This is one of my (many) favourite West End local cafes. They do a great weekend breakfast. This place is retro, quirky and very fun and relaxing.

This place is a bit of an institution as far as West End goes. The establsihment is full of character and charm. I can't go past their amazing cake cabinet filled with numerous cheesecakes and other delights. Of course, they do serve savoury food here for those of us without a sweet tooth.

Drinks & Nightlife

Rumpus Room really is where you'll find many of the true locals hanging out. By day it is a casual bar with both indoor and outdoor seating. By sundown the music starts pumping with DJs playing hip, hop and more on good old viynl until the wee small hours.
