The Epitome of Cool
From the award-wining logo to the colourful interior, to the acid jazz that fills the café, Black Cat is as trendy as they come. Though cozy with only 30 seats, summertime patrons enjoy a quiet non-smoking patio located in the back garden, which seats about 16. The intimate, sultry setting makes Black Cat a perfect romantic locale.
Nouvelle Bistro Cuisine
Likewise, the dining experience at Black Cat is anything but conventional. The cafe specializes in French cuisine with a modern influence, thanks to the innovative talents of the head chef. Though small, the menu is extremely appetizing and features favourites like salmon, lamb and beef tenderloin. For a lighter meal, try one of the lovely fresh soups or a mixed greens salad with their signature dressing.
Desserts to Die For
Be sure to leave some room to enjoy the café’s luxurious cheese and dessert menu. From goat cheese to Spanish manchego, to Valdeon blue, Black Cat’s cheeses are all served with rich olive oil and delicious fresh herbs. The desserts are particularly succulent and include original creations like the inviting Amadei Chocolate Tour (hot chocolate, warm fondant and chocolate chip cookies), spiced pumpkin pie and the classic crème brûlée. Cap off your meal by indulging in the frequently changing wine list.
