Delaunay

The West End


This immaculate spot channels the majesty of the grand cafes of Central Europe. Schnitzels, sausages and fish take pride of place on the menu, which is rounded out with Alsatian tarte flambée (thin-crust 'pizzas' with crème fraiche, onions and bacon lardons) and a rotating Tagesteller (dish of the day). The more relaxed Delaunay Counter is next door.
