Bel's Cafe

10 out of 10 stars

I stumbled across Lamb's Conduit Street and in particular Bel's Cafe a few years ago. Since then no visit to London from my native Yorkshire is complete without a visit to that particular establishment. Where else in the capital could you get a full English breakfast (served all day might I add) for 3 people, including toast and coffee, and still get change from £15?!

The place is tiny but if the weather's good you can sit on one of the pavement tables and watch the street go by. It's often very busy, especially at lunchtime, so you sometimes have to wait a while to be served, but that's testament to what a super place it is.

To the owner of the cafe, and all the other retailers down Lamb's Conduit Street, thank you and well done for creating something that resembles a village in central London. I only hope that the only multinational "blot" down there doesn't cause a flood of others.

I look forward to dining at Bel's during my next trip to London in April!
