About this restaurant

A healthy, homemade flavour comes to the London enclave of Islington thanks to The Blue Legume Café, Restaurant and Juice Bar. Situated on the always busy Upper Street, The Blue Legume is an all day venue where guests enjoy everything from leisurely breakfasts accompanied by the broadsheets to quick business lunches and dinners with friends. The quirky interior of The Blue Legume suits its wholesome approach to food well somehow, the exposed brick walls, scrubbed wooden flooring and mix ‘n’ match interior design featuring mirrors mounted on the ceiling, blackboard special menus and painted wood furnishings in keeping with the home-spun food and drinks that are the venue’s real selling point. The Blue Legume sells a wide variety of healthy Mediterranean dishes ranging from burgers for meat eaters and veggies alike to hearty salads and simple main dishes featuring wholesome ingredients from quality sources.

Really enjoyed the Blue Legume - they are very busy on Sundays for brunch so even though we had booked we had to wait a bit, but not long at all. Brunch was very tasty and great value. For a 2 Mediterranean Brunches and 4 coffees we paid £24. Beautiful decor and atmosphere - I would recommend this for brunch or a nice weekend lunch. We were at our table for over 3 hours and not rushed at all or asked to leave - great for us but might explain the queues!

I went here with a friend for brunch, the food was excellent but we seemed to be at a forgotten table so the service was quite slow although the staff were friendly.

This place is always busy when I walk past so my parents and I thought we'd give it a go and we're very glad we did! The service was friendly, the place has a nice atmosphere, the food was delicious and fresh and excellent value, especially for the quality of the whole experience. The coffees had a layer of quite firm milk foam which was excellent as it kept to coffees warmer for longer and were served with a small biscuit - lovely touch!

Great little place for brunch on any day of the week in Islington. Sit at the back if you can - the skylight makes it bright and warm. Lovely decor. The food was really great with lots and lots of vegetarian and vegan options. No more expensive than anywhere else. Book ahead if you can as at the weekend, by 11am, there are queues going way out the door. Booking doesn't mean that you don't have to queue though as we had to wait at least 15 minutes before being seated.. Quite noisy but I guess it adds to the atmosphere. We wil definatelyl be going back.
