Reviews of L'ETO CAFFE
C. J.Hoping that the savory food will be back once indoor dining reopens as really that’s my fav - the Aubergine salad and the cabbage one are DIVINE and the quiches also delicious.
I have had my birthday cake from here 2 years in a row - first the Napoleon cake and 2nd the Dulce de leche cake. I’ve never been disappointed with a dessert from here.
The juice and drinks are a little overpriced in my opinion but there are some lovely unique coffees and teas to try if you like.
M. Y.I bought the salted caramel chocolate and apple cake and the pistachio milk cake. They looked amazing but for me the salted caramel cake was a bit dry and the hard apple pieces ruined the taste. The pistachio milk cake was lovely. Will be back to try other cakes for sure.
The price points is also quite reasonable for such beautiful cakes
D.Went there for cake and a drink last Sunday. It’s amazing. The cakes taste as good as they look and the drinks are very good as well.
We ordered many cakes, cheese cake, the caramel cake, etc.
You will be very impressed with this place and even though we queued outside for quite a bit because we wanted a table for 5, it was worth the wait.
C. S. M.Dessert paradise !!
Best cake I ever eat !
Found it by chance and now is one of my favourite places to go.
The cakes are as delicious as they look, the service presentation is high quality and different which I love !
The client service, is one of the best in uk, employees are absolutely nice and welcoming, they go above and beyond to accommodate your requests.
The decoration is very agreeable to the eyes, but definitely what makes this place to go is the high food quality and client service.
Not to expensive .
2 cakes 2 coffee and tea £21.
I truly hope they maintain the high quality and prices.
R. P.Cannot praise this place highly enough.
The customer service here is what it should be, and puts just about everyone else I've ever reviewed to shame.
The quality of their desserts is next level and the choices are plenty. The pictures you see is of triple chocolate cheesecake and my favourite; pistachio rose cake; both taste rich, very sweet and tasty.
Coffee:
Spanish latte and cold Spanish latte; both of excellent quality. (Your latte will come with sugar already inside so if you don't take sugar, let them know when you order)
A must visit for Londoners and tourists alike, even if it's more expensive than any other similar place I've been to.
Z.A really cute dessert place, there’s so many options for cakes and usual and different types to choose from. The magic blue tea is so aesthetically pleasing and tastes amazing. The mocktails were a little bitter, but the milk cakes were really nice. Some constructive criticism, the music is way too loud, the waiters can barely hear you nor can you hear them. Chairs are not comfortable to sit on.
D. w. D.The window is the main driver at this place. It’s filled with a catwalk of desserts that tell your eyes and then your stomach that you must indulge.
We tried the Rose Cake, Hazelnut parfait and gluten free chocolate fudge cake. All three were delicious! We also tried a pot lemon and mint tea and also ginger with spices tea which was nice. Each tea pot served around 4 cups, so good for sharing.
I gave 4 stars as the internal part of the cafe is looking a little tired and could do with a spruce up.
F. G.Ooolala one of the best cake dessert bakery shops in Soho town. There are lots of selections in this store. We had two people who passed by the shop and compliments the cakes in the shop. Looks like tiramisu seems to be their top options. I went for the violet and raspberry macaron as this seems to be very different. It’s such a divine! The macaron was so softly baked with the cream and raspberry the combination was just perfect! I would come back again in the future to try the other cakes.
V. I.If you're looking for divine taste and high quality sweets thats the place.
There is a huge selection of hand made tarts and cakes.
Great coffee and service at a very relaxing and warm atmosphere.
It's definitely one of the best choices in Soho.
Highly recommended.
I. P. V.Really nice place for having astoundingly delicious cakes and drinks. Not only the dishes look absolutely amazing, but they taste awesome as well. Their original tea selection is also wonderful and really original. The staff is nice and polite, as well. Overall, perfect!
You can also order cakes for takeout!
S. Y.Desert place.
Very instagram place.
The cake taste good, tea comes with great presentation.
However, the price is very high compared with another cafe.
There are not much seats inside so have to wait always.
D.The cakes were quite good, but I didn't really like that the cakes were all in the open at the entrance where everybody was walking through. What might have been a good marketing decision is questionable hygiene wise.
If you are looking for good cake to quickly devour this is the place for you. If you are looking for a comfortable place where you can have cake while you discuss your problems or gossip with your friends then L'ETO shouldn't definitely not be your first choice since it offers more the loud fast food experience than the comfortable café.
M. H.A great little café. Usually there is a queue to get in, but was lucky today to be seated straightaway.
The cakes are made freshly daily. There is a good amount of choice of cakes, as well as hot and cold beverages.
K.Display is better than the taste and the service.
Easy to be fooled by the beautiful display, the cakes look amazing and tempting. They are actually so average. The best cakes are the dulce dear leche as they're light and moist and tasty. Everything else is comparable to supermarket cakes.
The prices for cakes are ok, but for drinks, they are extortionate! There are far better places up the road or even next door if it's open.
M. K.Walked past to see a queue and a pretty display of cakes. I had a hard time choosing 2 cakes because every single piece looks good! I got the popular favourite honey cake and a carrot cake in the end and I loved both of them. The honey cake had light cream between soft crumbly biscuit like layers and both cakes weren't too overly sweet. Cakes are a little expensive though at 11 pounds for 2 cakes. But I think I will be back for more!
W. F.This is one of the best bakeries in London! They’ve got such a wide variety of cakes I bet everything you crave for will be available, what more they’re really good! May it be chocolate cake, cheesecake, tiramisu, lemon meringue, you name it! Definitely a go to dessert cafe!
D. K.One of the best tea (Earl Grey) which I ever had. Full of flavour and with slice of lemon is the dream to drink it.
Deserts were tasty. Standard of 5stars rating was achieved easily with nice service as well.
P. S.Finally went to @letocaffe.co.uk at Wardour Street. Loved loved loved their GREEN CAKE. Finally a cake in the world that can match @paul_bakeryuk 💓💓💓👅👅
.
.
Their blueberry lime cheesecake was average and so was their coffee. It was served so cold that we had to tell them to heat it. 🙄😑 .
.
.
They have an amazing collection of cakes and cheesecakes (scroll ⬅️ for images), we had such a difficult time picking one each for ourselves! Also, if you are planning to visit them be ready to queue for 20-25 minutes‼️ .
.
.
Aaannddd, they have lovely and delightful ambience. They have a wall full of 3D butterflies 🦋🦋😍
(image ⬅️🤭)
S. B.This cafe is IMPOSSIBLE to walk past without piquing ones curiosity. The cakes are displayed in the window and they look glorious. However upon closer inspection, the cakes while they are still a delight to look at have visitors, small flies buzzing around as they are exposed. Once inside the cafe it is very regular looking, I definitely expected a more upscale interior to match the fancy window and cute butterfly wall entrance.
When we were seated we were told that there wasn't a menu for the cakes so we would have to leave our seats to see what was on offer; return to our seats and then wait for the server to take our order. I didn't appreciate this system.
I ordered a Caribbean cake which was nice, I would have prefered the cake to icing ratio to be greater but overall I enjoyed it. My hot chocolate which arrived in a pot was very average and I definitely expected more as the after hours menu is dedicated to drinks and desserts.
The service wasn't great, it was cold, unfriendly and as a result I didn't feel welcomed.
J. F.A big variety of cakes and drinks , the kefir cake was outstanding! Napoleon cake look good but unfortunately tasted old. Teas and coffees are great too.
L. K.Amazing place! So many cakes so little time. I was there with my friend and I will definitely be back next time I am visiting London.
I have a maccron cake and some drink that change color! Both delicious and magical!
A bit long waiting time for table and a bit high prices, but I guess it's just London :) And it was still worth both money and waiting!
N. F.Best cake I have tasted in London hands down. Very pricey but worth it. Old fashioned chocolate cake one of my favorites.
A year on and this place is still as awesome 😋
A. C.Decent desserts, but the two different cakes we've tried were both TOO SWEET (is there even such a thing for a sweet-tooth?!) The favourite "Russian" honey cake (I've eaten since my childhood) was just fine but again too sweet (not sure those calories and pounds were actually worth it). Drinks were nice and interestingly presented.
The atmosphere though spoiled everything as it was too loud (music + too many people talking so almost couldn't hear myself), tables are too narrow even for ladies, the cafe itself is very small with too many tables cramped together, felt like tube during rush hour. (And it was just Monday evening, 9-10pm).
Desserts on 4, atmosphere on 2, overall 3.
Probably would not go again and would definitely not recommend for a date.
Might be worth a try for an instagrammable pic of dessert but that's about it. (However the light was also bad so not even sure if you can take a nice photo there of anything apart from the main dessert stall by the window.)
A. S. I.Always walked past this place on the way to Crosstown Donuts (so twice) was always impressed by the store front cake display. Unfortunately not so impressed by the cakes themselves. We bought the lemon almond cake and the pistachio-rose. The former was too sour and too sweet, and the latter was soggy and slightly cloying - I blame the excessive layers of raspberry jam.
