One of the best places to have a very delicious vast arrays of breakfast and different food items at reasonable prices, optimal hygienic conditions and punctual service.
Wonderful cafe in the Area to have one of the absolutely best experiences. The food is freshly cooked and served with the help of a very friendly and professional staff not to mention the prompt and punctual service.
Been to London times and times again but nothing beats L'eto even though it's my first time here and it definitely won't be my last. My recommendation would be:
Saffron Dulce de luce cake:
This cake is just out of this world. Smooth and soft with a hint of saffron. Amazing.
Green Cake:
It may look weird and the ingredients of it might put you off since it has spinach but it is delicious. A must try.
Service was good and the coffee was great too. Overall this place is amazing.
Always a perfect spot for some cake and coffee! My favourite is the saffron milk cake! And for coffee lovers they should try their Spanish latte
Great service and great variety. A bit overpriced, but then again appropriate to the location. The avocado toasts were heavenly and overall, it's a very enjoyable place.
Had an awesome brunch at L'Eto today with an old school friend. We both ordered the regional breakfast- Italian... the cheese was amazing, overall loved the dish and presentation. I also ordered the Iced latte. Interesting concept, they give you frozen espresso cubes and you add hot milk to it- works well, the taste comes out very well thanks to the freezing. And lastly the staff was very courteous!! So, to all my foodies back in India, in case you visit London, this place must not be missed for a nice brunch !!
Dropped down here for the magical dessert sitting by the window that lured us in . Then we found the salad bar which changed the whole plan.
What we ate:
-2 eggplant salads
-And quinoa salad
-Beef lasagna *our highlight *
-Cheesecake
-Pistachio and rose cake
-Strawberry tart *favourite*
-Arabic coffee *least liked*
Too crowded place, not sure if that is because of summer tourist feel or it is just like that at all times! Mostly people from the Middle East and Gulf!

BEST MILKCAKE I EVER TRIED. Dessert is better than their food. I don't like how it's kept out there I find it unhygienic to a certain extent. I honestly go there for the yummiest milk cake ever.
What can I say, L'eto never disappoints. I usually visit L'eto for coffee- I consider it one of my favourite coffee spots in London. I've only recently discovered that their lunch is just as good. Their mushroom tortelloni is one of my favourite dishes, which to my disappointment was not on the menu this time around (might be just that this branch didn't serve it). However, I went for the crab spaghetti and it was absolutely delicious. I also enjoy their salads- the aubergine yoghurt and apple and fennel salad. Everything tastes fresh and light, and you never get the bloated feeling after eating which for me is a sign of the quality of the food.
I went twice. I Liked their sitting. Zafaran milk cake is amazing. For breakfast, l ate shakshoka and frensh toast. The frensh toast is good but the shakshoka is bad.
The milk cake is a must to try ... the saffron and the classic one is so yummy ,Their flat white was done perfectly 👌🏼the place was small , the tables were squeezed together that I didn't feel comfortable while sitting their
Really nice tea place the lemon and mint tea was lovely and the merengue pie as well! Near harrods and south Kensington! The cakes taste as good as they look
The milk cake is a must try!!❤️❤️ Arabic coffee is also delicious. The honey cake I didn't like it much.
Service and atmosphere is great 👍🏼
In terms of the desserts, it was amazing. Their signature cake (honey cake) is one of my favourite and it is filling. Alongside it, we had a chocolate creamy round cake.
In terms of the place itself, L'eto is a cosy/small environment with a nice vibe
In terms of customer service, it wasnt the best.
I heard from from a lot of people the cake in leto caffe , till i tried it today yummy and super yummy of milk cake
I had my breakfast shakshooka is best yummy and i tried egg Benedict but unfortunately i didnt like coffe at all i think they have reconsider the supplier but the rest is soo yummy and i love the ambience
Great setting and interior, never tried the food here only the desserts & coffee. Cakes here are splendid and the espresso isn't the best but isn't bad. Usually packed during lunch & evenings. Service is great too.
It's a nice little shop, with nice sweets. Came here, because of the hype over their honey cake.
It was honestly "okay".. Nothing amazing about it.
However, they did have a range of other desserts, such as the green tea cheesecake. My friend ordered it and it was very tasty, but quite heavy.
Otherwise, good experience, will give them another visit and hopefully this time I wouldn't be sitting in a very TINY table which was a little uncomfortable, due to the close proximity of the tables next to us.

