Perhaps I should.. Not much of a coffee drinker either but a nice pot of decent tea sounds more up by street.


Will report back.

Went there this morning.. Delightful little place...


Had a Pot of Tea 2.00 and one of those spirally current things (Pain aux raisins) ? 2.25


Tea was fresh in a proper china tea-pot with little milk jug.

Pain aux raisins was very fresh.


Lovely atmosphere with pleasant low level background music so you can talk without shouting.

Loved the simplicity of the d?cor and the little cushions. Not at all ostentatious.


Very attentive and pleasant staff..


Hope not too many people find out about it. I want it all to my self .. :)


No. Well worth a visit..


Could not resist the rustic sugar cubes Brown and White. not good for my B.G. levels..

But then I discovered they have gone to the trouble of providing Sweetners.

Dear French Cafe,


Please see that all but the OP on here loves your cafe. I myself have been for many years and never had a bad experience. I like too that it feels so friendly and local. I often see the same faces (both customers and staff) so that says something about your service. Loyal return custom always does. Think nothing of the OP. You and the staff have always gone out of your way to make room as best as possible for me, any guests I've been with and my LO. The food and coffee are always great. The OP must have been somewhere else ;)

I was amused to see a blackboard in Lordship Lane today advertising the Brick House and including the words "Average Looking Staff!" :)) :)) :))


ETA: Yas seems to have done wonders in getting this cafe known and loved by new customers. All good!

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