Plenty of other cakes to choose from, which I'd like to try, but my gut instinct says I'm probably better off buying cake elsewhere.
C. Y.Elegant cafe in the middle of Soho London. Bit small in size. Requires long waiting time around 30 min especially in weekends. I have tried Napoletan cake it is very light and tasty. There are many other options. Most of them are unique. I highly recommend here.
M. A.If you live for coffee and live for cakes, you will def enjoy this place. Get the Spinach Cake “my favorite” and your iced latte with coffee cubes and hot milk!
C. L.Count the memories, not the calories!
The cakes here are very delicate and delicious. My friend and I ordered the honey cake and pistachio cake. The first one is quite special and I don't think I have seen it anywhere else! The cakes were quite large so go for honey cake if you could only pick one!
J. F.Small cafe offering a good range of savoury and sweet food n drinks. It is clearly designed for the Instagram crowd but the taste also lives up to the hype. The prices are quite high but for the range and quality of the dishes, it is worth visiting. It gets very busy so get here early for a table.
E. L. C.Very pretty pastries/desserts which I've bought in the past as centre pieces for birthdays etc but would not causally drop by for cake and coffee. It is on the expensive side so if your willing to drop £6.90 for a large macaroon (a very pretty one to say the least) then this is the place for you.
P. G.Ok ... everything about L’eto screams 5 stars ... and it delivers without a doubt!!
The cakes are out of this world delicious and the choice bewildering. Every taste is catered for, so why the 4 star rating 🤨
Very simply the price of adding a coffee to ones gastronomic experience.
The most expensive Flat White & Americano that’s passed my lips and to make it worse average at that!
Even being accustomed to London pricing, this put a damper on the experience.
S. L.This was a great little find- we were a group of 6 but got seated very quickly. The service was speedy and the desserts and decor were great. It would however be nice if there was some more space in the place so it didn't feel so cramped.
C. W.Came here for a quick bite during lunch with my partner. Cakes were soo delicious with tea. Partner had an oreo latte which she loved.
Will be coming back here to eat for sure!
A.I love this cafe a lot, the sweets was amazing as expected, I ordered vanilla milk cake, Arabic coffee and latte.
The staff was so kind.
•
The reason why i did not rated it 5 is the place it’s too crowded.
S. N.Dessert heaven I call it. It’s is very beautiful inside and the desserts are absolutely delightful. I was her with an Airbnb experience with Christina. I had a lovely pie and tea which was so good. I would definitely share dishes so you don’t end up with a stomach.
S. N.I visited this place with my wife after her friend suggested to us. The place looks lovely. At the entrance there is a wall full of fake butterfly that looks nice. There are not a lot of seating available ( there is a toilet available) . We took a red shakshouka and an Italian dish with burrata pugliese, mushrooms, scrambled eggs and salad. They were delicious. There was no leftover. At the end we took two cakes, a chocolate cake and a pistachio cake. We liked them both. Price are a bit too high, but overall the experience is good
m. T.Long waiting time. The cake looks great and taste good. I would say the drinks here are overpriced! 6.9 pounds for a cup of coffee. plus service fee, so more than 7.5 pounds for a drink!
o.I have eating cakes all over the world. From America, to France, to Germany, to Holland, to Dubai, to Malaysia and China. I have tried the luxurious and expensive I have tried homemade and low cost cakes.
By far, L'eto, has given me the most delicious cakes, ever! Their Saffron Dulce di Latte sets the standard. Most beautiful cake I have eaten. Well done.
N. z.The cakes were BEAUTIFUL and they had some really unique flavours. I had the lychee and rose cake and the classic tes leches cake! Amazing!!
A. P.L'ETO Soho, serves up some of the best looking, better tasting, fresh cake in Soho offering takeout and eat in for about thirty people. The service is efficient, friendly and cordial. Be ready to stand in line at peak times as it is a popular spot attracting passers by with a large tempting window display of cakes.
The cake and pastry variety is great, offering 15 to 20 different cakes. However everything in this place is ultra sweet. My coffee came already with sugar which was unusual.
All this ultra sweet cake goodness comes at a price. A large slice of pistachio & rose petals cake was £6.90 while a slice of carmel cake layer was £5.90. L'ETO Soho also charged £6.90 for a cup of Spanish latte which is excessive even for Soho.
P. M.Roman Holiday Accommodation was here. Great place for great cakes. Lot of choices. Many kind of desserts and flavors. Chocolate, strawberry, cream, honey, baileys, coffee, etc. take away or eat at the place. Excellent!
M. R.Excellent service, very clean and staff were super friendly. The server that was wearing a blue mask, Andrea? Andre maybe was great! Very helpful. The good was great as per and the cakes were beautiful ❤️❤️😍😍
A. K.Delicious! We had the honey cake and saffron cake but my favourite was the Pistachio Dulce De Leche! Although it is quite small inside and be prepared to queue.
J. J.A "sweet" experience. The display window is enough to stop you in your tracks to stare at the colourful array of desserts.
The staff are friendly and efficient at seating large groups, the ambiance was laidback and fun. Interesting choice of music...
The violet macaron raspberry dessert was the winner of the night while the chocolate cheesecake tasted more like a heavy chocolate mousse.
Would definitely come for sure to try their teas!
A. M.I was there last weekend with my boyfriend and already want to come back! I always passed in front and never went in, but this time, I HAD TO! It was a nice cold night for a hot chocolate and some sweet cakes. I recommend everything from this store! Staff are also very lovely !!
R. A.A beautiful and exquisite tea house with amazing cakes and pastries. The pastries all had a unique twist to them in terms of flavors, design, etc and they were absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly as well and have good recommendations.
D.No form of social distancing was completely busy and full, hence only 3 stars. Service was incredibly poor and had a waiter who was quite rude and unbothered.
Although the Pistachio Tres Leches cake I had was exceptional. So light and fluffy not too sweet or over powering. Such a beautiful cake. Will definately be going back to try the other flavours (Vanilla & Safron).
A. A.Cozy cafe, the desserts look amazing at the entrance and attractive. I tried pistachio cake with rose cream and I wouldn't really say that it was smth unique and special, quite sweet actually. And the cold tea I had was sweet as well, so I asked for tap water, because so much sugar. The cafe serves traditional breakfast (eggs, pancakes ) which looked normal, I don't know about it's taste... My friend ordered pancakes with fruits and there were a small portion of fruits not as she thought .
N. H.My wife and I was walking back to our hotel. We just glanced through the window and hit the brakes. The window was full of mouthwatering cheesecakes buns and sweat treats.
We obviously had to give it a try. I got the coconut and mango with a diet coke to offset the calories(I don't think that helped lol). My wife had an individual vanilla and strawberry cheesecake, with a mango smoothie.
We tried each others and they were fantastic. Definitely going back before we leave. And definitely try it yourselves. Update went back the next day couldn't resist it.
A. A.Great place to eat breakfast and dessert. I loved there coffee and zafarn cake. Also, there Lebanon breakfast is good. They have honey cake which is not bad. Enjoy your time.
R. V. (.Very cute cafe! Great for brunch, was very hard to decide and make sure you leave room for dessert. We went quite early so no queue in the morning but as we were leaving there was a small wait. Great selection of teas coffee and non alcoholic drinks, it is a mix of cultural foods and beverages. You can easily spend a good few hours catching up with old friends here. I love it! Although I wasn't impressed with my mojito that was very tasty, and came with an environmentally friendly edible straw, but in a not so environmentally friendly PLASTIC BAG.
S. “. B. B.I am not usually a massive cake fan, but must say I was impressed with this cafe. I had a coconut and raspberry smoothie and a Napoleon (cake), both really well presented, especially the smoothie (see pic below).
Its nicely lit up, clean and had a good amount of seating, though I went on a Sunday evening and there was a que to get in.
O. A.Very instagrammable place. The cakes are tasty but very sweet. If you have a specific love for tea or coffee I wouldn’t recommend, but other than that dulce milk cake is yum.
J. Y.I really like l’eto. Love how the cakes are soft, fluffy and not overly sweet. Fav is green pistachio rose.
D. B.This is such a beautiful place to go.
They do serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
However they are mostly famous for their desserts and famous magic colour changing drinks.
The desserts are definately some of the best I have EVER experienced.
L. H.Very delicious and beautiful cakes. Love the food good service but too much restriction. Long waiting time.
A. I.Raspberry tart over Strawberry tart all the way. Beautiful presentation, lovely interior.. Very nice virgin mojito with edible straw ! For food, its salad is lovely (the one with dates in.. do not remember its name). I didnt personally like the French toast but was recommended it by people. Avocado breakfast is lovely!! Here's some pics.
B. B.Cute, cozy place ideal for a savoury brunch or to treat yourself with a sweet bite. They have a number of cake slices and individual cakes, from the most traditional receipes to exotic flavour combinations! Also, you can order a colorful drink, having marked their most original options with an instagram sign.
Additionally, the staff is really friendly and quick. Because its so popular, you might need to wait before being seated, however it normally does not take long, and it is tottaly worth it.
