Kings Cafe in Hillingdon

I was here for my daughter's football match ⚽ and visited this wonderful café last Saturday. The food and service are great. I had a Toastie and a Latte ☕. Very friendly staff, and the place is very well kept 👏😊

Returned again, and the quality still the same. Great fresh toasties with quick service, highly recommended. Also there are tables outside.

Great little cafe in Ruilsip, would recommend visiting and prices are very reasonable and the field and woods nearby make it a lovely spot.

Great sandwiches and great coffee. Beautiful location and the service was polite and efficient. Really reasonably priced. Our dog especially loved the sausages after her walk.

On our latest visit, yesterday, anticipating "The best toastie on the Planet", we had "The best toastie in the UNIVERSE!"

Excellent local cafe, sat in the sun watching the local football on the pitch opposite. Very nice experience and Vince knows how to cook, lovely club sandwich with chips all brought to our table for us with a smile. Recommended 👍

Fresh and nice toastie sandwiches, bacon, cheese tomatoes are very nice. Not big, but friendly service, highly recommended

Sat outside Kings cafe with my sister and mum for a catch up. Had tea, coffee and sandwiches. Service was excellent brought everything to our table for us. Food was delicious. Truly had a relaxing afternoon. Would definitely go back again. Thank you.

We returned yesterday, and were again delighted with the warm welcome from Vince & Mel, who served a filtered coffee for myself and tea for my wife, as we chatted with another of their "regular" customers. The "Best Toasties on the Planet" - which we ordered with a shared portion of chips, were as wonderful as ever. The socially-distanced tables are kept spotless, regularly wiped down.

I arrived here on Saturday afternoon with 14 - 8 year olds for some hot food after spending some time in the woods. Vince and his team had kindly laid out a large table for us and prepared hot food and drinks for us all. They were super kind and patient as these kids were balls of energy. It was the perfect end to a great day and thanks again to you all for being so flexible and helpful helping me to arrange. Vince even handed out ice lollies as a treat after eating the hot food which was more than I asked for. All in all everyone had a great time. Its a great location but more importantly great staff. Thanks again.

Came in on an off chance they might still be open after the rain ruined the skatepark. I was greeted with warm smiles and good conversation, followed by an amazing coffee made perfectly. The whole experience , short but sweet, made my rainy day a whole lot better. Can’t wait to try some grub next time

Amazing friendly staff! Made us feel welcome and let us sit on their bench even after hours . Much appreciated! Lovely cup of tea too!

Walk the dog, stroll with the kids, meander with a friend then pop into King’s Cafe for some scrumptious food and drink. Always served with a smile, a chat and a laugh. Thanks fellas 😊

Dropped in for a coffee while on one of our daily walks and ended up staying for a sandwich lunch. A very nice tuna melt toastie, a packed club sandwich, two filter coffees and a bottle of water - all for less than £13. There was a friendly welcome and we were even serenaded by a ukulele band who were having their rehearsal in the sunny courtyard. We'll definitely be back.

Delicious breakfast served with a smile! We cleaned the plates. Lovely location. Couldn’t be better.

Hi - they do the "best coffee" in Ruislip, better than the coffee from the big chain coffee shops. They also serve breakfast/lunch menus, which are also very good 👍. The staff always so friendly and helpful. Would recommend you visit.

I have visited this,cafe for years and never left a review. Feel compelled to. The food is super, good value and served quickly. I like the ambience. The staff have always been welcoming. I love it. So do my 4 children. Its comforting to know...

Excellent chicken burger. Cooked on the bbq fresh. Very tasty. Lovely people who work there. Will deffo come back

Delicious food! The tuna melt toasties and burgers were delicious. Nice way to end a walk through the area.

In normal times this would be a five star review. Food is great (perfect bacon sarnie for watching a football match), coffee is great, prices are great. But not one single person working or queuing was wearing a face mask - the day that the...

Amazing cafe with a fantastic atmosphere, really made me feel welcome. Food was great, staff professional and friendly.

