Melange - Crouch End

A great restaurant with a delicious menu and lovely service.

Best brunch in north London. The staff are amazing and so helpful. Food is delicious. Always go there when in town.

Lovely staff and marvellous food We loved it - must come back!

One of our party is a coeliac and the menu was very clearly labelled. She had a great choice and the food was delicious.

Always good food and great, unpretentious atmosphere. Excellent place to eat.

Excellent quality menu, served piping hot by staff eager to please. I highly recommend the seafood risotto and Mediterranean Fish Stew. The restaurant has a very relaxed atmosphere without pumping music. Just cool sounds.

It was our 3rd visit, and as ever it was fantastic. Beautiful food, great atmosphere and prompt but not intrusive service..... Thank you, we will be back

The cream brule was top drawer. Steak was good too.

Nice comfortable place lovely staff and good well priced food

We have met some old friends for dinner at Melange. There was seven of us, all different age and food preferences. The menu looked very good with lots of choices, and we all have found something we liked. All food was very good quality, but some portions were quite small. A few people still felt hungry after the starter and the main course. The atmosphere was nice, and the team was very friendly and attentive. Overall was a good experience. Personally, I would come back with a group of friends, but not particularly for a meal with my husband. It wasn't one of those stand out culinary experiences. Thank you for the pleasant evening!

Great service and ambience. Food very good. As a vegetarian the choice for me is a little limited. I liked one of the salads they no longer do, however the Antipasto Vegetariano was very good.

We've never been disappointed with this excellent restaurant. Super food and friendly service.

Nice atmosphere, good food and pleasant and helpful service. My risotto was excellent.

Very friendly service and a good value two course deal

Melange is the only restaurant that I’ve found in Crouch End where the noise level enables my friends and I to hear each other talk . The food is always very good, the staff friendly, efficient and accommodating. Please don’t change Melange!

Good food with excellent service. Sorry the menu has been reduced.

Good experience at lunch with friends.Good food and very good value.

It was lovely and the staff were lovely too BUT clearly untrained as they reached across my husbands face to take an empty glass (unoccupied seat on other side so no reason to) and interrupted us when I was mid story to my party to ask if we wanted dessert.

Another good visit, great food, good service and value for money

Brilliant food, great service, and good atmosphere! Looking forward to next visit

Great food and good service, I’d defo visit again 👍👍

Great food and amazing service, kitchen can be a tad loud at times

Good food small desserts staff great Altogether a nice evening

Table wasn’t ready even though we were 10 minutes late which was disappointing. Food and service good but have had better visits to the restaurant. Overall a good rating.

Never a disappointing meal, very friendly & helpful staff. Tasty!

Lovely food excellent service and ambience - would definitely recommend

Great service and food - smoothie blender noise a bit loud

The two of us were there for a late lunch and there were very few people in the retaurant, so it was quiet.

Wonderful time. Food amazing! Definitely recommend a visit to this restaurant!

Bit pricey for bistro type food but overall good experience.

Was lovely can't say any more thanks for a great meal

Good food lovely staff and nice ambience. We go often.

The staff are amazing. They honestly made all the difference to our night. I love this place for food and ambiance but staff make it c

Great menu, expertly cooked and presented. Very pleasant staff. 9/10

Excellent food, good value for money, attentive service, love it there!

Delicious food, excellent service. The chef kindly made a steak and chips that was safe for my son who has allergies to milk, eggs and nuts. And they had a safe pudding for him too - sorbet. Would definitely return.

Comfortable, warm dining area, delicious and generous portions. Attentive service. Thank you

Melange has a great atmosphere and lovely food. I had the super greens salad with chicken which was very tasty although the veg was a bit overcooked. My partner had the arrabiata pasta which he enjoyed but was quite a small portion. He finished his meal well before I did. The staff were very helpful and attentive. The only drawback is that the tables are all quite tightly packed in together so you’re pretty close to your neighbours

Yay loved it all - food good, service good. Wheee

Great food and lovely staff accomodated our various dietary needs. Can’t wait to the next visit

Excellent food & coffee, lovely service. More people should come here.

Delicious dishes, nice selection on the menu, attentive, friendly service

As usual Melange always gives excellent service, food and atmosphere thank you.

Friendly staff , lovely ambiance. Great menu and reasonably priced.

As always, good food, good service and a pleasant atmosphere.

Really lovely food. Really lovely staff. We had a super time!

Excellent local restaurant. Service always very good. Pleasant atmosphere and good seating.

Great food and friendly helpful staff. Wide selection on the menu and the set menu is brilliant for value and choices

A lovely afternoon! I had not seen my friends for a very long time and we had lots of catching up to do - lots of talking and not very much eating! Our waitress was patience it’s self. At no point were we hurried or pressured. Excellent food made the afternoon a most enjoyable experience. My friends and I will be returning very soon!!

The family gathered together for breakfast to celebrate a birthday. The staff was welcoming and friendly throughout. The breakfast dishes looked pretty but were disappointing taste-wise. Eggs were overcooked, and a replacement set of poached eggs were under-cooked. A number of us had a little ramekin of avocado which tasted of strong garlic but missing any taste of avocado. Most had a small ramekin of yogurt and fruit --- this was a relatively straightforward dish but the idea of it being 'a dish with fruit' seemed like an exaggeration because fruit, in this case, meant one thin strawberry slice and 2 blueberries. Eggs Florentine wasn't like any ever had before - unfortunately not in a good way. It looked pretty but not as an example of Eggs Florentine. The spinach wasn't wilted or otherwise cooked. Instead some spinach leaves were mixed with quinoa, a few walnuts and pecan bits and pomegranate seeds, and presented on a slice of sourdough. The Hollandaise came on the side, as requested, and thank goodness it did because it tasted of nothing any of us could identify. So weird. No one wanted it to eat. Oh well. Two of the party were happy enough with their veggie breakfasts, one liked his grandma's breakfast mostly. The one-year-old enjoyed being in a high chair at the head of the table. There weren't dedicated dishes for Little Ones but that's fine. A baby-cino was made for him, to his delight. For those with hearing challenges, it was not too difficult at the start because the restaurant didn't have many customers then. Later when it filled up, it was noisy and full of the sounds of people enjoying being out together. This also meant the coffee grinder was going a lot of the time, and it is very noisy. Not a problem for some but for anyone with a hearing impairment, it can complicate speech perception. In summary, we enjoyed being out together. The generous space around our table and the friendly wait staff contributed to us having a good-enough time. Would we encourage friends to go there - probably not. Are we likely to return there - no. But it was a special family time anyway!
