If you live a considerable distance from your family home, you miss out on certain things.
Whether it's Sunday roast, or just flopping on the sofa and watching rubbish on the telly. Since making the move across the Irish Sea, I've been looking for a juice bar to replace Elles Cafe in Galway. I even got a nutri-bullet as a present, and still couldn't properly recreate the familiar flavours.
But alas, I found one, and it was right under my nose.
Ginger & Mint, situated at the start of Park Road in Crouch End, is juice heaven. The brightly decorated café has a mish-mash of wooden furniture, pastel painted wood wall panels, and massive front windows, which makes it feel really airy.
A huge counter contains the fresh fruit and veggies, and shelves around the front of the café stock healthy snacks like Bounce Protein Balls, Proper Corn, nuts, flapjacks etc. Behind the counter, several massive blackboards boast an impressive 90 juices. If you're feeling peckish, Ginger & Mint also offer salad boxes, a choice of two different hot dishes prepared daily and served with brown rice, sandwiches and wraps, and dairy free and gluten options.
Crouch End may have more cafés then I'm having dissertation breakdowns, and Ginger & Mint might just be off the beaten track of The Broadway, but this little café is perfect to get some of your five-a-day.
