From Citysearch

In Short
A cartoonish, red-haired woman and her pet cat are painted on a back wall, adding charm to this bright, sunny cafe situated on a main drag of pubs, boutiques and restaurants. Small red tables fill the one-room space, where diners chat over omelettes, frittatas, pancakes and kid's faves like french toast and granola parfait. Exposed brick, comfy tables and a fireplace tucked at the rear further lend to comfort.
