One more train station, one more branch of Beany Green. I seem to find them near all the places I leave for work meetings from, and the simple idea of having breakfast there beforehand is enough to get me excited at the thought of another day on the road.
The ambiance at this Euston branch isn't quite as impressive as in the other cafes: despite Beany Green's signature colourful murals and furniture, this small, drab space feels a bit like a room for rent, a temporary arrangement. I can only hope it's just an impression of mine, as the quality of the food and drinks on offer is as outstanding as everywhere else, and the service is no less friendly or attentive. I might be biased, given the frequency of my trips from Euston, but I wouldn't want Beany Green to go anywhere else (unless they decide to open up shop right opposite my office, in which case it's fine, I'll take it, thanks very much).
My breakfast recommendations are the usual: get the yoghurt with granola and fruits, which has no equals I know of in London, and keep an eye out for brownies and coconut bread if you're in for a more substantial treat. Now, I know brownies are not breakfast material in this country, but you'd be a fool not to make an exception in this case. What's the alternative - undertopped porridge bought from a station kiosk? Come on, you love yourself more than that.
Before the pandemic I used to come by and then during the pandemic I came a few times but it was still locked up.
Today I tried again and I was in luck.
The brunch café type place is just a perfect gem in a very stiff competitive environment.
First of all they are so welcoming and the decor is so beautifully done that feels amazing to sit and enjoy a bit of rest with coffee or lunch.
The place is spotlessly clean. The seats are very comfortable.
Now the food is delicious. Much more than artwork presentation it is tasty and healthy.
I would highly recommend you pop by and pay Beany a visit.
Just a really solid oat flat white. Friendly staff. Best coffee in the area.
