Two kitchens, one cafe

A Kemptown caff with a Brazilian heart.

On George Street, just off St James's Street, Figaro's does two things at once. The all-day English breakfast, cooked to order with free swaps. And the food of a Brazilian home kitchen: rice and slow-cooked beans, grilled meat, fried cassava. Order at the counter, grab a seat, and it comes to you.

The English side

Eight numbered breakfasts, from the classic bacon, egg, sausage, beans and toast to the full works with chips and hash brown. Two swaps are free, or build your own for £1.

  • All-day breakfasts
  • Baguettes & sandwiches
  • Jacket potatoes
  • Omelettes

The Brazilian side

The prato feito: rice, beans, chips and salad with your choice of grilled steak, roast pork or chicken. When they're on, mandioca frita and salada de maionese. Guaraná in the fridge.

Sweet things

Save room. Seriously.

Pancake stacks drowned in Nutella or maple syrup, brownies warm from the counter, and a cake of the day that regulars time their visit around.
