Pasticceria francese vicino a kings cross a Londra. Qualità delle brioches eccezionale, ampia scelta sia di dolce che salato. Prezzo alto ma giustificato dalla qualità sopraffina. Servizio gentile e alla mano.

A lovely little cafe with genuine staff and pastries. Me and my wife had a great breakfast here. Fresh made orange juice and the coffee was very good. As an eating in customer I would have preferred non take away cups.

Een topzaak oor ontbijt en lunch. Zeer vriendelijk personeel en uitermate heerlijke broodjes en croissants. Er zijn een paar zitjes binnen en buiten. Achterin de zaak worden de croissants en andere gerechten gemaakt. De kwaliteit is uitzonderlijk goed. Sowieso de lekkerste amandel croissants die je je kunt voorstellen. Een absolute aanrader voor wie in dit deel van Londen verblijft.

I enjoyed a fresh baked croissant that was stuffed with thin slices of honey baked ham and Emmental cheese; the man behind the counter offered to toast it for me or you can choose to have it non toasted, 4.95. The Croque Monsieur, a ham/cheese baked sandwich looked delicious for breakfast too, as well as all of the pastries on display. There is limited seating along a small counter inside and a few chairs outside.

I stumbled upon this bakery whilst waiting for my train back up north from Kings X. The bakery is just a short distance from the station. All I can say is wow. After trying MANY cakes on a weekly basis these are some of the best, freshest, most divine morsels I have ever encountered. The young lad behind the counter recommended the croissant dipped in chocolate with a cream filling and pistachios. It was spectacular. So much so I went back inside to speak to the owner to tell her just how impressed I was. If I am ever in London this will 100% be on my list every time. I may even just perhaps drive to London specifically for this. It is worth it! Wonderful french pastries, lovely young man and a delightful owner.

We had breakfast here everyday while in London. Croissants are amazing. Not only does it taste great, each one is freshly made and perfectly shaped. My favourite pastry is Paris-Brest. Donut shaped croissant with almond topping and filled with hazelnut cream. Crispy outside and soft inside with nutty sweet savoury flavour. All the texture and flavours merge so well together. The chef showed me a bigger croissant which she had made for her own lunch. It was perfectly shaped too. Not all chefs enjoy their bakes so much. Shows how skilled and passionate she is.

If you are looking for a good bakery to have a light bite with coffee, Aux Pains de Papy is the place to be. It is well known for its Croissants, which I myself loved too and the raisin bread was just too good. It is just a 5-minute walk away from Kings Cross station. Would highly recommend a visit.

It really is an unbelievably good pastry - I had the almond pain aux chocolat and it blew my mind. The pastry was both crisp and chewy, sweet and buttery with a little salt. Still warm from the oven, the chocolate was molten, and there was loads of almond paste, flaked almonds and a faint dusting of powdered sugar. Wow. Lovely staff too. Thank you.

Autentisk og meget lækkert men desværre ikke plads til siddende gæster på stedet. No seating kun take away. Ærgerligt .

Dashing, late in the day, my hunger spied almond croissant. I had to go in. Monsieur 'Gorgeous & Charming', declared his croissants 'the best!' And he was right - the best I've had bar nowhere. Sadly, I'm not often in the area . . . but if you are, don't hesitate to choose this gem of an establishment. Completely delicious.

We were looking for a place to eat some breakfast and stumbled upon this bakery - we were served by the friendliest cashier and treated like royalty - combine that with the fantastic sandwiches and toasts and you have great breakfast experience - definitely recommended!

Just lovely. The staff are full of charm and smiles. Every treat - from the ham and cheese sandwich warmed through on the grill, to the almond croissant - is indulgent and so satisfying, especially with their balanced cappuccino. At no more than a five-minute walk from Kings X, it is well worth a visit for breakfast or take away. Our favourite bakery!

Rather than viist a chain bakery in St Pancras, (it is 8 minutes walk away) I took my daughter here to coffee and cake (pain au chocolat in her case, pain au raisin in mine.) As always, beautifully made and carefullly served. Thsi time I ordered their bread (the visit I was impressed by their in-house baguettes). It is super pain au levain, as good as you will get in France or Portugal

The power of a genuine smile is the seed of quality service. Glad to see that there are still places like Aux Pains de Papy in London where one can experience good truthful service. On top of that the chocolate/almond croissant and hot chocolate is great. Starbucks, Pret, Nero and the likes should send their trainees to learn by example. We would all start our days in greater spirits. He who sees, he sees!

