Cafe Laville in City of London, Westminster

Amazing venue with great food and incredible staff. Restaurant opens onto canal. Some small tables outside for drinks (may serve food) whilst waiting for a table.

Excellent restaurant, good service, and incredible prices. I loved where it's located above the canal and outdoors. I recommend it 10 out of 10.

Restaurant is more than half free. We came in 4 person with two children. Ask for Tea, coffe, tiramisu or cake. Owner refuse us, because this is a diner time. I understand IF there will be a line and customers waiting, but there was nobody in tuesday evening. Owner was very rude. It is a good way to run The business, probably they have to much money. Good luck !

Great little place. Cheesecake and applepie were very good. Place gets full fast.

The view was unbelievable. Ceaser Salad was not bad, but the Cappuccino and Tiramisu were super delicious.

Beautiful restaurant over the canal at Little Venice... My friend and I stayed for about 6 hours. Very relaxing overlooking the canal boats going up and down the canal. Fabulous food and service from our waitress and Albert the owner. Food was so delicious and very good portion sizes.... We spent a lot, but we did have 3 bottles of wine and 4 courses each...

Refusing to serve us if we don’t eat (at 4 pm), while being called Café is quite hilarous.

Just had coffee there, and the coffee was good. The view was absolutely gorgeous, and I'd love to go back in spring. However, I can't compliment the service. We were rushed out as the waiter started cleaning our table even though the restaurant wasn't busy and we were still at the table getting ready to leave. It felt because we didn't order food and only had coffee, we received poor service.

Our favorite breakfast spot in Maida Vale! Steak and champagne for breakfast—why not?! Especially when it comes with a beautiful canal view. The vibe is perfect, the food is always on point, and it’s our go-to place for a special morning treat. 🍳 🥩 🥂 ❣️

Beautiful place, just a bit pricey. pasta was really great- quite difficult to get the tables at the end with the view

We had an amazing dinner with my family. The service was really good, and we loved the food especially the 4 cheese pizza. The atmosphere is amazing next to the canal.

Food was delicious, highly recommend the lasagna and tiramisu! Staff are so welcoming and friendly, amazing service, couldn’t recommend it enough!

Friendly staff. The food was good and the view was great. Very peaceful.

Welcome I visited him for a late lunch mid-week The place is fantastic and its atmosphere is fantastic, with a view of the waterway We ordered pesto pizza for 16 pounds And Margherita pizza 15.50 pounds (I think that's what it's called). Very delicious and the service is excellent I highly recommend it 👍

Love this place! Food is always authentic and tasty, atmosphere is always cozy yet vibrant.

A lovely Italian spot with a beautiful view of the canal. The food was fantastic, authentic Italian dishes full of fresh flavors, and the coffee was just as impressive. It can get a bit busy, especially during peak times, but the atmosphere and quality make it well worth the wait. Highly recommend for a relaxed meal with a scenic backdrop!

I went there on a Saturday for a walk-in table and they managed to accommodate us for a quick breakfast although they were fully booked. The focaccia and coffee were amazing and the views from there are incredible. Denise was very friendly and I would definitely be back!

Had breakfast here, not the greatest but decent, however 5 stars for staff members, very friendly and helpful and atmosphere. The view of the canal is so beautiful on a sunny day. My fav place for a Sunday morning breakfast xx

One of the fantastically place to rest with a nice view over the river a really good customer service and these is all impressive points, what about food wise require a massive improvement, steak come grilled burnt with a really delicious taste sous, where prawns are to dried chicken was not bad but still space for improvement, pizza looks to be on cracker crust base, The food preparation in my opinion should reach the juicy stage not cracker’s.

Loved the food, and tiramisu was incredible! Service was amazing, and the ambiance was so lovely. Was informed about all of the halal options without me even asking, they were so kind and attentive the whole time. Strongly recommend!!

Have dined here over many lunches. Always consistent and definitely stands out in the area, although, that is not difficult to achieve! The Italian offering on the menu is very tasty and well prepared. Pasta is al dente and the pasta sauces are subtle and simple, as they should be…standard English fare is also offered, eggs, steak, omelettes, catering to Philistines, too!

Wonderful location and even better pizza! We came here twice while on holiday.

Nice place,good service,good pizza

Absolutely impressive atmosphere and staff was very nice.

