The eye-catching exterior of the Antea-que Cafe is matched by the quirkiness of the interior – tables with patterned oilcloths, bottles of fresh flowers and a variety of painted chairs give a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere.
And the food matches up to expectations. Breakfast and brunch specialities attract many regular fans who come for their favourites picked from mini Irish breakfast, the 'club' (breakfast club sandwich), the veggie breakfast, or simply for eggs any which way – Benedict, Florentine, or Grande.
Lunch includes good homemade soup, quiches, lasagne and salads, or you can just opt for freshly baked scones served with jam and cream, pancakes with bacon or maple syrup and French toast, which are just a few the many delights on offer.
San Pasqual' sweets and pastries – baked by Yvette Eiffe, whose business merged with the café in 2018 - are a highlight, and Yvette's range of temptations includes macarons, tarts, cheesecakes and eclairs.
Delightful staff in pink flowery aprons are the icing on this quirky cake, ensuring plenty of repeat business.
