Located just around the corner from High Street in trendy Mercer Road, Le Petite Prince's lunch time clientele seemed to include a fair representation of the vicinity's demographic, namely ...shall we say....ladies on the mature side. Perhaps the Armadale-style young things who feature on the web-site were busy elsewhere on the weekday we were there? Perhaps even out earning a living? Anyway, the patrons, whoever they may be, are clearly attracted to the atmosphere of the venue, and I can see their point - the morning sun streaming in, and, being on the side street, not too much traffic outside. Possibly the mention in the Sunday Age a couple of weeks ago did no harm, either?
The service was fine, and there's a pleasant area on the wide footpath under the oak trees where it's nice to sit in the morning sun (although we sat inside). I'm no coffee expert, but it seemed satisfactory, except that it wasn't quite as hot as requested.
