When I saw the menu, EVERY single one of them was based around eggs. Actually no.. Sorry, there was one granola option... Luckily I got their lunch menu to choose from. To make the story short - I chose soup, it tasted ok, when it came to the table, it was super hot. The waitress didn't know their menu (apparently the menu is just fresh new.. yeah, right.. I pretended I cannot see those old greasy stains on both sides...) Coffee was nice. Although, I've had better, but it perked me up successfully, so mission accomplished.. Would I go there again? Probably no... There are some other much more interesting places around and Byron at the riverside...

The staff can be quite slow but will always help you.

I started with the Camembert Frit (Camembert cheese coated in breadcrumbs, fried, and served with redcurrant and raspberry coulis). This was delicious! The cheese paired so well with the raspberry coulis and it was no greasy at all (perfectly fried). For my main course, I got the Steak d'Agneau au Romarin Grilled lamb steak with red wine & rosemary sauce (served with sautéed potatoes). This was delicious as well! The lamb steak was so tender and flavorful and the sauce went so well with it. The potatoes also went very well with the lamb. I have also had their Filets de Cabillaud Rôti (baked cod fillets with sun-dried tomato and cream sauce), served with leek and potato mash. This was excellent! The cod was so fresh and the sauce was to-die-for! I could have licked all of the sauce off of my plate (if it were socially acceptable haha). The sauce was so fresh and paired so well with the fish. The potato mash was also fantastic--perfect texture. For dessert, I had a rhubarb tart. This was delicious! I loved how the tart wasn't too sweet and I could really taste the rhubarb. The service was also excellent. The servers and managers were very attentive and considerate of my husband's allergies. They were super accommodating, which is the reason we came back again!

A hidden French delight, just off Bermondsey street…read more Tucked at the back of some tennis courts in a public park, I wouldn't have known this place even existed were it not for a cryptic business card from its nearby sister restaurant (Casse-Croûte). Here, there is none of the intimacy that you get at Casse-Croûte but it somehow still feels personal and cozy. A seasonal menu is presented for lunch and dinner, with a selection of starters bolstered by several solid mains. No specials were on offer, so presumably the menu stays as is for a few months. Each main was intended for two, but such generous portions meant that this solo diner had to choose a couple of starters. The onion soup was a delicious, less filling twist on the classic version with a cheesy foam on top and a sablé to accompany, rather than the standard heavy croûte. The black pudding scotch egg was actually comprised of boudin noir, not black pudding which gave it a softer almost pasty interior that sat nicely in contrast to the crisp crumbed exterior. The enclosed egg was runny soft and rich. The sweet and earthy purée that the egg sat on complemented it well, though I found the scattered pickled chanterelles to be too sharp and acidic to work with the other ingredients. Some fragrant eau de vie de poire kept me going until the blueberry soufflé arrived with a dollop of rich pistachio ice cream. Overall: I'd go back, with my wife, to be able to unlock more of the menu. Pricey, but worth it if you want to eat something special whilst feeling comfortable.

Their food was underwhelming. I ordered the Escargots and the mussels mariniere. The escargots were well executed. They came in a butter/garlic sauce that was too salty. The mussels were 1/4 unopened. The sauce was watery and not memorable. The mussels that did open were soggy and not super fresh. The bread served with this dish was slightly stale and did not naturally soak up the mussel sauce.

As a wine shop it is pretty much like any other, with the odd offer here and there, but what is great is the small simple wine bar to the left of the shop. It is pretty un-obvious and as wine bars go, not the plushest. It has a wine list as you might expect, but what is unusual is that you can buy a bottle of wine in the shop (or Champagne - ofetn on offer) and they open it for you in the bar for a corckage fee of just one pound. So where as in most places you may end up paying double the price you'd pay in a shop, here it is just an extra quid! If you do go I recommend getting a plate of their fabulous french cheese or their meet platter with great French bread. The waiters are really knowledgable about the wine too.