An impulse visit as driving by, my wife and I had a lovely vegetarian breakfast no complaints well worth the visit will come again Hi

I recommend this cafe to those who fancy straightforward meals which are beautifully prepared and at reasonable price. Their club sandwiches and toasties are delicious along with their uncomplicated coffee selection are also very good too! I can't wait to check out their breakfast on...

We dropped in for a light lunch after travelling from the Isle of Wight. We used to live in the area but had never tried this café before. It was refreshing to be greeted so enthusiastically. Obviously a very popular local venue as they greeted...

I was going to a cafe in Eastcote for breakfast and passed Kings Cafe and thought I would try it. Well worth it in my opinion - very good food and coffee at a reasonable price - lower price than lots of others in Eastcote...

Found thru Trip Advisor. Had veg breakfast and cheese omelette with salad and chips. All well cooked, fresh and tasty. Perfect poached egg. Excellent coffee. Very clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Other customers were obviously local regulars-given a warm welcome. Inexpensive and unpretentious. We will...

They serve the best jacket potato EVER, light and fluffy and piping hot. The Kings Breakfast is also excellent, as are their toasted sandwiches. Staff are always friendly and smiley.

Best full English breakfast I’ve had in a very long time good customer service as well. Friendly and helpful. Hope Liverpool win their last game ;)

Had a pleasant coffee and cake recently. Very friendly service and good to be able to sit outside in the sun.

The service is excellent. The food is good and very reasonably priced. Located by Kings College fields the cafe is ideal for walkers and those seeking a break from the crowded high street. I thoroughly recommend i.t

Who says a cuppa is just a cuppa?! I had a rare afternoon off for myself on a beautiful autumnal day! Didn't even know this little place existed but so glad I found it. A minute's walk from Ruislip Woods if you want a warm drink on the go (like me); or you can sit out in the sunshine in their patio area if you prefer, right next to a little park; or tuck in a while & warm up inside. Two very pleasant & polite local gents served me and the warmth & welcome of this little King's establishment cheered me up no end! I'll be back!

Great location effectively in a park, free parking and the omelettes come a very close second to the poached eggs. Good prices, facilities, cleanliness , does what it sez on the tin.

Really nice cafe in a great location. Friendly, helpful staff and good food at very reasonable prices. We regularly train on the track next to the cafe in our racing wheelchairs and the staff are always very accommodating when we all roll in afterwards.

Very friendly and helpful staff in a lovely position by the fields and running track Very nice for a coffee or snack after walking the dog. Sit inside or out

Very friendly cafe, always a warm welcome. Food always good quality, generous portions. Omelettes fantastic best I have had outside of France. Highly recommended.

We held my Mum's wake here, as it was her favourite place to come for lunch. The owner Vince was incredibly accommodating, and was more than happy to see out all of our requests. He was readily available the days leading up to the wake so that we could pop in and set some bits up beforehand too.

Kings Café really is worth a visit if you are in the area. The Café is located overlooking playing fields, with a pleasant outdoor seated area. Car parking is available adjacent to the Café, with easy, level access.

Returning from a very early morning hospital appointment my wife and myself felt hungry. We called in at the Kings Café. It was ultra clean and situated in a lovely spot near Ruislip Woods entrance. The two full English breakfasts, we ordered, were freshly prepared and were excellent. Also the staff were friendly and cleanly dressed. After such an excellent meal and service it will not be our last. Thank you to all concerned.

Kings Café in Ruislip is a regular "must visit" for my wife and I - and again today, we had one of their marvellous, incredible, amazing, not-to-be-missed "toasties" - we had ham, cheese, red onion, tomato in granary bread. The only "problem" is that we SO like the "toasties" that we have YET to try the other appetizing-items on their menu [apart from, on our previous visit their renowned "lemon drizzle cake"]. Coffee is nice too - and served in a decent-sized cup. Always made to feel welcome by manager Vince and his crew - so will you!!!! {I originally wrote this review in 2015 - but the latest visit confirms everything I said then - and my "Toastie" was just as good. But it IS a Café not really a restaurant. - but the food was brought to the table.

