Saint Aymes

Draped in petals and dripping with delectable delights, Saint Aymes beckons with a siren call that could rival any celebrity chef’s kitchen antics. Nestled in the heart of Connaught Village, this spot isn’t just a café; it’s a full-blown edible adventure. Once upon a time, it was merely a humble chocolate enterprise, but then someone had the brilliant idea to bedazzle those chocolates with 24-carat gold. Talk about turning cocoa into cashmere! Fast forward to today, and Saint Aymes is the undisputed ruler of London’s culinary castle, crowned “Most Beautiful Café” with all the pomp and circumstance you’d expect. Step inside and prepare to have your senses assaulted in the most delightful way possible. The décor? Extravagant doesn’t even begin to cover it. It’s like Marie Antoinette threw a party, and everyone’s invited, except instead of heads rolling, it’s just jaw-dropping awe at the opulence. But let’s talk about the real star of the show: the menu. It’s not just food; it’s edible art. Unicorn lattes? Rainbow cakes? Yes, please! Each bite is not only a taste sensation but also an Instagram-worthy masterpiece. And if you’re feeling extra fancy (or just want to pretend you’re a member of the royal family for a day), indulge in one of their edible gold creations. It’s like eating a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, except instead of a leprechaun, you have a barista with a heart of gold. So, if you’re ready to elevate your taste buds and your social media game, Saint Aymes is your golden ticket to gastronomic extravagance. 59 Connaught Street, London 0780 207 998 www.saintaymes.com
