L'ETO

"The old fashioned chocolate cake from L’eto caffe is a four-tier thing of beauty with chocolate cream and raspberry between each cake layer, covered with chocolate glazing, raspberry crumble, and major Matilda energy. It’s moist, plus the fresh raspberry makes the richness less overwhelming and adds a nice fruity tang. Perfect for Roald Dahl fans who have been dreaming of that cake since they were six years-old. There’s plenty of seating in this flower-filled Soho spot, and aside from the moreish chocolate number, there’s a variety of cakes on display so you’ll always find something for everyone. " - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager

"One of our top choices when it comes to chocolate cake, L’eto is a west London mini-chain of aesthetically pleasing cafes with cakes that actually taste as good as they look. In keeping with its OTT cake display, the iced coffees arrive to your table looking like a science experiment. Picture a glass filled with black coffee ice cubes, another beaker-type glass filled with warm milk, and another little glass beaker filled with condensed milk. Pour it all over the ice cubes and you’ve got a very sweet iced coffee. The coffee feels secondary in this little experiment, so we’d say it’s perfect for someone who likes theatre with their drinks, rather than someone who “just can’t” before their morning caffeine fix. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
