  Undoubtedly the best venue of its type in the area. Decor is lived-in/avant-garde chic, notably white floors. Has spacious terrazza and occasional indoor wildlife. Wine served from 10am.

  Really small, quiet, really cool with a bar made of books, nice friendly posh sounding staff and scrabble tiles on the toilet floor. Food is good and not too expensive, lots of good stuff to drink. Kind of a like a library would be if it was a bar.

  La Petit Auberge

  This place does everything it can to make you feel like you're really in a genuine French bistro - red check tablecloths, frogs legs and snails on the menu, pictures of ze Eiffel Tower (which I recognised from Ikea) and charmingly accented staff. Despite this blatant appeal to naff stereotypes, it actually sort of works. OK, I've never been to a restaurant that was this French-looking in actual France, but the food was genuinely great, and affordable, and the waiters were nice, and they didn't make a fuss about us turning up really late on Friday night or ordering tap water (as well as wine, of course!). In many ways, better than an actual French bistro.
