Breakfast
26 Grains has carved out a niche in Neal's Yard with a menu centred on grains and porridge, dressed up with more inventive combinations like Turkish-style eggs with chilli butter and crispy nuts on sourdough. The compact, cosy space suits Covent Garden's tucked-away courtyard character, and reviewers consistently praise the freshness of the food and quality of the coffee. Its moderate trendy and aesthetic scores reflect a spot that's stylish without being purely Instagram-driven, appealing to those looking for a genuinely different breakfast option. It's a good pick for something lighter and more distinctive than a standard fry-up.

What people say
"My friends and I ate the food DOWNNNNN 😩💕. So good. I had the Turkish style eggs with chilli butter and crispy nuts? It came with sourdough and was really good. We ordered drinks too, iced matcha and iced tea. I don’t think they add sweeteners in their drinks which is great too! We were also served tap water and didn’t have to ask for it xx The place is tad pricey but the location speaks for itself. Gorgeous open door plan, had the breeze come by on a sunny day too and customer service was great as well xx overall 10/10!"
