It’s a lobby cafe, made seriously cool. Since 2013, PCP has served specialty coffee and consistently delicious brunch fare within the light-filled ground floor of the former Paramount Studios headquarters. Menu staples such as fried chicken waffles – coated in a gravy of salty-sweet maple bacon – have stood the test of time, while seasonal newcomers including yuzu shokupan French toast keep things fresh.

Good to know: The specialty coffee, from Seven Seeds, is great, but you can also get matey with a strawberry yuzu spritz from CBD bar PS40.