Conveniently located awasy from the busiest areas of Soho, yet right in the heart of the neighbourhood, L'Eto is the perfect place to grab-to-go a sweet treat afer theater or after dinner, and enjoy it while strolling around the vibrant streets of Soho.
X. S.Beautiful cakes and tasty too, love this green cake and milky flavoured vanilla dulce de leche and honey cake not bad either
R. F.A delicious experience in the night after partying and dancing. Late night tea and cake (beautiful display window to entice you in) and politely helpful staff. We arrived at 10.30pm, were told that L'eto would close at 11pm but nevertheless, served well. The decor and furniture is comfy with some quirky features like their whiteboards.
C. F.By far, the best cake shop in London. There are 3 or 4 locations to choose from but on this occasion I had the pleasure of cakes from the wardour branch.
You can not go wrong with the classic chocolate cake, it’s truly Devine.
The cheesecake is also a must try, the only problem you’ll have is deciding as there’s always an amazing selection to choose from!
R. A.I have a mix feeling about this place, came with some friends who highly recommended it, the Spanish late was amazing and the l’eto croissant was very nice but extremely expensive for what it is. The guy who welcomed us was great but the one who served us was, bless him, no great, he forgot one of the cakes the milk for the tea, and actually we asked for the tea several times,,,
I. K.The presentation of the cakes is very attractive. Service is great and I loved the drink choices, especially you have to try magic tea. Honey cake is fantastic. Some of the cakes are too rich or creamy, however it's worth the visit. Thank you.
L. C.The sweetest place in London! A must-try if you're in the City, and an all-time favorite for me!
Every time I'm in London, I have to stop by and try one of their many beautiful and delicious creations!
H.L'eto is the kind of place you visit when you want to amaze. From a decadent display of desserts, to a huge menu of delicious hot and cold drinks, you're sure to find something that wows and delights. My personal favourite is the Saffron Tres Leches cake; a deliciously delicate cake soaked in a fragrant saffron milk. The Honey cake is their signature piece and is incredibly moreish with its distinct layers of cake and cream. Try their ice cube latte for a novel take on iced coffee. Cubes of deep espresso gently melt into hot, sweetened cream to create a refreshing accompaniment to any cake.
The interior is bright and colourfully decorated, great for your Instagram feed. The staff are always incredibly friendly and welcoming. Seating is limited and there's usually a small queue but the wait is definitely worth it. Get yourself a table and sample desserts that will make you feel like royalty!
S. E.Just the best desserts and one of a few places that serve freshly brewed tea leaf tea correctly. Always busy though so service is a bit slow at times but the staff really try hard to keep up.
A. B.The honey cake is incredible! Layers of crumbled graham cracker and sweet Chantilly cream. Light and delicious with a really unique flavor.
Service can be improved, if you want the dessert displayed on the window counter, and you want to sit down, you can to give your order to one of the waiters there and then sit down and wait. This leads to some confusion since take-away orders also happen at the same place.
A. A.I loved this little place of joy.
Busy atmosphere and you can't reserve seats over the phone.
There may be a queue and waiting time is no more than 30 minutes.
Nice but pricey for drinks and cake.
If you are either on a date, with friends or family it's definitely a nice little place to go. But be ready for the bill to add up especially if there 4 or more people.
Staff are friendly and helpful.
At times it can be noisy in there and also you have a flock of tourists outside taking pictures of the cakes on the window display.
G. N.Excellent assortment of cakes and desserts that taste great, the coffee and range of drinks was excellent. The fruit juices however, were a tad overpriced and you didn't get very much in the glass, despite being delicious.
F. O.Standard patisserie, interior decor is quite lame and basic, you would expect something special and luxurious given the price tag (cake slices around 6 quid each, though they are pretty big). Cake was fine but nothing to die for
V. G.The best coffee and dessert place in London. Iced latte is a must must try. They have finger licking good pastries.
h. /. ه.Their cakes are really good! My mum had the chocolate cake which I believe they are popular for, and I had the dulce de leche. It did melt quickly so I had to eat it a little quickly. I tried an anti-aging violet tea; definitely an acquired taste — not for everyone. The idea is very cool; as you pour it into your cup it changes colours. Cozy atmosphere and the service was very good.
M.Gorgeous tea and cakes - we had afternoon tea and it was perfect to escape the busy streets of Soho. I’ve had the honey cake many times, plus others - they have never disappointed.
M. P.Deliciously decadent and aesthetically beautiful desserts. Not cheap but definitely worth going. Favourites are the Hazelnut Parfait and the Pistachio Dulce
O. H.They have the Best milk cake 🍰 actually all the pastry are delicious and if you like Arabic coffee don’t miss it
c. s. s.2 years in a row we celebrated my daughters birthday. Cakes are delicious and Hot chocolate to di for. Service is faultless.
G. B.Food Critic Ratings: A particularly spectacular experience none the less to say. The saffron dulce de leche was a burst of fragrance fulfilling you deepest desires. I must say that there was a long wait and the Queue unorganised. The dessert is an exceptional choice however there was no system in place the keep the dessert cool enough to reach your mouth....but in other words it was a desirable selection to meet your pallet.
T. R.We found this place while just walking around, and it really draws you in with the desserts right in the window.
They have an interesting atmosphere—it’s tea and desserts in neon lights and rave music (but quiet enough you can talk). And, the best part: the desserts were really good.
B. P.Delightful experience. Delicious breakfast. The cakes are definitely among the best in London.
R. V. S.Lovely cakes, dulce de leche was very very good, staff was very friendly. Highly recommended.
l. r.Loved the cakes. I had honey cake and pistachio cake. I would not recommend cheescake..the staff at soho branch was not helpful and tool ages to take our order
D. C.This place is just desert heaven. If you are craving sugar and need a place to just indulge and chill? Then this is a a place to visit. Variety of deserts, fresh juice, tea and coffee. They also serve breakfast. The coconut vanilla cake and carrot cake is a must try! Their doggie bags are pretty cool and non judgemental 😉 #memoriescount
L. H.The desserts at the show window are very beautiful and attractive! But when we seated, it’s so hard to get the attention of the waiters. We waited for quite a long time to order our food.
M. S.So I've been here a few times and if it's busy the service isn't great. However I went late morning during the week and it's quiet and so much nicer. You don't feel like you're being rushed and there was no wait. Raspberry lemonade is delightful as was the bramley Apple pie
P. E.This cafe is one the cutest and lovely cafe for cakes and drinks.The cakes here are mouth watering it's so delicious if you try for once I'm sure you couldn't help yourself to visit for next time .
j. s.The crepes is extremely goooooooodddddddddddds!!!!!! The best i ate in my entire life!!! Lots of cake option toooo!! Very unique magic tea!! (Changing colour once you pour it on the glass)
T. F.Big variety of desserts in the middle of soho. You are lost in the huge choices, they got an Instagram logo on their menu on any nice instagramable dishes . Only turn off is that the place is small and when its packed you feel no privacy while talking. Overall great experience and a must try when your craving good dessert.
W. F.I've only tried their desserts. Given a taste at 4 so far with my 2 visits, love all 4 of them. My favourite so far is the saffron dulce de leche.
M. R.This place is legendary, every single time I visit L'Eto I need to wait in the queue outside while looking at impressive cakes at the window display. However, the wait is definitely worth it. Great for any weekend timeouts with your friends. The only drawback is the place has only one unisex toilet.
Y. C.Their brunch was amazing and the cakes are must try, drinks are very pretty and delicious too, if I had to complain it would be the price
S. H.Amazing cakes, Pistachio layered cake and the Saffron dulce de leche was soo good, eat-in was available socially distanced of course. Great little café.
D. S.Absolutely loved this place, great cake and coffee best place to get a dessert after a long day! The team there is great and so so awesome. Thank you! I will continue to come back for delicious cake.
K. G.Bought red velvet cakes for Valentine’s Day, absolutely divine! Very moist and tasty 👌🏼
E. P.Amazing food and service. Wish that I could eat here everyday. The food was SO fresh and the vibe was laid back and welcoming. We had to sit downstairs because they were so busy, but 10/10 would recommend 👌
Ü. S.Leto LONDON is kingdom of sweet things :) You can find some photos but you have to visit this nice place to see lovely honey cake.
m.Amazing cake display and amazing cakes! It's pretty packed-it's Soho after all-but it just adds to the atmosphereand waiting time wasn't so long for my friends and I. The staff were really lovely attentive and quick. I'd go again.
E.The cake display in the window caught our eye an we had to go in!
We had the tumeric cinnamon latte, caramel and vanilla tea. The tea was amazing! Cake wise we had honey cake and a violet and raspberry macraroon . Both of which were amazing the macraroon refreshing and light the honey cake sweet and scrumptious!
It was hard to make just one choice from both the drinks and cake menu.
One dislike was the uncomfortable seating we would of stayed longer if we could of relaxed a bit more.
