Hard Rock Café in City of London, Westminster

Great place for Rock memorabilia

Just a great time drinks were good food was perfect one day I might get back

I had an amazing breakfast at Hard Rock Cafe – it was super delicious! The food was top-notch, with great portions and everything cooked to perfection. A special mention goes to the staff, who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Vesna, in particular, stood out with her warmth and excellent service, making our experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a fantastic breakfast and a great atmosphere.

If someone likes rock, they must visit this place

BEST DAY EVER went to London for first time met a guy called Alex he was the best took pictures with us give us free refill and let us keep plastic cups also the food and music was the best I recommend this restraunt 5 STARS 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Great food, great music, great service. First ever hard rock so has a museum next to it that you get free entry to if you eat here.

The best Hardrock we've been to Gurdy was absolutely fantastic and the food was great.

The food was, as always, very good. The service was very friendly and made sure that everything was always in order for us.

£9 for a 0.5 liter beer is just too much. Regardless of whether it is the legendary “Hard Rock” chain or not. 18€ for a gin and tonic. We are in London, yes, but there is a much better AND CHEAPER way!

We didn't have a reservation, so we waited at the bar for a maximum of 20 minutes and enjoyed a drink. Otherwise just reserve.

Great food, cool service and great ambience

Great hard rock cafe near park Lane. Food waa great and the vault was fantastic to visit. The shop is big too

The food was very good and it was great

It's OK. Classic hard rock, nothing amazing.

Definitely have at least one coffee. Reservations must be made for food.

Outstanding! Came here with a deal and theatre and it was very good! Decided to have a cocktail which was large and nice and kept the glass for £4 Started with the sharing nachos platter! Hands down the best nachos I've ever had! Tasty zesty really good! Then burger and chips very nice also! The service was very quick and the vibe and lay out with the rock memorabilia was awesome 👌

Wonderful welcome, great seating and music, amazing staff, our waiter DJ Alex made it a great experience for us a family. Food is sooo good and well priced. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back, thanks all!

Empty house, but to drink coffee we have to sit outside (in November). After 30mins somebody told us that outside is self-service. Yeah. Sorry, but no. You can do way better.

You definitely have to be here!😉🤩💪✌️

The concept of Hard Rock café is known and still works well 👍 The decor is very detailed and presents real prestigious pieces. The only downside that kept me from giving it 5 stars: the soundtrack, too loud, lacks Hard Rock. Too much pop, disco and funk...Personally, I want more Rock, metal and big sound more consistent with the name of the restaurant.

Very good food and perfect service.

Simply overwhelming, great food, very friendly staff, super clean place, when I'm back in London I'll definitely come back.

really good service, good service, good food. It's a nice place to eat. You can hear a lot of good music and they then get Five stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Hard Rock Café was considered. Perfect as always!

Worst Hard rock seen. The staff took almost half hour to bring the menu, left us on the table outside, and tables were available inside. Terrible staff. I will never come back.

Friendly staff, good food!Cool unique experience in the world's first Hard Rock Cafe!

Being the original one comes with certain expectations. It is awesome to see you guys still set the standard what HardRockCafe is about. I was alone and asked for a table. As it was pretty busy a table was unavailable, but..... I was invited to sit at the foodcounter. I had an amazing afternoon and felt like a v.i.p.! Cheeseburger and Long Island were as you want them to be, the loviest waitress ever convinced me to have the apple (It's home made!!) dessert, so I did. No regrets. The entire staff is truly friendly, special shout out to the 2 ladies in white, and seem to be proud of where they work. LOVE ALL, SERVE ALL.

What can I Say ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I think that says it all ! Thank You Team Hardrock❤️

Impeccable service, with warm and accommodating front of house staff. The food was immaculate and cooked to order with generous portion sizes, even for the price. Certainly a spot to eat for an occasion or event, but well worth a visit. Music memorabilia almost becomes an added bonus, the food alone is enough of a draw.

