Aubaine Brompton Cross in Kensington and Chelsea

Had dinner here, and it was not good. Usually I would send to food back, but had a feeling this was the level they operated on so not even worth doing it. The steak sando felt like it been in a microwave to heat and was disgusting. A lobster pasta tasted like cream and ketchup with a bit of lobster stock, totally bland. Felt like a brunch place/cafe that decided to stay open later with no ambitions.

Waited quite a bit for what it felt like microwave food. Bit cold when the food arrived.

Cosy place. With great vibe and nice service. The pancakes the staff recommended were great. Also the avocado toast.

Lovely food and efficient service, would definitely recommend. 7 min walk from V & A museum.

Dinner at Aubaine Brompton Cross was an excellent experience. Great food in a great environment with excellent staff.

If you want to have a really lovely lunch, perhaps after a trip to the V&A, as we did - book Aubaine in the Brompton Road - a ten minute walk. The food was terrific (not cheap but, hey, this is the West End 🤷🏼‍♀️) and lovely service and ambience. We both had the lobster salad - fabulous! - and the mille feulle pastry was to die for. Highly recommend as a delightful culinary experience.

The food was excellent and arrived very quickly after we ordered.

A short bus ride or walk from South Kensington. Lovely food, quiet for a Saturday evening, nice décor, pleasant waitress and toilets not up/downstairs for once!

Food good, a little salty for the sauce but well presented,colourful and good tasting

Our waitress was really friendly, and we enjoyed our brunch here, but this was mostly due to the sunny day and the people watching sat at the window. The coffee was nice. My truffle scrambled eggs were quite cold and the eggs weren’t seasoned. My friend enjoyed her French toast.

Had lunch here, nice salad but nothing amazing. I think a little on the pricey side, but probably due to the location. The service was excellent, prompt, efficient and courteous.

The staff were so friendly. Beautiful place with great food and atmosphere.

Enjoyable Saturday lunch with friends. Nice ambiance. Good service.

Always enjoy Aubaine in. Brompton great service lovely setting

Lovely brunch before going to V & A . Service & food were both excellent. Will definitely go again

Perfect lunch setting for a catch up with old friends. Food was excellent.

Once one of my favourite places has become incredibly expensive and the quality of the food is really terrible. Too bad. I hope they get their acts together soon

Very friendly and professional staff, good food and drinks, lovely location

Nice place nice food nice staff nice location Bit pricey but where isnt these days Had lunch not very busy but enough people to provide nice atmosphere

Delicious food and cordial welcoming staff. We had a wonderful time!

The restaurant is without reservations, but if you arrive there, they say stay in line, and they only have one table inside the store, and the rest of the seating is outside

Great location and good food. Was quiet on the evening we went. The staff were helpful and attentive, but also left us alone

An excellent place for breakfast before exploring the city. Great welcome. 🍳🥐

High prices because of the setting and location I wasn't blown away by the food.

A great restaurant! Great food (salad to burgers). Nice and professional service

Fillet steak was perfectly done, sea bream was excellent as was the caesar salad with chicken. Nice staff and good food. Virgin mojito was 10/10!

As soon as we arrived, on time, at the restaurant for our 9.15 booking, the waiter informed us that we had five minutes to order, as the kitchen was closing. Having said this, he walked off. When, he returned, with us, in a hurried manner, having ordered, we enquired why, if there was also a 9.30 slot, were we rushed, he gave a vague answer again about the kitchen. We ordered the Stilton/apricot tart as a starter, which was so badly presented…basically, a little half tart with a wedge of Stilton. No utensils for serving it. It was put like on would at a fast food place. Then came the prawn & lobster roll. Quite honestly, flavourless. It was basically poached lobster & prawn tossed in store bought mayonnaise, put in a bun. I ordered a chicken escalope with a side of sweet potato fries. I would have the say, those were the tastiest item that we got. Everything else looked and tasted like something one could pick up from any supermarket counter and have reheated. The waiter only returned when we managed to get his attention after a few tries. All this, considering we were the only patrons in the restaurant. He never came and asked us for refills of our drinks, nor if the food was okay or if we needed anything else. Extremely disappointing for a suppository high end restaurant.

Best French toast in london! It’s literally perfect

When booking I asked for a quiet table due to the fact I have slight deafness. We were given a lovely window table but half way through lunch a particularly loud party were seated next to us so for the rest of lunch we could not hear a thing. The food overall was very fresh, but despite our lovely waitresses warnings the mille-feville was a) not as pictured on the dessert menu and b) not correctly made. My partner and daughter were not impressed with their creme brullee’s ~ not enough vanilla and the custard very dense. Our waitress and the ambience outside the neighbouring noise were delightful and we hope to return for an impressive mille feuille!

Aubane has been at Brompton Cross for quite a long time now and I haven’t been there for many years but have a very good lunch there yesterday. Service was excellent

This is the by far the most welcoming place where to have a brunch it has been the same mgmt for the past 20 years and cannot get any better.

