La Cave Restaurant Wine Bar - Southwark

La Cave is just to the side of Borough Market quirky place with indoor and outdoor seating. Decent food at decent prices. You can have snacky sharing platters or cooked food. My colleague had the burger and raved about it, gave it 9 out of 10. I had the sea bream which was nice but they were a bit heavy handed with the herb which overpowered the fish a bit. My other two colleagues had the baked salmon and they loved it.

Went there had to order drinks five times then had to order food three times ! everyyone was charming but no one took responsibility for instance lamb arrived as main course then spinach half an hour later and lamb dish finished when challenged staff was told hey man this happens ! , but couldnt understand why i said i wasnt paying for spinach ! It has so much potential but run by a bunch of chancer rich kids spoilt brats who seemed to be more working there for fun and getting drunk than serving people ! could be great but service sucks !

We were just about to go down the steps from London Bridge to Borough Market when we peered over the railings and spotted the secluded sunny terrace of La Cave below us. There was a very comfy looking sofa under a parasol with our name on it ! We only wanted a cappuccino but lingered for an hour as it was a fab quiet spot tucked away from the hub bub of London just a few feet above us . Friendly service, great coffee ... and if you looked up, a fab view of The Shard.

A nice cosy place very close to London Bridge. Fab amuse bouche. Goat s cheese salad at £6 is very reasonable, not mind blowing but good. Duck breast with stripes carrots was overcooked when I asked fo rose. Otherwise great service from Mathieu and Benjamin. Bit slow to start with from the kitchen but then it is better.

On that sunny Thursday, my wife and I were visiting Borough market and by 11am we decided to get a good coffee. We found that place and its wonderful terrace exposed in the sun. While we were enjoying our coffee and chatting, hanger starter to get us. Shall we move? Yes probably, we didn't come to the UK to eat french food.... Actually, when our neighbours received their plates, we changed our minds because it seemed gorgeous. Plus the staff and chill atmosphere were very pleasant. So we decided to eat there and chose the 2-courses lunch menu. Really nice and fresh food, good bottle of wine, friendly staff, we were at the top. But arrived the moment when you need to ask the bill... I was quite afraid to have a bad surprise. It was not cheap, but i would have expected the bill to be far higher given what we received. We had trusted the waiter for the wine selection and he picked us a reasonable bottle in terms of price but it was perfect given what we had ordered. Those guys know their job. I would definitely go back there next time I visit London and recommend that place to my friends.
