Astral Cafe in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We came across this place by chance and were amazed by the quality of the breakfast. Low prices and plenty of dishes. If you really want to have an English breakfast this is the right place for you. It is located a few steps further from the famous "Regency café" which we avoided due to queues and discovered that this excellent place is 10 steps further on. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try the "non-touristy" English breakfast, it's really worth it!

Amazing place! The food is delicious, with a great and friendly atmosphere.

Great prices, food is piping hot and plenty of it. Friendly staff and you can tell its great value buy the amount of London cab drivers that use it. Always at least 5 black cabs parked outside

Stumbled across this place by accident and went back every day I could for breakfast. The best breakfast we had anywhere in England, phenomenal value, big portions, easy atmosphere. It’s where the cabbies eat and they’re onto something.

Best local spot in Pimlico to grab a bite. Should not miss the English breakfast. Prepare yourself it's going to be a ride!

First time here, loved it. We all got a number 3. Everyone was super kind and we left with a warm heart and belly.

My favourite cafe in London the foods always spot on full of taxi drivers and locals far better than the regency cafe over the road

It's perfectly fine if you just want cheap and decent food on the run. Portions are large and hot.

THE FOOD HERE IS DELICIOUS AND THE BIG BREAKFAST HERE IS FANTASTIC VALUE FOR MONEY!! HOME MADE CAKES AS WELL!!

Small vintage restaurant where you can eat for not too much money, quick service with a variety of dishes. Ideal for a typical little stopover.

A real gem of a cafe, great food that is cheap, hard-working and polite staff with quick service. This is where the real londoners come to eat.

I discovered this cafe by chance, the Regency Cafe opposite was far too full for me, there was also a huge queue in front of the restaurant. The food can't be that good that I have to wait in line for hours. That's why I went to Astral Restaurant to try it out. And what can I say, it was absolutely worth it, the best thing that could have happened to me. It was also very busy here, but I managed to get a place. The staff was very competent and friendly despite all the work. The food tasted excellent, as did the coffee. I could charge my phone, read a newspaper and watch the goings-on outside through the window. A perfect early morning breakfast. Definitely recommended!!!

Just walked past wasn’t sure if it was the right place but lots of seating out the back FOOD was amazingly delicious ,super hot and quick 5 stars

Excellent,service good,staff friendly food tasty

WHERE ALL OF LONDON'S TAXI DRIVERS CAME TO EAT!! Funny story, I knew about this place when I was drunk after hanging out at a bar in Central London and fell asleep in the cab. Instead of driving me to my destination, the driver just drives straight to here and buys himself a dinner lol Very awesome place. It has a good selection of food so much so that a picky eater can have a feast here and it's incredibly cheap. The service is quite terrible but I don't care

If you like British breakfasts this is a good place to visit. Coffee is good as well. Food is delivered quickly.

Great food but egg and cappuccino were missing.

We went because of the reviews, and it does not disappoint, in the mornings it is full of local people. He served us the typical British breakfast, very abundant and at a very good price.

I went to find a greasy spoon when visiting London from Sydney and with the queues at The Regency I opted for Astral on the next corner. I was not disappointed! I chose my option of Full English/Fry up to come with tea. The mug was brought already brewed, milk in and the perfect colour. It was one of the best cups of tea I have ever had - better than I make it myself! The breakfast arrived moments later with 2 rounds of buttered toast cut into triangles. The service was quick and friendly. I highly recommend Astral for a greasy spoon experience!

Friendly staff, great price and good service! Good breakfast

Very busy, place is a bit small but the food is OK. Its reputation probably exceeds expectations

It says it was delivered but it hasn't been.

Fantastic service and friendly staff sandwiches 🥪 jolly good flavour bombs

Highly recommended! Good sized tasty breakfast with a cup of tea, can of coke and bottle of water came to a tenner, in this day and age that's superb value.

Great atmosphere, terrific fried breakfast!

English breakfast is quite good. The apple pie with cream is delicious. Coffee is good too. It's an old taxi driver's cafe. The atmosphere has that charm in it. Excellent service.

Best place around. always a perfect order. great food and value for money. Definitely recommend

Everything is touched by hands in front of your face, no gloves or clips being used. Dirty interior and hair in your food as a bonus. First and last

Can't rate food or service bcause the last two times I went in here I was completely ignored and walked out

If you are Latin and are used to warm treatment, eating in generous quantities and at reasonable prices for tight pockets, this place is for you. In addition, the preparation time for your food is fast.

