This place just whoooosed right up to the top of my fvaourite cafes in Convent Garden list. Possibly on a par with Canela. Blimey.
We popped in after a mammoth shopping trip today (really, read the rest of my reviews today). Coffee and cake were needed and Neal's Yard was the perfect place for sitting, chatting and looking at all of our purchases.
We spied the cake on the way in and it looked yummy. Annoyingly it wasn't priced though - very sneaky, but actually, we didn't care and wanted to rest our shoppy feet. And my goodness we were rewarded with the best banana cake ever. Well, i was, my friend had a rather lovely carrot cake.
The cake came with cream, and toffee sauce, which turned my banana cake rather nicely into banoffee cake. Very happy me. The latte was yum too. Served large as standard for £2.50. Yes please! More of that! The cake was £3.75 a slice and worth every penny.
I'll be back, and if you're in the area you really should pop in and try that cake. read more
