History

Established in 2003.

One evening over a family dinner in late 2002, the idea to open a café went from being a long held ‘lovely idea’ to a plan of action.

.

When 45 Englands Lane came onto the market we knew it was the perfect spot, and in June 2003 we opened our doors for the first time.

.

Our determination from that time to this has been the same: to source and supply our customers with great food, made from premium ingredients; serve up quality coffee made with care and expertise; and to create a warm, friendly environment with people who enjoy what they do. Essentially, the kind of café we enjoyed going to, and of which there seemed to be very few around.

.

Over the years we have built relationships with some fantastic suppliers who are as dedicated as we are. We take pride in cooking with fresh produce every day, and are happy to hear that our efforts are rewarded, with customers travelling across town for a taste of our American Pancakes and ever-​popular Full English and brunch specials.

I’ll keep going back here because the food is solid and well-​priced. I’m dinking the star bc the staff seems to have issues cracking a smile. My husband and I were here last Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. I got the cauliflower and celeriac soup and it was great: a hearty bowl with 2 pieces of brown bread and soft butter. The soup itself was rich with a smoky flavour. Yum. I also got the sides at the front: roasted cauliflower and pomegranate arils and roasted acorn squash and tomato. Again, great savoury flavours.
I got the raw chocolate cake last time I was here and god it was delicious: so rich, I forgot it was raw!
One fault is the flapjack they sell in the window. It was good the first time– the appropriate sweet flavour– and the second time, an earthy, savoury taste, which is totally wrong in a flapjack.

Loved the english breakfast, also got a decent green juice.
Prices very reasonable and opens at 7am, great for jetlagged travellers.
The service is a little unusual but gets the job done

This charming little café is located near Belsize Park. I went here for weekend brunch. They have an amazing selection of brunch foods. From full English breakfast to American pancakes, you really can’t go wrong with any item on the menu. It’s also close to Primrose Hill, which is wonderful for a stroll after all of the food you just consumed.

The full veggie is delicious too (meatless version of the full English). The veggie sausages are delish and they let you choose how you want your eggs (poached!).

Every other café in England’s lane is wonderful so I don’t know why you would bother coming to Chamomile. The service is the worst around, the food is only okay and when we went back to try a second time we got asked to wait 20 mins for a table for 3 and watched as they gave away multiple tables for 4 to couples. When we reminded them as they clearly forgot about us (although we were standing infront of the til) they tried to shove us in on the same table as another family. So we left and there was no remorse from them whatsoever. Highly recommend Ginger & White or Black Truffle or probably Tescos rather than Chamomile! Plenty of great breakfast choices and friendly service elsewhere in the gorgeous England’s lane

Why argue with the general consensus of all the other reviewers. Get the pancakes! Some times cafes just do not do ‘american pancakes’ well but Chamomile is not guilty of this. I don’t know what they put in the batter but it is delicious. Order a side of bacon while you’re at it! You can’t have maple syrup but a deliciously piggy accompaniment.
Chamomile is a solid breakfast option and I’d definitely come back. It’s definitely a bit ‘yummy mummy’ crowd but once you get past that, it’s an awesome place to get brunch.

Nothing but good things to say about this place! As an American visiting London, I was very happy with the food. My wife and I both had breakfast sandwiches on baguettes. I really enjoyed that the fried egg is broken in the sandwich, very tasty!

The café is very cozy and the staff are very friendly. I ordered the full England breakfast and it was very yummy and hearty. Bring your appetite for the meal. I paired it with a pot of Earl Grey. It’s definitely a good start of my day and weekend. Will go back again as a regular.

Went here for brunch after a walk around Regents Park and Primrose Hill. It’s a cute little café for breakfast, lunch or just a cup of tea with something sweet.
Great service, friendly staff. I had the goat cheese pesto salad and it was awesome! I’d like to come back for breakfast sometime.

Went here twice for breakfast when we were in town a couple weeks ago and staying at The Marriott’s Regent Park. Unless I’m traveling for work and thus on an expense account, I refuse to eat outrageously expensive breakfasts in hotels, so luckily we found Chamomile to help us avoid that problem.
So, nice enough décor: A converted store front with a pastry case in the front of the place and a giant espresso machine behind. Seating in tables up front and then a smaller room overlooking a garden in the back. It seemed to be a seat yourself sort of place and then the waitress would wander over, hand you menus, ask what you wanted to drink, and return. First day we were there, that took awhile, but they were pretty busy, i.e., not an empty table.
Breakfast menu is pretty big but also typical: Crepes, full English breakfast, pancakes, etc. My son had pancakes the first day and proclaimed them good. I had the full English and it was delicious, I mean, maybe my eggs were a bit runny, but I hadn’t specified, so I’m not going to complain. Bacon was thick, juicy, and smoky sweet and the tomatoes had a spice blend sprinkled over them with a bit of oregano and were super fresh. Wife had some sort of eggs benedict concoction and said it was good. Juices were very fresh, my orange juice both days was fresh-​squeezed. Coffee was excellent: I had a double espresso the first day and a cappucino (served in what was apparently a small soup tureen) the second and the flavors were spot on, not burned or overdone.
I had the pancakes on day two and they were, as my son had said, very good: Small but thick and fluffy, sprinkled with powdered sugar with bananas and strawberries on the side. Definitely a re-​do if we ever go back.
All in all, a great little find, and very happy we went as the cost was 1⁄3 what it would have been had we eaten in the hotel.

