Half Cup in Camden

Food was excellent, breakfast roll was very nice. All the food I saw being served looked delicious. My only gripe was having to wait 30min before being seated. Oh and some bloke coming out the loo nearly took my head off with the door due to where I was sat. I would visit again however.

Great place for brunch, the place is not very big but very warm There were 2 of us and we had the Half Cup full English breakfast and the Turkish eggs It was really very good and plentiful, the dishes arrived very quickly and the staff was very friendly I recommend

Good food, friendly service right in the heart of London

On day 3 in London we were looking for another new breakfast place. We found one near our hotel via Google Maps. When we arrived we saw a line. It would take 20 minutes so we decided to wait. We already received the card so that we could find out in advance what we would like and I think also so that the flow is a little higher, so that the rest in the queue would also have their turn. If you sit outside you can literally see the queue, so you will be looked away when you have finished your food, but that won't bother you inside. You can just eat there in peace and quiet and they are not in a rush. However, they are quick to serve. In the end it was more than worth the wait. The food was very tasty and looked very nice too. The chicken and waffles were extremely large and more than enough! The lunch stall is decorated with beautiful murals. I would definitely come back here if I go to London again. I would make a reservation if possible, so you don't have to wait outside. Legend: 1) Terrible! I don't recommend it, I will never come back! 2) Too bad, below my expectations, I won't come again. 3) Ok, nothing wrong with that, but nothing special, nice for once. 4) Fine, worth coming back. 5) Excellent! I recommend, I will definitely come back!

Very nice atmosphere, and the menu offers great choice of sweet, salty and mixed dishes ! The portions are generous, and the service was really attentive. There is quite a queue outside, but we were lucky as we were just 2 people. Highly recommended!

Great brunch today, with friends.

A friend who lived in London told me that if I want brunch, I should go to Half Cup instead of going anywhere else. Chicken waffles were amazing!! Seriously delicious. But when I ate this for brunch, I felt guilty... haha, but it's delicious. Everything is delicious.

Most overrated brunch restaurant in all of London. (And I have visited 100+ at this point.) ‘Poached’ eggs were BOILED. Zero runny yolk factor. Hashbrowns tasted tasted like frozen ones from McCain (although I think these taste better). Hollandaise sauce was bland and had no real flavour (so was a yellow gloop serving no purpose). Food arrived cold, I sent it back, and they brought me the exact same plate again… (Hopefully having not spat in it for all we know.)

Fab coffee, great gluten free hash browns and a huge portion of halloumi too!

One of the best brunch I’ve had hands down. My only regret was I had plan to do some rockclimbimg afterwards, so having to restrain from devouring the whole portion was painful. Despite the fried chicken waffle being one of the best I’ve had, the savory pancake my wife ordered was divine and I was stealing from her plate the whole time.

Nice atmosphere, coffee and food presentation. However food wasn’t that great , flavours didn’t really match and my chickpeas felt quite stale/old. Service wasn’t fantastic either as it was very busy and staff seemed to be all over the place

It was really delicious and because it was a famous restaurant, there were a lot of people and there was a wait.

Totally nice cafe with a very tasty breakfast.

Sooo cozy place with so well cooked food!! The service is amazing and so is the atmosphere. In the higher price range but worth every penny.

Fantastic in all ways! The salmon bagel and oreo toast was delicious 🥞

We are locals who have visited half cup many times over the past few years. We normally love coming here because the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive! Sadly we had a really disappointing visit today. The lady who served us had no customer service skills and looked quite frankly fed up. I found a hair in my food (which wasn’t mine as my hair was tired up and longer than the one I found) and decided to flag it up. No apology was issued whatsoever but they offered to make the dish again for me. When it came the sausage was not hot in both dishes and I’d been given the ends of the tomatoes(see picture). When asked how our meal was at the end I gave some honest feedback. Again, no real attempt to acknowledge what I’d said but a mumbled response that they would ‘let the chef know’. When we asked for the bill we were completely forgotten about (despite the cafe being nearly empty) and had to ask again to pay. No discount was applied in the bill (which was maybe expected - given we’ve been before and had a meal taken off the bill when some eggshell was found). The prices also seem to go up every time we visit. When you pay £16.50 for a breakfast bun you should expect at least hot food! Overall really disappointing! Normally love this place but feels as if the staff were untrained and a little bit rude.

