A friend and I paid a visit to the newly
established Monocle Cafe, it is a lovely cafe. Monocle is tucked away in the
well-heeled area of Marylebone. I loved it, I love the minimalism of the
cafe, and there is something fresh and innovative about the cafe. We walked in
and I was very impressed by the ambiance, clean-cut presentation of the
beverages and plump pastries, a selection from elder flower to a
crisp cappuccino. My friend loved the pastry we both agreed that
the pastry was simply divine they tasted "fresh and straight off the
tender hands of the pâtisserie".
We both loved
the environmentally friendly use of the glass bottles and the
neat little stickers "drink me chilled", glass bottles look better anyways. With each order you will get
a little square chocolate which is of course a lovely touch; on the back it has
a little information about the company, if you don't read the magazine. In
terms of music or "background noise" the monocle radio is playing
throughout which I think is great it gives the place a sense
of intelligence about the place.
I have a thing
for furniture it's just a little quirk of mine, I love the interior the
color scheme and the photo frames that covered the walls. It was all
quite dainty and ultimately perfect, you should go along and a
pay a visit especially if you are in the area do yourself the favour of grabbing a
coffee, picking up a plump pastry and a piece of chocolate. I will of course be going back to the
cafe of perfect pastries and crisp coffees.
