About

Le Bal Infernal pairs coffee and tea with shelves of used books that guests can read or borrow, and reviewers mention homemade vegan cakes and vegan hot chocolate. It’s a relaxed spot for laptop work or a simple lunch, with outdoor seating and a busier bar scene later in the day; lunch choices are limited, so come mainly for drinks, books, and a light bite.
