They Look As Good As They Taste…
In an age of Instagram, what it looks like is as important as what it tastes like! As much as I love my food, I am guilty of secretly loving a place for looking beautiful as well and I know I’m not the only one. Today I wanted to share with you some of Londons most “instagrammable” cafes. If Instagram isn’t your game though, this list is just five of the prettiest cafes in London that are just worth a visit! Whether it’s for the gram, a day out, a dose of inspiration or just a damn good cup of coffee, these five places will not fail you!
Peggy Porschen
The lines are long and the place is small but Peggy Porschen is worth the wait. Not only is the entrance to this little cafe famous (you would have to be living under a rock to not have seen this on your feed at some point) but the cupcakes are so incredibly yummy! My favourite is the strawberries and champagne cupcake. If I were to ever break my sugar rule, this would be one of the things I would do it for! Plus I love when something tastes as good as it grams!
Elan Cafe Knightsbridge
The latest spot to hit London is Elan cafe Knightsbridge. Although Elan has it’s original branch in Mayfair, it’s latest Knightsbridge opening is one of the prettiest places I’ve ever been. If you’re wondering where the famous cafe with the flower wall is, you’ve just found it. Complete with pink croissants, blue latte’s and overall, just some yummy food, Elan is another gorgeous spot that makes it feel like it’s springtime in London all year round. Plus, anywhere with fun neon signs is great in my book!
The Ivy Chelsea Garden
The Ivy is always a must visit, whether you go to their Tower Bridge restaurant, the Marylebone cafe, or the original in Chelsea. Regardless of whether they have their famous flower door on display or not, it’s a gorgeous spot to sit and enjoy your coffee or a glass of wine. I would highly recommend visiting when the weather is warmer! That’s when it really shines!
Dalloway Terrace
What I love about Dalloway terrace is that it changes with the seasons. During the winter it’s a glorious winter wonderland, in the spring, it’s a stunning garden. Regardless of when you go you can’t resist the gorgeous striped cups and the warm interiors. It makes you want to sit there all day long! Plus, the food is super yummy! Although I’m not an avocado on toast kind of girl (shock and horror, I don’t like avocado), I hear it’s pretty good!
Sketch
Sketch is an incredibly famous London spot for tea, drinks, dinner and everything else. Each room has something new to offer, even the bathrooms. If you can manage a tea here, it’s well worth it, but otherwise I suggest just dropping in for a drink! Be sure to take a round of their famous pink tea room and stop by the futuristic bathroom! You won’t be sorry!
Of course, there are so many more gorgeous spots in London. Two that I would also highly recommend would be NAC (stands for North Audley Canteen) for their amazing food and adorable interiors, and Aubaine Selfridges because it’s just stunning with the hanging lavender and lilac vibes.
