My go to brasserie in the West End. Great service & a lovely atmosphere as always. We shared a charcuterie board followed by tuna niçoise & bavette, rounding out with the cheese plate between us. Delicious & good value.

Despite booking for 12.15, there was still a wait for the table. It worked out OK though as part of the party were held up due to tube issues. We got seated after about 20 minutes and the service after that was great. Can't really fault the staff as they were super obliging.

The cafe itself was nice, staff were attentive and kept asking if we were ok. We ordered a Prosecco afternoon tea. They didn’t bring the Prosecco we with our tea we had to ask for it, we also asked for tap water and they didn’t bring that either. The tea itself was ok. A couple of the sandwiches were dry as was the scones, they were very crumbly and broke into pieces when you put jam & cream on. They also didn’t provide any butter. The cakes were lovely though with a great selection. Overall it was alright and not too expensive which was good.