Great coffee and fresh pastries

Decided to meet a friend for breakfast at this charming restaurant, per her recommendation. From the warm welcome to the cozy atmosphere, it felt like stepping into a friend’s home. The omelette I ordered was simply delicious. If you’re in the mood for delicious food and a laid-back vibe, this is the spot for you. I’ll definitely be returning again.

We are regulars there with our daughter and our dog. The best part is the thoughtful and cheery service from the charming staff. Large windows let in a lot of light, and in the summer there is outdoor seating on the pavement. Good for breakfast, lunch and supper

We had a lovely brunch here. My eggs royale were delicious. I appreciated that they had a nice children’s menu with nice food. Service is a bit slow at brunch time. Not unpleasantly so, but if you are not in for a wait, then this is not the place. The prices were a bit on the high side for brunch, we paid just under £100 for brunch for two adults and two children each having one course.

We had a lovely late brunch midweek here. Yes, the French food is delicious, but the menu has many creative options. I opted for salmon with a yummy mixture of wild mushrooms, toasted sage leaves and cauliflower in a delicious red current vinaigrette. My husband had the Superfood salad, one of the best Mediterranean salads we have ever had. Our waiter had good wine recommendations. We have talked about our meal there even after getting home to the States. So many other menu items to try. Bravo, we will come back!

Very enjoyable indeed. Suited us perfectly. Food was excellent and the service was exceptional. Highly recommended.

Great service and food represents great value for London!

Our favourite place to eat in South Kensington! Staff is very friendly

Atmosphere and food was outstanding but disappointed not to be told didn’t have wine ordered at the time and had to choose again. Disappointed with the Gavi de Gavi. Likewise, having wanted to order a starter then told they didn’t have it.

The service was so so lovely and the food was incredible ! The cocktail was to die for ! I'd give 10 stars if I could.

The reception was messy and bad. The old restaurant manager was not welcoming us in. I mean, if we were not there, we wouldn't have entered. He was impolite, his voice was loud, and he left the last table by the bathrooms, but I passed it in my mood.. We came to eat the main dishes. Everything was bad. The best thing was the fries 😁 Without exaggeration, everything was tasteless and bad. Flat white coffee is good, not burnt. Advice: Please do not believe the recommendations The price is high and they take a percentage on the bill for the service, and they do not deserve it. There is a waiter who I think is Indian. He was respectful and kind

Really good food, ambience and service Well located closed to Harrods and museums

We’ve been back twice in a week because the food is consistently good, and us and our baby daughter were always made to feel very welcomed and at home by Berat who was kind to us and accommodated every request. Highly recommended if you are in the Brompton area!

The pistachio & rose French toast is an exceptionally flavoursome variant of Aubaine’s already delicious French toast. As always, the service was very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is alway calm and relaxed, perfect for a Saturday morning brunch.

Aubain is a nice spot on the Kings Road. It’s popular with families and is noisy and slightly chaotic with children tottering around and mothers talking at the top of their voice as if they were at home. It’s dog friendly which is great. Service is good and food is tasty but on the frugal side.

Good food Great serivce Assimilation for museum visit

Beautiful place. Nice food. Great option if you’re visiting the museums and want somewhere really lovely. However, if you want a table by the window make sure to ask in advance!! These seem to be reserved for special guests.

Very good food and drink, get there early for the pastry’s.

Beautiful restaurant with amazing attention to detail. The food and drinks are delicious. All the courses were well presented. Five stars!

Thank you so much for this experience! Absolutely amazing food, and the most important service! Very friendly staff, my appreciation ❤️

Great menu selection for all types of food (meat, fish, vegetarian, vegan etc, good wine list and selection of drinks, excellent staff and very relaxed atmosphere, highly recommended.

Nice enough Was virtually empty, which is a shame as this used to be such a great restaurant. Expensive for what it was.

All the food was lukewarm, one burger and chips was cold so was sent back. VFM was diabolical

Good value, pleasant meal. We arrived 30 mins early after exhibition and were accommodated .

Poor service. Didnt get drinks menu. Didnt get drinks. Pepper shaker was empty. Food was bland. Atmosphere was nice though

The staff were very welcoming, and the restaurant has a attractive ambience. The 'January Sauveur' set menu was excellent value. It was my first time at Aubaine, and I will definitely go again.

food was delicious but the service was very poor even though there were only two other tables. the drinks were not great

food is always delicious however portions especially eggs could be a bit bigger - staff are always lovely. Acoustics are the only thing that lets this place down - they are terrible and I am not hard of hearing !!!

Lovely cafe with attentive, friendly staff who looked after us amazingly well! Highly recommended

Lovely brunch place ! Good food and service. Never disappointed.

The food is overpriced considering the small portions and the quality.

A lovely place to have breakfast in South Kensington!

Lovely lunch. Plenty of choice on the menu but not overwhelming. Delicious sweet potato fries.