Un caffè francese, nel cuore di Londra…A due passi dal British Museum. Un apparente paradosso ma che in realtà è perfettamente integrato nel contesto e offre l’occasione di una pausa pranzo o di una merenda davvero gradevole, in un ambiente delizioso.

Very underwhelming experience. We have dined in several Michelin star restaurants around the world and love a good experience. This restaurant was a great disappointment. We had the evening menu, which appears to be dishes from the menu but to share and therefore double the price, other tables had ordered regular meals and they appeared to be the same size as the one we had to share. Secondly the food was just not great. Very normal, nothing extraordinary or special in any kind of way, rather boring and bland. Also the service was unable to speak proper English therefore the communication was difficult. The wine had to be self-served, the bottle was left at the table, no-one checked on us to refill our glasses. When we spoke up regarding missing fish cutlery, we got a rude answer from the waiter that he can cut it perfectly fine and would do it for us if we struggled 😳. No explanation on the dishes was given, just placed in front of us. Also the restaurants atmosphere is not great, it is very busy as the kitchen is on the upper floor and you can see and hear the waiters running up and down the hallway. The bar in the upper floor is operated in a loudly manner. When we asked to waive the service charge, our waitress was not able to understand the ask herself and called the manager who discussed the situation, so a bad meal with bad service was followed by a socially awkward conversation. We would have expected a price reduction at the very least. Would not recommend, genuinely don’t understand how they managed to get a Michelin Star.

I was really looking forward to visit the place after seeing the menu online, but sadly when I arrived to the restaurant there was at least 5 different dishes, if the menu was the same of the one online I would have gone for the 10 courses menu but opted for the 8 instead, which felt like a gimmick anyways because they count the canapés, pre dessert and petit fours as a course, and the cheese course being a shortcut to avoid cooking an extra dish, so in the end I really got 5 courses and paid for 8, I think they do this with everyone. The canapés and the 3 savoury courses were great, but the pre dessert and dessert were really disappointing, not really creative and the dessert left me only with a taste of basil even after the petit fours and a bit of wine that I had left. The service was friendly but sloppy, the tablecloth was dirty and I noticed even before seating but didn’t want to make a fuss out of it. Then I’ve been asked for water twice and got even the wrong one 🤦🏻‍♂️ To order food was way quicker than ordering wine which took like 15 mins and they literally had 5 tables in the room, also the waiting between the courses was way too long, which means that either the front of house or the chefs are very slow. The wine list is embarrassing and as a sommelier myself seems like a set up to rip you off, there’s not a single bottle of wine under £90, also the wines by the glass they have a gap from like £25 to £40 to £125 which is insane, no half bottles either, and for my firsrt glass of wine they didn’t even offer me to taste it before, despite the wines I ordered were both a good value and the guy who served it was decent and had some knowledge. In all this I think it was the owner sitting next to my table with some friends and drinking wine instead of worrying about the mediocre service they give which is not worth of a Michelin star, probably they are just retaining it because they have it for long time and know the people of the guide. 190£ for just myself for that menu and 2 glasses of wine is absolutely not worth it and I won’t recommend anyone that has eye for details to go there. The room itself looks so old that saying that the place feel like is stuck in the 80’s is generous. Feels bad to leave a review like this, in first place because I work in the industry and I never like to talk bad about other places, and because the staff were friendly and offered me also a glass of white wine to go with my cheeses, but after what I spent I feel like it was absolutely outrageous for the food and wines and the only taste that stays in your mouth is bitter. Also for some very weird reasons after the review the owner tries to follow me from his private instagram account probably trying to write me something. He never moved from the table as he stated in the answer and he had about 2 bottles of wine while on duty. Manager apparently that doesn’t know what a salsa verde is made of, letting guests order anything and then go and amend the order which is very annoying, another lady nearly placed my water bottle on the butter plate and so on I can go ahead for 4 pages. This place is completely pitiful and the owner is the most embarrassing and unprofessional I ever seen in my life, drinking while working and also trying to contact people. Avoid at all cost, mediocrity masked for class, which they won’t have even if they will but.

It was a while since we had been to Mon Plaisir and we were pleased that we had returned. The staff seemed less French but the food was decidedly so and both aspects were very good, albeit we waited a little longer than expected for our main courses. We selected from the main menu and seasonal specials rather than the good value set menu, so it was quite an expensive lunch, especially with the very good house champagne at £17 a glass and glasses of wine at 13 or 14. Our mains ranged from 28 to 36. Overall, very good but quite pricey.
