HOB, aka Heart Of Balham, refers to the longevity and location of our much-loved eatery, making us a well-established part of the local community. Being the second generation to the success of HOB, my brother and I had a vision from the day we took over the helm from the “Godfather”, our father, Mr A! Growing up in a strongly food-oriented family nurtured our connection with our roots and country of origin, Morocco. Inheriting a successful cafe we embarked on bringing Balham a taste of our upbringing from a North African and Middle-eastern home, we decided to share these flavours by incorporating them within our well-known breakfast and brunch dishes. Upon arrival at HOB, you’ll be greeted by one of our lovely serving staff and experience personal service from a business that still after almost 28 years has a friendly, family atmosphere and where every guest is treated as a part of the HOB family. “Besseha”… heartofbalham Deli and Eatery | Est 1994 113 Balham High Rd | 07459840297 Reservations available: Monday – Friday Delivery available on Deliveroo & Uber Eats 📣 DID YOU KNOW📣 We have DISCOUNTS for NHS worker Good food, good energy, and nowhere else you need Serving up the kind of brunch you’ll be thinking a 📣IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT📣….
