Foliage Cafe

foliage does one thing consistently well: it takes coffee seriously without making you feel like a tourist in your own cup. clifton already draws a certain kind of person, the type who walks down regent street on a tuesday morning with nowhere urgent to be, and foliage fits that rhythm without trying to manufacture it. the regulars here aren't loyal out of habit. they're loyal because the standard holds. you can come back week after week and not feel let down, which is rarer than it should be for any independent in a city where new openings arrive constantly and quality can be patchy. the address, 17 regent street, is easy to walk past if you're not looking, but once you've found it once, you'll know exactly where you're going next time.