Nice place for english breakfest

Excellent option for a British breakfast and much more, with many other options. Friendly staff! I'm vegetarian and there was a meat-free option!

Now that the Regency has become trendy, the Astral is the best for a full English

Fabulous food with a huge variety

One of the most complete and cheapest places for a strong coffee for a busy day. It's so worth it🥇

The delivery person was good and quick.

Go. 7-8 pounds for this. Tastes great and filling.

I walked past today en-route to the tube. I popped in and decided to stay for early lunch. Very quick service, extremely good value for money , brilliant all day breakfast ( number 4 no black pudding) I really enjoyed it and will 100% go there next time I’m in the area .

A very local, delicious place with affordable prices. A place with incredible attention

Beautiful cabbie’s cafe 🍽️ THIS is the english breakfast i wanna go back to every day - it was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was amazing and i felt like coming home! Who cares about any other famous cafes - i really felt like poaching people waiting in line and tell them to come here! Thank you very much for the great morning :)

Delicious English Breakfast. The amount of people there speaks for itself. Good food, big breakfast and top prices👌🏻 recommend

Great value for money! So kind people and tasty food! We loved the waiter from Kosovo he was very nice and funny😊 only 7£ for great breakfast plus great coffees!! They even had oat milk and such nice food on the front as well!

Great cheap cafe with friendly service

Affordable, no-frills spot for food. Quite busy, so it takes some time for you to be served and pay at the front. Ordered a Cornish pasty and chicken soup, came after a short wait. Nice and warm, didn't taste bad, great option on a cold winter day.

My favourite place on a Saturday morning.

I had the chicken escalope sandwich for lunch yesterday, it’s given me food poisoning!! Do not eat here

Excellent traditional breakfast, cooked well. Friendly staff, highly recommended.

Gutes, authentisches englisches Essen zu einem unschlagbaren Preis – hier wird man sehr freundlich bedient.

Great place best breakfast with proper Cumberland meaty sausages compared to the usual “cafe” meatless sausages

Fast and great food! Would make this my regular spot if I lived in the neighborhood.

The driver was not aware and I had to end up meeting him outside

Quick service and delicious good value food! Only room for improvement would be some cheap beers for 1 or 2 £’s !!

Simple and affordable cafe with a good English breakfast. If you don't feel like waiting for an hour for food at Regency cafe, definitely come over here. You'll get table service and not have to wait in line.

Auténtico english breakfast en sitio local. Variedad de platos, raciones grandes, ricas y muy buen precio.

A good place if you are visiting London and want to taste a real british breakfast

Espectacular desayuno inglés, comida casera y fresca. Platos grandes y a muy buen precio. Excelente atención y servicio. Sitio muy agradable.

Gran comida, ambiente auténtico local. Súper recomendable

Great food, nice place, quick service and good prices. We ordered the #3 and we were not disappointed!

El mejor lugar de londres! Buscando donde desayunar, con mi pareja encontramos este lugar para nosotros espectacular. Buena comida, muy variado, precios convenientes y buena atención. Lo recomendamos un 100%.

Looked for a local cafe that served English breakfasts & came across this one on google. My partner& I ordered 2 slightly different EB that came with a cup of coffee & it was delicious. Great pricing & great service. Would come back if I were to visit the area again.

VERY GOOD AND ONE OF THE CHEAPEST CAFE IN WESTMINISTER VERY DECENT PRICES AND LOTS OF FOOD FOR THE PRICE

Awesome staff, cozy place, delicious food

Die Sandwiches 🥪 waren super und mit frischem Gemüse belegt. Das Essen war günstig und der Service machte einen urigen Eindruck...

Its a proper cafe with good food and reasonably priced

If they didn't get my order slightly wrong, getting custard with my apple crumble instead of my ice cream order, they would have gotten 5 star, but good value nonetheless and tasty sandwiches

Ragazzi prezzo economico 7 sterline per colazione inglese e 7 scelte. Dolci con 2 sterline, enormi. Co siamo arrivati per caso fortunatamente era chiuso il più blasonato.

Very rude waiter service. Do not recommend

Food is good and at a good price. Just don’t expect a smile or friendliness from the waitress. And no, she wasn’t having a bad day, unless she had three in a row 🫤

Space is tight but I was seated immediately. Their English Breakfast tastes great and is very filling. I had it for lunch and it was enough to get through the rest of the day exploring London.

The Best Gypsy Cafe in London

Super restaurant où on peut manger un vrai « English breakfast ». Le personnel est accueillant.

