Sable d'Or

Pros: excellent decor; good customer service; comfortable seating; the chicken and beef are halal (as I was told); good vegetarian options.
Cons: the food wasn't great - the beef patty had a bitter burnt taste to it; the prices were unexpectedly high.

Lovely food served here. The Sunday early morning waitresses are particularly good. They pay attention to customers and are very friendly. One even remembers our orders each week! The food is on the pricey side but average price for the area. Clean and tasty. Definitely one to try

Slightly expensive, but very good place. The staff is very friendly, and the food looks amazing. The place is relaxing and very well decorated, definitely in line with the trandy Crouch End.

I wouldn't come here for a quick bite, but this place is amazing for having a nice talk with a friend or partner.

Must.

Stopped in here for brunch and really enjoyed the food and the rustic aesthetic.

Some really interesting combinations as well as some classics. Food was delicious and the service was prompt and friendly.

You do have to order at the till but this does give you a chance to browse the options.

Lovely atmosphere. Amazing coffee and Patisserie selection

The shop is really well located at the village center of Crouch end. They offer I wide range pastry and sandwiches. It’s full of well decorated little cakes, which taste delicious. The interior itself is clean and well kept. Prices are average and u can choose from a big selection of drinks and smoothies to come along with your food.

Place looked nice on the outside, walked in without looking at reviews.

We ordered:
- Mozzarella sandwhich; was really tasty, was surprised how light and crunchy the bread was.

- Cinnamon role; so soft and tasty one of the best ones we've had

- Apple crumble; loved how the crumble melted in my mouth! It was the right amount of firm vs crumbly and was a little moist. Would order again

- Spinach feta crumble; texture was good but lacked a little taste

We were served by Kaleb, felt super comfortable with him! He was friendly and patient with our orders! Thanks Kaleb. (Apologies if I spelt your name wrong)

It was a little pricey but not so different from many other cafes. Would definitely come again.

Not a great experience, especially when considering how much they feel their experience is worth (pricing). We arrived and asked if dogs were welcome and were advised they were we then ordered two sausage rolls, a cappuccino and a mocha £20. Our sausage rolls arrived very quickly and the coffees ….just never arrived; I have never had this experience before - food arriving before drinks! After waiting patiently and finishing the rolls, the server arrived with coffees for someone who had literally sat down a few mins before, but she looked over to us, so we thought she had recognised the oversight….waited…she had not. In the end I went up and addressed the server explaining politely that the drinks never arrived. She said nothing and just pointed at a girl at the coffee station. There were two drinks there and I asked if this was our cappuccino and mocha she said yes. I offered to take them over to our table as I was going that way anyhow (trying to have a laugh with her) and she then became rude “I will bring it over in a minute (we had already waited 15mins!) . When it eventually arrived, my wife pointed out that she had ordered a cappuccino and not a latte ; the girl tutted and took the latte away and returned almost immediately with the same latte that she had taken away she had sprinkled a bit of chocolate over the top of it and then blatantly lied saying she had picked up the wrong one. We were quite surprised by the general attitude we received here ( was Boxing Day too! Merry Christmas!) to be fair it was the barista who destroyed the experience. Being that they charge as if they are a cut above the other cafes around here, I would suggest a review of staff and rectify any grudges they have or whether perhaps they are no longer enjoying their work. Also an apology for the delays and mistakes; and a genuine rectification would have been the reasonable reaction, costs nothing but would have saved them a poor review and maybe even landed them with a more positive one. I won’t be back….although we did have a good laugh about it on our way home; so thanks for that :)
