous favourable reviews, I chose 'Caravan' for brunch with four friends at the weekend. It turned out to be a good choice.

Service from the attractive, young staff was friendly, informal but also attentive; the dining room is relaxed with, on the sunny day we visited, the doors and windows open - creating a pleasant airy room; finally, the food was delicious, well-presented and arrived quickly.

Overall, we couldn't fault anything. Everyone in the party agreed it was an excellent 'find' and is looking forward to returning soon.

Congratulations on establishing a great new venue on the London Brunch Scene.

After ducking into Caravan for the odd coffee when I can, I invited friends to brunch there two weekends ago - and general consensus was brilliant. Service was lovely- super friendly and open (only in the way antipodian's can be). May I also add how lovely staff are in general, attractive, well presented and knew the menu. So refreshing.

Love the pick and mix menu- great combinations and always feels good that you can create your own brunch/lunch or dinner feast, just as you like it.

Oh and the coffee was perfect (a rarety in london)

I have to say it is my number one place to reccomend to friends and work colleagues as a place to dine, and no one has complained about my suggestion yet.

Well done - I'll be back for more.

Caravan is brilliant. Everything they offer is quality, from the coffee to the food to the wine and cocktails. Great for brunch, but even better for dinner. Great to have another reasonably-priced high-quality eatery in London. They are few and far between, unfortunately.

Twice in the last week. Both times it was amazing.

Great coffee, great food, great friendly knowledgeable service.

Dinner tonight? Why not...

A welcome change from the previous set up, Caravan is chilled out with fantastic food and a semi-respectable wine list. A bar slash restaurant set up, Szechuan squid with coriander salad is top of my new favourite food list while the falafel came with a moreish apple chutney. The tuna is mouth watering with a broad bean salad and ginger dressing (could have less ginger) while the fritters show a new (and delicious) way to serve up salt beef. Fantastic environment with southern hemisphere slant, can't wait till the french windows swing open for summer.

Brilliant breakfast spot - run by Antipodeans, Caravan is totally reminiscent of cafes Down Under with excellent coffee and an enticing menu.

The fry up was good, the porridge the best we'd tasted, and the avocado with chilli flakes on sourdough toast worth going back for on its own.

The staff were laid back, funny and attentive all at once and managed to keep up a great pace despite the place being packed.

Will definitely be going back - there are a few places in London that could learn a lot from this little beauty about good weekend brekkie.
