Café St Germain

"A lazy Sunday morning favourite of mine. Varied menu, excellent coffee and a cosy atmosphere."

"Brilliant French cafe. You can buy fresh baggettes in the morning and a great breakfast. Nice atmosphere."

"A really lovely little cafe on top of the hill in Crystal Palace. Unfortunately the view across South London is a little bit marred by the bus station across the road, but don’t be put off, you can still sit outside sip a coffee, read the paper and watch the world go by and pretend you’re sat on the South Bank of the Seine!

Good coffee and some more ‘European’ variations on the menu as well as the classic cafe regulars."

"When France is all that you can think about, but a Eurostar ticket is slightly out of reach, there is always café St Germain.I am guessing that the café has not changed in the past twenty years but rather than hiding this, it relishes it in true French style. Big, warm and welcoming, relaxing and most importantly the drinks and snacks are delicious.Yes you may walk out the door onto a major road complete with a station of red double decker buses, but while inside the café pondering over coffee and pastries, you would not believe that you were anywhere this side of the channel."