Nice breakfast, but expensive and a long wait …

Very nice food and friendly staff!!

Unique menu items - all delish and well presented. Anas also enjoyed his meal 💯

Such a delicious vegetarian full English

Amazing place! Good food and very good service

Taste 10/10 Recommends Hash Benedict smoked salmon. I saw chicken&waffles looking so goood with a big portion too Service 10/10 a little long wait time as there are a lot of people but the staffs are lovely. def worth the wait Cleanness 10/10 Portion with the price 6/10 Vibe 10/10

Extremely creative and fun menu, and delicious food and coffee!

Absolutely brilliant place for breakfast, with amazing food. Try the avocado on corn bread, really yum!!

We were looking for a good breakfast spot in the vicinity of St. Pancras, and this place was quite the find! I had their seasonal corn & herb pancakes, my friend had avocado on cornbread, and the kiddos enjoyed oreo french toast. Everything we had was divine! The space was bright and clean. Service was very friendly. Definitely a worthy stop if you're in the area.

For your avocado sourdough toast and english breafkast brunch, this is a very good option close to St Pancras and St Cross station. We went for the english breakfast which was very tastefull and the poached eggs were made perfectly. The service was super super friendly. They have small lovely terrace at the front. We did not make a reservation before and walked in (Thursday at 11am).

Super delicious, you have to wait in line for breakfast here, but it's worth it. Something for everyone, totally comfortable and you don't need lunch anymore

Always full of people....a clue...... We enjoyed ourselves, the salmon bagel was very good, the tea perfect, the waitress smiling and friendly. A very very good time.....

Extremely disorganized line, they don’t keep track of who is actually standing in line versus those who just joined it randomly.

huge portions for the price, best matcha I've had with a small wait - but the server saw I was using a walking stick and came out and immediately offered me a seat whilst I waited which I really appreciated.

To offer Vegan and Gluten free options then, offer these please. I ordered a breakfast expecting at least vegan sausage and gluten free bread. But no, I got 4 slices of tomato, Luke warm beans, 4 hash browns. No GF bread. Also received a half avocado that was soft and past its best. Very disappointing and not worth £17:50! I have had better breakfast at Morrisons and £10 cheaper! Icomplained about the small half avocado and the waiter brought me another past it's best piece. I questioned the GF and vegan options and asked on this occasion to be given some hallumi - which I do have sometimes. Anyway after speaking to the Manager, I got a discount between £ 3-4. Please do not say GF and Vegan options available if you cannot supply them.

Fantastic traditional English breakfast! Great service! Bacon was so tasty!

Disclaimer: Unless you go very early in the morning, you will encounter a long queue It’s worth the wait though, the menu is unique and all dishes we ordered were delicious

I haven't eaten here just go for coffee but a really lovely cafe close to St Pancras and the British Library

Nice coffee place with good food and great service, I can here due to recommendations, and I sure recommend this place

The food was absolutely delicious. We had some French Toast and an English breakfast. It was quite pricey but we didnt need to have a lunch after eating here. So it's absolutely worth it. However be prepared for a waiting line if you go there on a crowded time.

Family was visiting London and looking for a good breakfast. Everything very fresh and well presented. We sat outside in front. Service was great. My kids ordered the pork belly which was good but not as moist as desired. The rest of the food was good. Scrambled eggs a must.

Typical place for an English brunch. Zen atmosphere and top service

Very good brunch, impeccable service. Great location if you need to catch the train right after! Don’t hesitate to go there early on the weekend because you often have to wait 10-20 minutes before getting a table. The choices are very varied, sweet and savory but also drinks with matcha. Finally, the prices are correct for London especially with the quantities served. I had an English Breakfast: a delight 😋 The only small negative point is that the place is quite noisy.