I got hit with the flu last week, and after sloping off early from work on Tuesday for my bed, I realised that I definitely wasn't going to be able to make the launch party of the newest branch of L'Eto later that evening. I was gutted to miss it, as I've tried their cakes before and they are seriously good, so was thrilled to find out that they wanted me to go in my own time to try out their full dinner menu. I chose last Sunday evening and took the boy along with me for a lovely dinner on a not so lovely evening.We arrived wet and windswept and hungry for some food, and were greeted into a dining room that felt like someone's luxury drawing room of their home, rather than a formal restaurant setting. The leather panelled walls, gorgeous art on the walls and arm chairs mean that the restaurant is just as suited to those who want tea and cake as it is for those who want a 3 course meal, as we did. The front of the room has a buffet area, with piles of salads, cured meats and breads, while the front window is full of homemade cakes and delicatessens, as well as L'Eto branded jams and granolas.
have been there twice, in both I requested a flat white which surprisingly was a great ! didn't except such a good coffee ...
their cake was delicious and fresh, I tried their "napoleon" - if i got that name right - and it was delicious !
on my second visit for the breakfast, I changed my usual order and went for their shakshoka . I received the plate and I was a bit disappointed from the display, however once I tried it, I liked it . although its prepared in an unusual traditional way , this plate of egg omelette was perfect ! well spiced and the ingredient were fresh and well balanced ..
L’ETO Caffe has one of those windows that you don’t just walk past. You double take, retrace your steps, and gawp in the window for a moment. Then, if you’re anything like me (i.e. total lack of self restraint) you head straight in to order a cake to go. So when news came by that they don’t just serve perfectly formed cakes, but also a full dinner menu, I thought that I owed L’ETO Caffe the courtesy of at least taking them for a date before I leered at their baked goods.
Beauriful cakes I had the honey cake so so delicious and moist and I ordered the lavender creme latte. The service was very very slow but other than this the selection and quality is Devine and decorations so lovely.

Apt for its location, the restaurant itself boasts sophistication and class with high ceilings, dark hardwood floors, round marble tables, Victorian chairs -- it’s a place screaming cha-ching. Yet despite all this, it is reasonably priced as for brunch you’re looking at £9-12 without drinks. Thus with its pricing plus the appropriate music and service, instead of a snobbery atmosphere, it’s casual and chic.
The brunch options are aplenty. There’s an impressive display of luscious cakes and pastries on black slate boards, and next to it are rows of colorful Ottolenghi-esque salads and other savory treats like quiches and fish cakes. From the menu there are varied pancakes, crepes, egg dishes, toast dishes and healthier dishes like quinoa granola.
All the food came in gorgeous china plates. The cured salmon on rye was a favorite, with thick slices of beetroot-stained salmon draped over a piece of nutty rye bread. You get touches of heat and acidity and crunch from the avocado spread in between, which had chilli, lemon and pumpkin seeds. The French toast was how it was meant to be: like a pillow with crispy edges. It was accompanied by a sweet cinnamon-packed plum compote and tart roasted plums. The former was sublime but the latter could’ve had more cooking.
The pancakes looked promising with their golden crust and their impressive height and it came with drizzled honey and baked ricotta. Unfortunately, whilst being perfectly fluffy and soft, they were far too oily and eventually approaching to sickening by the third bite.
The drinks menu is a booklet listing dozens of different flavored coffees, teas, cocktails and smoothies. We had opted for a raspberry lassi and a coconut smoothie, and both were deliciously fresh and neither too sweet.

L’ETO Caffe is a boutique chain of cafes that I always recommend to friends looking for a stylish, cosy place to enjoy exquisite tea and cake in London.
The eye-catching display of colourful salads and tempting cakes is enough to lure you in, but that’s not the extent of L’ETO Caffe’s offering. The main menu boasts some creative, mouthwatering dishes and the cooking is truly accomplished.
I started with Burrata, heritage carrots, olive crumble and basil oil (£12.95). The very generous portion of burrata was cool, creamy and silky while the rainbow of lightly pickled heritage carrot ribbons added a fragrant, sweet and sour flavour. The varied tastes made the dish exciting and the olive crumble took me back to summer in the Mediterranean.
Steven tried Tomato and mozzarella stuffed gnocchi, pesto and pine nuts (£8.90). The gnocchi was light and fluffy with a rich, smooth filling and served with the most delicious fresh pesto. It was beautifully presented and was just the right size for a satisfying starter.
For my main course, I couldn’t resist the Slow-braised veal cheeks, lemon-potato crème, butter shallots and five-spice jus (£16.95). This dish was an absolute delight and winter comfort food at its very best. The slow-braised veal was so tender, flaky and plentiful, covered in a rich, meaty jus with a very subtle hint of five spice and topped with sweet caramelised onions and pistachio dust.
The smooth lemon-potato crème worked surprisingly well, with a good amount of zest, and the butter shallots finished it off nicely.
Steven went for the lighter option of Black leg chicken supreme, giant cous-cous, Putanesca sauce (£17.95). The succulent, juicy chicken was cooked on a charcoal grill, so it had a lovely smoky taste. The giant cous-cous cooked in the chicken juice was a fantastic accompaniment (one I’ll now be trying at home) and the puttanesca sauce added a spicy, fragrant kick.
It would be crazy not to leave room for dessert and bespoke tea infusions at L’ETO Caffe. The traditional Russian Honey Cake is the cafe’s signature dessert (it really is heavenly), but we went for something different this time. My dreamy Strawberry Napoleon was pure indulgence with layers of soft pastry and vanilla custard, topped with fresh strawberries. The cake was so big that I had the remaining half packed up to enjoy later at home.
I accompanied it with a calming Fresh Mint and Lemon Tea – how pretty are the glass teapots!
Steven’s Rose and Lychee Cake tasted just as good as it looked. The golden sponge cake was layered with rose raspberry jam and fragrant lychee buttercream frosting. He washed it down with a potent, warming infusion of ginger, honey and lemon.
L’ETO Caffe Brompton is a fantastic addition to this historic, cultural neighbourhood and it’s sure to make a trip to the V&A that little bit sweeter.