THE original... always worth a visit! Meets all expectations

There is a cozy atmosphere in the lovingly furnished Hard Rock Cafe. It was two guests' birthdays and the whole café sang a serenade with the staff there. You are seen as a guest here and are not processed quickly, quickly. Staff was super friendly. The food was worlds better than the Hard Rock Cafe on Picadelly. There was a mass processing there and the food wasn't good there, even though we had some of the same food as in the other cafe. If again, then only in the 1st Hard Rock Cafe London.

Got a bad table with a lot of people around standing at the bar so we got jackets and rompers in the food, one got some cold food and. Got food and drink at different times on the table, so some had almost eaten their food when the last one got food.

Average meal not exceptional, horrible wait even though I had a skip-the-line reservation and the waitress who was very friendly, the rest of the staff especially at the entrance, very average....

Thomy Gunn Band would like to thank the HRC team for the great service and delicious food! Rock on!

We popped in here for a drink to end the night. While it was quite busy, we were able to get a seat at the bar. I’m so glad we did. Allesandro and Chris were absolutely wonderful and kept us entertained all night. Allesandro made sure we were all set and kept up with fun conversation. We’ll definitely pop in here again on our next trip to London.

Classic Hard Rock Café, the smallest of those visited, in an area that is not very busy in the evening. The evening we passed by (Saturday) it was not possible to dine unless you made a reservation. We were satisfied with a visit to the shop which, however, is located in the building next door.

As long as Messi makes a natural advertisement for you, it will be nice 🦦🌝

Very very busy as expected in London. Not any more expensive than other hard rock cafes abroad but bad atmosphere due to sheer busyness

Great place to sit down for a Drink or two.

The food was good, the atmosphere lively and noisy on a Monday afternoon.

We got takeaway chicken wings, chips and burgers. Everything was pretty underwhelmingly average. The burgers were dry and overcooked, the chicken wings were too spicy to eat but the chips were ok.

Fantastic! Our waitress was outstanding and so friendly the food was delicious. We will definitely be returning.

-Hard Rock Park Lane -What happened to the service?? We love Hard Rock restaurants and it is always such a treat to go, however yesterday I noticed a real shift in service. Starting with barman handing me the tray to carry my own water outside whilst waiting-yet charging 33 Pounds!!! For 4 water and two Red Bulls!!!! This was followed by an inpatient moody waiter making us feel as if he is doing us a favour by serving. I have noticed that the tip is already built into the bill so that might be the reason why no one feels they need to make an affirm or at least be polite to guests. I might not matter but you have just lost a loyal customer.

The food was cool main course I explained to my server that she was very good I then had pudding that was hot.

Really great decor, good food, fast service and super cool waiter thank you.

The original so a bit small. Seem to have really squashed the tables in to maximise diners but means space is minimal. Food was delicious after a long wait. Server was loud and vivacious but seemed to like to talk more than listen. Awesome salad!!

Waited 50 minutes despite reservation. Then get a seat right behind the entrance gate, drafts, clapping, gawking. The service man made every effort after ordering and we were repeatedly ignored. Everyone who ordered after us had already finished eating by the time we could start. The boss tries various relief work instead of directing the lazy ones. 3 employees behind the bar stand on each other's toes. The service employee lets out the drinks himself because the others are exchanging ideas. I've never experienced anything like that before. Stricter management and delegation and the store is running again.

Always great food and fast service. The atmosphere is awesome!! Lots of cool memorabilia. Very pricey, but worth it for a special occasion.

The offhand greeter who forgot we were waiting was a bore but our waiter fabulous

The first Hard Rock Cafe 😃. It was great to see all these clothes and instruments of the Stars. The food was delicious as always.

Service is very good. Location as well. I’m glad they managed to accommodate me without reservation

The first and best Hard Rock Café!!!! Great service Thank you UGO!!!!

The original HRC, will definitely visit The Back Bar and The Vault sometime. Amazing Rock Shop opposite the Cafe too

Just wanted a drink and look at memorabilia. 5 seats at bar area, four of which were taken. We movedso people could get to the bar. Seats at another bar but were told for diners only and couls sit at bar. Went outside. Complete contrast to one in USA where plenty of seats for drinkers only. Suppose the clue is in the name - Cafe.

