Byzantium in City of London, Westminster

Great atmosphere and the owner is lovely!! The coffee is great and will definitely go back!!! They have the cutest mugs:))

One of the best coffees I’ve had in London, love coming here

We ordered spinach and cheese pie, and Greek salad, all fresh, all yummy, strong recommend!

Passed this cafe dozens of times but finally went in recently for a freddo cappuccino and orange pie. It was absolutely wonderful! Kind staff, and the freddo cappuccino and orange pie tasted EXACTLY as it does in Greece. Wonderful to have this cafe in the neighbourhood for whenever we want a trip to Greece 😉

Loved it! The cheese spinach pie was amazing, and the service very friendly.

I came in today to the Byzantium cafe today I had a Greek Coffee ☕️ and a cake it was excellent and I will be back again soon

I have come here a couple of times this past year. I love the coffee here. The manager/owner is very warm and welcoming. Their orange pie and other pastries (savoury or sweet) are to die for! So amazing. Their hot food and salads are also great. Definitely recommend people to come here.

Not a good cup of tea, disappointing

I discovered the café on my first trip to London 2 years ago and loved it, so I had to stop by again now! The food is relatively expensive but absolutely delicious!

It was amazing experience with nice food and staff. Greek salad was amazing. Really recommend.

THE BEST PLACE FOR A COFFEE AND BREAKFAST . TRY THE BOUGATSA THE CHEESE PIE THE SPINACH PIE AND THE FAMOUS GREEK DISH KAGIANA WITH EGGS-FETA AND TOMATO .HIGH QUALITY GREDO CAPPUCINO AND ESPRESSO BETTER THAN MANY GREEK CAFES IN ATHENS .STRONGLY RECOMMENDED .PERFECT PRICE-QUALITY VALUE .

This place is a go-to when I’m in the area. It feels like I’m back in Greece and a perfect escape from busy London. Wonderful management and great coffee.

We happened upon this place one morning and tried their coffee and pastries. Coffee was good, pastries were a bit dry. I’d like to come back and try the cooked breakfast next!

Nice place to go and work if working remotely. Good vibes, good music and good spinach pie.

Zufallsfund. Guter Kaffee und kleine Auswahl für Frühstücke. Alles sehr gut und in entspannter Atmosphäre. Sehr netter Service. Nur Kartenzahlung.

Small but great restaurant with a great ambience. We had cheese pie, tea and chai latte etc. Everything tasted good. The only downside: the chai latte was served in a cup without a handle. Because of the heat, I was only able to hold the cup in my hands after waiting about 10-15 minutes. Gladly again. :-)

Profit and nothing more. £18 a stale bun and £30 second rate wines. Only for fools and ignoramuses

Somethings never change. Poor service in the 1990’s continues to this day. Obnoxious atmosphere, self imposed illogical seating rules, heater outside with no gas connection and general indifference towards customers.

I "only" took an ice matsha latte on the go, but it was the best match latte I've ever had. Really tasty and perfect mix. The service was very nice and the pastries and dishes all looked very tasty. The ambience looks inviting and cozy. A really nice cafe in a quiet location.

Super slow service, takes forever to the lady on the till to prepare a coffee ☕️. Customers can't wait forever to get an order. Previous owners offered better service. It's a shame cause its a nice shop.

Nice place, nice service, more chill and focus atmosphere.

Very nice little cafe. We were happy to go there after the rain and the cold! We had a great time and a great welcome.

Just a wonderful place and divine food - both in house and to take away for a large party!

Good customer service, lovely coffee,and a nice atmosphere always.

well prepared modern Greek dishes

Excellent service and great food! I totally recommend it.

Small but nice and pleasant background music. We would love to come back 👍

Food prepared with love, full of taste, served with love. Everything we had was delicious!! Great for lunch

Excellent welcome and excellent food, special thanks to Inan

The new management have completely transformed Byzantium Cafe again. The atmosphere is lovely, warm and cosy. The food is simple and delicious, like home made, and beautifully presented. Finally the coffee is good again and the choice of cakes is great. Well done and thank you for making Byzantium such a wonderful place again.

