Yesterday we went along to Zest on Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma-Gate, to try out their breakfast/brunch offering. They serve all day breakfast and brunch as well as all day 2 for 1 cocktails. It’s a lovely environment and decorated very prettily as you can see.


I found the prices very reasonable, and tried the Open Steak Sandwich (on Sourdough with caramelised onion, sweet chilli BBQ and salad) for £9.95. You can also add chips for an additional 99p.

We also tried the Chargrilled Chicken Flatbread (with smoked harissa houmous, kimchi salad and mint sauce). It’s not one I would have chosen (not keen on houmous!) but my friend loved it and plans to return with her family, which I feel is an excellent endorsement!

My other friend went for the Full English which was sizeable as you can see. At £12.95 I also thought this was reasonably priced and also comes with free tea or coffee (it’s not mentioned on the menu, so make sure you ask about this).

Since we were having a girls’ day out, we also indulged in Zest’s 2 for 1 cocktails. We tried out the Apple and Raspberry Bramble, priced at £12.95 for two which I would recommend. We also felt we should try the cocktail ‘Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma-Gate’ which was served in these curious glasses and was very fruity!

You can see Zest’s menus online here. I also took photos of the physical menus which I will paste below.

We were invited to visit Zest for the purposes of this review, but as always, all opinions are my own.
