Cafe Diana


I’m not ashamed to say I’m quite loving the royal heritage-fest happening right now. From The King’s Speech to Christopher Kane’s ode to Princess Margaret on Acid to that wedding, it’s all about the aristocracy.

I’ve been going to Cafe Diana for decades now, an unassuming wee cafe in Baywater Road that serves up chicken tikka pitta bread sandwiches in church pew booths overlooked by dozens of framed photos of Princess Di. Frequented by curious tourists and Notting Hill locals alike, it’s a far tastier hangout than Starbucks or Pret down the road.
