    Small yet cosy place next to Aldgate/Aldgate east tube stations. It was pretty busy on Sunday late morning, which is usually a good sign. Luckily, they have downstairs seating, so could squeeze us in. Excellent brunch, well-presented too! Portions are of decent size, and arrived pretty quickly too. Nice place to start your day!

    Full French Toast Breakfast

    Everything we ordered tasted very good. So freshly made and nothing else needed. This place was recommended by my friend and did not disappoint. The service is very fast and the staff are all smiling, welcoming and nice. The place is well lit. There is an underground area where the restroom is. That part of the stairwell is a little cramped for tall people.

    The inlet with homemade bread

    Me and a group of friends randomly stopped in here one morning for brunch. The omelet was excellent, the coffee was good, and the star of the show was the homemade bread. The place is small but inviting. They have stuff in the front for take out. All the food is really reasonably priced. Would definitely come back here again.

    Walked upon this place and decided to have breakfast here. Cute little cafe! Had so many delicious pastries up front and everything looked and tasted so fresh. Ordered the royale and eggs with toast. Service was okay.

    Fast and convenient right next to Clayton hotels. Sandwiches was served hot and in large portions. We ordered Eggs Benedict, eggs with guacamole, rustica sandwiches and spinach and feta cheese sandwiches and all delicious!! Price was really reasonable . Restaurant was small and had extra seatings in lower floor if needed. Overall a great breakfast experience and would recommend to all!!

    Eggs Benedict

    Wonderful food! Came out quickly and good prices! We had the eggs Benedict, French toast, and caramel lattes which were all great.

    Full English Breakfast, Amazing!!
    Manny F.

    We discovered Dulce Cafe by accident as we were walking by on our first night in London, as we stayed at the Clayton across the street. We came over and had the full breakfast and coffee and after seeing the wonderful pastries and breakfast sandwiches in the case we knew we would have to be back. Each morning we returned to a warm smile as we were recognized and remembered by the kind gentleman behind the counter. Each day we tried something different and each day we were extremely pleased, from the full English, the chocolate croissant, the blueberry muffins and the croque monsieur, everything was delicious. My only complaint was that we didn't stay enough days to finish trying everything they offer, the quiches looked amazing. If you are in the area, or even if you're not, it would be worthwhile to stop by and have a taste. Oh, and by the way, their prices are the best thou will find in London. I can't wait until I return to London to visit them again!!!

    Very nice and relaxing cafe with friendly and attentive staff. Italien style cafe with a very french ambience. We had the chai latte and a mozzarella avocado tomato pesto focaccia. Toasted to perfection it was very light and tasty. The chai latte, although not the prettiest presentation, proved a smooth chai flavour with a light cinnamon finish. All in all this is a very good place for a morning coffee and a bite to eat, especially in company of your date.

    Front display counter

    This looks like a grab-n-go type of place because a lot of the food is pre-prepped and filling the display shelves, but they also have a handful of made fresh-to-order breakfast items. All of the food is fresh (made daily), really good quality, and very friendly service. During my breakfast, I heard the man taking orders (seemed like the manager/owner) welcoming back people who had been in a day or two before and asking them how their trip has been going so far. That certainly says a lot. Knowing this people are just passing through, he doesn't need to engage with every customer, but he does, and that says a look about the type of person running this cafe. And that quality carries through to the food as well. We picked a few items from the display counter and ordered a breakfast meal. Both were served with a small side salad. Although pre-prepared and heated up upon ordering, I could tell the egg sandwiches and croque monsieur were made fresh that morning. Whether you're looking for a quick bite to grab on the go or want to eat in, this cafe is a great option!

    Wonderful breakfast!

    My friends and I discovered this little gem our second day in London and were so impressed by the food, coffee, and service that we came back twice!

