Café de Lete

For curry, choose a plate that brings colour from its vegetables, too. One diner enjoyed chicken coconut curry with fifteen-grain rice, carrot râpée, and a kale and coconut salad. The Garden Kheema Curry has also been praised for its lingering heat, with one reviewer noting the sweet-potato crisps as a welcome accent. Prawn Curry offers another option.

For dessert or a tea break, there is fruit and mascarpone pudding or fondant chocolat. The fruit in the pudding varies with the season; one diner described its texture as rich and smooth and enjoyed the sweetness of the blueberries. Another standout is lemon-flavoured coffee jelly topped with housemade lemon espresso—a refreshing choice for anyone in the mood for lemon from start to finish.

Croissants are worth considering for breakfast or to take away. One reviewer bought one in the evening and ate it the next morning, finding it still soft and moist with a pleasantly crisp bite. For a savoury meal, the hot sandwiches include Jambon Fromage and smoked salmon with dill cream. They make an easy choice when you want something lighter than curry or a bite to have with coffee.

There is indoor seating as well as a terrace, where dogs are welcome. Settle in for curry followed by dessert, or take a break over a drink and a croissant; the café offers room for either kind of visit.
