It has a small cafe feel but it thinks bigger than its floor space - there's a deliberate pan-mediterranean vibe. Italian writing on the walls, spanish music, the names of european capitals printed along the bar and a Lebanese manager.<br /><br />The coffee's fairly average, quite weak, and the cup's so wide there isn't much space left for liquid. There's free wifi if you spend more than £3 - annoying because most drinks are £2-£2.50. Great location half way down Baker Street - away from the fast food joints of the north, and the tourist-hell of Oxford Street to the south. <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5282/568/1600/segafredo2.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5282/568/200/segafredo2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Inside it's calm, away from the hassle of Baker Street, echoing the feel of nearby Marylebone High Street more than it's poorer neighbour.<br /><br /><i>Baker Street, NW1</i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28556740-114832495146112999?l=caffelattetrail.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>sasahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11768949840709111768noreply@blogger.com2
