Breakfast
Buvette brings its French café concept — first known from New York and Paris — to the covered courtyard of Neal's Yard in Covent Garden, pairing a compact bistro menu with a lively, music-filled atmosphere. Reviewers describe it as a recent discovery rather than an established institution, which fits its notably high hidden-gem score relative to a modest review count of just over 170. Despite the smaller footprint, its 4.7 rating suggests consistently strong experiences for those who find it. It's well suited to a relaxed brunch away from the more crowded main thoroughfares of Covent Garden.

What people say
"We brought our family of five to this amazing French cafe on our trip to London. The food was amazing, they were so good with our picky kids and most important was our server Jay! He was so kind, had perfect recommendations and constantly checked on us to ensure our experience was nothing less than perfect! Thank you Buvette and Jay!"
