Yes this is a chain, but one we found comfort in as a place to both grab some hearty food and quick on the go pastries. We saw multiple locations throughout the city but ate a this one near our accommodations with a sit down meal. We had just gotten off of our flight and this was a great start to the trip. It was easy to get seated at an indoor table around 1:30pm. The staff was friendly and the menu had so many good options. The Halloumi and avocado bagel was something unique that was really good. The portions are large and I also had some of the side sausage, which was cooked perfectly and a quality piece of meat. They also have fun drinks on thier menu like the matcha latte, which was good. read more

Some things in life are just right, this is one of them. Amazing Shakshuka , grapefruit juice and espresso in a darling cafe at a very fair price. read more

L'eto Caffe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

Its a cute little cafe in the heart of Knightsbridge, seating available outside as well, but limited. The inside is decorated well and gives that high end feeling. We had gone for brunch and I ordered the crab cakes eggs benny, which was tasty. Hollandaise sauce was really good. Wife ordered the Classic English Breakfast and loved it, she loved the variety of items on her plate. The lunch buffet looked amazing as well. The coffee is the reason I took off a star, it came cold (well not cold but you know what I mean), so I ordered another in a takeout cup and asked them to make it extra hot and that one was hot. I think the coffee pots and cups they use do not allow for much lingering. Service was not something to write home about but there was nothing wrong with it either. I would come back here for sure to try other items on the menu. read more

We stumbled upon this cafe when strolling through London. The window showed amazing, beautiful pastries. On our first visit we picked up some pastries for my friends and myself, among them an amazing strawberry cheesecake that my friend still talks about. ORDER: Avocado Toast; Egg white omelette; Arabic Regional Plate; Veal Ossobucco; Strawberry Cheesecake; Passion Fruit Tea AVOID: French Toast and going during prime breakfast/lunch times as it gets quite busy In addition to their pastries, they also have hot food. I absolutely loved their avocado toast. It was simple, but delicious. The red pepper flakes added an amazing amount of flavor without too much heat. They will even add a poached egg if you ask. My friend got an egg white omelette with avocado tartines, tomatoes, and arugula salad. The regional plates are also good options. My other friend got the Arabic Regional Plate and loved it - they served it with one of the best falafels I have ever tried. If you are in the mood for something less breakfast-like, then I highly recommend the Veal Ossobucco Ravioli. It is quite flavorful and not heavy at all. The creamy cheese sauce on it is light and used sparingly, keeping the dish from getting too rich. The last entree was the French Toast, which my friend said though it was "ok" he would never get it again. Their iced tea is served in adorable, clear teapots. Two of my friends ordered their passion fruit tea. It was superb and had real, fresh pieces of passion fruit in it! The latte was also quite nice. read more

Worst place in London for sure. I sit down to rest on a chair to eat my food they tell me I need to order food from their restraunt. I order something off the menu and tell me I cannot eat my food there after I ordered they still tried to kick me out. Worst place in this country. read more

The buffet looked and tasted amazing. we tried their coffee in a cone which was actually a little disappointing but everything else was perfect Ambiance - Great Pricing - above Average Taste - Great Service - Great read more

So this is my first experience of l'eto. This is what we ordered; açai, lebanese and turkish breakfasts (the turkish without celery). Drinks ordered were cappucino and double espresso. A bottle of water (seraldina) ordered. The ABE review is as follows: Food: the lebanese breakfast had a well poached egg and was runny. The falafel was not authentic. The portion is miniscule and the beetroot hummus was awful. The açai was very runny and diluted to the point of being watery. The açai is of dubious quality. Drinks: double espresso- served cold with a small glass of sparkling water. Who brings sparkling water with double espresso? Not appropriate. Capuccino was nothing special. Staff: rude waiter (goatee guy) who annoyed both us and another table with his lack of manners. When asked about our food which we waited for 30 minutes for he said " it come when finished"??? So no manners! Wait time: waited too long for the food other people ordered later and got their food earlier Price: £58 read more

Had breakfast here. I thought the food was very expensive. The coffee was twice what you normally pay and was nothing special. I had the crepe which came with fresh fruit. They really did not give you much fruit and the crepe was very bland. Overall not a very good meal read more

My favourite place for desserts and coffee as the cake selection is legendary and truly unique! Sometimes is difficult to find a table, but they also serve take away if you don't want to wait, but it is worth it as the staff is really friendly and helpful! read more

Very cute place for baked goods. Got the dulce de leche milk cake (employee said it was their speciality). It was really fantastic, perfectly moist and flavorful. Wish I had gotten more flavors of the milk cake to try... I also got the carrot cake. There was a good amount of nuts in it and the frosting was amazing. read more

I came here for brunch on my last day in London as I was headed out to Heathrow to fly back to the states, as they say in the UK, and was impressed. I had the Turkish breakfast with menemen eggs, goat's cheese, tomatoes, beef sausage, onion, celery, mint and black sesame toast. It had a really nice mix of flavors and textures. To drink, I had the Nutella iced coffee. It was delicious, with an intense chocolate hazelnut flavor. The ice cubes were actually made with coffee, which was a really nice touch. For dessert, we had the honey cake and the raspberry tart, which were both good. I preferred the honey cake, which came recommended by the waiter. The tart was good too, but wasn't very sweet at all. I would definitely come back here, or to another L'eto location, the next time I'm in London. read more

