Nour

Tucked away on Hoe Street in Walthamstow, Nour has established itself as the neighborhood’s go-to spot for proper weekend brunching. The space blends contemporary elegance with warmth—marble-look tables, cream walls accented with gold touches, and a soothing water feature that adds an unexpected touch of tranquility to the buzz of conversation.

The menu leans into hearty, satisfying dishes designed for lingering over. The Golden Velvet Eggs live up to their luxurious name, arriving as perfectly spiraled clouds of creamy scrambled eggs paired with a tangy labneh that spreads like the richest cream cheese. For something more substantial, the sandwiches deliver—tender smoked brisket comes dressed in a dark chocolate BBQ sauce, while the roast lamb melt oozes with gruyere and gets a welcome kick from dijon mustard.

What sets Nour apart is its embrace of the joyfully chaotic brunch experience. This is a place built for catching up with friends, where extra chairs get dragged to already-crowded tables and stories get the dramatic retellings they deserve. Groups gather around colorful drinks—think strawberry matchas and indulgent Terry’s orange hot chocolates—while new parents bounce babies in the quieter corners.

If you’re looking for somewhere in Walthamstow that welcomes big personalities and bigger appetites, Nour fits the bill perfectly. The generous portions mean you can skip dinner plans, and the walk-in-friendly vibe keeps things relaxed. It’s a welcome antidote to the area’s occasionally too-cool-for-school reputation.
