Great coffee and excellent food. Service was a bit slow but very friendly. Nice and close to Novotel if you want an alternative to hotel breakfast.
Great coffee, laid back vibe, friendly staff once you is a regular bruv. They also give you a discount for BYO cup which is good for the environment and those caffeine receptors in your dome!

While the area has a few nice selections for dinner, Southbank is certainly not the place I would venture for brunch/lunch as it features a large number of commercialised restaurants and mediocre food. However, for close place near the cinemas, Merriweather cafe was our pick.
Food: Menu was simple and straightforward, with a main focus on eggs. We ordered 2 open omelettes - 1 mushroom and 1 ham and my other friend ordered poached eggs and sourdough + smoked salmon. Food was definitely satisfying for empty stomachs, with the eggs very well cooked - the omelettes light and fluffy, and the poached eggs cooked for the right amount of time as it had a good run. The toasts had a nice crisp and were not overly crunchy/hard. If anything, the food was good but perhaps a bit too ordinary. I also later ordered a green juice and it was exceptionally refreshing on a humid day (3.5/5)
Service: Good service, the food did not take long to arrive (10-15 mins) and a waiter who was on her break even went out of her way to hand us our menus before returning to her break. Environment was warm and welcoming, definitely kid friendly with many hip, old-school board games. (4/5)
For Southbank, Merriweather is not a bad option.