We will be trying out the other branches
S. S.Literally Amazing ! Cakes and drinks are superb delicious but during evening periods it might be noisy
O.+ excellent food
+ fantastic service
+ beautiful decor (even the Toilets are spectacular).
- price is high ££££
- queues on weekends
S. C.This is my favorite cake shop in London! Wow, their honey cake is totally worth the calories! It is aligned to their company slogan! Count the memories not the calories :)))
U. K.Lovely amazing desserts and coffee. Warm friendly service. Great place to take friends and share memories
O. B.Must visit every time we are in London, Chemex artisan coffee, Napoleon cake and Turkish breakfast is our favourite. All fab
C. A.Best cakes in London! Service is pretty slow though, I normally take away and this can sometimes take up to 20 minutes waiting outside
A. A.The staff very very friendly the best cake is suffran cale then honey cake
Z. S.Beautiful place in Soho! They have an amazing dessert selection and selections of tea coffee and cold drinks. Some are brought looking like science experiments which is quite fun to make your drink!
The service was lovely too the waiter we had was very good at explaining everything to us and checking in.
However, and probably not the fault of the cafe but it was just so loud. Could have been an unfortunate one off for us but perhaps try going when less busy?
M. B.Amazing place for cake lovers. So many choice of cakes !!! I tried the pistachio cake and the spinach cake.. and I recommend both ! The tea is also nice at that place 👌🏼
g. p. l.Special order this birthday cake for my little one. What a lovely cake and everyone is asking me where to get this cake. Everything in this cake was just so perfect and i totally fell in love with this cake. Thanks to the manager and chef!
H. B.Been here several times and it was beautiful as usual. Tried the caramel chocolate cake this time, aling with the ginger and spices tea. Both were fabulose!! See photos attached
a.Good breakfast and amazing cakes. Friendly and professional staff, kudos to Alex. He made me and my friends feel London’s vibe.
C. C.Nice place, cosy but sometimes overcrowded. 4 stars and not 5 because some of the times I went there the service wasn't warm and friendly as always. But definitely recommended, cakes are really nicely made
I. Y.Most amazing and delicious cakes in London! Always happy to be back. The honey cake is their bestseller- so definitely a must!
A. S.Ordered Americano and flat white, with tiramisu (halal) and a macaroon. The coffee tasted decent but loved that they gave it in a pot with cup and the cup for the flat white was nice. Tiramisu was nice but not the best I've had, but that macaroon was amazing! All of that came up to £30 with service charge. A little more that I like to spend on coffee but worth the experience.
W. A.Yummy yummy yummy... Nice patisseries and drinks. They also do really good breakfast!
D. H.The desserts in the window made me stop right in my tracks to come in and enjoy a couple with some pour over coffee. The pictures speak for themselves.
J. A. E.Exceptional selection of cakes including healthier options & low sugar cakes. The spinach cake was quite exceptional and worth triying. In terms of seating area there is plenty of confortable seating and option to take away the cakes.
S. B.We were all set to get 3 of the same cake but after a nice chat with the loveliest member of staff, he recommended we try 3 different ones and share to make it a more fulfilling experience. He was completely right!
We tried 3 different cakes and each was delicious in its own way. Staff were attentive and professional in the best way.
Haven't had everything on the menu, but from only trying 3, I feel it's safe to say that each item on the menu is made with the greatest care and craftsmanship.
Cost is lower than the usual dessert tourist traps too!
Would recommend
H. F. F.Lovely cakes. A shame they don't serve savoury foods after breakfast, that would make it perfect.
D. M.Beyond! This restaurant has changed my expectations for great pastries. I ordered the chocolate and cherry cake, but also tried 3 additional flavors from my friends. Wow! Each was unique and sumptuous.
Y. K.A wide selection of breakfast options and an even more impressive selection of cakes!
L. L.Nice place. We had a breakfast (brunch) here. The stuff is very friendly. A sweet menu is big. Expresso is super. Thanks.
T. D. N.Amazing cake display and ambience. Music might be too loud for chat over coffee. Green tea lychee cheesecake (front in pic) was perfectly done. Rose lychee cake (back in pic) was slightly too sweet for my liking but goes well with the lavendar vanilla latte. Definitely worth a visit!
J. D.We stopped off here for a quick dessert while wandering the streets on London! The service was excellent and the desserts were delectable! I would highly recommend
W. L.Hmm, few years back people raved about this place for their delicious cakes/desserts..been here a few times when I visited London..just this time and my previous visit, I noticed that the service had gone downhill, staff is not unfriendly, but just inattentive and it took ages for the cake that we ordered to arrive despite being here during off peak hour at about 7.30pm. Cake is still ok I guess but not superb (i'd still recommend the truffle chocolate bar - in the pic), but coffee is quite pricey and taste is not quite there. They do serve all day breakfast and I really hope they will improve back their service..still worth checking out if you have a sweet tooth.
K. W.Visited this place two years back and the coffee is remarkable a long with the sweet options. The atmosphere is fabulous
P. S.Very nice restaurant, unfortunately the temperature is so low inside you may want to bring a technical winter jacket.
H. M. A. B.Nothing to say about L'ETO..speechless, they got variety of fantastic cakes and coffees. Highly recommended and a must to visit.
S. V.Been here multiple times and it only gets better each time. Coffee was amazing - definitely will recommend the saffron spiced latte, and the cakes are delicious also!
S. S.This little cafe is absolutely stunning; the interior is beautifully decorated and relaxing. The almond croissant was divine and the cakes were also delicious!
H. S.Exciting place, excellent for cakes, coffees, and tea. Nice ambience, very clean guestrooms, and gorgeous staff.
K. K.A great little coffee shop in SOHO.
One of the best dark chocolate gateaux’s I’ve had in a while!
Friendly staff, prompt service and good coffee.
S. H.Lovely place to have coffee and awesome cake. Fantastic customer service. My only problem ......... deciding which stunning dessert to have !
S. H.Nicely interior space and ambience. We had to queue 10 mins for a table but deserts we’re worth the wait. Only downside was restaurant is really noisy as space is slightly small .
Would recommend a visit to anyone who enjoys patisserie .
A. d. P.Excellent for cake & coffee/tea! It's small and cozy, and can get surprisingly loud inside. One can also get your cake to go alternatively.
t. s.I loved the vibe of the place and yummy cakes and awesome coffee. But service is very very slow
P. D.Absolutely love this place, best cakes and I always have a pot of hot chocolate too. Sheer indulgence, can't beat it.
s. f.The cakes were BEAUTIFUL and they had some really unique flavours. Great atmosphere
N. M.Nice place, excellent service and friendly staff. One of my favorite places in London
E. M.This is one of the places to go for dessert in the Soho region. Take a date or take a friend. The only downside is how busy it is, but that just tells you how good they are. If coffee is your primary purpose then it'd be alright but if it's desserts then you've come to the right place
E. N.Visited at afternoon, ordered ice tube latte with tiramisu. Muptiple dessert and beverage u can choice. LOVE their dessert and drink 😍
N. R.I really like this place. I have been there for cakes, which are sooo nice - try the green tea one!. Brunch is also quite good!
M. W.Amazing breakfast & coffee combined with very cosy atmosphere and very nice staff.
D. N.Quite simply, the cakes are amazing. I can never walk past this place without gazing longingly in the window. Finally after trying them, I can say without a doubt they are worth it in every way.
A. A.On the whole, not bad and the prices seem reasonable. The chocolate and raspberry cake was a bit too dense, it also needs more raspberry sauce.
The classic and pistachio cakes should come with lashings of milk.
The pistachio cake was also dense and too sickly, it needs some sort of berry sauce to cut through the sweetness.
Just my 50¢'s worth.
A. J.Best cakes I've ever tasted, beautiful presentation
S. F.Had a lovely evening at Leto even though had to wait more than 30 minutes in que for a table.
S.Tasty breakfast, delicious honey cake, good staff & great music. Love it
A. W.if you are in for some sweet calories, your time is well spent here!
I had the Californian breakfast and loved it.
For the cakes – this is really too much!
W.Nice cafe
Variety of cake options and teas
M. L.Very busy place, but the cakes are worth it. They are so delicious and beautiful.
S. K.Great cake with great atmosphere. And it opened till quite late. So all in all a good place. Recommend for sure.
A. B.A bit of a desert treat paradise.
The cakes looked so inviting. We had to pop in to get a quite sugar boost and left with a sugar coma. Thoroughly enjoyable if not a tad expensive for a slice 😀
m. r.The peach tea and milk cake were very good, if it were only for the cake and tea I’d give 5*, the service on the other hand was lack lustre. We felt like we were inconveniencing the waiter by being there which made for an uncomfortable and awkward dine in experience. If you want to eat here I’d recommend getting a take away for their cakes as they are absolutely delicious!
J. L.Amazing cake! Great service! Definitely worth the try.
K. P.Cakes were nice. Latte wasn't great and it was very expensive and the sitting is very tight.
M. Y.The service and ambience here isn’t too great, but the taste of the cake wins all. The honey cake out of all cakes is a must try, but all the other cakes are so good as well.
