Mimi's Kitchen

The 2012 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).

This review is taken from the current (2012) edition.

Mimi’s Kitchen is a popular Charing Cross spot for breakfast, lunches and takeaways for office workers, students and shoppers alike. Named after Scots-Italian owner Franca Collins’s grandmother – plus her dog and daughter too – it’s spacious, bright and airy, and has undergone a spruce-up recently to bring the look more in line with imminent plans to open a few evenings a week offering more of a bistro menu including the likes of pizzas and risottos. During the day, breakfast options range from fry-ups and rolls to bacon and egg bagels and porridge. For lunch, there’s an extensive selection panini, bagels, wraps, salads and omelettes all freshly prepared at the counter, though the menu may extend to main course-style specials such as a lamb burger with fries. Mimi’s is licensed, so it’s good for a lazy lunch with a cheeky glass of wine or beer, and well set for offering evening dining. [Not recently visited.]

This cafe doesn't seem to be open on a Sunday anymore (if it ever was)and the opening times on the door had Saturday scored out too. Shame - was keen to try it as it has had good reviews. Perhaps the List could contact to confirm and update the info on their page.
