Cut The Mustard - Wandsworth

The sourdough bread is very fresh and the ingredients in the BLT were nice. The hot sandwiches were very good. The coffee was well made.

I paid £4.10 for a takeaway iced latte in a budget-friendly neighborhood. It seems outrageous. I'm not sure if they charge more for dine-in, but the current owner has eliminated indoor seating, so eating inside isn't even an option. Outdoor seating consists of only shared, unstable benches. This is my local spot, so I'm extremely disappointed. It doesn't seem like customers are a priority here.

I came across this restaurant while walking to the park. I was served by a friendly woman who made me a delicious oat milk flat white. I regret not asking for the name of the coffee beans, as it was really good. I also purchased a tasty dark sourdough loaf for just over £4. It's nutty and chewy, perfect on its own or as the star of a dish. The loaf was large and seemed well worth the cost compared to supermarket bread. I also indulged in a lemon and polenta cake, as well as a salted caramel brownie, which made for a delightful afternoon tea with my housemate. The selection of sweet and savory treats was excellent, and I plan on returning to try more. I'm happy to have discovered this restaurant, conveniently located for grabbing breakfast or lunch on the way to the park. I noticed they also have a small selection of beers in their fridge. I will definitely be coming back.

Disappointing service, food and coffee. From entry the person serving us had the expectation that we should know everything. We were told only takeaways but they offered plates to some locals. The pastries are all burnt or chewy on the top. Coffee was tasteless and because they only use full fat milk which overpowers their beans. A Customer returned a sandwich which had been opened and handled and they just put it back in the fridge.

After following on Instagram for some time I finally had chance to make it to Cut The Mustard. I only stayed for coffee and cake (I got the last slice of carrot cake which was delicious) but I will be back for brunch! The interior is cute and laid back, and the service from the guys behind the counter was great. I also managed to get the last loaf of porridge sourdough which has been amazing to use at home. Can’t wait to return next time and support the business!
