From the street, this mini-chain of relaxed cafés looks like a run-of-the-mill yummy-mummy’s hotspot, but to those in the know, it’s actually got some substance to it. Instagram-friendly interiors and an ‘all dogs welcome’ policy have made Megan’s a popular brunch spot (think eggs Benedict and homemade granola), but the rest of the menu also impresses. Come evening, diners can tuck into the likes of deconstructed kebabs and sourdough pizzas, while some of the sites feature pretty outdoor spaces dotted with fairy lights. If you’re in a rush, most of the menu here is available to takeaway, while the selection of coffees and cakes on offer make for a perfect morning pick-me-up.

The kitchen delivers “great” renditions of the Ivy’s trademark “cosy but sophisticated classics”: a Brit take on carpaccio charged with horseradish and mustard cream; crispy duck salad with five-spice dressing; the iconic shepherd’s pie loaded with slow-cooked lamb shoulder, plus desserts such as blackberry sundae. Juices and healthier salads please Chelsea’s fashionistas, breakfast brings in the early birds, and the set menu is “surprisingly economical”.
