Izett Street’s Reverie Cafe puts classical French pastry craft front and centre with scratch-baked viennoiserie and polished cafe fare. Morning regulars crowd the counter for almond croissants and the open pastry kitchen's petit gâteaux—notably the chocolate hazelnut crunch and glazed passion-brownie slices. Breakfast holds its own with savoury plates like chilli scrambled eggs and avocado toast, while espresso comes poured with house-made chocolate topping on sweet drinks. Afternoon gatherings lean into tiered high teas layered with warm scones, salmon sliders, and petit fours.
