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!

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
