Contemporary
Lip Cafe is cool, laid-back and full of surprises. Little toys, artwork and retro-inspired furniture give this small cafe on an off-Broadway strip a cheerful atmosphere. The creative menu has an eco-friendly bent. Breakfast might be free-range eggs with Moroccan beans and chorizo or corn fritters and chipotle sauce. Organic Dench sourdough adds crunch to a grilled chicken sandwich with bitey house-made beetroot relish. A rear room leads to a courtyard, where staff may be seen barbecuing pork for sandwiches. Gluten-free brownies are a wickedly rich treat - even richer when eaten with ice-cream and toffee sauce.
