Odette

Latin Quarter


Odette's ground-floor space sells choux (pastry puffs) with seasonal flavoured cream fillings, such as coffee, lemon, green tea, salted caramel, pistachio and forest berries (nine on offer at a time). Upstairs, its art deco tearoom plays 1920s music and serves choux along with tea, coffee and Champagne. The black-painted timber façade and a geranium-filled 1st-floor window box are charming.