Staff has bad attitude,impolite, especially the female person on the till.

The food, the service, the atmosphere! Best place ever!

Το επισκεφθηκα μετα απο 23 χρονια! Ανανεωμενος χωρος, με αρκετα γλυκα και ...freddo espresso!

Best food / coffee in London by Far !! Best if the best I wish I lived upstairs :)

No puedes parar sin probar; Chicken Pie Cheese pie!!! Delicioso!! Cual de los dos mejor… Muy amables Quedamos encantados.

The iconic Byzantium Cafe of the 90's had lost its edge. For years it was struggling to find its identity. The new management, completely changed it and although it's not a traditional Greek cafe any more, I have to say that it's brilliant! Imam - stuffed aubergine, the Greek Salad and the mixed salad were all great. Really nice and traditional flavours, nice presentation (without being OTT), friendly staff and reasonable prices. What's not to like?

Perfect Place to start in the Day

The best oat milk cappuccino I have ever had.

Excellent place! Super reasonable price. Food is delicious and well presented. We had some time until check-in and we felt completely at home. ☕

Lovely little café with great coffee

Neat small cost place with great food and coffee. The food is 3-4 people sized so get a single item.

The food was amazing,thank you so much!

Very friendly service and very good food

Everything is just great - coffee, service, atmosphere! They don’t have a lot of variety food wise but what they do is really yummy. Perfect for families and kids but also if you want to read in peace. My kids are super well behaved there. They got crayons and toys to play and it’s always clean like at home! We practically live in this place. Also a rare occasion where everyone who works there is just wonderful! Well done for building such a team!

What a great place! I had breakfast there and it was delicious. Great styling and very friendly service!

Caffetteria ottima e varietà di scelta tra torte,biscotti dolci e salati. Flat White e chai latte davvero molto buoni.

Excellent and warm personal service, vegan choices - we came 3 times and it was delicious 🥳🙌🏽😋 plus linden tree with honey herbal tea 🥳

Great little greek, fantastic fredo expresso, out of this world greek salad. Highly recommend this place.

Hello Saturday, back at one of my favorite places! Greek Goodness 😋 so many times when eating out I like to go in reverse. What does that mean, you might ask? Well, it means I like to start my meal first with something sweet. I know you are puzzled a bit?! ? 😂 But no worries, try sometimes. Today I had Greek coffee with a delicious chocolate cookie that was full of dark chocolate chunks. I like to dip in my cookie in my coffee. It does remind me of my childhood when grandma made kids coffee and cookies were given and we were included as part of that ritual. Some of the most special memories! Something I always order here is spinach pie or spanakopita, and I make sure and tell them to warm up extra. So tasty and crunchy on top. Cheese inside was perfectly balanced and not too salty as I have had in some others places in London. The breakfast eggs called Kayana are absolutely one of my fave things to have here! They serve it with the green salad and the eggs are placed on top of the grilled bread! To me kayana always needs to have correct spices including oregano which makes this eggs more flavorful. Otherwise it would be just plain scrambled eggs. Right amount of tomatoes, spices and feta with olive oil and you will ask for one more order, trust me! I hope you will try this place and I might even be there, so don’t be shy and say hello! Have a be blessed weekend dear people! Cheers to Life! 🙏☀️

Great food, friendly service and a really nice place.

Great food, easy friendly service. If I lived nearby I'd be a regular

Lovely home made greek delicacies and coffees. Highly recommended!!

Un cadre plein de charme pour prendre un petit café ou pour manger. Des produits frais et goûteux et des propositions simples mais avec une petite touche d'originalité. J'ai adoré la salade grecque avec l'excellente fêta et son écrasé de pain bio au levain croustillant. À noter également la gentillesse de l'accueil et du service et la possibilité d'acheter quelques produits traditionnels grecques. Top!

