I recently headed down to @tradingpostcoffeeroasters to try some of the new additions to their brunch menu. I already knew they did great coffee, so I was excited to finally give their food a try and it didn’t disappoint

Their Ship Street site is huge, spread across two floors, with a rustic yet inviting interior, gorgeous chandeliers, and plenty of natural light. The overall vibe makes it a perfect spot for a relaxed brunch or coffee catch up, and it’s also a great space for working or just unwinding with a book, something I noticed plenty of customers doing while we were there

We sampled a selection of their new dishes and drinks, including: Turkish Eggs – Poached eggs with sautéed green peppers, feta, and Greek yoghurt on pitta, finished with chilli butter and fresh herbs�~ Strawberry & Matcha French Toast – Brioche French toast topped with matcha cream, fresh strawberries, and a lemon-strawberry coulis�~ Tiramisu French Toast – Brioche French toast with white chocolate mascarpone, cocoa, and Green Monkey espresso anglaise�~ Coconut Chilli Prawn Noodle Salad – Crispy chilli prawns with rice noodles, sugar snap peas, fresh herbs, crispy onions, and a coconut, chilli jam & lime dressing The portions were incredibly generous, we definitely struggled to finish everything! The standout for me was the Tiramisu French Toast: the flavours were spot on, and the white chocolate mascarpone was especially delicious. The Turkish Eggs were another highlight, rich, vibrant, and full of flavour.

We also tried a few of their new drinks, including the Strawberry & Mint Iced Lemonade, the Maple Cream Cold Brew (so good!), and the Iced Strawberry Matcha, which I really enjoyed

Overall, we had a great experience. There’s something for everyone here, even if you’re not a coffee lover and the new menu additions are full of fresh, summery flavours. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking to try something new this season

I was invited to try this one. As always, all opinions are my own.
