    Had a lovely all day brunch at the black penny Sloan square. Food was lovely, I had a lovely coconut latte was delicious and creamy. Service from the staff was absolutely fantastic. I think this place is so cute and lovely now the weather is getting better as there are places to sit outside. However we chose to sit indoors . I went on a week day at 12.30 So was a busy time yet it still didn't seem like it was crowded.

    Absolutely loved our visit to Charlotte’s Cloud for breakfast. There was a buzz about the place and a constant stream of customers for take away and eat in orders. My husband was delighted with his eggs Benedict, he said it was delicious and my granola bowl with fruit was gorgeous. The coffee was fab too. I just wished we had more time to rețurn before going back home to sample more but we will just have to make sure we call the next time we are in London.