H. T.Super busy, long queue. Beautiful looking cakes. So hard to decide.
W. N.The blueberry cheesecake is great, the service isn't.
We were standing at least 5 minutes before being acknowledged, as were the couple in front of us.
Literally staff carried on with what they were doing as if we didn't exist, tried to speak to them and they conveniently couldn't hear, this was before they asked whether we were eating in.
We told them we wanted a takeaway order which was followed by another wait, I would have walked away if I wasn't already committed to getting that cheesecake (it really is good). Hopefully it was just an off day, although it didn't look busy at all, I won't be in a rush to return.
J. F.The papaya cake was really good! Enjoy the atmosphere here. Good for small to middies size group gathering
B. B.Staff was very friendly. Food was delicious. Great atmosphere. Food was fresh. Juice was fresh made.
M.Fun experience with friends. Decadent, delicious cakes + drinks of all sorts. True indulgence
F.Whenever we come to London from Edinburgh this is no. 1 shop. The Arabic coffee and Zafron cake are the best 😋
T. H.Good selection of desserts and teas to choose from. The cafe itself is beautiful designed.
M. A.Amazing dulce de leche cakes/puddings. Try the saffron one. They also do amazing tea.
K. A.Amazing delicious desserts to look at and enjoy! Two lovely men serving you with excellent customer service skills to help you choose the right desert for you.
Y. A. (.Really nice cakes. The dulce de leche is amazing. However when we were there there were quite a few fruit flies which was off-putting. Good place for a date.
H. C.Excellent atmosphere, quirky cups and awesome cakes! A must do desert place in central London!
R. K.Incredible service from the waiters here. Mind reading levels of attention, friendly and courteous, they made the experience! The cakes, well, when theyre good enough to make your eyeballs salivate at the windowside, of course they taste divine..
M. P.I wasn't sure if the Honey Cake would live up to the hype, but it was incredible! It manages to coalesce the elegant sweetness of honey into a light, delicate sponge, and have the perfect amount of cream in each layer. Absolutely wonderful! I also had an English Breakfast tea, which was good.
Looking through the reviews for L'ETO I've seen mixed things about the service. When I went yesterday (Saturday) afternoon, the service was good. The waiters and waitresses were quite friendly and managed to be efficient in a busy environment.
L'ETO is expensive, but definitely worth going to at least once for the Honey Cake (or anything else that takes your fancy).
R. A.I like design but it is Cozy place
I tried ice spinach latte good but too sweet
Old fashion chocolate awesome
E. A.Great selection cakes. I recommend the Saffron cake.
M. K.Cakes are delicious, but atmosphere is poor. Very busy and loud and waiters seem stressed.
O. Ş.This place has a great variety of cheesecakes 🤤🤤
Blueberry lime is great 😍
T. A.Dessert place that has a queue no matter when you go! Totally worth it but make sure you get the right dessert because some of them just look good (but aren’t that good).
Saffron cake is a must have! If you go late night post dinner then there is a good chance that most of the good ones would be finished - so time it and give it another shot if the 1st dessert you tried wasn’t that good.
As a dessert connoisseur I fully endorse it!
K. R.The desserts are excellent. Light yet delicious. The L’eto croissant was soo good.
A. K.Best cakes in London. Amazing taste. Cosy and lively. They do have Arabic coffee as well.
S. S.Really tasty food, beautiful decor, a little expensive for portion sizes, halal
S. J.It's a nice place to come with friends for coffee, drinks, and dessert. Thry serve quite strong coffee e.g. Turkish coffee and also have cappuccino and Latte as well. Many choices for dessert, I'm a sweet tooth but still feel that it's too sweet for me.
P. A.Great place for cakes and great coffee. A bit expensive but tasty.
高.There are lots of beautiful cakes, but the cake I ordered was really sweet. Fortunately I was starving, I enjoyed it. The atmosphere was lively and noisy, the seats were too narrow. The price of smoothie(Very Strawberry) is different from the one in the menu. It costs £6.9 but the price printed in the menu was £4.5. I'm not sure it was my fault or not.
L. C.Great little cafe which we stopped in for some cakes and tea. They were a little under staffed (because Covid), but the staff were friendly and did their best.
The cakes were excellent. I also got a milkshake, which was probably more than I needed, but still excellent.
z. C.Good cake, but staff are very inpatient and rude. Have been here so many times and this time is the worst
T. N.It is a small cafe but very organized and clean. Cakes are fantastic😋😋😋
S. T.So so cakes and drinks. Definitely an instagrammable spot. Friendly staff
S. S.Amazing honey cake! Worth waiting for a table. Service could be better. No atmosphere, too cramped.
S. S.Fantastic cakes and coffe and great staff.
K. P.Great dessert place!
W. Q.You will find ur self in a 2 hours line, then a delicious piece of cake will make you forget about all the waiting.
R. B.The strawberry cheesecake is perfect. From look to taste. Very beautiful creation ETO
T. K.Cakes are good and there is a great selection. Especially the saffron cake. But they are overpriced and really not worth waiting in the long queue that is always there.
A. A.I love the the milk cake with zafron, it’s my happiness.This cafe strongly worths a try. It’s really a new taste experience !
S. F.Nevermind the queue but seating for 2 is easier. Variety of cakes as dessert and a cuppa just nice
S.Was introduced to L'ETO by a friend and have loved it since! The Spanish latte is amazing alongside the honey cake. It is quite small so you can be waiting up to 20/30 minutes for a table when it is busy which is why I rate it 4 out of 5.
S. O.Excellent place, best service, delicious cakes
E. C.They sacrifice the taste of the cakes here for appearance. Very dissapointing considering the prices. Staff ignore you.
H. S. I.Must visit! Enjoy Saffron cake and dulce de leche cake
Y. A.I just love L'Eto. Their chocolate hazelnut parfait is .. well, perfect! And their red velvet cupcake is my favourite. I can't wait for all L'Eto's to be back open again and for all the cakes to do their comeback in store after this pandemic. And their peach & elderflower ice tea is delicious as well!
A. A.Sooo yummy , especially honey cake! You should give it a try! I’ve tried honey cake and pistachio with blue berries 😩
E.Decent cake, okay service, floor layout can be improved.
A. A.I love their desserts selection!
C. T.Their display of desserts are very nice and when you taste them they are better. The chairs are quite small and quite uncomfortable. But they always have lots of people inside and I can see why.
A. B.He has the most delicious cakes in London
I like it 😋
A. A.in my opinion they have the best honey cake
c. K.High price, nice food, desert is amazing!
m. j.Great service, lovely food, bit tiny tables
F. A.The waiter told us that the honey cake is the bestseller, however, it wasn’t really my taste, i’ve tried the honey cake in other places but this one will not be repeated definitely. The place is crowded and very loud. The chairs are not comfortable, so no the place you want to spend even a full hour in.
I. M.Beautiful place and lovely cakes.
S. P.Best place for dessert at London
A.Very quirky tea selection. The presentation is good and so is the taste
V. D.Lovely place with attentive staff. Each cake is done to perfection in terms of aesthetics but taste, what happened here. Napoleon cake is total mess. Strawberry jello should not be mixed with something so unique as Napoleon cake, you don't just drawn the cake in fruits. Honey cake is also disappointment. Perhaps cake makers should review the recipes again or get some advice from Commies who really know how to make these cakes to perfection!
P. G.What a lovely cafe!
This is an awesome place to grab some desert after any meal. Also a great breakfast place with such amazing breakfast options.
The staff was extremely polite and helpful (Especially in deciding the dish or cakes). By the way which I forgot to mention, THIS PLACE HAS MOST AMAZING CAKE SELECTION).
Only one suggestion though, the honey cake may not be the best one there.
Z. I.Great selection of very tasty cakes
K. R.Cute café with great service. The lemon meringue pie was great and the colour changing tea was novelty. I definitely want to go back to try some of the other cakes.
A. H.Amazingly friendly and fast service despite being busy. The staff made everything a breeze and never rushed me. The eggs royale was the best I have ever eaten, with a lovely deep orange yolk on the poached eggs. The pistachio and rose cake was extremely light and delicious. The pistachio and white hot chocolate was to die for but I wish there was a bigger portion - that's how tasty it was. The cafe was clean and well maintained. I will definitely return!
G.Eye watering selection of decadent desserts, delicious coffee and tea, impressive presentation of cold and hot drinks, e.g. cocktail in a plastic bag in a wooden box, tea changing color while being poured, coffee with flavors of safron. The tables are too close and there is no privacy, but overall l'Eto is a gift.
I. S.I do sometimes get the impression that Leto is slightly more about the visuals than the taste - so more an Instagram place than gastronomic.
The bakery items taste nice but nothing outstanding. The mocktails are very good and have a good balance of sweetness and acidity. They also do a decent hot chocolate, even if it is over priced. The biggest disappointment is the coffee.