Friendly staff, serving the best jacket potatoes I have ever had, served with a delicious salad. My husband always has the ham eggs and chips, better than all the local eateries, even the dog has fresh water. Very good value. Roll on next summer.

This little cafe by the football fields is fantastic and well run. it is fresh food, freshly prepared and it is ideal for breakfast, elevensies, lunch but i don't think it is open in the evening.

Friendly service with very good reasonably priced food. We popped in Sunday morning just before youth football

Very friendly staff, superb breakfast at reasonable prices, will definitely go back in the summer so I can sit on terrace

Nice and cosy not overly so busy. So you can have hold your conversation. Environment so good which you looking for in a cafe.

A corto plazo la Cafetería Reyes (Vince) tomó en un buffet para 50 personas. La comida fue fantástica, y Vince hizo todo gusto absolutamente magnífico. Precio competitivo, Vince establecer perfectamente encajaba con nuestro calendario, y cuando estaba todo recogido los platos.

He ido a Kings Cafe por un par de años y nunca me ha decepcionado. Vince y James siempre son amables y acogedores. Tanto si se trata de una sandwichera Sandwich club, reyes, papas o el queso de chaqueta más deliciosos y tortilla de hongos...

Un lugar tranquilo de verano práctico para bosques y ruislip cerca del río pinn. Nada de lujos, pero de buena calidad. Buena relación calidad-precio. Tuve jamón, 2 huevos y patatas, dos botellas de agua, una taza de té... todos de generosas proporciones. Mi hija tenía un atún y queso sandwichera. Todo bien presentado y servido con el encanto y la gracia.

Este café fantástico es uno de los secretos mejor guardados en ruislip, escondido en los campos reyes. Está en una ubicación muy verde, pacífico y tranquilo al lado de los campos de jugar y nueva pista de atletismo. A menudo nos visita por la comida...

Buena comida, alimentos frescos, café limpio y agradable zona al aire libre. Mucho espacio de aparcamiento disponible, con precios muy razonables y rápido para servir comida. He tenido sandwiches, patatas fritas, fritos y todo era precioso. Zona de perros fuera demasiado, perfecto para pasear perros...

This excellent cafe is one of the best kept secrets in Ruislip. It is tucked away near the Playing Fields and is in a brilliant location. We often visit because it is such good value and we usually sit outside on the patio area overlooking the playing fields. It is serene with birds singing in the background a secluded sanctuary away from traffic noise. Service is excellent and the food is freshly made. My favorite at the moment is the Kings Cheese Omelette which is well seasoned, perfectly cooked and full of flavour and comes with salad and french fries. Good value for less than £5.

Kings Café is adjacent to some playing fields and offers peaceful and pleasant views from the outdoor patio area. It is a haven for excellent food My current favourite is a tuna sandwich and a side bowl of French fries. Vince and his colleagues ensure each visit is a great experience. Thank you.

Went for a walk with my wife and children, we found a really nice cafe after the walk. We sat down for a toastie and the children had an ice cream; which they had a great selection. We had a lovely toastie. Spoke to who I presume was the owner, who said there was going to be a barbecue later on in the summer. Looking forward to going back.

We stopped here on the way home and it was great. The food is nice and the staff very friendly. Typical english style cafe set in a beautiful location with great views outside and at a very reasonable cost.

Quiet location used by students who were working away on their laptops, outside was a pleasant area to sit and watch the world go by

It was a nice day and we sat in nice courtyard adjacent to public running track watching some athletes. The coffee was good and we had tuna melt toasties each which were very tasty. Staff very friendly - went at 2.45pm - nearly closing and nice and quiet spot for snack

Been twice and both were awful.. I ordered a Toasted bacon and Cheese toasty and in 1 half got just cheese and in the other half got just Bacon .. I didn't understand that at all and when asked why it's like that. The guy who served me just shuggred his shoulders and carried on doing what he was doing

Very friendly owner. Food excellent. Has large area out side for walking dogs or for keeping fit on the large grass area surounding the cafe

The Kings Cafe provided the catering for our baby's Christening and they did an excellent job. They took the pressure off the day by providing cutlery, napkins etc and the food was delicious. There was a great selection for both meat eaters and vegetarians and all of the food was really fresh. All of our guests thought it was fantastic and had second and third helpings! Vince was also lovely to deal with. We would definitely use them again. Thank you!