A cafe with a beautiful location and view…

The place was really impressive, especially the ambience ,warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, making it a very comfortable spot to spend time. The gentleman who arranged the space for us was exceptionally polite, kind, and accommodating, which made the experience even better. The service throughout our visit was prompt and friendly. As for the food, the pizza was absolutely fantastic , fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The pasta, while decent, didn’t quite match the standard of the pizza and could have been better, but overall, it was still enjoyable. It’s definitely a place I’d visit again, both for the great atmosphere and the lovely service.

A really beautiful view but not so great service, we tried for so long to get attention to order a dessert and more drinks but it was impossible, we ended up just leaving

Visitado en un día de semana muy soleado y tenía una mesa preciosa con vistas a los cursos de agua. Tuvimos una comida principal de gambas reales con una salsa, goujones de bacalao con papas fritas y selección de ensaladas , cohete y una ensalada griega acompañada de un buen cóctel. La comida estaba bien nada especial, bastante caro para todos los platos. El servicio era amable y la cafetería estaba muy ocupada con todas las mesas ocupadas.

Love this place! We arrived on a busy Saturday and were lucky to be seated after about 5 minutes. The staff were amazing and food was great! Not to mention the awesome view of the canal. Will definitely be back

Absolute gem of a restaurant found completely by accident while wandering around Little Venice. Delicious food, fantastic service and a warm, friendly atmosphere - the perfect place to relax and forget the time. Will definitely return and have already recommended.

A particularly bucolic place with quality dishes and pleasant waiters. We particularly enjoyed the view of the canal. £67 for 2 with soft dish and dessert

Stopped in for a drink, dessert and the view. You can't go wrong with any of these. It was busy but we got a seat in less than 10min. Every seat has a view. The staff was pleasant and attentive. Overall making for a memorable experience.

Amazing place with stunning view. Food was great too.

Such a beautiful cafe, good service especially liked Alberto’s customer service.

very nice service, eggcellent food!!!

Kindly found us a table when it was a very busy Sunday, thought we wouldn,t get a seat, we sat outside 10mins which was worth the wait for a window table on a sunny day. Lovely positioned cafe on the Little Venice canal, literally over it. Sea bass, a lot of bones. But a special day enjoyed with my Daughter, so the stars are for being with her

Highly recommended lovely little corner in Little Venice . We had a wonderful sunny breakfast with cute view and the service was amazing as well. We truly appreciate the owner who helped us clean the mess when a lady passing by pushed the two glasses of juices all over our dress 🤣 It was a funny morning 🥲 but joke aside beautiful place! (Try the egg royal with smoked salmon) was heaven on hearth!

The positive here is the location and the canal lookout. The food however is very average and I found my gnocchi pasta sauce to very disappointing.

A well located eaterie on the Edgware road and right over the canal. very accommodating efficient staff. food and wine were good. We will be back. recommended

The location is fantastic..I would go for breakfast or desserts and coffee. The had fantastic Italian desserts with a twist:)

Great place for Italian food after wandering around Little Venice. Service was great and so was the food. Would definitely recommend trying this place. We came around 430p and beat the dinner rush.

Came across London for a drink here - turned away as they only want visitors who order food too. Such a shame, as we’ve eaten here plenty of times. Won’t be back

The breakfast food neither is high quality nor a good quantity for the price you pay. It feels like you pay for the atmosphere above the canal rather than the food itself. Most places serve twice as much food with better quality for half the price. Needless to say I was not happy with my breakfast experience. But the view was nice and the staff was friendly.

The atmosphere is very cozy, and the view of the water creates a special mood. I ordered a steak, and it was perfectly cooked, juicy and flavorful. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. I will definitely be coming back!

Beautifully set dining with incredible views of the canal below. Restaurant sits on a bridge over the canal great for a morning brunch or afternoon repast. Staff very friendly.

Non è stato proprio facile da trovare, fermata metro Edgwarde Rd poi una bella passeggiata attraverso il quartiere, caratteristico tra negozi arabi e turchi. La location è molto carina, un piccolo ristorantino con vetrata che affaccia proprio sul canale. abbiamo mangiato pizza perchè per fare la English breakfast oppure varie focacce si deve ordinare le ore 2. La pizza non era male ma niente di speciale. Non so se la proprietà è italiana , sembravano piu tunisini ma detto questo è stato piacevole. Non credo ci torneri , si può trovare di meglio

This was a really nice place to eat an english breakfast. Fast service and lovely food.

Encantador escenario. Estábamos sentados rápidamente como walk ups y la comida / servicio era genial. Definitivamente volveré, especialmente mientras camino regularmente por el camino de remolque entre Paddington y la calle John’s Wood en verano cuando voy a Lord’s. Lamentablemente descuidé tomar una foto de mi plato.

