    Too much cake to eat it all.
    Jules H.

    This cafe doesn't look much from the outside ... and to be honest, it doesn't look that great from the inside either. But the food is soooooo yummy. We had smooth hummus to share in the beginning. My friend then had a lovely toasted ciabatta sandwich with roasted vegetables and I had a walnut and goats cheese salad (sooo much cheese and soooo many walnuts). I did not expect this cafe to come up with such nice food and was proven wrong. It was delicious and affordable. They also have cakes on display ... it was proper cake porn ... and I could not by the live of me resist the temptation of a small slice of heavenly dense chocolate brownie cake with cream. It nearly killed me (like the fat man in Monty Python), but it was worth it. One thing: No card payments. Only cash.

    Strawberry Tart
    Kel C.

    TL;DR 10/10 would recommend, the desserts are a must. An unassuming little cafe located directly across from Duke of York's theatre, the casual and simplistic atmosphere is more than made up for in the quality of their desserts and pastries. Plated with a detail towards artistry, the strawberry tart was light and the black forest gateau was extraordinary. It makes for a wonderful meal between matinee and evening performances with a generous pot of tea.

    Good spot for quick meal in the West End
    Jeff H.

    When you need a tasty and quick bite to eat in the West End, the Café at La Roche is a perfect pit stop. La Roche has a full-scale restaurant of the same name next door to the café but the café is quicker, more informal, and cheaper. There is a great array of pastries and Lebanese influenced dishes on offer at the café. I really like the Lebanese moussaka served with crispy pita bread. It's tasty, it's filling, and it's healthy. Keep the Café at La Roche in mind for lunch or a West End pre-theatre meal.

    Service is reserved and slow. Food is mediocre. Location is good, that's where I got tricked. All in all - tourist trap.

    The lamb kofta was verry tasty. Not too many vegetarian options but one of the few that they have was tasty too (moussaka).

    Im quite biased as i really enjoy their chocolates. When we found this on Yelp, we had to make the…read more1/2 mile hike from Elizabeth Tower. It was well worth hiking one of the few hills in London for this. The lines moved quick and was served promptly. First order your sizes then pick your flavors. I got a medium and order pistachio, vanilla and mili chocolate with a cone. Every flavor was amazing! Arguable the best of these flavors ever! The quality and flavors.. amazing!

    Last but not least, this was our final stop of the night. The ice cream shop was absolutely packed,…read morewhich was a great sign. They offered more than 20 freshly made flavors, making it difficult to choose. I ordered the Hazelnut and Chocoviar 75%, while my friend chose the Lemon and Hazelnut. Both were delicious, rich, smooth, and flavorful without being overly sweet. The only downside was the portion size, which felt a bit small for the price. What made the experience even better was enjoying our gelato afterward at Covent Garden. We found a spot to sit outside and watched a hilarious street performer from Canada entertain a huge crowd. He even noticed me taking a photo and playfully posed for the camera, which made the moment even more memorable. We absolutely loved the atmosphere around Covent Garden. There are so many great restaurants and shops, and the lively outdoor setting, combined with talented street performers, made it the perfect way to end our evening. :)
