Small place but good food - Edit
Had a very good hummus toast & matcha (good quality too, as a matcha addict). Place was a lot smaller than expected so be prepared to queue, staff was a bit stressed but did their job & got the food very quickly

If you fancy a porridge - Edit
Their porridge is based on oat milk, which makes it a shame that only one of the options is offered with a vegan variation. Non the less it was delicious and perfectly balanced with the amount of fruit and sweetness! Very good coffee, nicely frothed oat milk.

Deliciously Sweet Vegan Porridge - Edit
26 Grains is a lovely little cafe in the heart of Neals Yard. The cafe itself is very small and can be quite cramped if you sit outside but there are few tables inside. I ordered the apricot porridge which could be made vegan and it was a really decent portion and was so tasty and filling. I was quite disappointed to see that they only had one vegan option though, online and in the past they had more vegan options on offer. They do have plenty of vegetarian options though. My mum had scrambled eggs with sourdough and she really enjoyed it. All of the food seemed good quality. I would say that the food, for what it is, is too expensive though. My porridge was £9.50 which I think is very overpriced, even though is was delicious. The staff were really friendly though and the overall experience was nice. I would return and I would recommend it but I just wish that they had more vegan options because currently, porridge is the only option.

good quality & minimal (maybe too minimal?) - Edit
I really wanted to visit this place!
Read more26 grains is a veeeeery small restaurant located in the beautiful Neal’s Yard.
I went there to have breakfast but unfortunately they didn’t have any vegan cake or biscuits 🥲
I tried the rhubarb porridge which was very good matcha latte with oat milk.
Hope they’ll add more vegan options to their menu… 🤞🏼
Pros: Food quality, Plant-based drinks
Cons: Limited vegan options, Very small place

Finely executed lunch - Edit
One of the finest bread toast I ever got: Fresh ricotta, garlic chard, roasted hazelnut and black chili. The dish was greatly executed and the atmosphere around the restaurant in Neal's yard is simply amazing.

26 Grains is a great place for both veg and non-veg breakfast or brunch. Nordic Pear porridge with coconut yogurt was simply amazing. The iced coffee and matcha are also worth a try.

Cozy, lovely, welcoming - Edit
I'm a porridge fanatic so I was extremely excited for my Nordic Pear, and oh my, this was an artisan porridge goodness. Made with coconut milk and spices, topped with cacao crumble, coconut yogurt and toasted seeds, this was some of the nicest porridge I've ever had. My boyfriend was impressed too, he went for a month's special porridge and he said it was amazing as well. We both enjoyed our time at 26 Grains, the service was very very sweet, we were served by the owner herself and everything was just so cozy, homey and beautiful. I'm definitely going back next time I'm in London and you should too!

Great breakfast and lunch spot in beautiful Neal's Yard - Edit
Quick, easy, delicious and beautiful oatmeal for breakfast or lunch. Because the oats are soaked in non-dairy milk before cooking, the bowls are always very creamy and satisfying. This is a go-to spot for a filling and warming meal.

Cons: Not vegetarian/vegan
