Listen, we're the kind of people who usually treats salad like a punishment for last night’s takeaway sins. You know the drill: sad iceberg lettuce, a couple of cherry tomatoes that look like they gave up, and dressing that tastes suspiciously like regret. So when we rocked up to The Salad Kitchen on Leather Lane in Clerkenwell, we were ready for another “healthy but meh” moment.
Spoiler alert: we were not prepared for what happened next.

Bowls That Actually Slap
These aren’t your average sad bowls. We’re talking layers of fresh, crunchy, colourful goodness that look like they were styled for Instagram (which they absolutely were – the Reel doesn’t lie). The pulled chicken? Tender, juicy, and seasoned like it had something to prove. Every ingredient feels like it actually wants to be there. No wilting spinach phoning it in. No mystery protein hiding from the light. Just pure, unapologetic deliciousness.

The base of the Crunchbox changes weekly, meaning you'll never get bored. This week it was baby potatoes, black beans, couscous, coleslaw, pickled red onion and salad. I went for Goats Cheese & Tempeh topped with teriyaki mayonnaise and all the sprinkles while Mario had Pulled Chicken & Kimchi topped with sriracha mayonnaise. 🥰

The Focaccia That Broke US
First of all… that fluffy focaccia. We're not exaggerating when we say it should come with a warning label. One bite and Mario audibly moaned in public (zero regrets). Golden, pillowy, with just the right amount of chew and those little crispy edges that make you want to fight anyone who tries to steal a piece. It’s the kind of bread that makes you whisper “I’m never eating supermarket bread again.”
Pair it with their vibrant salad bowls and suddenly you’re not “eating healthy” – you’re having a full-on flavour party in your mouth. 🥗 + 🍞 = 👄 🎉
