Nana Cafe

Exceptional Service and Warm Atmosphere Shine!

Nestled in the energetic hustle and bustle of Covent Garden, this restaurant offers an enticing beacon for those swarming London’s iconic district. My recent visit here was marked by a dichotomy that only the heart of a city can masterfully compile: moments of sheer delight framed in culinary excellence mixed with fleeting instances of dismay, mostly attributed to the exponential tourist prices one faintly grumbles about but daringly succumbs to when perched in the thick of it all. My introduction to the place came through their delectable halloumi and courgette burger, the best I've tasted yet, leaving a flavor impression as powerful as the generous 15 percent service charge appended to my bill.

What lingers on your palate as strongly as any aftertaste, however, is the testament to service by some remarkably perceptive staff. Shout-outs are due to the likes of Sanjana and Kaan whose hospitable spirits were matched only by their acute honesty, providing thoughtful insight into menu perplexities while ensuring every mealtime moment bore the character of companionable conversation. Sensations of warmth and cheer consistently occupied the atmosphere, partially due to resilient heat lamps warming presses of outdoor drinkers shielded by February winds, and Russell, whose management skills left no plaudit unearned. This haven remains a frequently loved gamble of luxe venue versus heart-cringing check, yet resolutely wins hearts when bosses like Russell grace the charge—and if dining here invokes a singular London tradition, then it must be their supreme knack for persuasive charm amid quotidian critiques. — Clarissa Cuisinier