Visiting the original Hard Rock Café was a very good idea. The place was very cool and the food was very delicious. The waitress who served us gave us very good recommendations on what to order and took great care of us.

This cafe is very expensive and they include a tip without asking you beware, we had terrible service and were put by a drafty door. They expected me to pay an extra $8.50 for sitting in a drafty corridor terrible service food wasn't too bad

Visiting the Hard Rock Cafe was fantastic. Once again. The food was very good and served promptly. The bartender was kind enough to make us an actual lemon drop drink and it was fantastic. Great food, great service, great location, we loved it. Got a table quickly, and the staff were happy and helpful. Our server, was fantastic. Funny, smiley, helpful. Food came pretty quickly. My salad was one of the best I’ve ever had. Well done Hard Rock, we will be back. Loved the music playing everywhere too. Brilliant

This place is full of stupid rules, you are not allowed to order burgers at the bar??? But you can order a burger one foot away from the bar??? Who ever made that rule shouldn’t work in the restaurant business!

3 hours for a table not worth the wait

Welcoming yes! But not what it was… The staff friendly and attentive. However my coffee was absolutely awful. It was bitter to say the least. I mentioned this, and it was met with I incredibility. It really was awful. I was brought another against my wishes which was exactly the same 🙄 If someone doesn’t like something, I’m (an adult) not going to like it the second time round.

Atención muy buena por parte de Roxana. Comida y precios acorde. Nos atendió en castellano, servicio muy agradable y local con buen ambiente.

Hmmmmm. Food was ok, didn't realise till after but must have been a salty dish. 3 of us had the trio which was Ribs, Steak and Pulled Pork but was gasping for drinks most of the evening after we ate. Wife basically had chicken nuggets and chips which didn't appear to read that way when we ordered it!

Love it. First HRC in the world

Vault closed and can't get into restaurant. Sucks

They brought us a bottle of wine that was not on the menu. We ordered a wine from California and they brought us one from Australia.

Good service good food great staff! Definitely recommend this place if u like it a bit quieter. The Piccadilly one is massive but alsosuch a great experience!

I could only go in to eat... Drinks only on the street!! In an ugly and cold country obviously 📈 no!! I'm not going to drink on the street...

Good food in great surroundings. Our evening was spoit by our waiter's poor command of the English language, although he had no problem explaining that he got none of the 12.5% service charge and we needed to tip him as well. I sent my email address to your general enquiries email on your web site

Food is amazing but if you are a party less than 3 the service is severely lacking. The initial meet and greet was great it was once seated the problems began. Despite waiting 20 minutes for a table (which we accepted and not a problem with) it took a further 15 minutes to have our order taken, I appreciate it's common for waiter/waitresses to have designated table/ areas to serve but it seemed our waiter was more focused on larger tables than a party of 2, there were plenty of other waiters/waitresses standing around empty tables waiting for customers to come in. At one point another waiter offered to take a table from our waiter and within earshot said "no because it's a party of 5 and likely to tip" so it became quite clear the waiter had no interest in us because lots of groups were available. After finishing our food (again this was fantastic) we waited and waited.....and waited for our waiter to return so we could ask for the bill. Twice he said he would be with us shortly and continued serving other tables. It actually got to the point we could have easily just walked out but of course we had every intention of paying for our meal. We had to call the attention of two other waiters to finally get the chance to ask for the bill. Overall a very disappointing experience.

Great place, great food, great service. I was expecting more of the first hard rock restaurant. The vault is nice and all but it feels bland

Although we arrived late for breakfast, we were served in a friendly manner and breakfast was prepared for us (8 people). The breakfast itself was consistently good and can really be recommended

Had very slow and mediocre service, food was average. Not good when you’re paying for better.

Absolutely brilliant service from Vesna at HRC London, went well above and beyond for my sons 9th birthday. The food was fantastic as was the atmosphere and all of the memorabilia.

