The ultimate all-rounder, Babylon is an all-day cafe and restaurant in Raynes Park that’s worth spending a morning, afternoon, or casual evening in. It’s a 15-minute bus ride away from Wimbledon’s centre, and there’ll often be suburban mums catching up over oat milk lattes and a slice of carrot cake, and locals popping in for a speedy chickpea salad lunch on their way home from the post office. Our favourite place to sit is on one of the tables by the window for maximum people-watching. The menu has a little bit of everything and surprisingly, things like a full English breakfast are just as good as the seared scallops. It’s a popular place so on weekends you’ll want to book ahead.