Poached eggs on granary bread, with a slurp of coffee for breakfast and to start the day. Now where's those dogs gone! If you want to run it off there's a running track next door. If you want to walk it off then head to the woods.

Regular lunch spot for me, top staff and great food all reasonable priced! Jacket potatoes are a personal recommendation from me.

It is so nice to have breakfast in a clean, bright and friendly place. It is so easy to park and the service is excellent :really friendly and the food is always well cooked and nicely presented. I try to make sure I am early enough for work so I have time for breakfast there. We have also been there for lunch and the take away lunch is really good too. The service is really quick and friendly. I would definitely recommend it.

Very good breakfasts and open before 8 which is great. The patio is a real suntrap in the summer. The cafe is in a lovely setting.

Don't expect a huge variety on the menu. Kings Cafe does what it says. It is a cafe on Kings College Road in Ruislip. The food is always fresh and inexpensive. Service is friendly and the place is clean. It is housed in Kings College pavilion. The actual indoors eating area is quite small although the patio outside is very pleasant, overlooking the playing fields that are thankfully still available for everybody to enjoy. We regularly use the caff if we can't be bothered to cook. It is a favourite for workmen and can run out of ingredients when busy. It does get very busy at times, especially on Saturdays when there loads of people using the playing fields. My advice is to get there early if you want the pick of the full menu.

Had a lovely toastie and a great coffee on the patio, my dog Rodger was welcomed back again with great kindness and a fresh bowl of water. I love this place, it's great watching people exercising and thinking I will do that tomorrow and the staff here are always attentive and friendly. See you soon kings cafe :)

Friendly staff greeted us on arrival and quickly offered us jacket potatoes which had just finished cooking. We wanted to try the club sandwich but unfortunately a lack of chicken meant we had to opt for the BLT instead, with chips and tap water (which to be honest could have been colder!) For the price we paid the food was lovely and service was good with tea served after our sandwiches. I have to admit I wasn't blown away by the setting (it's not really a park so much as a running track with a skate park next to it) but if you're looking for cheap and cheerful this is the place to come.

We visited Kings Café today. The café is set in Kings College Playing Fields, Ruislip close to Ruislip Woods and is an idyllic location. You can sit outside or inside. We had a BLT sandwich,lots of salad and tasty bacon. The staff are always helpful, efficient and friendly. Nothing is too much for them. We recommend this lovely café and peaceful location. Well worth a visit.

We enjoyed a lovely lunch in a very clean and friendly cafe. We were in the area with our grandson riding his bike on the track, so we decided to give the cafe a try. The BLT was the best my husband had tasted. I enjoyed a jacket potato served with a fresh salad, and our grandson enjoyed a ham toastie which he finished. My cuppa tea was great as well. Prices were very reasonable also, so full marks to Kings Cafe.

We visited Kings Café today with family. There is a varied choice of food, and we chose tuna mayonnaise toasted sandwich, BLT, the full monty breakfast, Kings breakfast, tea and coffee and it all looked and tasted delicious. We followed this with homemade banana cake. The café is set in Kings College Playing Fields, Ruislip close to Ruislip Woods and is an idyllic location. You can sit outside or inside. The staff are always very helpful, efficient and friendly. Nothing is too much for them. We recommend this little gem of a café and its lovely location. I know we will be visiting again.

We are regular customers at Kings Café. The food is freshly cooked and the service is friendly and welcoming. We took some friends to the café today and they were all delighted with their meals. Two had' breakfasts' and the rest of us had a variety of sandwiches and potato fries. It was a great experience and we all want to return again as soon as possible. Our thanks to Vince and Kerry for looking after so well.