Loved the decor, the service and the food. Staff were all very helpful and friendly.

Worse meal ever! We usually eat at this restaurant when we visit London but never again. I ordered a lobster Caesar Salad. My wife ordered the Wagyu Sando. The lobster looked like a piece of dried rubber and tasted worse. My wife’s dish tasted strong to her and she asked me to try a bit. It was pure slime. I almost coked. We decided to pay and leave. We could not image ordering anything else. Really, I have never had a worse meal. We paid 75 pounds The best thing I could say about the experience is we did not get food poisoning.

Called for coffee great taste and friendly staff

Very quite but great place for relaxed hangouts

Just awful. Inedible food. We left after one bite. We paid but regret that now. Use to be a good restaurant now the worst.

Gorgeous place and really lovely service. Thank you!

Excellent plate of hot (that makes a change from many London locations that can't seem to get the temperature of food right) scrambled eggs and ham. But cold toast...and not very toasty toast at that, more baked in the oven toast .Why can't the French make toast ? A very expensive but good Americano (£4.50 !!!) brought a simple eggs and coffee breakfast to over £16. Ok if you are oil rich but a bit much even for locals. The atmosphere to some might seem "cosy" but I found it sombre and a wee bit depressing, in fact the place looked closed when first approached.A Feng shui expert could do wonders for the place.

Great service provided by the lady from Moldova unfortunately I don’t know her name Food was good and ambiance as well

Brilliant breakfast on both mornings and great chats with the staff and managers

Extremely slow service. Food was mediocre. I have been going there for the past 15 years and was quite disappointed - maybe the staff /chef have changed hands?

A super tasty meal in a lovely setting. Service was perfect and not rushed.

My husband & I had a wonderful meal ahead of the Carol concert at the RAH (only a 15min walk away) The mushroom & truffle rigatoni was delicious as was the brioche mincemeat french toast dessert. Great service and a very attractive venue for a dinner. Will definitely be back.

Excellent place for a casual lunch The lamb croquettes were great

Lovely place for brunch. Very friendly staff, perfectly poached eggs and delicious coffee. About 5 mins walk to V&A.

Loved Aubaine! The best sticky toffee pudding I had while in the City!! Service and staff were great!

Food is always good and staff are great Unfortunately we were moved twice as a big party came in but they did give us a free pudding

Excellent service. The Manager is so helpful with a great sense of humour. Enjoyed it very much. Thank you

We needed a promptly-served, light meal before an early evening event at the nearby V&A Museum. This proved the perfect choice. The food was very enjoyable and we had excellent service.

We had dinner here with friends. Food was excellent, along with the service. Our daughter was poorly at one point and the staff were very kind and helpful. Overall a fabulous experience. Thank you !

Noise improved after very loud uncontrolled child left. Poor on gluten free

Great experience absolutely loved it. The ambience was v nice too

Perfect place for lunch when visiting the V&A. Great menu- plenty of choices.

Stylish venue, attentive service, quality food, good value.

I really enjoyed the food however the service lacked a lot of sympathy. I was told there were no tables available (I could spot at least 4 available) and that I would have to sit outside if I wanted to eat. I told the manager I was pregnant and very tired but still he didn’t give in. I sat outside although it was very chilly, opened opentable and just as I suspected there was availability so I booked a table through the app… Went back inside showed them the reservation made in that same minute and oopsi they had to sit me down. Didn’t really appreciate the snobbish attitude from who I think was the manager, who acted as a superior with absolutely no need whatsoever. In the end he just looked daft and until the end of my meal there were free tables.

Good service, nice and spacious, easy to hear conversation, excellent cocktails and good food

Perfect place to go for a spot of lunch before visiting the V&A.

Great egg dishes and French toast in a great location

The staff there were wonderful and accommodated by birthday perfectly

We love it and have been coming back for years. Please keep up great quality of food and service.

We enjoyed a lovely dinner and our waitstaff were perfectly attentive. If you are passing through London it’s worth a stop.

Delicious lunch and very helpful and pleasant staff.

The only restaurant in the world where fried calamari and Spanish croquetas are so hot and spicy that were uneatable. Where did the chef learn to cook those simple dishes? That said, service was efficient and nice (waitress Christine was concerned). The place is nice. But the main item in a restaurant is food, isn’t it?

service was too slow. Food was Ordinary. Overpriced for what’s offered

Amazing croissant but average egg benedict. For the price and location, average.

South Kensington 站 走路過去還好. avocado toast 用的麵包很難吃. 又乾又難吃. 新鮮柳橙汁不錯. 拿鐵的咖啡因含量超級高. 好喝. 但之後我有點咖啡因過量的噁心感. 法式吐司普普通通. 法國早餐三明治不錯. 這些食物的份量都小. 沙拉份量大. 下次想吃沙拉.

I don’t recommend having breakfast here at all. Try greenspeare on Walton road it is much better for the same price. The staff were very inattentive! I had to ask for my coffee twice. Bit of an attitude.