Seriously good place, the service is outstanding and the coffee even better. Good choices are great, so fresh and authentic. Love it.

Such a lovely place, the service is excellent. Coffee is great and their delicious carrot cake is a must try. Please note that this cafe isn't permanently closed.

a true delight… inviting ambiance… the menu featured a wide variety of traditional Greek delicacies with aromatic dressing… loved it!

Incredible place for brunch. Incredible place for dinner. Amazing service, staff are so nice. Eggs with feta cheese was great. Coffee was great. Came recently for dinner and had the roasted “giant beans” tray (literally they serve it in a cute baking tray that it was cooked in?

Excellent food with excellent service - the guy keeps an eye on everyone and has a nice word or two for everyone, even during stressful hours. Respect 👏👏👏

Wow! Just got home from a friends birthday and I must say, the food and service was impeccable. The salads were just perfect, I’m not even a salad type of guy, so that says a lot! The owner was attentive and showed commitment to keep us happy throughout the night. Will 100% recommend this place. My wife and I are already planning our next visit.

Very nice cafe and breakfast . Staff are friendly .

Kena kreeka köögi moodi köögiga kohake.

Very relaxing location for an afternoon read. Coffees were splendid and beautifully presented. The owner is the nicest person ever. A gem of a cafe in London.

Very good little restaurant. Small menu card, but the Greek pasta was good. The cappuccino was fantastic! The best in London, with free cookie!

Cool setting and athmospere, but somehow remanding modern Greece. They offer take away too. You can enjoy breakfast or lunch as well as dinner, choosing frome salads, pies, pastries and cakes and daily specials. These ones are not divided by portions, but only by trays, so you can enjoy them only if you're two or three. We ate slow cooked beef with mash. The beef was good, even if it seemed more a Piedmont brasato than a greek stifado, but we didn't like mashed potatoes, because there was too much nutmeg for us. Anyway we found quite high quality, quite low prices and absolute kindness. Would go here again!

Delicious coffee and food and lovely friendly service

It’s very relaxing to have a cup of coffee here. Good iced americano!

Such a lovely atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming team. Great coffee and a delicious selection to choose from. Great ambiance and lots of authentic items to purchase…bravo 👏

Delicious Greek food! We really enjoyed our dinner, staff was very kind and prices reasonable. I recommend! 😊

Délicieux vraiment excellent. Barista qui connaît son métier ❤️ on recommande et prix vraiment raisonnable

I came across this peaceful Greek while riding my bike .The staff was friendly and held the door open so I could bring my bike inside. I tried the vegetable tart, which was incredibly tasty and the pastry part of which melted in your mouth as proof that everything in the cafe is made from scratch. The coffee is outstanding, and the cafe's long wooden tables make you feel at home.

Really nice little location for a coffee date! Can personally recommend the carrot cake and the chai latte. Nice atmosphere and friendly service.

The restaurant feels like you might be dining in the home of a lovely Greek family. Everyone was polite, helpful and informative. The food was delicious and authentic, and prices affordable. My friends and I had a great evening out.

Excellent coffee. Lovely sweet treats and light meals. Friendly service. A clean, contemporary interior. Really pleased to have discovered this place. Only 2 minutes away from Bayswater tube station, but a little oasis that is calm and classy.

Delicious family owned cafe. The food is freshly made everyday, pastries are authentic greek and owner/staff are lovely.

Nous sommes ressorti ravis ! La cuisine est excellente à l’image du service ! Nous recommandons fortement d’y aller !!

Brilliant cafe/restaurant! My partner and I only recently discovered and have been visiting for coffee and dinner. The staff are exceptional, service is fantastic, food is delicious and very good coffee!

This cafe had beautiful style and made me feel very welcomed. The employees were extremely lovely, I especially loved the delicious coffee and food. I can’t wait to go back very soon!

