Heavenly Desserts, Stratford new brunch menu review

I recently visited Heavenly Desserts in Stratford to try its newly launched brunch menu. 

The restaurant is located just a short walk from Stratford International station and Westfield Stratford City. 

I took my boyfriend and we arrived shortly after 10.30am and were the second customers there. 

The parlour has booths and regular tables (Image: Olivia Carter) The Stratford parlour has both indoor and outdoor seating, and has a modern, classy interior. 

We were sat quickly and handed our menus. 

I ordered a mint tea and my boyfriend went for the berry and oat granola smoothie. 

The smoothie was refreshing and a generous size, and somewhat filling as a result. 

The smoothie was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy (Image: Olivia Carter) For our brunch, I opted for the vegan breakfast with tomato, mushroom, hash brown bites, sausages and beans. 

I had originally hoped to have the caramelised biscuit and banana overnight oats but unfortunately it was not available at the time of my visit. 

The vegan breakfast sat on a slice of toast (Image: Olivia Carter) My boyfriend ordered the chocolate and banana french toast and banana gelato. 

The vegan breakfast was a lovely savoury option, with the spiced beans adding a comforting warmth and something different to the meal. 

The French toast was impressively stacked and looked as rich as it was.

My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed the banana gelato, saying how he's "never had anything like it before". 

The staff were attentive, checking in throughout the meal to see how we were liking things. 

It is a rare thing to find a quiet yet enjoyable brunch spot in London, and Heavenly Desserts presents itself as the perfect spot if you're starting your day out.
