Had our morning coffee and a small breakfast almost every day, while on our trip. A small and cozy place with many options to choose from. The coffee and food were amazing and delicious. Wished it had a larger space inside to sit and enjoy my coffee on the busier days.

Currently in Gail’s as a first time visitor previous review of abrupt staff by other reviewers is accurate plus I will add staff are miserable. Sourdough toast not toasted much, butter rock hard, jam like water no evidence of any fruit whatsoever. I now suspect why the porridge was sold out at 9.00 am. The coffee is nothing to write home about - the whole experience was poor. At these prices, poor service and almost no attention to detail I think Gail’s for people who are not really discerning.

En la verdadera moda del Hobbit me detuve aquí para un segundo desayuno. Latte helado: café suave, sin amargor. Pastelería: una pajita de queso humilde que estaba llena de sabor y ligera como una pluma. Tanto es así que no creo que esto realmente cuente como el segundo desayuno. Personal: amable, eficiente, paciente con personas en la cola que no podían decidir qué delicia elegir. Basta de asientos, baño limpio.

I went to him twice, the first time I had a reasonable almond croissant The second time, I ordered a cheese croissant and confirmed that I wanted a cheese croissant When the order came, it contained pork, and I asked to change it and they refused, knowing that it is clear the reason for my refusal, which is that my religion does not allow me to eat this type. However, the seller was very rude in the response. He said, “You have paid, so we can’t return it.” The simplest thing was to apologize for the mistake. Definitely give it a try. It is not repeated and there are many options in London that I did not stop at.

02. 08. 2024 I think the lady had a bad night or was simply very unwell. Kindness 0. The counter still had about 20 products, it was almost empty. I bought a roll with feta and spinach. I don't know what the hell non-chewable sticks were inside and spinach leaves that I had to spit out because they were too hard. Since the prices are enormous, the quality of the products leaves much to be desired. Totally disappointed and unsatisfied. I'm definitely not going back!

Stop somewhere. The cakes were very good. But we ordered two lattes, a scone and another small cake. The sign for scones said cream and jam, which we didn't get. When we went up and asked for it, we were told that it was extra, but we were lucky and were graciously allowed to get it for free today. When we had reached half way through the food and the coffee still hadn't arrived, while people who had come after us had had their coffee, we stood up and found out that they had forgotten us. Also, we had to pay extra to eat on site, which we did when we also needed to use the toilet, only to find it out of order. Also, the clerk behind the counter was very angry, rude and arrogant, and seemed very indifferent to the mistakes she made

The restaurant itself is quite charming, but my experience was unfortunately tarnished by a particularly unpleasant interaction with one of the staff members. I requested a spinach pie, only to be told that it was no longer available. However, just five minutes later, I noticed the same item being served to another customer. Additionally, there were dishes left on my table that I asked to be cleared, but the staff member completely ignored my request. He was neither welcoming nor polite, which left me feeling angry and disappointed. I had hoped for a much better experience, but the poor service overshadowed the otherwise nice ambiance of the place.

I was happy to see a Gail's not far from my hotel, having had a pleasant memory of my previous trip to Pimlico, I even abandoned the free hotel breakfast to eat porridge at Gail's. I first came across a waiter who barely spoke English, I understand that there are a lot of Japanese in the neighborhood, but still...then the manager(?) without smiling, came to act as interpreter, with a haughty air (because he works in Marylebone?!) paradoxically the whole thing reminds me more of a pho restaurant where, as Ali Wong says, you're emotionally abused but you still go there for the good pho lol , except this time, the scone was cold! In short, this type of service would shock me less at pho 13, but something doesn’t feel right here at Gail’s. And the WiFi didn't work!

Food is great, as any Gail’s, but this venue never cleans up their tables, and most of servers just ignore clients while they finish chatting. I used to come daily and had asked to warm up a bit my scones and never been an issue, but this time the server not only ignored me for a while but also said she couldn’t do it, in such an unwelcome way that I decided to leave and never coming back again. As a hospitality worker, I’m very disappointed. Go to Pret next door and avoid this venue, same food quality but outstanding service and better price.

I made a police report as the manager said the police have to request the cct footage. The police have contacted them and they have REFUSED to hand it over !!! Shame on you Gail’s.

We came to Gail’s today when we couldn’t find a reservation for afternoon tea. Boy am I glad we did! I really wanted to try a biscuit with clotted cream and jam and I LOVED it! It was so delicious, I plan to go back for more tomorrow! The biscuit is perfect and their cream and jam combo is seriously delicious. I have been reminiscing about eating it all day long! I also had the Parmesan chicken sandwich, the bun was delicious, the chicken was well prepared, seasoned nicely and had a great semi-spicy sauce on it. I was really surprised how delicious it was and would order it again. My husband had the ham quiche which he enjoyed and said the brownie finger was a “better than normal” brownie which for him is a great compliment because he’s quite the brownie connoisseur and usually restaurant brownies fall flat. Basically, if you’re thinking about going here, do it! But go early, I got the last scone of the day shortly before 3pm.

Wow! Having visited this establishment in Didsbury, we were we excited to have breakfast here . Unfortunately, you could’ve used the sourdough to build a small town house…… sizeable yes, however, I needed a chisel and hammer to get into it……. It’s a bit grubby inside also…. No one wipes the tables …. The loo didn’t look like it had, had a good clean either. Great coffee….. very undercooked bacon and crazily rock solid bread……. It was actually funny 🙈 Probs ok for a coffee takeout….. NB they don’t do the syrups….. NB I’m writing this from the dentist…. My bill is on the way 😂

I come to Gail’s as a regular but most of the branches, including this one, has very poor cleanliness, leaving customers having to clean their own tables from previous customers’ trash before using. The place is filthy, tables never cleaned with coffee stains on it, bread crumbs on the floor. Proper hygiene & cleanliness should be a bare minimum for a big food company/branch like this.

Coffee and pastries are in line with the standard Gail’s brand. However, the staff is hit and miss in terms of service. The most recent experience involved a lady who was rude and shouted at customers as she was not happy to be working on the till taking orders (she preferred washing dishes). It seems like she was taking out some internal discrepancies between staff on its customers. Disappointing, rude service.

Dear Gail's, You promised to follow up on this from previous reviews from other customers, but I encountered the same issues this morning. Unoccupied used and untidy tables outside - not a staff member insight to clean up and make presentable for customers. I observed for the entire 30mins I sat to eat a meal. A meal which payment was processed for me by the most unwelcoming and rude staff member. Two stars were given because the lady who made me the coffee was very pleasant - I guess she observed my previous treatment, and it was her way of apologising for her teammate. I frequent the Blackheath and Soho branches, and service is always impeccable. Seymour Place needs to follow on their example. I'm so annoyed!
