"Farm Girl goes all in on the Australian healthy-eating thing for the Notting Hill crowd, right down to the coconut ‘bacon’, macadamia butter, and optional sprinklings of superfoods. If you want to roll your eyes, by all means, go for it. But you should also know that the whole health thing here actually comes with some very good food attached. Sandwiches and salads are great, and while expensive when you look at the menu (around £10-11 for a full-size sandwich), a full size order should be big enough for two to share. And just so you know: they do serve meat, in form of steak and chicken, and fish too. Drinks are a surprising strong point. ‘Liquid Gold’ - lime juice, ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, nutmeg, astragalus, and honey - would be worth drinking even if it weren’t allegedly good for you. The location guarantees a mob scene on Saturdays, but you’ll probably queue on Mondays too. So swallow your mockery with a sprinkling of spirulina. photo credit: Rob Greig photo credit: Rob Greig photo credit: Rob Greig Pause Unmute" - Richard Ehrlich
"Farm Girl goes all-in on the Australian healthy-eating thing for the Notting Hill crowd, but you should also know that the whole health thing here actually comes with some very good food attached. Monday through Wednesday in August, everything from the oat milk latté and flat white through to açai bowls, vegan donuts, and the excellent salads and sandwiches are half price (up to £10 per person). And if Notting Hill’s a bit of a trek, they also have branches in Fitzrovia, Knightsbridge, Chelsea, and Soho." - oliver feldman, rianne shlebak
"Notting Hill is one of London’s prettiest neighbourhoods, and one of the best choices for brunch in Notting Hill is Farm Girl. This café goes all-in on the Aussie healthy eating up to the point where you might find yourself eating “coconut bacon.” That’s not something we would typically condone, but we actually find all of the food here to be quite good. And we’re not the only ones - Farm Girl is pretty much always mobbed." - rianne shlebak
"There are few things more confusing to Londoners than the concept of a farm. Stick a man in a cow costume, get him to run around on any bit of greenery north of Brent Cross, and within an hour you’d have a line of Upper Street residents willing to pay 20 quid for a visit. Someone at Farm Girl clearly recognised this, because this Notting Hill cafe is doing very well for itself. This is an ideal healthy breakfast and brunch spot for a catch-up over a salad." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Farm Girl is one of those places where the menu reads sort of like a haiku entitled ‘Vitamins Are Our Friends’. We’re talking cacao nibs, toasted sesame, ginger, cardamom, candy beetroot, dragon fruit, and açaí bowls. But amid all of the herbs and hibiscus, you’ll find dishes like cherry pancakes and spicy fish tacos that are completely gluten-free. Follow up brunch at the Australian cafe with a casual stroll around Portobello Market. You sophisticate you. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Sinead Cranna