Remember the time I mentioned about a place in Soho with the window display that caught my eye? Yeh L’ETO Caffé has gone and opened another branch along Brompton, they already have 5 other branches dotted around London. Brompton Road is such a great spot, with Harvey Nichols, Harrods and Knightsbridge around the corner.
What is different about the Brompton Branch is the A-la Carte dinner menu inspired by Italian, French, and English cuisines. Also serving breakfast, salads, and have of course, the famous delicious home-made cakes.
I love the cakes at L’ETO Caffé, it’s super great value for money for size and quantity. Honey cake is a customer favourite, an Asian twist, with layered sponge with added matcha powder. The tea at L’ETO is equally as good the milk oolong I tried, tasted milky without milk in the tea.

L’eto Caffe really crushed me with their launch party a few weeks ago. To celebrate the opening of their Brompton Road location, they hosted a champagne and cake filled evening that was simply fabulous. Except I couldn’t eat anything.
Yes, Sunny friends, it was really poor planning on my part. You see, that afternoon I hit a hotel to review an afternoon tea that registers a £150 bill for two. Exquisite yes. Filling- very much so. Did I love it? Every morsel.
And that was the problem. By the time I made it to L’eto Caffe on Brompton Road, I felt like a Macy’s Day Parade
When I approached the glass windows of the caffe, it hit me. This was going to be painful. There were rows and rows and rows of dessert magnets screaming my name!
I stayed for about a half hour. I sipped a bit of champagne and stared longingly at all the delicious food I just couldn’t manage to squeeze in. It was torture.
And then, it was as if Harry Potter’s owl delivered an invitation to me for the Christmas Party at Hogwarts. An email popped on to my monitor while I was working a few days later…
It was an invitation to enjoy dinner at L’eto Caffe. Yessssss!
Mr. Sunny and I had a gorgeous meal there the evening we celebrated our one year wedding anniversary. It was incredible. We checked in to the Lancaster London and hit Winter Wonderland just long enough to work up an enormous appetite.
We immediately toasted our anniversary with glasses of red wine.
Next, we devoured our Starters. Mr. Sunny chose Blackened Bluefin Tuna, Pineapple, Crispy Onions and White Mango. I had a few bites, and I felt as if I transcended to Hawaii.
As I savoured the bites, images of palm trees, the ocean and sandy beaches swirled in my head. It was actually kind of funny as I sat in London across from Winter Wonderland.
I chose the Burrata, Heritage Carrots, Olive Crumble, and Basil Oil. Prepare yourself for some absolutely museum worthy images here, Sunny friends.
Ok, now I wasn’t talking about my photography skills. This dish is a blaze of colours. From every angle it is a piece of art work. And the taste…. THE TASTE!
I could get all up in your grill with alliteration and fancy metaphors, but I won’t. I’ll just say The. Dish. Rocked.
Since I was technically on the outer border of Winter Wonderland, I was curious if I had actually stepped in to Oz. The carrots of so many unusual colours made me feel like Dorothy discovering the Horse of a Different Colour.
Next is the tricky part. Mr. Sunny and I both desparately wanted the ‘Allen’s of Mayfair’ Beef Fillet, Ceps, Selection of Onions, Crones and Rosemary Jus.
I almost pushed Mr. Sunny in to the Boneless Grilled Dover Sole, Sea Herb Butter, Quinoa and Fennel for his Main Course so we could have more pictures for you. However, the week before he had some extremely overcooked fish at a restaurant just around the corner.
Since it was our anniversary, we decided we would just pick what we both wanted. We were verrrrry happy with our decision!
How could we deny each other that hunk of beefy love for dinner?
Making sure to save room for dessert for this visit, I let my Prince Charming choose for me.
I ordered a gluten free chocolate fudge cake. And, yes every ounce was delicate, moist and divine.
Mr. Sunny picked a profiterole. He said it was perfect.
Before we left, we sipped on a few after dinner drinks to get ourselves ready for more wild rides at Winter Wonderland.
But just before we hit the door, I had to make sure you could see a little more of this fabulous new food opportunity on Brompton Road just inches away from Harrods in London.
Make sure you save room for dessert!!!
L’eto Caffe is located in Belgravia, Fulham, King’s Road, Mayfair and Soho. They serve an a la carte menu for lunch and dinner at King’s Road and Belgravia. There’s also a brand new breakfast menu at both those places too. The Brompton Road L’eto Caffe has a private dining room downstairs that is a fabulous place to host a dinner for a group of friends or colleagues.
Our meal was complimentary for the purpose of a review. That doesn’t change my opinion of the experience. I’m still wondering how they got me to be so excited about having yellow and purple carrots for dinner.
I just can’t. This place is so wonderful! It’s whole design is beautiful, the food is delicious. Specifically the Strawberry Cheesecake, the taste was so exquisite and delicate it was magical. I sadly did not take any actual food to eat but I’m sure it’s just as yummy!