D. D.Great cakes and Lovely Staff
One of the favourite Cafes in London
Iced Latte And Saffron Cake 👍🏻
s. m.Hazelnut parfait, classic chocolate cake and Oreo latte are winners for chocolate lovers like me. The service is excellent with friendly staff and selection of cakes to cover every sweet-toothed palate. The wait can be up to 20 mins for a table and the prices arent cheap, but for a treat once in a while, it's definitely worth it. Improvements to be made: The chocolate and cinnamon cake was slightly dry and coat hooks are needed on both sides of the wall.
E. A.Amazing! Nice staff and delicious cakes
H.honey cake and chocolate cinnamon cake are my favorite here. Lemon mint tea as well.
W. M.Beautiful place and nice sweets! Highly recommended
y. x.Great place to have breakfast.
T. D. N.Amazing cake display and ambience. Music might be too loud for chat over coffee. Green tea lychee cheesecake (front in pic) was perfectly done. Rose lychee cake (back in pic) was slightly too sweet for my liking but goes well with the lavendar vanilla latte. Definitely worth a visit!
T. K.Cakes are good and there is a great selection. Especially the saffron cake. But they are overpriced and really not worth waiting in the long queue that is always there.
A. K.Best cakes in London. Amazing taste. Cosy and lively. They do have Arabic coffee as well.

C. W.Fantastic range of pastries. Great place for a girly catchup
T. T.Vlad is genuinely the nicest person in addition to his incredible talent in managing the customers and making it look so beautiful!
P. S.Amazing desserts
I fell in love with them when I saw the display of cakes near the window ! What a beautiful presentation to tempt patrons in.
Try the honey cake it was just the right sweetness. I can never forget the taste and how I felt when it melted in my mouth. Yum
The orange walnut cake was too sweet for my palette.
The chai latte was nice and strong, only not hot enough.
Staff was nice and friendly.
They close their kitchen at 5 and only do cakes and coffee after that. W were hungry and would have loved to eat more. But who's complaining ? I was in love, in love with the honey cake!
J. H.Had to wait for about 20 to 30mins to get a table for 3, overall the place is really nice.
Both the cakes we had were lovely so was the black coffee, the Turmeric and cinnamon wasn’t my thing and they were kind enough to replace with something else and didn’t charge us.
Definitely recommend this place if nearby.
D. K.Cute and fancy cakes! The counter is by the window so it caught my attention when I walked past this store. Definitely didn't want to miss it. The cakes look really pretty and some of them are unique combinations of flavours and texture. I've only had some for takeaway but there are seats inside for cakes and coffee or tea. I definitely would come back for more.
N. K.The cakes were very good and while pricey feel like they may be worth it, however the drinks were merely passable and at the prices charged are nowhere near worth it. I opted for the Pistachio Dulce De Leche which was nice but you need a very sweet tooth to get through it all. I opted for the iced saffron coffee to drink, this was a let down. The coffee comes in frozen cubes with warm saffron infused milk. The idea is that you combine them at the table for an iced coffee. The milk was too heavily flavoured with saffron and the coffee flavour barely detectable. Time to go back to the drawing board with this one L'eto. Other drinks on the menu were similarly high concept and also I suspect similarly flawed.
The venue is very small and while it also offers savoury and bespoke items they do not serve them after 5pm (a fact no one informed us of until we attempted to order).
There will also very likely be a wait for seating. All in all I don't think this place warrants the hype. If you really want to try one of their cakes opt for takeout.
M. P.Great cakes and atmosphere went there a second time for more
I. G.Highly recommended for a brunch! There're so many interesting options that I wanted to order all their menu.
Their drinks are also very creative. I ordered Lemonade with lychee and rose. And they brought me a set of "chemistry tools" and I felt like a real scientist mixing ingredients and being amazed how the drink changes (in color and taste) with every new ingredient.
Also their interior design is really cute!
A. T.The cakes are just amazing. The best cakes I ve ever eaten. Even their teas are really nice. Was rather nice surprise considering the cafe is based in a very “touristy” area.
Y. A.Good sweet & thay have many kind cakes
D. T.wow, my daughter and I looked through the window at the display and fell in love. It was so pretty and different. So we decided to stop in after breakfast and a short walk to digest.
BEST IDEA, their teas and cakes are heavenly (truely divine)
M. C.Very "instagramable" food. They even mark especially pretty dishes on the menu so you can order them if you want to post something on your instagram account. However, the portions are small, the food is not as satisfying if you are hungry, for example the slice of bread with your scrambled egg is paper thin, the mushrooms burnt to super crispy state whilst tasting oily and smoky. The taste of the drinks and deserts is overly sweet. Could not finish my iced coffee as it was way too sweet and observed other people not finishing their deserts. Also, the atmosphere and staff were somewhat awkward. If you want a pretty meal for a photo I can recommend this place, otherwise avoid, there are many better options in the area.
K. K.Great cakes which are so instagrammable 👍🏻
N. N.Must try desserts- Dulce De Leche and Honey Cake! They have a great selection of desserts.
H. C.Charming place. Perhaps too many staff. Delicious cakes.and presentation. Smoothie to die for. A place to linger and indulge...a rare experience in a cake shop for me as I am gluten free. I was drawn in by the board advertising gluten free pancakes but evidently these are not available after 5pm! ...so I had merangue with fresh berries. Well worth the experience. Don't take your car! £7.50 to park a diesel car for an hour!
A. C.Marvellous cakes and a great selection of coffees and teas, I've really enjoyed everything I've tried here. The things on offer are pretty novel, for example today I tried and loved their spinach cheese cake. It's open until 2300 most days so it's great for a late night tea and cake. It's very pricey though. Another serious con is that is really damn noisy, every time I come here I find myself having to shout to my partner across the table, so definitely don't come here if you want a heart to heart talk...
P. S.Yummy Cakes and pastries.. tried the pistachio Dulce De Liche and their Violet Macaron Cake. Not just the looks, the taste was just perfect with the right amount of sweetness. Their Saffron Spanish Latte was very sweet though.
S. S.You must try the honey cake and the saffron cake! Amazing place though the queue takes forever. I had to wait nearly an hour to get in. Nevertheless, definitely worth it 👌
H. B.I love this place. Looking in the window you'd think the decoration of their cakes would be their selling point but they taste even better than they look. Sunday lunchtimes are really busy (once queued for 45 mins for a table but no other alternative was going to stack up). the staff are really friendly. a waiter once brought us cream to go with our chocolate fudge cake as it was his special added extra that he thought made all the difference, and it did!
H.Full honesty: It wasn't as good as we would have liked.
The place was a bit loud (nothing really there to absorb sound) and the deserts - though they looked amazing - were just okay.
Except the chocolate cinnamon cake; that was terrible (very dry and didn't taste like chocolate).
The theme and the coffee were good though so maybe we were just there on a bad night.
M. B.Lovely cakes and very good service.
s. g.Amazing place with the best sarvis, the best napoleon cake I have ever had (I studied pastry so... lol). I get great almond milk coco with self made marshmallows, it was the most amazing experience.
So if you are in London make this place a priority!
ז. ג.Very good place for breakfast
m. o.Their window is amazing. Made us to walk in. They cakes and desserts look good but the taste is pretty bland. The service is terrible, they take ages before yo serve you. You are more likely to have a better service at any "Caffè Nero" was Friday night. The smell from the lilly flowers they had in the window was way too strong, was covering the good smell of the good looking cake I had in front of me. The image is a decoration inside.
R. T.Very loud in the cafe. Desserts were okay, but not great. The cake/crust on the raspberry tart was very dry, not enough custard/cream. Honey cake was good. Overall, not good enough to tempt me to return.
A. Y.Enjoyed my honey cake as recommended by a friend. A nice place to catch up with friends. They have an extensive breakfast menu which I would like to try in the future. The coffee here is not as good as I had expected. The blueberry toffee cake was also good!
R. M. N. R.Wide variety of beautifully decorated cakes on display which will pull you in. The Cakes were bit too sweet for me and priced on the higher end. The Hot Chocolate is definitely a No No. Watery and no taste of dark chocolate.
A. S.I really like the Cake in this store. The cake tasted so good. Soft and tender, when it was eaten the flavor of the melt that I loved it very much. The most I like the cake is the strawberries and cheese. Very suitable also made a birthday cake.
S. B.We had breakfast (lebanese and the pancakes) which was really fine but also small, cappuccino and a bulb juice and two pieces of cake and we paid ~ 60£! I mean it really tastes good but the price is too high... I quite liked the dulce cake but already had better pancakes for less money
T. N.My favourite place in London for amazing cake! ❤️
S. G.Heard about the popular "honey cake" and had to go see what the hype was about. Would definitely recommend - light, moist, perfect touch of sweetness. Staff could have been friendlier - otherwise I'm sure the other impressive desserts are just as delicious.
W. L.I loved the desserts here so much that I went back twice in two days. The cakes are amazing for anyone who has a sweet tooth. The Lychee and rose cake is to die for. Hot chocolate pot definitely will satisfy your coco craving. There is usually a wait.
F. B.Brilliant coffee too! Very bold, smooth and flavorful. Served for two.
G. F.It's a bit small but it has some beautiful cakes and nice tea options. Overall quite enjoyable place for a sweet treat.
