About Cafe 19

A Piccadilly bakery-café that's earned a queue, so arriving early is the trick — regulars say get there at opening and you'll walk straight to a table instead of standing on the pavement with a pram. There's outdoor seating for warm days, buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, plus vegan options. Breakfast is the draw: the full English (happily swapped around if someone doesn't do mushrooms or black pudding), eggs benedict with properly runny yolks, and the apple and cinnamon French toast that arrives thick, fluffy and topped with ice cream — one parent found it not too sweet. Children go for the Bueno or Oreo pancakes and the milkshakes. Staff are attentive and relaxed with families. Two honest notes: a 10% service charge lands on the bill, and portions on some £14 bagels feel mean for the price.
