After such a busy Christmas period, I wanted to have some proper mum and daughter time. However, we still had to get through the first week of term back at school, which made me feel like zombie between doing the school run and then going to work; I felt like I needed an energy pack after that. I want to enhance my daughters childhood memories and give her the opportunity to experience new things and see what she can achieve. So Saturday came around and madam picked out her own outfit, I had kept where we were going a surprise and only hinted that there were unicorns and that they were pink. We made the short walk - well she made me run so we wouldn’t miss our train - to the station. Then as we walked up the stairs at Knightsbridge station (Brompton Court Exit), you could see the Elan Cafe (Hans Crescent Branch) straight away. When we got there we were greeted by a lovely lady, I wish I had her name, she was great and instantly saw my daughter staring in awe of the unicorns. She asked if she wanted to climb up and take a picture with them, then told she told me she would give us her best table and once we were seated I knew this fact was true: we were surrounded by love hearts. Elan Cafe lives up to the reputation of being one of the most "instagramable" places to go. Now I want to give some praise to the cafe as the day before I went, I looked at the reviews online and there were some negativity which I would say was not fair. The staff that served us downstairs were great and efficient, the food and cakes were delicious. I would suggest arriving at time that is less busy otherwise there will be a queue, as you cannot book in advance. We got there just before lunchtime and there were no issues. I would say Elan Cafe is a must go to.
P.S trust me she asked to pictures of her I do not make her.