We had an amazing slow cooked beef with mashed potato and the best Greek salad ever! All the staff were very friendly and welcoming and I love the fact that is big long tables that you get to share with more people and potentially engage conversations. Fresh delicious food and looking forward to be back soon 💙

Ένας υπέροχος χώρος με ποιοτικό καφέ και γευστικά γλυκά....το προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα...

Amazing home-cooked delicious food! We had the slow cooked beef with tomato sauce and mashed potatoes and it was AMAZING! Good quality meat, delicious mash - what can I say - really brought back childhood memories! The staff is so friendly and nice feels like so nice and welcoming - would love to go back again! All the best team and thank you!

Very nice moment and good products ☺️

My visits here were beyond excellent, some of the best dining experience in my life. Using a new concept of all diners sharing the same dish, this place delivers rich flavours and quality meals with pride, and rightly so. The Greek salad is amazing, and the olive oil is authentic. The atmosphere is great, and the service impeccable. A must visit whenever I am in London.

The cafe closed down years ago and the new restaurant opened. You are reading the wrong reviews for this place … stupid google maps. 😳Delicious food and wonderful service. Quick note the website is a different cafe (Dundee) and the number if not a london code is wrong. Hopefully google maps will update soon.

Delicious salads and olive oils

Such a nice cafe! Food is very good and the owners are really caring. The closest to being in Greece whilst in London 😊

Lovely place and lovely people. I tried the quiche and it was very good. I also tried the spinach pie (spanakopita) and it was not as good as the pie. The pastry was hard to chew. The filling was pretty okey though. The salad seemed kind of loveless and a little bit “decorative”.

Wow absolutely gorgeous food . Staff are so lovely. Can’t wait to return, Yamas

This restaurant/cafe is remarkable! Amazing new owners with the most lovely personalities who make it feel like home! Would highly recommend! Food was also delicious, we had the half tray for two and it was incredible!

Amazing family style dinning, shared the braised beef and it was really good! Super friendly owners and a lovely atmosphere. 😊

Extremely nice place, almost like a concept store, best carrot cake I ever had!

Absolutely delicious and super welcoming, a gem.

5/5 recommended. My cousin and I stumbled in after trying a coffee shop around the corner that was too packed. We were looking for a place to work from our laptops for a bit and get a nice coffee. The man who greeted us was warm and kind and the coffee was delicious!! exceeding expectations. I accidentally knocked my cup over and spilled and the gentleman came over to help me clean up and offered to remake my cup for me! Naturally I felt slightly embarrassed, but he made us feel right at home by bringing two little treats after my snafu moment. I felt right at home! And an added bonus- the music is amazing! shazamed multiple songs. Excellent experience!

Such lovely food people and delicious food. Feels like home. Been in london for a week and went here 3 or 4 times.:))

If you truly want to experience authentic Greek food then Byzantium restaurant is the place for you! The service is spotless, the environment warm, cozy and stylish! Thanks to Kalloudis kai Kyriaki who are always great hosts and offer the best quality of food and service - putting customers always first. Soul food and hearty people 💙🧿

I absolutely love this place! The quality of food and coffee is so good. I also love the staff, really talkative and kind people. I highly recommend it :)

Gone are the old plastic chairs and cheap and cheerful wines. The souvlaki wraps have been pensioned off and I’m quite sure that there are no bacon sandwiches available. In their place is a beautifully decorated cafe with a small menu of specials and some pastries. I had a very fine chicken and Greek pasta dish which was made from simple ingredients of the finest quality. The cakes look excellent, and I look forward to trying one after Easter. Certainly I’ll be back.

Tasty food and drinks in a brand new environment full of positive vibes.A great choice of Greek products in the grocery shop section and very friendly staff.

Beautiful spot perfect for lunch or a dinner date with an SO or friends. Incredibly high quality Greek products and cooking (light, fresh, and filling). Strongly recommend.

Amazing place!! Delicious food, ambiance and warm owners!!! Will be back

Cozy place !!!! FANTASTIC GREEK RESTAURANTS!!!!!