Hard Rock Cafe offers an outstanding experience with a perfect combination of excellent service, delicious food. From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel welcome with friendly and attentive service. The menu boasts a variety of flavorful dishes, from classic American burgers to local specialties. The atmosphere is vibrant and fun, enhanced by its central location, making it easy to access and a great spot for both tourists and locals. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!

Excellent service and attention from Charo, one of their waitresses. Delicious food in a privileged area of ​​London next to Buckingham Palace.

We took refuge in because of a sudden rain, the food was very good and the service was extremely nice and courteous. Price/London just 😂

The first Hard Rock Cafe ever :) you have to see it - you can find great pieces by many wonderful artists here :) The burgers were very good, the salad not so much. The service was very attentive and friendly - on top of that there was a birthday milkshake on the house :)

Good place and service! Food (meat) very good! It is worth it!

Very tasty ribs and fries, but mock friendliness from the service. Not sincere. But the delicious food made up for that.

The original Hard Rock, great place, great food and drink.

Once in your life you should go into a Hard Rock Cafe and eat something. Not great food, friendly service. Reservation is advisable.

Absolutely disgusting tourists trap. One of the burgers was horribly over-salted, the second had not a gram of salt in it. Both burgers were overcooked, both burgers were very small. The "cocktail" was a glass into which so much syrup was poured that I find it difficult to tell which alcohol has been used or if there was any at all. PS We had to wait the food for ~30 minutes, it’s awful.

The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly and funny. The decor is really stylish and really great. Reservation is necessary.

The RockCafe is not far from Hyde Park. The food and drinks were the best I have ever been to in any restaurant. The staff were courteous but reserved so that you could enjoy the atmosphere. The rooms are a bit smaller than in other restaurants. It would be a good idea to make a reservation as the restaurant is not that big and is very busy in the evenings. The shop is next door on the same street.

go there if want to have more than “lunch”. great ambience and less “chaotic “ compared to the NY hard cafe . Does what you expect from hard rock! Food itself is standard but the experience is awesome if you are a rock fan.

Typical hard rock experience. Food was good. Prices slightly increased. Service was very friendly and helpful. It was hectic and loud in the restaurant, as always in Hardrock. 👨🏼‍🎤🎸 There was an extra discount on food if you bought something in the shop. 👍🏼

Delicious food at the Hard Rock Cafe. You also get a refill if, for example, you order Coke Zero as often as you want. You will also be told when you order. Good service (the same person every time) with a nice conversation and who also keeps a close eye on everything. If your glass is empty, he will ask if it needs to be refilled. Also an option for vegetarians.

There are two Hard Rock Cafes in London, but we also had the chance to visit this one. Good service and food, as all Hard Rock Cafes :)

Food was absolutely and good quality table service was great. However the most rudes frount of house staff. Who ruined the night with her rude attitude. Worst none fast food chain experience ever We visited at 18:45 on 31st August 2024

We were there in a school group and paid about £20 for the food and got a convenience burger with a carton of ice cream from the supermarket

Wonderful atmosphere, good music and friendly staff.

Excellent food here. Great memorabilia all over the place. A bit pricy for what you get.

I stopped here for lunch while a parade was occurring. Great location, service, and atmosphere 👌

One of the unforgettable moments, Thanks to the crew 🥳❤️

It's the first hard rock, so it's worth a visit for anyone who is a fan of the network. It tends to be busy, so go early or after 9pm.

The number 1 of all Hard Rock Cafés is a must-see. Rustic English flair and super friendly staff, absolute recommendation.

No plant based milk coffee. Can't sit inside if you order only drink. Why is it called cafe?

Over rated ,average American menu. Nothing outstanding about our meals. Felt rushed even though restaurant wasn't busy. Expensive lunch came out spending £70 for a burger and chips and a beef salad 2 beers and 2 coffees!!!

Passed my expectations. Awesome food. Awesome surroundings with Iconic memorabilia. Great soundtrack.

Everything great!!! Very good food and very friendly and helpful service.