Hearty and delicious brunch! Pleasant service and very nice atmosphere. I recommend this place 👍👍👍🙂

We had a very early flight so the English breakfast was just what we needed. There was a bit of a wait time but we knew it was a very popular place. The atmosphere was great and we had a great time

Excellent food, service was good but with systems down, it took a long time for even the coffee drinks to come out. The Oreo french toast was phenomenal, waffles amazing and the English breakfast very good. Careful with the chai drinks, extremely spicy, but good flavor. Servers were very nice, but could not out-nice the frustration with how long the kitchen took to prepare drinks and food. We arrived at open and it was packed, which is always a good sign, but I recommend asking if the systems are up and running before actually sitting down.

The food is very good and the art on the wall is amazing .😋

A little expensive for a traveler from Taiwan, but delicious of course

Nice coffee and fresh food but quite expensive… an orange juice and espresso £7.20 same for a smoothie…

The English breakfast is legit and the oreo french toast is amazing. I saw a lot of people order the chicken waffles as well. Definitely worth visiting.

Its a cute Café but i wouldn't recommend the poached eggs at all. The prices are way too high for what you get and you basically pay for the location.

Simply Amazong. GREAT FRESH and delicious breakfast.

Tough whaffle, but beautifully decorated. Not really worth the money, but the staff was lovely.

The most impeccable oat latte out there! No sugar needed, perfectly creamy topped with an aesthetically appealing design. Cannot recommend it enough

Lovely place, but always a long queue

Really good place except the “Turkish Eggs” how do you have “Greek yoghurt” and bacon in a dish called Turkish Eggs!

Coffee place located near St Pancras station. It offers a wide variety of dishes and options for coeliacs, vegans, vegetarians. Exquisite food. Friendly and very helpful staff. I recommend arriving a little before the opening because there is always a long queue.

Got a carrot cake and Korean fried chicken; both were absolutely amazing!! Would definitely go back again!

Nothing to say, very good, good atmosphere, affordable price and friendly and popular employee, lots of people

I like this place, I often forget about it but the other day I visited and was happy to see that they have changed the menu. I had the Chicken and Waffles and it was lovely. Initially l, I was worried about the coating being to much and there not being enough chicken. But even the breast was nicely coated. My only issue would be the sauce, was slightly congealed but not a deal breaker. I would recommend and not too pricey.

I went there on a Sunday at 8:50 a.m. and there was already a line forming outside. Very popular and rightly so because the dishes are generous, appetizing and good. I didn't appreciate having my plate removed barely a second after finishing it, a sign that my presence was a little too long for the staff's liking. And suffice to say that in terms of the price of the dishes - the increase in a few years is incredible - if I want to stay 5 minutes longer after having finished my plate I will stay 5 minutes longer. Note that it is quite noisy (small space + lots of people + loud music).

Amazing food and service, also has good gluten free options!

The cup isn’t half full at this place it’s overflowing at the brim with flavour. Easy one of the best breakfasts I have had despite the lack of black pudding, which is something I would highly recommend you add on as an extra if people want it they pay for the privilege extra as I understand it’s a northern thing. Great quality produce provided and excellent cooking capability. If you are looking for a good breakfast to eat look no further. It’s slightly expensive however you get the quality to back it up so worth it if you are itching for a Fry up. I went on a Monday @ 9:30am can’t vouch for other days but the chef working today did an incredible job. The 🍅 was surprisingly incredible, never had one cooked as good as that before ever. I would also recommend tea pots for the tea as you can’t beat that classic tea room experience that a tea pot brings to the table. (I did order beans also)

No form of air conditioning so not equipped to deal with weather above 15 degrees. Nonchalant staff at best with extremely rude and dismissive redhead, giving me the side eye and saying have a nice day to customers but snatching the card machine and walking away from us without saying so much as a thank you etc. Service charge completely unwarranted but felt too anxious to ask for it to be removed in fear of her arguing with us. Food was okay but well overpriced and tried to charge us to add syrup on the dry chicken which was advertised to have already had it. Fried egg was inedible. Overall do not recommend. Not LGBT friendly in my opinion.

Breakfast was okay. Coffee was very good. Service was very nice as well.

Great little brunch place, chicken waffles are great!