Another real gem in Knightsbridge, located next to two other Instagramable coffee shops.
For the area the shop was a good size and can seat a large number of cake and coffee lovers.
The staff were very attentive, hospitable, and I felt they genuinely care about their customers. We also felt the service was amazing.
I chatted to the people who sat on the tables next to me, and they said they keep coming back because they love the product and feel appreciated.
I loved my Saffron cake and chai karak, it is not on the menu, but the chef makes it on demand.
My friends also enjoyed their food, pomegranate tea, frappe and mimosa 🩷
Every time I passed a pastry shop, I promised myself that I had to try at least one cake that was begging to be bought. You look at the beautiful exhibition and cakes that scream - eat me 😀
Today I had the opportunity to buy one of the exhibition cookies.
Honestly, I was disappointed.
The truth is that eyes eat.
I bought a cheesecake that looked fabulous because I love cheesecakes and I was curious about its taste, but as I mentioned, I wasn't impressed with the taste of this cake, although it looked delicious.
The atmosphere, decor and service were fantastic, unfortunately no cookie, but maybe next time I'll ask for another one
Perfect place for desserts and evening teas. The atmosphere is great, especially date nights and meet ups. Saffron, pistachio and classic milk cakes are a must try here. There other cakes are also great. Service is great too. Little pricey side but worth the experience once in a while. You can expect each cake slice to be around £9 and an english breakfast tea around £5. Been my spot for many years. Recommended to try!
Listening to the reviews I went in for a cake and it was definitely a good decision.
The pistachio cake is superb, highly recommended. The place was quite busy but the service was quick and came with a smile!
The one thing that could make the experience better if the cakes were also available on the menu and you wouldn’t need to go to the window first to select what you wanted. A nuance but when the place is busy it can get a bit awkward.
Regardless, great place.
Best milk cake in London. But it's stupidly expensive and not sure if it's worth it and yet i keep coming back. The portion size for milk cake is quite small and presentation is never great because in reality they should present it in a bowl because it has a lot of liquid.
One of my friend suggested this place. We tried saffron and classic cream cake. Trust me the best cake I ever had. Must try saffron cake. Cafe vibes also very very positive. Staff also very very wel coming.
Best saffron milk cake🫶🏻🫶🏻, but the staff was a little bit rude when we came directly to set they told us that we should wait in queue but most of the tables were empty!! And close the way in front of us! I don't like this behavior.
We passed by the place to have some tea/coffee and try their cakes. I loved their tea and the pistachio & rose cake, the raspberry tart was okay. Overall a great experience but a bit pricey.
I had the most wonderful experience indulging in a delectable pistachio latte and a heavenly pistachio cake. The combination of flavors was simply divine. The latte had the perfect balance of creamy milk and rich pistachio essence, while the cake was moist, fluffy, and bursting with the delightful nutty taste of pistachios. The presentation was also impeccable, with beautiful garnishments that added an extra touch of elegance to the overall experience. I cannot recommend this delightful duo enough for anyone who appreciates the unique and exquisite flavors of pistachio. It truly was a marvelous culinary adventure that left me craving for more.
Super amazing staff, so friendly! Food is delicious would definitely recommend! 5 star overall😁
Whenever I am in London, I always try to visit the caffe for a dessert. Their desserts are consistently good, never disappoint me, as well as coffees and teas. Dumplings were delicious as well. The location make it easy to drop in, whenever you are in the city centre. I highly recommend the place to everyone.
The best place for cake & patisserie in London. This time we had the tiramisu but any cake can be highly recommended!
A great place to eat something delicious in when visiting London. The food was absolutely amazing and the staff was super polite and understanding. I'm so glad I found this place!