P. S.Gorgeous looking and tasty desserts. The cheesecake was excellent!
P. A. L.Popped in earlier today for a three-course brunch; and to be entirely honest - I felt it lacked that certain je ne sais quoi to really blow me away.
I started off with an egg-white omlette, which was served with plum tomatoes, rocket salad and avocado on rye toast with seeds followed by the healthy buckwheat pancakes with berries, pineapple and coconut yoghurt. I signed everything off with the vegan apple cake with a shot of espresso.
The egg-white omlette was good, but nothing overly special. A definite plus for the thickness, texture, however, as well as the presentataion. Decently priced overall for what it was, however.
The pancakes seemed a bit overpriced and lacked in taste, despite of the beautiful presentation. I did like the idea of stacking pineapples in between the stack of pancakes to add a tiny bit of extra. Yet, unfortunately, they didn't add that much to make me fall in love with the dish.
I did love the DF apple tart, though, which was probably my favourite of the bits I had. It was just right in terms of moisture, consistency and softness which made it extremely pleasant to indulge on. The oats mixed in to give form and the berries on top to add flavour worked extremely well together and I would definitely come again to have a bite.
I do wish the df selection, however, would have a few more pieces in.
All in all, 4 (or 3.9 to be fair) stars seems.
E. T.I have walked past this place many times, right next to Hummingbird Bakery. Once, my colleague and I wandered in to have a look at their cakes (in our office, the person celebrating their birthday buys the cake - ensuring you are eating something you like) but they were too expensive and there were nothing spectacular on offer.
Well, upon someone raving about their honey cakes a few weeks ago, I walked in after work to see only 3 of these honey cakes left at 6:15pm. Duly ordered one to takeaway, noting the eyewatering pricetag of £4.80 (although the cake is a slight generous size) and the gentleman serving was pretty efficient about the whole thing, asking if I needed a plastic fork. No thanks, going to eat it after dinner at home.
The most impressive place is really the shop display at the front with all the cakes beautifully laid out. I am not sure it's really worth the price tag though as let's say, I didn't cry out in tears of joy upon tasting this infamous honey cake. It felt like it was too "soft" and not enough crunch in it. I ate what I thought were 3 mini almonds inside but apparently my friend was told they were walnuts (weird - walnuts aren't flat?) but this was not enough to counteract the rest of the "too soft" cake. It was just the right amount of sweetness and right amount of cream but to be honest, it didn't really blow me away.
The tea looks like inside though, may have to come back to try one of their fruit tarts another day with tea and service.
S. Y.An impressive array of beautiful deserts.
We saw huge queues. Luckily, we went after dinner so the queues had abated but all the tables were busy.
We decided to get a takeaway.
We got a pistachio dulce de leche and a saffron dulce de leche, both were incredibly delicious.
However the rose and pistachio cake was a huge disappointment because the flavours were totally overshadowed by the jam in the cake.
Whopping prices. The 3 items were nearly £20 for the takeaway.
Coffee was beautifully served but was lukewarm .
G. S.A very busy dessert venue that also has meals at certain times. Late at night it is dessert and drinks only. Cakes are delicious although some can be very sweet, even for the Brits.
J. L.Visited twice, both times for breakfast. Plenty of seats at 8am. Great coffee - just the right temperature with a hint of sweetness from the milk.
Breakfast was good - we tried the croissant, eggs ben and pancakes. Both of us found the Honeycake a little too sweet.
C.Best place for cake in central London! You just can't ignore the display of cakes at their shop front. The green cake is surprisingly delish, despite being low in sugar and remains my favourite cake out of the 10 or so different ones I've tried there. Other good ones are anything with pistachio. Shame they got rid of the lavendar white chocolate and pistachio white chocolate drinks. The lemonade is like nothing you will ever have. Comes in a teapot and has a complex blend of flavours. Staff seem to know about every cake and one wonders how they eat so much cake and stay in shape.
H. K.We came across this place at random due to the little queue and decided to drop in. The cakes tastes very good and worth it! Staff was polite. It is a bit cramped and it was collectively noisy haha.
S. O.Love it! Amazing cakes. We go there every month or so.
J. P.Great cake and friendly service
X. W.Fantastic little continental café, tucked away in Soho. The cakes in the window will make your mouth water but there's also a great range of savoury dishes, making it an excellent brunch spot. It's also open quite late at night, so it's a good spot for a date. The cakes and desserts themselves are also excellent, and the options are exhaustive.
Minor disappointment was the coffee, which should be better than it was. Everything else was excellent.
A. A.The saffron cake is my favourite item on the menu. Their cakes are absolutely delicious! Definitely recommending it to all my friends and family.
A. D.Lots of the desserts are very filling and sweet so don't eat too much beforehand. A large selection of cakes, recommend the honey cake especially and the dulce de leche!
F.Their desserts are amazing. Especially the milk cake with saffron sauce & the honey cake. Its a fairly small place and can get loud & crowded easily but it’s definitely worth it!
a. m.Pretty cramped, lady next to my freind kept bumping her and my freind couldn't even leave her seat as the tables were so close together. service was not great as we had to flag down the waiters each time even though the place is very small and then questioned why we didn't want to pay the optional service charges. When asking the waiter what do you recommend he responded 'Im not sure' nor was he sure if the cakes contained alcohol. Cake are very average and overpriced compared to hummingbirds next door which has reasonably priced cakes and large portions.
J. W.Because I went to the restaurant 30minutes before it closes, the staffs were rushing us to finish our food off and tell us that we have to be out before 11. Which made us feel slightly uncomfortable, and had my food to put in a takeaway box. Other than that the cakes were delicious
M. S.Very pretty display of cakes. We decided to have breakfast and had there croissants (oyster mushroom and l'ETO croissant), it was absolutely delicious. I thought at first that it would not be enough but it actually was especially that I had a drink with it. The only drawback is the service: waitresses weren't particularly smily.
S. A.First time here and didn't dissapoint. Had the honey cake and ginger tea, both very good. Nice atmosphere and good service too
L. D.Great place we always feel very welcome. Cakes, coffee, tea all is perfect. And the romanian waiter serving us every time is amazing! He is definitely a keeper! Thank you!
K. K.The dessert here was amazing!! Loved everything about it. Service could be improved a little bit. Refilling water is a must when a fatty is devouring chocolate cake.
J. G.Nice cake shop, diversity of cake, delicious
C. S.Bit pricey but amazing cake! Nice service as well :)
M. F.Absolutely decedent desserts are served at this very cute cafe. Always freshly cooked and served, the staff is highly professional and friendly, the service is prompt and punctual every time.
S.My favourite bakery in London; serving some really interesting and delicious cakes including my favourite of all time - green tea cheesecake. Only downside is that the shop in Soho almost always has a queue out the door and getting a seat would be a near miracle. However, given the quality of the cakes, even sitting outside on the pavement and eating out of the box feels better than an afternoon tea at 5 times the price. They say that cakes are fattening, but these will make you happy.
F. N.Amazing cakes but hard to get tiramisu unless you come early. Best non alcoholic tiramisu in London.
a. t.Large selection of cakes and coffee, however when we were there the machine was broken. The cakes are all very beautiful and Instagram worthy. The hummingbird cake was so so. Will be back to try the other cakes though and maybe that will increase my rating.
S. L.Extremely expensive. 2 cakes and 2 non-alcoholic drinks for £35
Don’t get me wrong, cakes were great, but not worth the price
They don’t serve hot food anymore
S. S.Excellent desserts. Love the milk cakes. Service is usually good too. Decor / vibe is slightly outdated / run down
H. A.Great for light snack or tea time. Busier at the end of the day. Cakes and salads availability varies based on time (mostly) & demand. Cozy place but seats are uncomfortable. Sweet staff=good & fast service.
D. C.I got the Turkish breakfast and now I'm left with the idea that I won't get to eat it again until I come back to London.
Amazing food, great coffee, fantastic cakes and not slammed like the breakfast club down the road. Should be 5 stars
N. D.Best time to visit is around 3-5pm. Spanish latte and classic milk cake are two things I don’t wanna miss. For the main course/brunch, their Shakshuka is really tasty!
S. M.Gone up in price so much hence the 4 stars but the cakes are awesome as always. Great breakfast. Lovely cute little place in the middle of a buzz of Wardour Street. Lovely staff.
E. M.A great affordable place for brunch. Very cosy and enough room for a group
A. x.Love this place. Beautiful cakes and very tasty!😋 I enjoy the great smells of Arabic coffee or a Spanish latte. They definitely cater to different tastes
S. S.Some of the most amazing looking desserts and cakes one may find here.
Everything taste superbly tasty.
Love the place.
D. S.Sunday's visit was not great. An attentive waitress was "counterbalanced" by a grumpy cashier. My wife tells me that the place is owned by Russians, and I have to say that the experience of standing there, with the cashier doing some record-keeping and not even looking at you, was authentic Soviet Union. My simple order of two cake slices got mixed up, and needed to be corrected. Then, a couple of minutes later, I had to chase my order of tea. (Over £4 for a tiny pot). Another waiter came by to clean the neighbouring table - and left with a shiny greasy spot still on the surface. The actual cake was very nice, but the overall experience wasn't.
