| Cafe and cake shop on Theobald's Row, near Gray's Inn Fields, opened in early 2008. There's [[Bea's Of Bloomsbury, EC4M 9BX|another branch]] near [[Locale St Paul's|St Paul's]] in the [[Locale City|City]]. |
A new (Feb 2008) cafe and cake shop on Theobald's Row, near Gray's Inn Fields. Inside, there are a few tables and what looks like a kitchen area up the stairs at the back of the shop. The decor is stylishly dark, though service is friendly. |

They have a small selection of salads, quiches and the like, but the focus is clearly on the cakes. A range of spectacular creations is in the window, with all kinds of other ones arrayed along the counter inside -- not just cakes, but muffins, biscuits and a tempting cherry galette. |

Having sampled one of their cupcakes (at £1.70), I can confirm it is a perfect moistness, with a lemony cream topping which isn't overwhelmingly sweet (like the ones from Peyton & Byrne) but light and fluffy. The spinach and stilton quiche I had was also excellent. |

Having sampled one of their cupcakes (at £1.70 as of February 2008), [[Ewan]] can confirm it is a perfect moistness, with a lemony cream topping which isn't overwhelmingly sweet (like the ones from Peyton & Byrne) but light and fluffy. The spinach and stilton quiche I had was also excellent. Accessibility: A small step up to get in. Not sure if there are further steps inside. |