My local for many years since the regency cafe sold it's soul! I love this place Love the banter Foods always good it is what It is proper cafe!

my favourite Gypsy Restaurant.

Great corned beef salad sandwich and delicious cherry and almond cake. Excellent value and quick service. They also take cards which is helpful. Fantastic caff will definitely be back.

Very good English breakfast for a good price! Very friendly servant, notified us while waiting outside when there was a free seating area available!

Authentic English breakfast - good value and yummy

food is amazing , i love supporting italian restaurants and i love supporting gypies and romanians.

Un super petit déjeuner anglais, dans les règles de l’art ! Bon, copieux, pas cher et complet. Aucune attente pour être servi, je recommande !

The food is absolutely amazing scampi is fresh lovely sweet peas, fish excellent and batter perfect, piping hot, cheese sandwich with lettuce, tomato and cucumber is amazing best cucumber, cans of coke arrived chilled lovely, foil on top of fish and chips to keep it hot, this is the most spotless cafe ever all staff wash there hands regularly , i have also been to cafe they have a lovely drinks selection and selection of donuts, all staff are polite the staff at astral cafe looks after you they always go the extra mile, flawless, Impeccable. my friend in a wheelchair always recommend astral cafe he has sent a lot of taxi drivers there and taxi drivers have came back to him and said that is my regular cafe now.

What a great place to grab dinner. We had the steak/mushroom and mozzarella/ham sandwiches. Add a couple of drinks, and we were set. Not expensive at all. A ton of locals piled in after us, letting us know we had made a good choice. Servers were great. The kitchen was closed, but there were still tons of options.

Super café découvert par hasard. Bon petit-déjeuner copieux. Mais quel dommage... la personne qui encaisse, un homme, peut-être le responsable... n'a pas été agréable. Aucun sourire au moment de l'encaissement... apparemment il avait rendu trop sur la monnaie. Au lieu de s'expliquer gentiment et correctement, il a retirer l'argent de notre main, brutalement et sans aucune explications... mon mari n'a pas compris ce qui se passait. Café sympa mais je n y retrounerai pas. Un peu de bienveillance et sourire manque au service en place 🙄 Ça aurait fait toute la différence

Good cafe, been on multiple occasions. Takeaway food prepared quickly, portion size and flavour good. Good value for money. Service could be better - today I wasn’t acknowledged for a little and then the staff weren’t particularly friendly, however they were very efficient. Overall recommend.

Very fast service and good portions of decent food at reasonable prices. Staff are friendly and efficient.

Lasagna a bit odd, not really great quality. The sandwiches are great from here though. Chicken curry was 95 percent rice with a tiny bit of curry dashed over it - the jacket potato chicken curry has more chicken and curry, for a much smaller price! Delivery always seems to be an issue though. My first ever order here driver got lost, and today, my delivery didn't even turn up and it was marked as delivered. Had to reorder, and the driver got lost again!

Muy buena comida al paso, a excelente precio. Pasamos por casualidad (en julio de 2023) y nos encontramos con varios taxistas londinenses en el lugar. Es un buen presagio. Los Arancinis estaban muy ricos y a 1.50 pounds! Lo demás también rico, sabroso. La atención no es la mejor, pero se puede obviar. Totalmente recomendable

Driver went to a completely wrong location. However he was very kind and always kept me updated

English breakfast at its finest!! Without queues, very tasty, enormous variety! Limited sittings, so be prepared! Well done to the whole team! 👏

Excellent service and excellent food went for breakfast cosy and full got a seat immediately on arrival

Had a amazing breakfast and was really well priced

One of the Best Breakfasts I have had, ordered from them multiple times, the Black Pudding is good quality, and the sausage is huge!

Delicious food and really nice people:)

Amazing breakfast!! Fast and sooo good for a great price!

Proper cafe you can tell by all London black taxi drivers who have eqsite taste

Great spot for breakfast. Staff are welcoming! I’ll be back.

Espectacular desayuno inglés. Sitio sin muchas pretenciones, su comida y atención son su mejor carta de presentación.

Great old-fashioned cafe. Will definitely be back.

Great value breakfast, get the hash browns.

Excellent no nonsense cafe that serves excellent food and really good mug of tea. I have been using this place for years and never been disappointed.

Astral Cafe is one of these places that people don not know about it. This place has amazing breakfast options, plenty lunch and dinner too. My favorite part is the breakfast because it is cheap, delicious and plenty. You can realize this place is quite nice because a lot taxis drivers eat there. In my experience the taxis drivers know where are the best places to eat.

Old skool cafe....a must for cabbies and all. 🇬🇧
