"Managing to provide true French atmosphere just over the road from Gare du Nord deserves credit. Excellent, friendly, attentive and fast service with good selection of dishes which looked good and were much better than one would expect at such a location. Set menu is excellent value and crème brule was big enough for two. Recommended!"

"Very nice a unique place to relax whilst waiting for a train, the outside area is nice and inside is a good place to chill. Beer, champagne selection is nice and reasonably priced"
"Wonderful breakfast londonian. Came here three times including once for crepes. Delicious. Orange juice was somehow just amazing. The waiters were great. With my 12 words of French and his 12 words of English it worked. Ambiance and character with locals filing in just for a cup of coffee on the way to catch their train across the street."
