Amina served us food with a big smile😊 and kindness. The food was fresh and delicious😋. We felt very comfortable, peaceful environment. Linda's final touche was fantastic.

Absolutely love this place. My family and I visit frequently for weekend brunch. Coffee is amazing and also love their fresh smoothies. A lot of options to choose from, especially love the french toast and also love their cream cakes😋! They have a fantastic bakery selection too for fresh breads. Food is high quality and feels healthy.

I have also ordered cakes from here for special occasions and everyone loves the cakes. We recently tried the afternoon tea and it was yummy, very generous portions too.

We love the outdoor option for seating, makes it feel like we are abroad 😎.

I had brought a fresh cream gateaux today for the first time from here and it was terrible. There was liquid dripping from the base of the cake which was something very weird from the cake. Once it was cut open in front of the family and friends, it was soggy and sponge had collapsed from soaking up all the liquid if the syrup coated whole fruits that was inside. It was embarrassing, and was thrown in the bin. Really not worth the £36 that I had paid.
I am not sure those working there know what was inside the cake. If they did, this kind of cake was certainly not made fresh and had been sitting there for a few day at least. This kind of cake cannot be shelved for more than 6 hours or if it was frozen, defrosting it for sale during the day is also not right. I know I won't get a response or a refund for this. Just be aware for those who will choose to buy a cake from there in the future. I certainly will not.

Not great.
Jacket potato was way too mushy.
Some orders were forgotten about entirely.
Service was OK.
Think there are better cafés in and around Wanstead.

I'd just suggest focusing the menu as it's far too generic.

Not nice at all. The chicken i bought was undercooked to the point it was hard and chewy. The jacket potato had no taste. The baked beans also had no taste. There were little fruit flies flying around. The french toast was terrible. The cutlery was dirty. I would never go there again.

It was on my list to visit Belgique before covid, but then it never happened. Finally, today I got to visit with a friend, and I absolutely loved the place, staff’s cordial, patient and friendly service with no rush and hush to shoo us out as soon as we finish eating, it holds much bigger space than it seems from front.
Preparations were quite nice and fresh. I really enjoyed their patisserie and chamomile tea.
I even got some patisserie as take away for my kids and really enjoyed Hazelnut eclairs, Orange blossom.

Lovely space, lovely preps and very cordial staff..its first but definitely not last. I will visit again and again.

Just visited for breakfast, food was okay. The cappuccino had a burnt taste, when this was brought up with the staff they weren’t willing to take on the feedback and was just plain rude. We could also not drink the Cortado as it was more milk than coffee even with a double shot! Staff was not willing to accept responsibility - won’t be coming back.

Friendly people but very slow and inattentive service. Getting anything at all takes up to 30 minutes. Plates were not cleared for some time. Menu is dated with not many healthy options, some things were unavailable and the ice cream was not high quality. We could see they were trying but for the prices felt they could do a lot better. If you want to hang out for hours and hours undisturbed it’s great: if you have anywhere to be after your meal, give it a miss.
