"The space is so tranquil and conducive to unwind after a long hectic week with a soothing selection of music. The customer service is out of this world. We enjoyed their mimosas. Oh and they have this other cool chilli sauce, when we heard that they make it from scratch we decided on the spot to buy it to spice up our meals at home and to give us a sense of nostalgia. The cake of the day is to die for All this and more at a very affordable price. We can’t wait to return and enjoy the good food, drinks and service."

"It was my first time visiting the restaurant and I enjoyed being in that little corner, having time to myself. The food was delicious, the bread was a bit burnt, nonetheless I came out with a full happy stomach. I also love the fleece gestures for customers when it's cold."

"I went to Saint Germain today for brunch with the boyfriend. It’s a charming spot that serves great coffee. The portions are generous and the food was fresh. I had the croque madame which was rich, cheesy and delicious. My boyfriend had the poulet moutarde which was tasty (not sure I’d order that over some of the other options though). The pain perdu looked divine, with soft thick brioche and fresh fruit (i was in the mood for something savoury though). It’s quite a small space (classic French cafe) so it can feel a bit crowded."
