So after gaming and some pub grub last sunday going out on the Game On Exhbition in the Frag Dolls/DS group outing , we stumbled upon a really cool little cafe whilst trying to find a Starbucks to accomodate all 15 of us. Walking from South Kensignton to Earls Court in our failed search, we finally found a little cafe called Troubadour (www.Troubadour.co.uk), 265 Old Brompton Road, SW5 9JA.

I have gotta say the decor is fantastic! Perfect for romantic couple/small groups get together with its creaky wooden floors, charming ornaments and candle lit surroundings (really impressed by its authentic creaking door!). We ended up getting our own little area although the table configuration was more suited for couples and really small groups, there was probably larger tables taken up around the place but we couldnt complain having our booth. Looking around it reminded me of cafe's you would find in the countryside over the continent somehow. Good stuff!

The menu seemed ok but what grabbed our attention was the B.O.G.O.F (buy one get one free) deals till 7.30pm on cocktails, so Dot and I started off the fashion by buying a couple. The quality was ok, nothing to write home about but at the price we really couldnt complain (Singapore Sling, yummy!). A peculair feature of such a cafe is the uni-sex type toilets (someone's been watching Ally Mcbeal I thinks...) and going by others trying the food menu, the deserts got a high thumbs up!

Anyways, if you ever swinging by Earls Court or in the area. Check it out!