Well, today I was…read moredoing just that and it was then that I stumbled upon this branch of the small but mighty Taylor-Street-Baristas emporium. It was actually the buzz inside this place that attracted me most - dozens of dolled up city folks were patiently waiting for their lattes and cappuccinos, while soaking in the yuppy/hippy atmosphere of this space. In fact, I would go as far to say that this is a good mixture between the efficiency of Starbucks and the quirky authenticity of a coffee shops like Look Mum No Hands or St Ali. The stand-out experience for me was the bircher müsli. In fact, it was just like I love it: moist, fruity, & sweet! On the other hand, I was rather disappointed with the drip/filter coffee that they served, as it was quite bitter and off-tasting - hence only 4 stars. Overall I really like this place: there's ample seating and fantastic people-watching!

Nice and chilled vibe, not too loud, lovely friendly staff and the coffee really is something special. I'm not generally a fan of milky coffees but on a trip to oz my mrs made me try a "proper flat white" made by a friend of hers (one of the most talented and passionate baristas I've come across). It was amazing. The London versions I'd tried before had been crappy ersatz versions thereof...until I tried this place some months ago. Full bodied, creamy with just the right amount of bitterness. My regular coffee (about 3 a day on last tally) is an espresso, and i still believe that the italians can teach the worlds best hipster barista a thing or 2 about espresso (cappuccino, latté etc...) and the problem I've always had with these new-wave hipster cafs is that while they can often churn out lovely frothy milkshake-esque coffees, their espressos are disgusting, salty, up dosed/underextracted. None of that here. Nice, sharp and robust but smooth...and no saltiness.

    It's an exquisite and well-restored piece of history…read more Initally, the idea of an exchange came in 1562. When merchant Sir Thomas Gresham (1519-79) established it, Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603) opened on 23 January 1571, and she granted it its 'Royal' title. The old structure had burned down twice. The current neoclassical style building was designed by Sir William Tite (1798-1873) in the 1840s. The long-term tenant was Lloyd's of London, an insurance market, for a century and a half. Now, the three-story-high, overarching glass dome provides the airy atrium with ample light, housing restaurants such as Fortnum & Mason, and high-end shops, including a Tiffany & Co. branch. Googling the oldest exchange, two answers turned up: ~ The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, founded in 1602 ~ The barter system was introduced by the Mesopotamian tribes around 6000 BC ... wondering why the London's Royal Exchange didn't make the list.

If the façade of the building looks familiar, it's likely because (like many other buildings around the world) it was inspired by the design of the Pantheon in Rome. The Exchange gets its 'Royal' title after Queen Elizabeth I opened the original in 1571. an exchange building is generally utilized for telecommunications or foreign currency. However, as a commercial building, exchanges date back to at least the 13th century. The building is one of London's top luxury shopping locations, and visitors to the city should definitely add it to their list of places to visit. The stores at the Royal Exchange are hand-picked to elevate the elegance and class of the building. The beautifully designed courtyard also makes it difficult to resist spending a fair amount of time here.

I haven't been at a market though for ages and haven't have any arancini for longer - so I was happily excited to see the Arancini Brothers logo when I was killing some time looking around the shops at Liverpool Street station. I immediately went up the stairs into Broadgate and was rewarded with a tiny little shop with a limited menu - stew box, salad box, or wrap. I do think they did more but I was blinded by the arancini... I really only wanted a box of 4 arancini with their lovely garlic mayo but thought I'd counteract the starch with some salad and went for the salad box. £4.50 I believe, for 4 arancini and some basic - but tasty - salad. As I went late in the day and they were going to close soon, the girl behind the counter gave me a couple extra arancini. They were as good as ever, but as it was late they were a little on the hard side. However, they were still delicious and I didn't leave a scrap of the arancini. The salad was fine - a lettuce mix, topped with shredded carrot with chickpeas, and then some jalapenos and crispy onions. I'm definitely going to be going back soon during lunch time to get some arancini done up nice and fresh, and hopefully will be able to update this to the 5 star review I know they deserve when they're on point.