Beautiful location, lovely macchiato and the staff were so friendly and attentive.

Wonderful and friendly service with great food and stunning view of the canal.

Nice little restaurant overlooking the canal that leads to Little Venice. We were lucky enough to get a table next to the window while the sun was out, definitely a pleasant view. Good service and food, I quite liked my ham and mushroom pizza.

It was the last English coffee I had before leaving London, and I must admit that I loved it SO MUCH! The place is beautiful, and you'll want to stay there forever watching the canal with this view 💕 accompanied by a coffee, of course!

Canal view is amazing, atmosphere and food is good too. Service can be busy. Booking is a must.

Food was good however service is terrible. Very rude and clearly don’t care because they are busy.

Super cute cafe in Little Venice. You can stay there for sunset and enjoy the view. The neighborhood is super cozy and cute. Definitely try to go there for a small break when you walk around. I will come back ! And the staff is super super nice.

Parece un todo en la pared desde la vista de la calle principal, pero es un hermoso invernadero como atmósfera donde se entra. El sándwich de jamón focaccia y Parma era increíble y muy decente! Hicieron un gran trabajo manteniendo la sensación italiana en el lluvioso Londres con las paredes de las ventanas y la claraboya.

The view is great, but the service is terrible. I will not come back.

Ordered the chicken escalope and a burger, both dishes were delicious. Had this spot on my bucket list for a while and managed to secure a table on a beautiful sunny day. Ideal for it as its all glass windows that let the sun shine through.

I don't have much to say about the food, as we were essentially denied access because we only wanted to have tea, coffee with desserts. It was already around 5 PM, and being winter, it was dark outside, so there was no view. We were a group of six and had been walking around the area when it started to rain. We thought it would be a good idea to enjoy some desserts, coffee, and tea in this place. However, the staff was rude. He didn’t ask about a reservation; instead, he just asked if we were dining. When we said we were only having coffee and desserts, he told us we couldn’t just have that. We ended up at Costa! café, where my friend and I had a much better time.

A beautiful cafe serves breakfast and has a beautiful view. The staff are nice and welcoming. It has a water view and is worth a try

Lovely place, amazing view, friendly staff and tasty pizza

We were visiting England and for the day and had some time to spare, so we walked along the canal from Paddington station to this café. We then had morning brunch. The whole area around the café and the canal is super, with some lovely buildings and of course The calm of the water. The café is built over the top of the canal so you can sit by the window and look down. The service was lovely, very quick and efficient. My brunch was poached eggs on toast. That was okay, and very tasty in a functional way but lacked a little in inspiration. No complaint though really.

Everything so good, that's why bussy

Bad carbonara, everything else fine.

Rude very impolite . I came with my friend today to have coffee and desert and the staff with white hair refused, he said you can't get in for coffee only you are allowed breakfast or lunch which is stupid the place is called cafe . We left, he has very rude behaviour and his voice was loud ,everyone in the cafe heard the conversation. It was really embarrassing.

I was there the end of june 2023. I didn't have a reservation just before the beginning of a very busy time 4 pmish, yet they found a table for me, foreign diner. I had the minestrone soup (homemade) served with a generous portion of delicious focaccia bread, white wine, grilled prawns over greens with fresh tomatoes, tiramasu served in a chocolate shell cup, cappuccino. One of the best meals in my life! Simple but delicious. Everything was delicious, generous portions, the tiramasu was outrageously delicious! Service great, they didn't rush me even though was getting very busy. Friendly staff and other patrons. Had a nice chat with my table neighbors which they initiated. They were locals dining there after a big polo match and very fun and friendly and interesting. Fabulous ambiance over the Regents Canal in "Little Venice" in London, UK. I can hardly wait to return. When I visit London again I will do everything I can to return for as many meals as I can. They have pizza, too, which smelled delicious. Great views even from my table in the back. The all-glass enclosure including the ceiling, made the ambiance even more delightful. The prices were reasonable for a fabulous meal in London with such fabulous ambiance, considering I had soup, bread, prawn entree, tiramasu, wine, cappuccino. Great area to stroll around. Convenient to buses and not too far to underground tube. Fabulous!

