L'ETO Brompton Road

Part bakery, part cake shop, part brunch spot, L'ETO wears several hats at once on Brompton Road, pairing a sweet-led spread of cakes and baked goods with its breakfast and brunch menu. The hours are remarkably generous — 9am to 11pm, seven days a week — so it works as well for a late-evening slice as a mid-morning treat, with outdoor seating for the brighter days. It sits firmly at the premium end of the scale, but a 4.3 rating from more than 2,300 reviews suggests plenty of people think it earns it.
