All The Shapes
All The Shapes has that relaxed café-bar, all-day-eatery thing nailed. It’s the sort of place where you feel equally comfortable rocking up with toddlers in tow or drinking your way through the craft beer range until closing time.
Throughout the day, you’ll find wholesome brunches like toasted banana bread with chocolate spread or home-made granola as well as cracking coffee and some excellent cakes. There is also a very good kids brunch menu with everything from Greek yoghurt with jam to smashed avocado on toast for your junior hipster.
After brunch finishes (at 4pm, you lazy folks), it becomes more of a drinking destination with tasty bar snacks to pair with all those craft beers and natural wines.
All The Shapes is exactly the sort of place you’d hang out in all the time if you lived anywhere near M25. As well as a friendly atmosphere, good drinks and tasty food, there are also exhibitions by up-and-coming artists, DJs, quiz nights, talks, screenings and the like. All The Shapes, but definitely not square.