This restuarant is a complete waste of time don't even bother going there and waste your money. The owner is a very rude and ill mannered person person and is only interedted in serving her regular ciustomers that spend a lot of money there

We wanted somewhere local to hold a small party for a family occasion and have been quite a few times to the Kings Cafe during the week/ends and have always loved going here, however we saw that they were advertising their services for evening BBQ parties providing a full catering service as well as hire of the hall next door. Speaking with Vince it was clear he was very passionate about it and would love the opportunity to cater for our group. He offered a good selection on the menu and we booked out the venue inviting roughly 60 guests.We were so fortunate with the weather for late March as it was glorious sunshine, with the outlook from the hall we had an amazing backdrop of a sunset over the playing fields which really made the evening.The food which Vince and his family served was brilliant, the time they had spent marinating and preparing was evident and all of the guests loved it. We were also able to provide our own drink and deserts with no fuss at all. Vince and his team were only too happy to help and accommodate.The venue room is roughly 15m square with good access, clean toilets and free car parking provided too.We would have no quibble in recommending the Kings Cafe for a evening party or for the cafe. An all round pleasing experience for which we are very grateful.

I have eaten in King's Café on several occasions; it has a number of regular customers as it is close to the woods where people often walk their dogs and the surrounding fields are used for a variety of sports so home fans congregate and away fans follow. I find the menu typical of a café - sandwiches, rolls, baked potatoes, chips and "English breakfast" items etc. The food is always freshly prepared to order and I have never had a bad meal. Like a previous reviewer I have, on occasions, found that they have run out of an item - but hey so do supermarkets! They are always able to recommend alternatives and I have never been charged for an item I didn't have. However I didn't just want to review the café...READ ON Last year I was looking for a caterer for my wife's birthday and asked Vince - the owner - if he could recommend anyone. I was surprised to find that he and his wife, Nicky, OFFER CATERING SERVICES at other venues too. They came up with menu suggestions at very competitive prices and we "gave them a try". They delivered the food to the venue and laid it all out very nicely on proper plates and in serving bowls etc. and even added little touches like linen cloths and flowers on the buffet table. All the guests commented on the excellent quality and we were impressed with the quantity and the price! This year my mother died and we needed a caterer for the funeral...I looked no further than Vince and Nicky and again they did not disappoint - even at relatively short notice. If you need a caterer in Ruislip I highly recommend this team!

fantastic little cafe, free parking, friendly staff and awesome bacon rolls ! there,s a wider menu, but the sandwiches and fresh coffee justify repeat visits on their own

I have eaten in a few cafes in the local area but King's Cafe is one I repeatably come back to time after time due to the staff who, without a doubt, always make me feel immediately comfortable with their fantastic customer service and friendly vibes. It is obvious that they care truly about the business and their customers. The food is always presented very nicely, and tastes even better, with a vast selection of food to choose from. I personally suggest the chips. They have to be the greatest chips I have ever had! Crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. The cafe has a fantastic eating area outside, very spacious and in a great location. I strongly suggest this cafe to any one, its a personal favourite of mine.

We have used this cafe on numerous occasions and Vinnie runs it very well.He has many regulars and it has a pleasant outside seating area aswell.Though not large inside it is lovely and clean and a great place for breakfst,lunch,sandwiches,homemade cakes and refreshments.Located at Kings College Playing Fields there is also a decent car park and it is a pleasant place to be.Lovely bread and rolls.We highly recommend it.

Decided to come here Saturday afternoon for brunch after reading the excellent reviews. Pretty disappointed to be honest. Came in at 12.30, had a look at the menu, I decided to have the full monty breakfast and my friend the kings special breakfast. My friend went up to order while I sat at the table. I heard the young girl saying to him they couldn't do the full monty or the kings special.. she turned to clarify with the guy doing the cooking (her dad maybe?, I got the feeling they were his kids due to the way he was speaking to them!)I heard him shout quite rudely "well it is 20 to 1!!" As though it was our fault they were running out of breakfast stuff. Told us they could do us 2 normal breakfasts.. which were ok, nothing special.  Didn't have mushrooms or hash browns but still charged full price.  Presentation was nothing like the pictures on here. Overall we definitely didn't find it as friendly or as good as the previous reviews. The young girls serving also seemed quite nervous and unsure. The menu is pretty small too, basically breakfast stuff, sandwhiches/toasties and baked potato's - so it's pretty unacceptable to be running low on ANYTHING on a Saturday when you're only open for 6 hours and your menus already limited- better stock planning perhaps. Rather than making rude loud comments when someone comes in and orders breakfast at 12.30!

