Friends Of Mine

The verdict

Friends of Mine is possibly Richmond's most popular brunch venue. What was once a little house on a corner street is now a cosy yet spacious cafe with eclectic interior touches. Friends of Mine dishes up favourites like a brioche roll with scrambled eggs, bacon and chutney, and their toasted banana bread with maple syrup mascarpone, fresh banana, berry compote and pistachio is famous. There's also a substantial lunch offering. Which you may end up eating as the queues on the weekend can be daunting.
