Brunch at Blueprint Café

When the sun is out, a table at Blueprint Café overlooking the Thames is a glorious spot to enjoy a meal. And it’s been my experience that the café’s Head Chef Martyn Moody’s meals are definitely enjoyable. His new Saturday brunch menu is a guaranteed weekend delight. As for the weather, there are no guarantees, but the crisp blue skied Saturday I paid a visit was gorgeous.

So a sunshiny Saturday afternoon tucking into a big plate o’ brunch – could it get better? Sure. Add the £15 unlimited Bloody Mary – and a fiercely spiced one at that – to the mix and voila good times.

Hardly my first time at Blueprint Café or even the first visit this year, I’ve come to expect top quality but fairly basic food to be served in its airy dining room. The new brunch menu is no exception.

I found my Wye Valley asparagus with Parmesan custard and crispy Parma ham (£7.50) a deliciously seasonal way to commence my meal. Topped with fresh dill, a mild and creamy Kedgeree with hay smoked North Sea haddock and Burford brown eggs and topped (£6.50 as a starter, £12 as a main) was just the sort of comfort food item I’d hoped to come across when reading the menu. The flow of refill Bloody Maries never dried up during my meal, even as I finished my selection of sorbets (£6.50 for three scoops; I got apple, passion fruit, and coconut).

I had a great time and a lovely dine. Judging from good vibes in the restaurant while I was there – lots of laughs, glass tinkling (Blueprint does unlimited Prosecco too) – I reckon everybody else would have said the same.

Brunch is available every Saturday from 10am to 2.30pm.

Blueprint Café is located at the Design Museum, 28 Shad Thames, SE1 2YD.