I have never been to Ruislip fields before but found myself there last Sunday morning in the cold and mud waiting for an away game for my son's U13 football match against Ruislip Rangers. Whenever we leave the confines of West London on mystery tour out to the edges of Middlesex, I always ask if there is a decent tea place. My prayers were answered when we parked across the road from the Kings Cafe. They provided a cracking bacon and egg sandwich, good tea and friendly smiles which only served to increase my optimistic mood about the impending game. Unfortunately for the Rangers, the result was not as good as my breakfast! Thoroughly recommended to ease the pains of early Sunday mornings!

I have been to this cafe a few times when my daughter played hockey nearby but I returned today with my son for an impromptu lunch as we had some time to fill.The owners/staff were very friendly and helpful and we sat outside and enjoyed our jacket potatoes and salad, homemade lemon drizzle cake and good coffee at a fair price. There is a large terrace with bistro style tables and chairs both in the sun and sheltered. Nice to see an independent cafe that sells simple home cooked food served with a smile.

Today I came across this wonderful cafe by accident. I was in walking my dog ,Rodger in the woods when he vanished, after half an hour of panic I phoned my husband to come and help me look for him, just after that a lovely man called me to say he had my dog, he gave me directions to this cafe where Rodger had turned up. They had realised he was on his own and called the number on his collar. I rang my husband and arranged to meet him there. I arrived at the cafe to find Rodger being very well taken care of, spoilt even. The owner of the cafe who I now know as Vince was wonderful, he could see the relief in my face. My husband arrived and we enjoyed a good strong coffee while Rodger enjoyed lost of fuss and attention. We will be returning here very soon with my family as the menu looked amazing and Vince and the other staff where so welcoming and caring. I can't thank them enough for saving my life today and Reuniting me with my little Rodger

A breakfast from King's Cafe is the best start I can have to a day. Never fails to provide the warmth and energy I need for my morning commute. The staff are very friendly and recognize a reoccurring face. I've been eating here for a while now, hope to keep it that way.

We visited Kings Café today after a long journey home from Sussex. The sun was shining and we had a lovely lunch, BLO (bacon, lettuce and onion) and tuna mayonnaise with salad sandwich which were delicious. The café is set in Kings College Playing Fields, Ruislip close to Ruislip Woods and is an idyllic location. You can sit outside or inside. The staff are efficient and always helpful nothing is too much for them. We recommend this little gem of a café and its lovely location.

This is an excellent and amazing café located on Kings College Road, tucked away near Kings College Playing Fields. It is on the edge of Ruislip Woods (200 yards away). We regularly lunch there after a walk in the woods or as a special treat as we did today. It is a great find! It is in a tranquil, delightful setting with views over the playing fields and a large seating area outside which catches the sun. Vince (the owner), Kerry and the rest of the team offer a warm welcome and has a happy atmosphere. If you want to lift your spirits, this is the place to come. Kings is usually open from 8am to about 3pm, seven days a week. Its menu includes a wide range of sandwiches, toasties, jacket potatoes and breakfasts. The food is freshly cooked and delicious. The place is spotless and sparkling. Our favourite is BLT and French fries or a jacket potato with tuna mayonnaise.

If you're looking for an excellent cafe near Ruislip woods, look no further than this little gem. The best club sandwich this side of London

i was walking my dog in the woods and discovered this lovely little cafe. Their BLT baguette with a basket of chips was the best I've had and was presented excellently. Would highly recommend!
