Really really want this place to do well as the food is home made and delicious. However each time I've been there it has been virtually empty with lots of people stopping to look and then walking past without coming in. It's such a shame. I do think that the decor is a bit stark and uninviting but the owner is far from uninviting and the food really is so nice. Definitely one to try if you've seen it and had second thoughts.
Amazing coffee, cakes, GF cornbread and salads! Music is also cool! Love this place to meet up with friends and to spend some hours working. �
I come here whenever I can; delicious food and amazing coffee. My children have always enjoyed lunching here and long may that continue!! Indie businesses make our community.
Tried for the first time today, Delicious coffee and cake, wonderful play area for my son and so so friendly. Other Muswell Hill cafes could learn from this place !
We just had a couple of coffees but they were very well made and very enjoyable. My only gripe would be that we sat outside and drank them so china would have been a better environmental choice, but we we still had to use disposable cups. Such a waste. Especially as they sell re-usable coffee cups too.

Lovely little shop and cafe with a warm atmosphere. I didn’t have anything to eat/drink but almost everything is made on-site (wow!). Great variety of gifts, clothing and collectibles. Things were reasonably priced for such a place in London. I will be back!
I had a coffee with a friend of mine, everyone was really nice and the coffee was delightful! I definitely recommend this place
I fell in love with this cafe ! It’s cosy, everybody is so kind and i the food is so cute and delicious 😍 Thanks a lot 🫶🏻
This place is so cool, everyone should taste their amaretti and their peanut butter cookies ! Also, staff is so sweet ! Thank u so much !!
La Dinette is the perfect cafe for those who want to take their kids to a Broadway cafe without worry of judgement from other diners. Very child friendly. Great staff too. An array of books and toys and activities for kids to do and a great coffee too. I only had eggs and sourdough soldiers, a freshly squeezed OJ and a flatwhite, but they were perfect. Plenty of highchairs and space for pushchairs too.
There is space for children, the inside of shop is clean, as much as possible to be able to relax at least for one person with family．
Both drinks and food are delicious．
I love this place. Great service, great coffee and a big plus is that they are open at night. I give this place a 10.
Great coffee and really friendly service. Would definitely recommend popping in.
La dinette is a little piece of France in North London, the coffee, bread, pastries are brilliant. Last week we had an unforgettable Pistachio chocolate croissant we are dreaming of and begged the owner to make again.😂 The owner is passionate, genuine and it’s testimony to her and the quality of her offer that the business survived and thrives post Covid. Cute little seats outside, it’s worth a visit.
Nice place with an interesting selection of odd bits and bobs Wife bought a cool beanie hat which she loved. Haven't tried the food or drink but will definitely return to try. The cake/sweet selection looked great.
I came to a delightful pop up evening meal at my favourite cafe one evening in the summer and asked if Claire (the owner) would consider putting on a meal for my 60th birthday.
I could not have imagined it would be so good. Claire and her team designed a menu to suit my tastes, chose delicious wines and decorated the cafe with beautiful flowers and lights.
So I celebrated my birthday with almost 40 friends and family - the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, Claire and the team produced endless delicious dishes and kept the wine flowing.
I couldn't recommend La Dinette more highly for a celebratory meal in a warm and relaxed setting.
Little gem of a French cafe in Muswell Hill. Entirely delectable food, especially the house salad. I never usually order salads when eating out - apart from at La Dinette. The home made cakes and coffees are also excellent. Don't expect comfy seats or amazing mood lighting - do expect excellent food and hot beverages in a child friendly setting. If you haven't tried it yet - do yourself a favour and give them a go.
Ordered the breakfast plate. Best plate of food I’ve had in Muswell Hill. Beautiful, delicious, and nourishing. Very cute shop, nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Highly recommend. Update: tried the quiche of the day. Heavenly light and flavorful! The salad it comes with is a good size and also very tasty.

Every single item in the menu is delicious!
The brownies are amazingly good! Just the right balance between dark chocolate, chewiness and sprinkles of sea salt on top.
The croque Monsieur is by far the best I've had.
Totally recommend it!
Amazing coffee shop flat white was nice and kindly served by the staff. Cakes was amazing we had a financier and a Canellé both was fresh and yummy!!!
Friendly for kids!!! Will definitely go back to try their savoury food.
It is the best pain au chocolat in Muswell Hill for sure! Second favourite are madeleines which are baked by the cafe. Also bought a few lovely cards made by local artists as well as strappy top to chill at the weekend. Friendly atmosphere and feeling of locality of this cafe has been created by Claire and her colleague. Thank you for doing such an excellent work and keeping all of us in sane.
The best Coffee in Muswell Hill and maybe North London. The croissants taste like what you get from a good French boulangerie, my favourite morning treat is the canele. Tuna melt discovered this morning was delicious. Claire and her staff have done a really good job at building this cafe up and providing locals with some really good food, plus a nice atmosphere.
