Both have a love for good food, good wine and good conversation by the River Cam.

Serving great coffee, famous toasties, brunch, lunch and through to cocktails and small plates in the evening. We have a daily specials board and cake and sweet treats menu, all supplied from a local bakery.

BOOK

Café de Foy,Palaise Royal

A word on a Café de Foy, that once stood in the Palais Royal, Paris.

​

"On July 12, 1789, Camille Desmoulins,

standing on a table in the Café de Foy,

a sword in one hand, a pistol in the other,

haranguing a huge crowd, a green leaf in his hat, calling the bourgeois from Paris to arms, distributing green leaves to them as a sign of rallying, gave the signal for the insurrection which went

from there to finish the next day

with the taking of the Bastille." 

Whilst there's no relation between the two, what we do share is a love for coffee, art and a good gossip​ (political or not).