C. Z.Divine cakes. Drinks amazing. Some even change colour when you pour them. The pistachio dolce leche is to die for. I had tried the pistachio cake before but the dce leche version was something other worldly. Really lovely birthday treat.
I. N.Nice dessert place.
Teas were nice as well.
Crowded. Would recommend ice cube latte. The "Instagram friendly" color changing teas are nice for pictures but icecube latte better taste specially with desserts.
Friendly staff.
A. M.The wait staff was really nice and friendly and I loved the tea in the kettle. Although I wish the ginger flavour was stronger in the tea, it was still delicious. And the cupcake was fresh and absolutely delicious. I would return!
R. B.Had to queue a while but was well worth it. The most delicious cake and coffee. If youvgetcthe chance you must try this place
I. C.Great food and ambiance, great service. But expensive.
I. Y. H.The tiny cakes, each as pretty if not prettier than the next – needless to say, I was spoilt for choice. I really liked the maple syrup and apple cake. One or two other cakes were slightly disappointing but it has such cute options, it's hard to really stay away. The croque madame was good too and they've got crepe which is always nice.
C. K.Decent place for brunch, cakes and coffee in central London - a smaller space than their Chelsea branch. Drinks prices a bit on the high side but they do special custom teas, and a wide spread of cakes (honey cake!) if you're in the mood. Also open early till late.
A. R.Every time I come back there, I love it more. The cakes are mouth-watering and I simply love the selection of teas! One of my favourite cafes in London!
M. S. (.Saffron dulce de leche - the most unique experience. Do not get tempted to much by the fancy competition cakes. That one is definitely the best and most special. I will miss it once we go back home.
V. G.Wow! Loved the inviting display of delicious looking cakes. Felt very cosy and homely once inside. Cakes tasted and looked delicious. Loved the magic violet tea!
j. h.Went there for a brunch, the food was ok although portion were a bit small. The desert cakes were unequal - some of them very good, other sickly sweet. The sitting is extremely uncomfortable - small tables, very little space, tiny waiting area... Service was also very unequal
r. d. c.It's all about cakes....coffee and afternoon tea. Worth it for the long queue
B. D.Everything in this cafe tasted like soap -- the water had mint and cucumber added to it (sounds nice but unfortunately tasted like detergent), and the chocolate fudge cake had almond paste in it and literally tasted like straight marzipan (was awful and perfumey and did not taste like fudge cake in the slightest). Lavender latte was amazing but unfortunately also tasted nothing like lavender (tasted very strongly like gingerbread/cinnamon)
In saying that, really nice atmosphere and good service
A. A.This place has great dulce de leche and other cake-type treats. They do takeaway and you have to love the red rope to control the flow in and out of the space.
S. C.Very cute little cafe hidden around the corner from ever popular breakfast club. We happened to stumble on this gem after realising (stupidly) that everyone was trying to get brunch and lines were out the door. However with its decadent front window display of the most mouthwatering cakes and a delicious brunch menu we decided to try it out. To surpass my ever growing excitement about this place, I realised they offered my favourite breakfast ever shashouka. Which turned out to be delicious and served in an Eiffel tower pan. And what meal is complete without a little sweet. We took out waiters recommendation and tried the chocolate hazelnut cake which was too die for.
Highly recommended spot. With shorter lines than overrated breakfast club.
I. S.Very lovely breakfast, although a tad expensive. The cakes for pudding were amazing though!
T. V.Nice place lovely cakes. I tried the pistachio one and it was amazing. I also recommend the spinach one because I found it interesting and I'm quite picky.
V. B.I came in for pastiera and it was great! 7.31 seems too much even for London standard though
J. P.PERFECT place for dessert in London. Popping in here for a glass of prosecco and a slice of cake to top of either a day's shopping, after work or to finish a date is the ideal cherry on the cake. They do great salads as well if you can get a table at lunch time (or take away!).
A.Amazing place with a great original menu. Food very well presented and tastes amazing. And the staff in particular the manager are doing an amazing job. I only wish as a restaurant owner I could find a similar team as they have. Keep up the great work. *****
M. O.Gave it three stars because the waiter who took out order didn't realise there was a issue with the till system until I mentioned that we waited a long time however the manager was so kind to not charge us for our meal which she didn't have to do as that's not the reason why I complained but truly shows that they care about customer satisfaction . The food and deserts where amazing .
K. M.Possibly one of the best ever x
W. T.Love their cakes. So many options!!! Good and healthy breakfast choices 😍
Their honey cake, classic dulce de leche are worth trying!!!
p.Leto is a lovely little place in the soho. They have a wonderful and delicious brunch & breakfast and a verity of coffee and tea beverage. Collection of amazing delicious cakes they are absolutely fantastic. One of the best desserts place in london.
The staff's are very friendly and hospitality ☆☆☆☆☆guys
F. A.Very good sweets, nice lemonade, staff was friendly and helpful, i tried milk cack.
E. Z.The place and the staff is very nice, but not the cakes for this price. I had the most plain tasteless napoleon I have ever tried
S. P.Very nicely presented, taste/quality is reasonable, the price is what lets this place down. Even for the area, it's still very pricey!
G. B.Another cafe I passed by so often but never went in - until recently. As I was really hungry, I did unfortunately not just go for the sweet stuff, but ordered scrambled eggs on toast. Not the best decision. Although the portion is huge, the taste was just a bit too boring. Salt and pepper helped a bit, but the for some reason it was just far from what I'd expected from this place. Lantana is definitely much better for scrambled eggs on toast! The coffee I had was better than the eggs on toast - but to be fair, that was not too difficult.
I planned to get something sweet afterwards, but after the staff threw out three women with a child, because the child, she was perhaps three or four, screamed a bit, I decided to leave. I don't like screaming children, but well, sometimes children just scream. And I think it's not fair to treat them all like that - even if it is annoying sometimes and some guests might have complained (I don't know if they actually did).
Still, I want to try something sweet there! But I guess it won't become my favourite place in Soho.
K. “. L.Love their cakes! Honeycomb and Tiramisu is the best!
K. G.Absolutely love this place! I've been to many nice restaurants around London but his is one of my favourite places to eat. The price is reasonable, food is fantastic and staff members are very polite and welcoming. Would recommend to anyone!
A. B.Never queued for food in my life but to get in it was a must to do so ! You can’t swing a cat inside !
L. A.An amazing selection of cakes awaits you here! Staff is friendly, but the venue is a small one, so either book in advance or come by at less busy times.
W. S.Amazing cakes and teas
E. Y.Love the place a gem in Soho where we can eat cake and cocktails! Always popular like a Chinese friends say, busy place is best place to eat. More branches recently.
P. B.Their old fashioned chocolate cake is to die for if you're a chocoholic.
O. A.3 stars for the amazing cakes, teas and the friendliness of most of the servers, but one guy with a ponytail is extremely slow and rude (at cutting a piece of cake mind you). May be a case of one bad apple.
M. A.A place to be for self snd srnse treat 😍👌🏼
L. T.super tasty cakes, always something to choose from, gets busy
A. E.Fantastic food, speciality coffee and good service
R. N.These desserts are something else. Fresh, full flavoured and not too sweet. The only dessert place I travel across London to visit. See you again soon
R. M.Delicious.. had the green cake and the apple pie.. make sure you walk a mile (at least) after you dip into this decadence.. Probably one of the best desserts in the area
K. S.These cakes taste exactly how they look -- insane!
A. A.Just looking at their window will draw you in, gazing at those cakes while you wait in line for your turn, only to realize the girl in front of you just to the last piece of the cake you fell in love with this whole time.
By the way, their cake are amazing.
S. L. (.Delicious! So fresh and with real ingredients.
N. A.Nice interior and very pretty cakes, but a bit disappointing compared to the visual! Still definitely recommend though!
E. Y.Honey cake is really fabulous. And if you had too much caffeine for a day, give their blueberry jasmine smoothie a try. Taste fresh and not too sweet.
M. A. J.The Honey cake is there biggy but i prefer the wet cake they do cant remember what its called but they do a choice of 3 so just ask for the wet one lol the coffee is great and Soho is a such a wonderful place to just be
H. A.Overrated.. difinitely enjoyed a couple of deserts but the crowd and service is not ideal. It is a place that stays very late so good for attracting non-drinkers. However, noise level is also high and wait times could be unncessaily annoying.
W. M.Beautiful place and nice sweets! Highly recommended
W. G.Wonderful little cafe, I had the oolong tea with nougat cake. Service was great and atmosphere was lovely. Would definitely go again!
D. G.Amazing selection of cakes too many to choose from extremely indulgent well worth the wait to get in and enjoy what was on offer.
J. O.Nice place but too crowded. I need to shout to my friend who was just sitting at the opposite side.
