  Mortlake High Street, Mortlake, London SW14

  The Corner Café

  5 pubdoggy am 05.12.2007

  Mortlake and East Sheen have a surprisingly small number of quality places to go for lunch. There's the usual chains of Waitrose (terrible sandwiches), Costa and Nero (meh), but very few good independent eateries. The Corner Café has been recently refurbished and taken on new management which, as a devotee for a year beforehand, filled me with dread. Some of the fears are founded - the service can be painfully slow if they are busy, the kitchen regularly makes the dining area smell of smoke, and the prices are probably a little on the high side BUT they do serve, in my opinon, the best lunchtime food in the area (Gusto & Relish down the road is equally good but they only offer takeaway, the prices are extortionate and the staff a little 'snooty').
  
  The menu has Sandwiches from £4.50 (eat-in) and hearty, large hot meals (amazing meatballs) from £5.00. There's a good selection of teas, coffee, fruit juices and smoothies as well as excellent home-made cakes and pastries.
  
  The staff are very friendly, the service is normally very good, but if you arrive at peak times (12-1:30) you may very well get frustrated.
  
  Overall - it's a fantastic little place that has a core of regulars (as well as occasional famous people - Take That, Will Young, Anneka Rice all been spotted) that, in terms of food quality, beats everything else in the area.
