Coco Momo gives a better impression from its exterior in comparison to its interior. It looks like a nice place but when we entered, it felt very untidy and messy.

There was an area of comfy seating at one end and at the other, there was a big bar area. The remaining area was made up of wooden tables and chairs.

We found the staff to be quite rude and impolite at Coco Momo. Everytime we asked one of the staff a question, it felt like we were bothering him. The service was ok, but nothing special.

Coco Momo has a limited menu on Sundays, which is when we were dining here. It is a shame that they don’t serve the bar menu on a Sunday afternoon as there were quite a few items that would have been nice to have. These included wraps and nachos.

I ended up having the broccoli soup. It was quite a creamy soup and it made a nice meal with the few slices of granary bread that it came with.

For drinks, Coco Momo does juices and smoothies. The guava and mango smoothie was really good. The taste of the two fruits definitely came through and it was a fairly refreshing drink!

Coco Momo definitely disappointed us especially with its staff and the general ambiance of the place.

Nestled in the heart of Soho is this lovely cake shop! Mrs Morengo’s is a small cafe made up of only a few white tables and pink cushioned high stools! There are quite a lot of cakes, some displayed in the window, others along the side shelf and the rest by the main counter.

Most of the cakes were displayed uncovered and there were only about three cakes that were protected by the cake covers. As we’re not fans of uncovered food, this really did limit our choice. This was a shame as all of the cakes looked delicious and had tempting names!

For our tea and cake afternoon, we had the lemon and pistachio cake, and the chocolate and pecan brownie. The square portions of the cakes were of a good size!

The lemon and pistachio cake was tangy and really moist. It was topped with a layer of chopped pistachios in a lemony sauce. The combination worked well!

I didn’t try the chocolate and pecan brownie. But just from looking at it, it looked really rich and would be a good choice for someone that loves chocolate! It was topped with a few pecan halves!

We had the Early Grey tea to share. This was served in a small metal teapot and there was enough for a couple of cups each.

The staff at Mrs Morengo’s were friendly and relaxed! They gave good service and didn’t rush us, even though it was coming close to closing time!

Mrs Morengo’s is a nice cake shop to go to if you are looking for a quality sweet treat! It’s a shame that the seating is quite limited.

Megan’s Deli is the perfect place for a Sunday brunch! This café is small and cute and has small seating areas over a couple of floors. What makes this café special is if you head down the steep stairs, it opens out into a little outdoor garden area.

Here it feels like you have been transported into some sort of country house garden. The tables are dressed with green chequered tablecloths and there are bowls of fresh fruit on the tables. If you go a little earlier in the afternoon, then your luck should be in to catch some of the sunshine in this walled garden area.

There are a range of items and drinks for the Sunday brunch.  A great way to start off is with the freshly squeezed orange juice. It’s of a good size and very refreshing. The scrambled eggs were cooked to perfection and served with some hearty thick granary bread. A filling meal for a lazy Sunday and there were no complaints at all with this brunch!

Megan’s Deli also serve salads and quiches. These seemed to be on a self service basis from the counter inside. It all looked fresh but I would have preferred it if the food had been covered in a counter fridge and also if it was served by the staff.

The staff were good, friendly and relaxed. They did not bother us or rush to take our order. But it was easy to get their attention when we were ready to order!

Megan’s Deli is definitely one of my top places to go to for brunch and I’m sure that I will be returning for another lazy Sunday brunch!
