Café society on Swains Lane is ruled by Kalendar, the friendliest of the street’s nosh shops and also the most popular: punters will hover expectantly if you’re lucky enough to grab a sunny terrace table in the warmer months. Breakfast here is a joy, from artful eggs Benedict and grease-free variations on the full English to chunky cups of coffee made with beans from the Monmouth Coffee Company. Sandwiches are also expertly made – try the grilled halloumi with grated carrot and crunchy lettuce – and the deli counter serves a reliably delicious range of delights, from artisanal cheeses to tempting stacks of cakes bought in from Konditor and Cook.