Lovely breakfast but unfortunately tainted by the lack of baby changing facilities. Changing a baby on the busy pavement outside was not ideal and I’m sure the people next to us wouldn’t have appreciated us changing our child’s poonami next to them. At £20 per head this should be provided.

Perfect place to eat after arriving in London.

The Oreo French toast was great. As was the iced milk chocolate mocha.

The avocado toast 16 pounds! a choreo

Questa mattina una splendida scoperta! Una colazione salata da leccarsi i baffi! Ottima anche quella dolce! Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di incontrare un’ addetta al servizio tavoli italiana che per noi è’ stata di grande aiuto sia per la scelta, il servizio e L’ accoglienza! Da ritornare.

Nice cafe and efficient staff. The issue is the choices and price rather than the quality of the food. The English breakfast (there was only one option) came as streaky bacon, no sausage, 3 big hash browns (I like a hash brown but nobody needs 3), grilled tomatoes two big mushrooms and one egg on a giant bit of ok sour dough bread and cheap baked beans. £17 was ridiculously over priced. It is clearly a tourist magnet due to TA status and would not be out of place with other average expensive breakfast joints in New York. Coffee was about £4. Better breakfasts within 400 yards for around half the price.

Gorgeous atmosphere and food. Really nice breakfast options for two vegetarians.

A little cramped but the food completely made up for it. The staff were friendly and everyone enjoyed their meal. I do think they could do with more gluten free options as there was only the one brunch option when I visited, however there are plenty of meat free and vegan options for other people. Overall, a lovely place to go for brunch but do keep in mind that you may have to wait for a table and there can be a queue :)

Had to wait in line for a short bit as the place was busy midday on a weekday. The biscoff coffee was great and not too sweet. They also used oat milk instead of dairy. Also tried the Chicken and Waffles (with siracha mayo and an egg) and Green eggs fry up (nan and broccolini). Both were delicious! Good place for coffee and brunch food. Lots more on the menu we would like to try at some point. Would recommend.

Amazing food, location and excellent location.

Die Auswahl, das Service und das Ambiente dieses Lokals sind vorzüglich und nur zu empfehlen. Gleich in der Nähe von King Cross beziehungsweise St. PANKRAZ International gelegen, fußläufig perfekt zu erreichen, mit kleinem Gastgarten. Preislich recht hoch!

Very good address. We went there for breakfast. The pastries are good. The strawberry matcha was not to my taste, the balance between the two needs to be reviewed in my opinion. The service was very pleasant. Consider coming yourself or making a reservation because there may be a wait.

The brunch and coffee were delicious. You may have to wait in line to get in, there are a lot of people.

Cute little place with good food great coffee and very nice staff.

Only two Minutes walk from St Pancras Station. We had an excellent breakfast and enjoyed the friendly staff taking care of everyone and everything. We love the place and will definitely return.

Cool place ! Always go for my cortado & somethin’ else .

Was delicious but I think the brioche was a bit dry. The service was great

Had the Oreo french toast. It was lovely but a bit dry. The dirty chai was nice

Went for brunch and the service and food was amazing ❤️❤️❤️

At Half Cup Café near King's Cross, I experienced a brunch that was nothing short of heavenly. My order of hash browns topped with smoked salmon, eggs, and avocado was a delightful symphony of flavors. Each bite was a perfect combination of savory and creamy goodness, leaving me craving more. But the real star of the show was the Biscoff coffee with whipped cream. This indulgent treat was a revelation – the rich, velvety coffee combined with the sweet, caramelized flavor of Biscoff and topped with a generous dollop of whipped cream was an absolute delight. It was without a doubt one of the best things I've tasted during my time in London, and worth every calorie. Despite the café's popularity, the wait was surprisingly short. Even though there was a queue outside, my friend and I, a table for two, only had to wait for about 10 minutes before being seated. The line moved quickly, so there's no need to fret if you see a crowd outside. Trust me, the delicious food and cozy atmosphere inside make it well worth the wait. Half Cup Café is a must-visit for anyone looking for a delicious and indulgent brunch experience in London.

The food was delicious, and so was the feeling too.

