Le Delice

There's a touch of Paris about this Lewisham café — a French-inspired coffee shop and pâtisserie that has been part of the neighbourhood since 2013. The homemade cakes are the star turn, doors open at 6am daily, and with outdoor seating and a warm welcome for dogs, it's as good for a quick morning coffee as a weekend treat. You'll find Le Délice on Ladywell Road, near the site of the old Lady Well, with a sister shop on Hither Green Lane in a building that was once a cinema.
