Clover

A cream puff generously filled with rich custard is a good place to start at Clover. Visitors have praised the pairing of lightly sweetened cream and a soft pastry shell, while others have been struck by the ample, thick custard filling. Some also favour a sturdier shell. For cake, try the Gâteau Fraise, with strawberries and lightly sweetened fresh cream between moist sponge layers, or the Mont Blanc, where chestnuts and liqueur bring out the flavour of the marron-glacé-style chestnuts inside.

The seasonal tart pairs crisp pastry with Clover’s signature custard, topped with fruit that changes with the seasons. One customer bought a fig tart alongside a cream puff and liked the cookie-like pastry and the thin layer of chocolate tucked between its layers. The fruit selection varies, so checking which tart is available that day is part of the appeal.

For something baked to take away, options include a cake that combines the flavour of yuzu with the richness of honey, and a lemon cake balancing citrus tartness with white chocolate sweetness. For a crisp bite, the Florentine pairs caramelised almonds and walnuts; the financier, made with cultured butter, is known for its almond aroma and buttery richness.

There is no dine-in service, but takeaway and collection at the shopfront are available. Clover is closed on Sundays and open Monday to Saturday from 10:30 to 18:30.
