Forgetful staff (2 items never came after asking repeatedly, had to get up as they wouldn't show with card machine for bill). The "Full Dynamo" was super dry, which was not the case before. Seems to be slipping this place....

Food and service was really nice, unfortunately we were served coffee in paper cups while everyone else had proper china cups. I understand the restaurant was packed but they could have bought more cups.

Dynamo never fails to disappoint! Perfect place for a brunch whether it be with a large group or just a couple of you. Service is always great, a must visit in Putney!

We were in on a busy Sunday morning for brunch with friends. The food is alright, but over priced for the portions that you get. Drinks were good, but very slow to come out.

Bad lighting - far too dark. Bad service - trainee staff only. No real atmosphere. Bad cocktails made by an inexperienced barman. Alright pizzas - I'll give it that.

Great place for brunch with friends, lovely food and pleasant atmosphere. The service was good and the place is dog friendly! Definitely get the full dynamo for breakfast.

Although the staff were lovely individuals they were very under staffed, we waited a really long time just for a drink, one of our meals arrived while the rest of us were half way through eating. The toilets were flooded, which meant a queue for the disabled toiled which was absolutely filthy (due to muddy cyclists and no time for them to be monitored by staff) Service charge was added to the bill - think that was a bit optimistic! Food was nice. Staff were nice - just service was poor.

Lovely food. Service a little slow. Quite a loud environment, but one of the best places to eat either breakfast, lunch or dinner in Putney.

Most importantly, it was fun. The breakfast menu is original: the service charming; and the clientele cosmopolitan. Putney is a very competitive location, but Dynamo is distinctive enough to succeed.

The food was great, some of the best poached eggs i've ever had. However, drop one point because I think £6 for a average glass of watermelon juice 'smoothie' is very steep!

Great new cafe restaurant serving breakfast and light meals. Has a cycling theme and attracts loads of passing bikers especially on weekends. Food is fresh and exciting, they use chilli a lot to spice things up and the coffees are amazing. With any new place they are still learning and finding there way a bit and service could improve... otherwise a thoroughly enjoyable meal - Well done!

Yummy pizza, friendly service, nice place and not busy at all on a Saturday evening, which made for a pleasant relaxed atmosphere with the front of the restaurant opened out onto the sunny street. Delicious gelato for pud!

Great food, very accommodating and brilliant service. We wanted to sit outside and as soon as a table was free they came and helped us to move. Would highly recommend. Would definitely recommend going for brunch.

Yummy food for brunch. The options on the high street can get busy at times, but Dynamo is really spacious with plenty of room. We had a baby with us, they had high chairs. It's a bike themed cafe with bike racks just inside the door, but you don't have to be wearing lycra to fit in

Good for brunch but gets really noisy as it is usually full of families so becomes difficult to talk. Food is great, coffee can take a while during busy periods as there is only one machine/barista (as of June 16).

The pizza and salad were amazing! The drinks are quite pricey at 5.95 for a pint of wild beer. Our small plates also seemed to have been forgotten so came with our main. Can't fault the food though it was very nice

The food was good and atmosphere friendly at first. Staff lovely but extremely slow to take orders/clear tables. We had an issue with a table of drunk teachers next to us who were being extremely loud and rude when we politely asked one man in particular to stop shouting everything he was saying. The managers watched but didn't say a word until these teachers had gone. They came and apologised and commented on how rude they had been, but it was too little too late for us - they should have controlled the obvious noise if they had been aware of it. It was a shame because the other table ruined our meal. We will definitely come back to try brunch though, perhaps the other guests will be less lairy then!

Really delicious pizzas with unusual combos and a salted caramel choc brownie with homemade ice cream to dream of! Service a bit slow so be prepared to keep asking for what you need,

First time for dinner last night, had previously been for breakfast, which is very good. Had some really good sharing plates to start followed by really good sour dough pizzas. A really friendly team, who all have a good sense of humour. If you haven't been you should, breakfast or lunch/ dinner. It's really good, and really good coffee!

Great pizzas and salads and extremely charming service at this cycling cafe/restaurant. The menu is a bit limited, but what they do they do very well. I'll definitely be coming back.

Pizza was tasty, although maybe a tad too cheesy. Service could have been a little better...never nice to see someone else getting their drinks first when you have been waiting longer for your order.

A great spot for lunch when it is sunny as you can sit out the front. The service was great and we had a super food salad and a green salad both of which were delicious.
