Earthly Pleasures Cafe/Bar and Event Venue
Grab a coffee and a slice of cake at Earthly Pleasures. The garden seating is perfect for settling in early, and the vegan menu is extensive if that is your preference. It is open until 17:30, so you have time to linger before the light changes.
16:32
Walk to The Cameo. This art deco cinema is the anchor for the evening. Even if you are not catching a film, the building itself is worth a look. Find a spot in the outdoor area or near the entrance where you can face west.
17:17
Watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the WNW, casting a warm glow on the cinema facade. This is the peak moment for the golden light described in the facts. Enjoy the quiet atmosphere as the day winds down.
17:47
End the night with dinner at India Gate. It is just a short walk away and offers a nice interior with vegan options. It stays open until 22:30, making it a relaxed choice for after the sunset.
Local tip
The golden light lasts from about 16:37 to 17:17 in July. Arriving at Earthly Pleasures early ensures you get a good table before the crowd comes for the sunset view.
