You'll find The Other Kitchen nestled inside Other House on Harrington Gardens, a neighbourhood spot that feels more like a mate's living room than a corporate café. It's the kind of place where you can actually have a conversation without shouting over an industrial espresso machine, though the coffee itself is genuinely excellent. The menu changes with the seasons and leans into proper ingredients—nothing fussy, just well-executed food that works whether you're grabbing breakfast before hitting the V&A or settling in for an unhurried lunch. It's quietly become a favourite with locals who'd rather sit here than queue outside the chains dotted around South Ken.
