Mo Tea Room

If you fancy the fittings at Momo’s lil’ bro’ Mô Tea Room, buy them. Antique Maghrebi lanterns, tea sets, glassware & even the music are for sale. This gem tucked off Regent Street is inspired by the city of Marrakech. Ali Baba & Marrakech O’ Marrakech (Bacardi, mint & lemon juice charged with bubbly) head a short cocktail list that’s also strong on mocktails. Otherwise, Moroccan & Lebanese wines, such as a delicious Moscatel, infiltrate a largely French selection. No exotic tearoom would be complete without melon- or strawberry-flavoured sheesha, smoked from a theatrical ‘nargile’. Puffing on the heated terrace, with its jumble of pouffes & low tables, is more fun than it might sound – even in midwinter.
