I'm searching for cozy cafes in London
It’s hard to find independent cafes in Central London where every street corner has a coffee franchise. I’m making it a goal to discover great London cafes with atmosphere, affordable and quality food and drink with a bit of an edge.
D’Orange café in Westbourne Grove is a charming café with mismatched tables and chairs with a few leather couches and coffee tables for good measure. This unassuming café serves up no fuss fare. It attracts a mixed clientele of tourists, locals on work breaks and the odd model-actress type looking to avoid the paparazzi.
The blackboard menu changes with daily soups, muffins and sandwiches. We went directly for the best value meal which was the English breakfast which also comes with a selection of cereals and toast.
The breakfast covers a full plate with sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, mushroom and onions, baked beans and potatoes. You can help yourself to toast from the “buffet”. For £5.95 it was good value although any tea or coffee was an additional charge. I had a latte for £2.45 which was quite frothy.
The service is prompt and the waitress was very helpful and accommodating, as when my friend asked to swap her sausages and bacon for porridge she was only charged an extra pound.
On weekends a full brunch buffet is offered, which I have yet to try out. In this frosty London weather, a café with good breakfast and free wifi makes venturing outdoors worthwhile.
