Monkey Leaf Brunch Restaurant

Behind the leafy name is a plant-filled dining room on Streatham High Road, where a small family team — chef Povilas and host Denas — serve modern European brunch to just 16 tables. The formula clearly works, with a near-perfect 4.9 rating from over 500 reviews, plus dog-friendly outdoor seating when the weather plays along. It only opens Wednesday to Sunday, so booking ahead for weekends is wise.
