We are here in London from the United States and so happy we found Brown & Rosie in Nottingham! We spent three weeks traveling around England… Brown & Rosie is at the top of our list of favorite places. We had dinner twice and breakfast once. Hamburgers were awesome. My French toast topped with fruit and ice cream was delicious! Not sure when we will back to London but we will never visit London again without stopping in at Brown & Rosie! Thanks so much from an American Tourist!

I've been there around 10 times during the last year even for my wife birthday, the general atmosphere is nice and they sell tasty products. But today I had one of the most embarrassing situations I was rejected with my entire family ( a group of 5 ppl) by a very VERY rude guy, because we sat at a table outside for some drinks and tarts at 4 pm and he want us to have a full lunch at 4 PM. !! . Then he asked us to leave. Is incredible. I'LL NEVER VISIT AGAIN. !

You will be lured in by the aesthetics of the selection of cakes in the window. Do not fall for it! These cakes are not homemade but rather plastic wrapped/boxes cakes shipped in from an outside vendor. They are dry, lacking flavor, and taste like a refrigerator. If you head to the restroom downstairs you can see that the kitchen is not at all in use but rather a storage area for boxes. Absolute shame I didn’t check google first.

Today, I visited the South Kensington branch of Brown and Rosie with a friend and our small children. We were turned away by the manager, who claimed the restaurant was fully booked, despite seating several walk-in customers and having many empty tables. I believe we were discriminated against because I am a Muslim woman who wears a hijab. The manager's excuses were contradictory and false. This experience was deeply hurtful and disappointing. I will be informing the online Muslim community and considering further action. Discrimination has no place in our society.

Nice looking spot, but awful food. I ordered a shiraz and the spicy chipotle chicken burger. The fries were inedible, dry, hard and barely warm. The batter on the chicken was like eating gravel. And it was mainly batter, hardly any chicken in there. It called itself "spicy" but it was nowhere remotely close to spicy. I won't be going back again. Shame, as it's a great location, looks pretty, staff were ok, and the wine was nice.

This place looked busy so we thought this meant the food and service must be good, we were wrong! I had waffles, my husband had burger and chips, my daughter had pancakes. The waflles were dry, barely lukewarm, and were drowned in chocolate (I'm a chocoholic and this was too much for me). I only managed to eat half. The pancakes were basically the same. The burger wasn't nice and the fries were overcooked and hard. My husband managed to eat half of the burger and a couple of chips. Although the waiter efficient I was surprised he didn't question why we had left the majority of the food. We should have complained at the time but was so disappointed we just wanted to leave. Definitely wouldn't visit again.

I’m possibly being harsh with some of this review, as there were good aspects of my experience today. Dire. The omelette. I’ve had better omelettes served on planes than this one. In fact, most plane food is better than this. It looked like plastic, it had the texture of plastic and tasted of nothing. The mushrooms looked unappetising too. The staff accepted my rejection (after checking with the manager first) and the kitchen quickly turned around the replacement dish which was a respectable Smashed Avo with Feta and a side of poached egg. It took quite some time to attract their attention to get the bill. This is my second time here. The first was disappointing so there won’t be a third. But luckily for this place, there are enough good reviews and enough people walking past that the place stays in business.

Came here yesterday to buy a lemon cake slice which cost £5.50. I have to say I’m disappointed with myself for not looking at other reviews on here first as the card was dull, sponge was not soft and the butter cream you could still taste a grit texture where the sugar granules wasn’t mixed well. For the price I’m never coming back here as this was way over priced and not worth the money at all, my only advice is don’t be fooled by the displays like we did from the window.

The location looks good, the staff are friendly, the seats are like rocks. The menu is a little uninspiring but I was in a rush and so thought I’d give it a try. The wine was basic at best, but then the food came and made it look like manna from heaven. I ordered a quesadilla which should be difficult to get wrong but honestly I have never been so surprised. It was as if it was a reality show competition in which they gave an alien a basic idea of what it should look like but with no suggestion of a recipe. It was any old chicken with no flavouring, no cheese, no chipotle ( for a chipotle quesadilla) and jalapeños and guacamole straight from tins and packets. The teeny wraps were dry as desiccated dinosaur bones and it was impossible to pick up. It had almost no flavour apart from a mild hint of baby food from a tin. Avoid.

DO NOT GO HERE! SCAMMERS AT BEST! Wish we'd read the reviews first, I mean the rating in total speaks for itself. We went in, looking for lunch, lured by the small red velvet cupcakes and simple focaccia bread. We ordered two salmon bagels, a small red velvet cupcake and two waters. When we were finished we were surprised by the cost and went back to ask for the bill. Upon inspection we saw the small red velvet cake costed £5 (go to "Buns from home" and get the cheesecake bun for £4.5 which tasted fresh and lovely instead of this which looked good but tasted like regret!) and a small bottle of water costs £3.7! Which shocked us more was the surplus for service of 12.50%! The service was the bare minimum so we wouldn't have tipped at all. The bagels were nice but not worth the price point. Save your coin and go to another place where they do not scam you!

