Birdhouse on St Johns Hill in Clapham junction is pretty cute. Brunchy menu items with a selections of bocaditos (Cuban sandwiches). I went for the pulled pork beans on toast and added a slow cooked egg as a side. The process of a slow cooked egg is quite long from what i know, its cooked in the shell on a low eat in a water bath so that the egg is cooked evenly and it's then cracked which leave's what looks like a shitty poached egg with uncooked whites. It's actually really lovely, all evenly cooked and incredibly smooth when popped. The beans looked really dry but they actually weren't at all and there was a butt load of pulled pork running all through it, my only issue was the lack of seasoning and the quality of the bread. Possibly the edition of crushed crackling for texture and saltiness and maybe a thick piece of really great quality sourdough would have made this breakfast perfect. Ignoring that, it was all very nice! I enjoyed this with a soy flat white. (coffee = www.climpsonandsons.com).
I liked the decor, the staff seemed cool, it had a relaxed vibe, it's cheap, the coffee's good & they have wifi. Check it out.
Ok.
Cute.

You should probably go, it's better than Ben's Canteen.