Cute little café.
Nothing too special, not over priced.
If I lived close, I can see myself going there once in a while.
Pretty good indeed.

There are many cafes in the Belsize Park/​Primrose Hill area. There are probably 4 on England’s Lane alone. I have dined here now twice. Once for breakfast– where I had the veggie breakfast and the veggie sausages were not to my liking and most recently for tea and a cake. The chocolate cake I had was dry and cold. It’s not that I expected it to be warm per say– but it was refrigerator cold. If I wanted to have refrigerated cake I could have provided that to myself without paying a premium. I did not find the service very good either– once our waitress disappeared on her break it was difficult getting the attention of anyone else as they all worked hard to avoid contact as they weren’t our original waitress. I am more keen to try other cafes on England’s Lane and further down Primrose Hill.

Lovely staff and sweet local restaurant. I tend to get coffee from here as I prefer to give it business than the Starbucks a few doors down. However their coffee can be a bit hit and miss. Most of the food is good, and they use free range products.

A solid 4 star just off the outskirts of Belsize Park’s mini high street. We’ve read the praises of brunch but fellow Unilocaler Melizza & I were after a bigger bite and went with burgers that came with a big pile of sweet fries and salad and was just what we were after.
I was playing eye-​spy with the food around us and had a little pasta/​breakfast/​risotto envy, so I think I’ll need to make a trip on back in the near future. We got there about 1230 and there was a blip of a rush as it looked like there was a school nearby that had a break about that time but the kids cleared out as quick as they came and it was back to normal in no time.
It looks like there was free wireless available (ask at counter for password?) and this could be a good place to sit and get some laptop time in if you get a good table.
Not the cheapest café on the block, but every once in a while you need to pay for the atmosphere, it’s good for the senses. Cute pastries in the counter on the way out as well!

Got there before the usual rush. Sat in a corner at the back of the place with my friend. On the expensive side but I think it’s worth it every once in a while and for the quality.
Friend ordered the pancakes and I ordered the english breakfast. So much food on my plate but very tasty. Had a bite of the pancakes too, yum. We had cappuccinos that weren’t bad. I am a california coffee snob so don’t listen to me.
Would like to go back one morning before the crowd again and try something new.

The banana and stawberry pancakes here are to die for. They aren’t the usual crepes that you’ll encounter in other parts of London. These are proper American style pancakes, maple syrup and all.
The full English breakfast wasn’t half bad either. My eyes were too big for my plate so in the battle of Tisha vs the pancakes and the full English breakie. The full English won, hands down.
*raises fist in the air*
Until next time, full English! Until next time…

Mmmmm… This place is nice. Actually it is better than nice. Chamomile Café is a great place to come for a morning or lunch time bite. My first experience was for breakfast, and although not greasy spoon cheap, being smack in the middle of Belsize Park seemingly millions of miles away from Chavdom, the extra couple of £‘s are worth it. Indeed Chamomile was full of young couples and families that looked as if they were pushing up the class ladder. Working class notions behind us, the menu had a healthy feel that crossed into the appearance and taste of the food. I recommend the granola, exotic fruit and natural yogurt offering. It is both large, impressive and delightfully tasty, with at least seven different fruits. My cheese and ham toasty was very good too. Fresh bread is baked every day, and I cannot help but applaud my overall experience.
Great café.

Brrrrrrrrunnnnnnnnch!
This morning my tummy woke me up with this audible request. I’m sure you know the feeling, and therefore you must also know that some sort of immediate egg/​toast/​pancake/​oj/​coffee combination is the only cure.
It just so happens that this morning’s Chamomile Café combination included free range eggs from Freedom Farms in Whales, fresh fruit and vegetables that were delivered the same morning from Spitalfields market, and fresh fish delivered from the Southbank Fish Merchants. The menu is filled with plenty of fresh, organic and delicious options. Mmmmm so guuud!
Oh, and they have American pancakes on the menu. With fresh bananas, strawberries and blueberries. If you haven’t noted anything else in this review, note this. They’re legit.
When the cacophony of stomach demands, I would head to Chamomile immediately, if not sooner. You can thank me later.

A charming, relaxed café which is locally reknowned for its mixture of very healthy and very unhealthy breakfasts and brunches, at very reasonable prices.
It is a great little spot– a perfect morning place to read the papers and have a cup of tea. My mum and I always go to Chamomile when we meet up– it is a good place to start off the day and is perfectly positioned on England’s Lane, so very close to Primrose Hill, Regent’s Park Road and Belsize Park Village.
We always have the same thing– we share a pot of tea, I have their full English breakfast and my mum has the healthier options– juice, muesli and yoghurt and then smoked salmon on rye. Both options are delicious (their bacon is perfectly cooked) They have a selection of newspapers at the front of the café which you can pick up and read when you come in.
