The Full Monty - (Near Tower Hamlets, South East)

5 /5 Glenn A.: My favourite breakfast spot in the East. They have the traditional English breakfasts that youd expect but the generous omelette menu, fresh juices, and toast variety is what makes it special. Its all very reasonably priced, which is why I keep coming back here. Perfect after finishing a run around Victoria Park. Its just off the main road, too, so if you sit outside its not too loud.

2 /5 Hafsa Khatun: I ordered the GG Royale (9.5) – 2 poached eggs on sourdough with smoked salmon & hollandaise (exactly as described on the menu). What I was served, however, was a plate covered in an overpowering vinegar-based decorative sauce and a side salad, neither of which were mentioned anywhere. The bread was drenched in the sauce and completely inedible. When I raised this with staff, I was met with irritation rather than any attempt to resolve the issue. One member even said, “Next time ask for the sauce to be removed” -a sauce that isn’t even listed on the menu. Instead of being offered a replacement or solution, I was still charged for food I could not eat. Incredibly disappointing experience, especially as I had skipped breakfast to come here. Poor customer service and misleading menu descriptions.

3 /5 Sukhy: Randomly stumbled across this place & to my delight the food was splendid. Fairly reasonably priced and with the additions of Sea Salt & Black Pepper grinders plus “Encona” Hot Sauce, it really topped itself. However I genuinely disapprove when someone refills a branded bottle of “Encona” in this instance with cheap Chicken Shop Chilli Sauce rather than the real McCoy! Real let down for a Hot Sauce Fan & was really swayed by the salt & pepper grinders, shame the chilli let it down! May give it another go sometime soon.. if they replace the toilet seat with one that actually fits!

5 /5 SAM BAIJAL: A friend recommended this spot, and it’s quickly become my go-to brunch place in London. The food is fresh, the portions are generous, and the variety on the menu is impressive—all at great value. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, but what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional service. Staff like Nafisa and Florin greet you with the warmest smiles, no matter how busy it gets. Their genuine hospitality makes every visit feel special. I honestly couldn’t recommend this place more—give it a try and you’ll see exactly why.

5 /5 tom faudree: Hands down the best place I’ve eaten in London. The sausage, egg, and bacon sandwich on a fresh bap bun was absolutely unreal. Perfectly cooked sausage, crispy bacon, a runny egg, and a soft but sturdy bun that held everything together—simple, classic, and executed flawlessly. No overthinking, no gimmicks—just proper comfort food done right. This is the kind of breakfast sandwich you think about later in the day and wish you were eating again. If you’re in London and want something genuinely satisfying, do not skip The Full Monty. I’d come back to London just to eat this sandwich again.
