Alex KellyJune 6, 2010Often cited as one of the best places for afternoon tea, but I'd only give 4/5. Best to book in advance on weekends. Staff friendly enough. Good boozing and brunch to be had.
Antonia BothnerNovember 12, 2014Sensational place for breakfast and people spotting. Best service in London
Faisal AlSalemDecember 29, 2014I really recommend you to have blueberry pancakes ... They are simply amazing
Deniz SezerMarch 5, 2014very nice place! in order to get nicer tables do not forget to make reservations
Jeff WooApril 20, 2012Amazing food including the best croque madam & eggs benedict of my brunch career.
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Anthony Demetre, chef of Arbutus, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Smoked salmon, scrambled eggs & toasted campagne. Read more
Gisele DreesbachFebruary 17, 2015I was really disappointed with the experience at this place. I had the afternoon tea, but I like the one at harrods much better
Alla AltuninaNovember 28, 2012Just don't miss this place for breakfast! The service is ok-ish, but the atmosphere is great!
EpicuriousAugust 23, 2010Even though this restaurant doesn't specialize in traditional British goods, there are still some classic dishes (like the treacle tart) that are to die for.
Joe TaylorOctober 12, 2012Classic breakfast place. Excellent food and good coffee. Very, very busy and tightly packed - wakes you up.
Peeyapat RMay 28, 2013just a reminder, egg florentine is with spinach, Arlington is with salmon/ Croque Monsier doesnt have egg while Madame does ;)
Sean HowellJune 10, 2018Just about every place on the street has a better breakfast. Beautiful space but pretty basic
Johan DKNovember 3, 2012Start the day in this sweeping, sumptuous space on Piccadilly, styled as a European grand café. Go for breakfast.
The food and service here is so good, if I could I'd eat here daily.
Niels Christian MøllerNovember 8, 2012Eggs Benedict and a Bloody Mary is my recommendation if you miss the breakfast
The old Wolesley car showroom on Piccadilly. Best tables are at the back of the room up the stairs. They're like little Salon Privés looking down on the restaurant and are great for people watching! Read more
DrewskiFebruary 19, 2017Can't comment on the restaurant overall, but the eggs benedict lived up to the hype.
Stephen O'ReillyJuly 1, 2013It's not cheap but it's great quality. Keep an eye out for famous faces.
Maco BalartJanuary 18, 2013Excellent food, service was a bit too slow, but overall a very good experience!!