Awesome place. Great food and great service!! A must go place if you're in London

Excellent breakfast, one of the best breakfast I ever have in the UK. The size and the taste of the food is great. You can sit outside when the sun come out. Make sure you go early, if not you might need to wait for around 5-10 minutes, but it is definitely worth it.

The cafe here is very good. But you might have to wait for a table. during the day As it was quite busy. I ordered a matcha latte and Oreo french toast, which were very good.

It was highly recommended by British friends. It provides a very typical British breakfast. The breakfast selection is rich and extensive, the portion is large, and the seasoning is accurate and delicious, but it lacks a bit of distinctiveness. I ordered a traditional full English breakfast that day, which included beans with tomato sauce, scrambled eggs, toast, bacon, hash browns, and tomatoes. They were all cooked to perfection. There were two to three portions of each item on average, which was quite filling. I also ordered hot chocolate coffee, which was not too sweet and had a decent roasted flavor. When I arrived at the store after 10 o'clock that day, I still had to queue up, and the flow of people was very busy. After entering the store, there were still many customers waiting outside the door.

BEST EGGS BENEDICT IVE HAD IN AWHILE!!!! & SUPERB SERVICE

Mega sweet bran coffee. Delicious food and drinks Mega friendly staff who are also patient with language barriers

Amazing coffee house. We had coffee and a sandwich ... both were delicious. The staff were super friendly and seemed to have built up a good following of locals ... always a good sign. Great place to grab on the go or chill with a perfect coffee

This was a nice little find during a 1- night stop nearby. The eggs and sourdough were delicious, with very yellow yolks. It's a big serving. Good coffee and superb homemade strawberry jam (I had to ask for this, at an extra charge).

Specifically rating the Oreo French Toast meal. It was very dry, not really good, not sure why it's on the menu, should probably offer a syrup to pour, and make the bread itself a bit more airy. It was as if someone who didn't know what a French toast was, and only knew what a toast was tried to make this

Amazing food but too long wait.. it took an hour from waiting in the queue to getting the food

Amazing chicken waffle but very slow service. Thankfully they made it up offering coffees on the house 🙂

My first stop in London. It was around 9.30am in the morning, I arrived to find the cafe full. Too bad there wasn't anywhere inside for customers to wait for a table so I had to stand outside near the door and that area was not covered. The wait was short though as I was seated in about 15 minutes. Servers were very cheerful and friendly, service superb as they made sure to take care of all tables in the proper seating sequence. They are very accomodative to solo diners, and will not ask to move to a solo spot just to make room for a group. But that said, they are still very effective in sitting the customers. I had the Hash Benedict with add-on tomatoes, and it was delicious! It was pure bliss to enjoy a warm breakfast in a bustling environment along with the locals. Thank you very much for making my first stop in London a pleasantly memorable one.

Half cup has been a great discovery. I was looking for a decent place to have breakfast and I have found a great one! The atmosphere is quiet and warm. The food is delicious and the coffee was great, and pleas keep in mind that as an Italian, coffee matters!

Delicious breakfast, I highly recommend. Friendly setting and delicious food

Terrible service. We came on a Friday around 11:30am and there was a short queue outside. The moment we sat down at our table, a waitress comes and asks if we were ready to order. We had not been given any menus in the queue so we asked for a few minutes to have a look. Not even 2 minutes later the same waitress comes back and asks if we are ready. We tell her no and ask for a few more minutes to decide, and she rolls her eyes and sighs before walking away. We were bummed as this place has great reviews and was looking forward to trying the food, but the service put us off. We left without ordering anything. At least queue was quick, less than 15 minutes for a table of 4.

First time I’ve tried chicken waffles and they live up to the hype. Portion size was great, the maple with the fried chicken was 👌

Waited ages to be asked what I wanted to order after being taken to my seat, ordered the full English and a pot of tea, no tea pots in the capital of England ok why not, next the full English was not a full English unless somehow it has changed now and we should not expect any sausages or black pudding or normal bacon, the attempt to turn a full English was a let down, tomatoes, half bacon, egg on sour dough beans and hash browns(which seem to be what ever meal consists off judging on other peoples plates) at least the food was ok for taste, tomatoes was placed on a hot pan 5o quick sear bit not cooked egg was salty, shame really