The location is only perfect in this place. I’m regularly having a coffee when I pass in the area. I’ve been that place last week approximately 6-7 customers was sitting on the table. The owner or Manager approached to me then he asked me what you want. I said just take away a cup of coffee. He said we are very busy, sorry we can’t give you any coffee or hot drinks… This is very rude approach. I can’t tolerate this type of approach. There is thousands of different places making coffee not only you guys. I’m not planning to visit this place again until owner change. Note for Owner: We are living in London. Here is not type of Arab countries. I’m inviting you a peaceful and fair business advice nobody will visit your place if people is thinking like me.

Excellent spot, amazing food and incredible staff. Highly recommend - Falimindirit! Besnik

Cute little cafe overlooking the canals, honestly surprised me by just how beautiful the views were! The vibes were good and the staff was kind. Thank you for having me 🙏

Perfect spot for a relaxing dinner!

The cafe has some pseudo italian dishes and a mediocre pizza. The pasta farfalle al salmone are exaggeratedly salty and the pasta is definitely not handmade. Desserts are acceptable.

I came here for lunch, everything is delicious, I liked everything

I love coming to this place especially during spring/summer time because the view over the canal is lovely

Have been coming here for 14 years before and after starting the family and absolutely love the place.

Had a quick coffee break. Had a coffee and tiramisu. Coffee was smooth and strong. Tiramisu was delicious, it had a good balance of cream and biscuit, and had a nice, not too strong coffee flavour and was not soggy. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Atmosphere was calm and peaceful, with a lovely view of the canal.

Amazing place for brunch!! The portion are very generous, the food really good and the staff is super friendly!! Definitely will come again

Thanks a lot for Albert he is so nice and sweet When he learned that we were Arabs, he said, “I will make you pasta with chicken, but it was once made with pork.” Respectful and cooperative, do not miss it. 🩵

Be careful if you use public Wi-Fi @cafelaville maybe you can equip your Wi-Fi with a password in the future to give hackers no chance next time!

Table of 3 ordered coffee, pasta, pizza, and their delicious tiramisu. Their coffee was so tasty and their tiramisu portion size is very good and best of all its halal. The middle table next to the window had such stunning views of the sunset!

Amazing steak, seared to perfection. The tiramisu was unique and tasty.

The neighborhood in London isn’t the best, but I absolutely loved the pasta at this Italian restaurant. It’s located near Little Venice, which adds to its authentic charm. Be sure to ask about their daily specials. I had linguine with king prawns that day, and it was fantastic. The service was incredibly quick, the waitstaff were friendly, and the atmosphere was wonderfully cozy.

One of my favourite places for brunch in London!

Lovely place for a breakfast and morning cafe, with a beautiful view.

Absolutely charming restaurant with great service. Lovely Italian dishes, desserts and good coffee. Nice place to meet friends and eat good food.

Delicious coffee and tiramisu at moderate prices, worth a try

Best tiramisu ever had. Good service too

The café is beautiful in terms of location and in terms of coffee and beautiful desserts. It is worth a try and one of the best places I have been to in London.

It is a wonderful cafe, made more beautiful by its location on the waterway. It is a luxurious and comfortable place. The varieties of food and drink are varied and the service is excellent. Black coffee tastes very delicious. I enjoyed sitting in this place and had a very enjoyable time. I will visit again, God willing

Esto fue a poca distancia del apartamento en el que me alojé para las vacaciones. Gran servicio, incluso mejor comida, debe probar su tiramisú.

Awesome One of the best pizza ever tried. And love the ambience.

The place is nice, nothing more

Very nice place, with an excellent view of the canal.

We went for breakfast because we saw the nice views of the water and the good reviews, however, we thought it was a bit disappointing and expensive. Quality of the food was not amazing. They included a service charge of £5 pp. The views and the ambience were very good.

Great place and amazing view, highly recommended 💗

Very friendly and cooperative staff

The cappuccino is delicious, the tiramisu too, the treatment is good and the atmosphere is beautiful, all respect 🌹

Ran a little late, but they reserved my place. That felt special. Pene Arrabiata, loved it! To top it off, the cheesecake was even better! Loved the atmosphere and experience.

One of our favourite stops in London! View is unbeatable and a true mom & pop shop with great service.

A casual Italian restaurant located on the canal in Paddington. Reservations are required for seats by the window overlooking the canal. I went there after dinner, so I had coffee and dessert. The tiramisu is packed in a cookie cup and is delicious. The apple pie was also moist and flavored with cinnamon. The other menu items also looked delicious.

This caffee it's a marvellous place to relax and forget about stress. The view over the canal is fabulous. You might have to wait to get a table next to the window but it is worth it.
