A French cafe in the Roman and Williams Guild - a high end design center in Soho. Morning menu features croissants, eggs, and small breakfast items while the all-day menu offers buckwheat crepes, salads, and larger plates. On the more expensive side but the space is immaculate (and you can buy the tableware!).