The location and atmosphere are great, but the staff and service is terrible! I met up with two friends who were wrapping up their meals and joined them on the table next to them. I was given a menu and asked if I'd like to order to which I said no thanks just tap water. The waiter frowned a bit but ultimately left with no comment, so I assumed there was no issue with me being there. Later another waiter came and asked what I'd like to order. I repeat that I'd just like tap water. That's when they asked me to leave if I wasn't going to order. I understand why they did that, but seeing as there were empty tables and I was expecting we'd leave in the next 10 mins I explained I'm only waiting for my friends to finish up and we'd all be on our way. Then the waiter became annoyed and said that he has lunch reservations and I had to leave demonstratively taking the menus. Like I mentioned there were empty tables around it was 15:35, so well past lunch and there was no reserved sign on the table I was sat on. Additionally from what I did see in the menu the food looked to be substantially overpriced for what was being brought out, although I can't comment on its taste.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. You’d be easily fooled by the appearance - busy, attentive waiters, nice looking - but all is not as it seems. Distinctly average food, and overpriced given the quality and size of portions. I had the Grilled Chicken and Halloumi Salad, which only came with 2 small slices of halloumi. The chicken was overcooked and tough as old boots. A friend has the chicken tacos, which were served cold with the same tough chicken breast, and copious amounts of shredded lettuce and mayo. The coffee is decent though. Staff were friendly and attentive, service was quite quick given how busy it was. Overall would recommend to try one of the many other options nearby. This is most definitely a bit of a tourist trap.

I can definitely make both a lot better at home… the tomatoes were just tossed straight from the can in to the pot. They didn’t use anything fresh it seems. The bread seemed to be from the market as well, not baked local. The service was fast but they didn’t want to serve water. They didn’t have salt and pepper for the table, when asked they brought in the satchets you get on the plane.. for god’s sake, you are a restaurant!! Very disappointed.

We had a lovely time at Gail’s, we sat in the back corner which felt cosy and private. The iced caramel latte was very nice.

I went there for a coffee and wanted to use the toilet first and there was a rude lady who shouted where I was going. I said I wanted to use the toilet first and she shouted that it was for private use and when I asked where was the toilet for customers she pointed outside and said the public toilets in the street. It’s disgusting in this day and age for an establishment who serves food not to have rest rooms for customers to use. It should open its toilet to customers or close.

Evitar a toda costa. La persona más grosera que he conocido en Londres hasta ahora. Quería tomar el desayuno antes de visitar los museos, así que me senté y pedí unas bebidas. Elegimos nuestro desayuno solo para que no nos dijeran nada excepto paninis. No por favor o gracias. Olvidé el batido de mis hijos y luego me molestó que lo pidiera. Me arrebató el dinero de la mano. Ahorre su dinero y visite la cafetería de al lado

I did not expect to be upset by visiting Daisy Green restaurant in Holland Park. I went to investigate the new restaurant with a view to using it regularly if it turns out to be as good as it sounds. Ordered my take away coffee, and was offered a card machine to pay. It turns out, you only take cards. I was furious. You won't take my money ????? I had about £200 with me. So there are 3 million people in the UK who don't have bank accounts, let alone credit cards. This is for many many reasons. Some of which is that they are vulnerable or have had financial difficulties. They are not pariahs , but according to you they are. So you are an exclusive establishment. You only serve those who suit you ? Then there is the fact that you are encouraging banks and credit card companies to hold you , and therefore us to ransom. Once cash is not used in society, they decide how much to charge you for taking their card payments .... and who will ultimately pay ? US, the customer. You and other businesses are responsible for this . Trust me, once there is no choice you will HAVE to pay what they want. Many companies are now refusing Amex cards because of this exact reason. Do you not realise that once there is no cash in society , they will all work together ??? You won't take my money , my legal tender, the money I might give to my grandchild when they start to learn to go up to the counter with money to gain confidence and learn how it works, or maybe it's their pocket money ? oh but how can they spend their pocket money ....you have to get a 5 year old a bank account with a card for them to tap ? learn about change and what money they get back ? no need I suppose . So i will not be coming back, not to buy a take away OR use the restaurant. I have a company that helps and supports clients in the area. Well they are not going to be guided and referred  to you. One of whom had seven children up to 25 years old and lives very close by, I will explain my thoughts to them. I did not expect to come to the park and was upset this morning. Not something I will forget. My thoughts will be shared on Google ( I am told by them that my reviews have reached tens of thousands of people , though i find that hard to believe). Ive just looked at your reviews and it looks like other people have had their own disappointments. There are FB groups encouraging people to boycott companies who don't take cash. I myself am a member of one of them and am obliged to share.  I will be writing to my MP and giving your company as an example. In fact I may as well just cc him and perhaps the local council who i presume rent the property to you? Yikes on googling who owns it, Tripadvisor came up and there are also some negatives about your new establishment.  Perhaps you could rethink your policy Daisy Green and consider reading some of the other reviews. It doesn't look like it will take too much for you to improve your reviews. The Holland Park Cafe is important to SO many people , it is a precious resource. You are letting us all down, being a part of changing our society and how the banks control us .
