Filo (South Kensington)

Filo is a lovely little café that delivers on both pastries and coffee. The pecan Danish is perfectly flaky, just sweet enough, and goes brilliantly with a well-made mocha. The space is cosy and welcoming, with enough room to sit comfortably. Staff are genuinely warm and happy to recommend something if you’re not sure. The menu includes smoothies and light bites, all prepared fresh. Even during busy times, service stays smooth and attentive. The décor is simple but stylish, making the whole place feel well cared for. A great place for a break with something a bit different.
