Cafe Menta cuts a nouveau-retro look, with mint-green walls and contemporary bistro seating. Mezze-style sharing plates are the way to go for a taste of mini dishes such as sea-bass kebabs and aubergine halloumi rolls. It also rustles up tasty salads, soups, pasta and ciabattas (including vegan options) and a cooling homemade mint ice tea. Service sadly borders on indifferent.
