Twentysix Café & Bistro

It seems 26 is a lucky number for the proprietors of Twentysix Café & Bistro - since 2010, this 26-seater café, located at number 26 Regent Street, has continued to grow in popularity. Although, with a menu like Twentysix's, no luck is needed, as patrons can't resist coming back for everything from warm buttery croissants and barista-made coffees, to classic French bistro fare. The croque madame, served on granary bread and topped with a perfectly poached egg, and the croque bleu made with Bleu de Bresse and caramelised pear were absolutely divine. The bowl of potage haricot-blanc saucisse was light yet richly flavoured with Toulouse sausage, smoked bacon and haricot beans. Stepping from the bustle of Teignmouth into this oasis of calm, filled with the aroma of sweet baked goods and the sound of jazz, will make you feel like you're dining on the French Riviera rather than the English one.
