The Barnsbury Grocer chocolate brownie
I realised I had to try this as soon as I saw it. It's a good, basic freshly made brownie - no nuts, no fancy orange flavourings, not too sweet, just fudgey and glorious. The top is slightly flakey and a lovely deep brown colour, as it should be, and the smooth texture and bitter dark chocolate flavour hint at a classiness not present in the other brownies I've tasted so far. And as it's not particularly sweet I don't have that gooey sick, overindulged feeling afterwards. In fact, I could probably have another one right now without regretting it later, and it doesn't break the bank at £1.50. Very nice, but slightly lacking in excitement - 4/5.

Hi - landed hear searching for the Barnsbury Grocer online. May I suggest trying the chocolate brownies at Monmouth Cafe on Monmouth Street.
The best I have ever tasted!
