The Café
Pose, Vogue.
As you go further into the café, the first thing that catches your eye is the luxurious sofas draped in plush red velvet, inviting you to sink in and unwind. The interior design follows a sophisticated red and pink theme, with accents of gold adding a touch of glamour to the space. The magazine layout on the tables reflects the cafe's chic ambiance, with glossy pages adorned with vibrant photographs and stylish designs, enticing you to flip through and immerse yourself in the world of fashion and culture. It is Vogue after all.
Stepping Outside
Once you step outside the garden, you are met with a black-and-white interior with a warm environment. As it was quiet, we got to sit anywhere in the garden space and were given a menu with lots of options including lunch, dinner and light bites. I ordered a soya latte and every sip of your latte is a moment to savour. As you take your first sip, you're greeted by the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee, perfectly complemented by the creamy foam on top. The latte is served in an elegant double-glazed glass, with chocolate sprinkles on top. Pair your latte with a colourful macaroon, delicately crafted with a crisp shell and a soft, flavourful filling. Each bite is a burst of sweetness, with flavours ranging from classic pistachio and strawberry. The macaroon's vibrant hues add a pop of colour to your plate, creating a feast for both the eyes and the palate.

Next, we indulged in a delectable tart, bursting with flavour and freshness. Whether you choose a tangy lemon tart or fruit tart, each bite is a symphony of textures and tastes. The tart's buttery crust provides the perfect contrast to the creamy filling, leaving you craving more with every bite. To complete your experience, sip on a soothing cup of tea served in an elegant teapot with delicate china cups. Whether you prefer a fragrant herbal blend or a classic black tea, the tea menu at Vogue Café offers a selection of premium teas to suit every taste.

This visit marks my final one to the café, as it has since closed its doors. Nonetheless, the experience truly left a lasting impression. It was more than just a place to grab a drink; it embodied a welcoming atmosphere where one could effortlessly spend time with friends, regardless of the hour. Its cosy ambience, vibrant energy, and overall comfort made it a standout destination for leisurely gatherings.