A true delight, this place! We came upon it when we noticed the long line outside the café in Soho, and happened upon another location the following day. Now I know why people will queue up to eat here! Quite possibly the very best cake I have ever had, specifically referring to the Rose cake. Silky, smooth, creamy, so moist and saturated with rosewater, and not a hint of food color or artificial flavoring. These folks boast healthy and high quality ingredients (sans the sugar of course!). My partner had the honey cake, which along with all the other yelpers we give a hearty thumbs up to. Truly superb. Excellent coffee for London as well. We had a trio of cold salads for lunch, all of which were whole food and fresh. I recommend the butternut squash with yogurt and spices. Good service. A bit spendy but I have no regrets. Didn't like how crowded in the tables were together(I'm a small person and rarely feel crowded), but I'd go back in a heart beat! read more

I don't always give 5 star reviews, but this place wasn't really bad. Although, they don't do substitutes on pasta sauces apparently. But their tea is in cute little teapots with straws in them and food comes in good portions! read more

L'eto Caffe - The Lebanese--yogurt, falafel, pita bread, hummus (the pink stuff) and scrambled eggs - Coffee & Tea Near Me - London, XGL

I don't know how this place has 4 stars rating. Not a single person asked me if I'm being served. I have two forks & a napkin in front of me. No menu. Who needs two forks btw? Very uncommon to be sitting in a "swanky" place but no one comes up to you to check if you're here to eat or just sit here and look suspiciously fancy? Two ladies walked in and got their menu before I did. So I asked for a menu, got one. Waited again, just to see more of the staffs walking up and down. Managed to make eye contact (that's right, no eye contact) and stopped the same waiter who passed me the menu and finally got my order. A latte and a truffle bar. He repeated my order. This place isn't massive, its small. I've never felt so invisible in my life. Like, if I had a skin color, it would have been clear. I felt like I had to beg for attention just to get an order through. My latte arrived, my truffle bar made it after I downed half a cup of my coffee. Not sure if he forgot my order after repeating it to me, or he was expecting the Truffle bar to walk itself towards my direction. I would have gladly picked it up myself, but apparently this is not a self service kind of restaurant. Since I'm already here, I'm just going to sit here and slowly enjoy my latte and truffle bar while a bunch of people queue outside to find a sit to get their lunch. I could have just sat here all day and read my book without dining and could have got away with it. First and last time. read more

Quiet little spot hidden just off Sloane Street in Knightsbridge, Closet station in Knightsbridge. With beautiful cakes in the window that lure you inside and an outside sitting space. I went after a temp role on a Tuesday evening and it was very quiet with only 5 people there at most. I was given the menu and choose the Saffron & Lobster seafood risotto £19.95 with a glass of Malbec and a lovely chocolate cheesecake and espresso shot to end with. In all cost around £32 but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to two posh girls gossip and of course the lovely food. All in all lovely experience read more

It was swanky but super expensive. $50 for 3 desserts and 3 teas. They were out of honey cake why we got there. I wouldn't go back just because it was so expensive. read more

My favourite place for cakes. They do taste as good as they look. Trust mez, close your eyes randomly pick one and they are all delicious. Today I had the dulce le something I thing it's relevant to condense milk, so basically it's cake soak in condense top with unsweetened whipped cream that balancing the sweetness from the liquid underneath. However this cake is relatively smaller than the other tho. read more

Their lavender latte is amazing!! Also had the classic breakfast which come with eggs of your choice, toast with avocado, and a small salad (arugula, tomatoes, olive oil). Very light and simple but very satisfying. I will be back while staying in the area. Free wifi. Minus two stars bc service is slow, and staff is unfriendly and stuffy. They act like getting you a glass of water is the equivalent of running a marathon. read more

Fantastic cakes and hot drinks. Very friendly and attentive staff. I love all L'eto caffes, but this one is especially cozy!

Stumbled upon this cozy little place on a particularly rainy night in London. What a pleasant surprise! Friendly, attentive staff. Great selection of food, sweets, and drinks. I absolutely recommend you to try their honey cake. And while you're at it, order a latte honey and hazelnut to go with that too. You will not be disappointed. read more

I have been there before and the place is very nice and has great food and coffee. I wanted to return with my wife and our newborn baby (in his pram) and they refused to let us in despite the fact that there were 2 empty tables. Pc course the pram would have been in the way but so it is in most places in London and when places with a lot less space have tried to accomodate us. Terrible service.... read more

Love their food, fresh and delicious. the honey cake is a popular dish a definite must try.

I came with a few friends, and we had a delightful time. The service is great - they even helped us pick out cakes when we had a hard time deciding. They have a great selection of desserts including some surprises like the green cake (spoiler: it's made with spinach and is divine). I will definitely come back here! read more

An entirely forgettable menu, with multiple presentations of recycled combinations of the same ingredients, and the rudest customer service I have encountered in London, entirely driven by the surly and unhelpful manner of the manager. I was so disgusted with the experience I left my food, paid for but uneaten. We will not be back. read more

After an early morning stroll through Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, we enjoyed a scrumptious breakfast here. The coffee was fantastic, the pancakes were out of this world, and the service was excellent! After we were done, we found it impossible to pass all the treats on display without buying a few for a snack later in the day. They too were delicious! read more
