Melba at the Savoy in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

It may seem daft to go on a 200 mile round trip just for a few eclairs and bits however I've been wanting to surprise my girlfriend with these treats for a while, I had a free day so I thought drive down and get some. The place was closed!! Monday to Friday!! Yet copied and pasted off their website below clearly states open Saturday!! Waste of time, fuel, money etc etc ... Staff obviously useless based on reading other reviews saying how arrogant they are ... I'll never try again , considering the Savoy supposed to be prestigious ... OPENING HOURS Monday to Friday: 6.30am to 7.00pm Saturday: 7.30am to 7.30pm

I go to Melba as a treat for the outstanding coffee and super service! It's expensive but worth the cost as the coffee is leagues above anything else I've tried in the area! Service is always super friendly and Jess is extremely attentive and always seems to know what I want before I ask for it (and I change my order regularly). She always makes me smile and I look forward to popping in each week for a chat. Thank you for bringing sunshine into my weeks! Go visit people - you won't regret it!

fresh, delicious and so good. Hard to beat eclairs and they come in the lovely little ftted boxes... good quality ingredients, worth paying a little extra for,

Have used this place a couple of times in the past but won’t bother today. Had a very supercilious waitress who held her hand up to stop me from putting my order in. Rude and condescending this “lady” needs to learn how to treat people and customers. Based on this rather shoddy service I cannot recommend. Try Pret or the Spanish place next door at least they are civil to you!

Although expensive, the eclairs are worth every bite and a visit. A small shop, predominantly for take away. There are just 3 stools inside the shop, perfect for people watching 😀, being winter, there was no sitting outside.

Convenient being right next to the Savoy, but keep walking at you'll find the ubiquitous Pret A Manger which is far better.

They are named for the opera singer that used to stay at the Savoy. When dieting she ate a concoction called melba toast. When not dieting, they gave her peach melba ice cream, all of it named for her by the Savoy chef at the time. This namesake has gorgeous specialty eclairs of all types. I tried the coffee, the croissant was amazing, and an egg sandwich on different days. Each time the staff was kind and helpful. If you are staying at the hotel, or walking near the strand, this is a cute and lovely place to stop. You can grab ready made breakfast sandwich or try a gourmet eclair.

We visited this place especially to taste the food Clair's after reading all the reviews we weren't at all disappointed the pastry at Melba are amazing literally to die for

I am so lucky to work very close to Melba and it has become my regular first-coffee of the morning stop on my way to work. The staff are all incredibly friendly and extremely efficient in assisting the many customers coming in. They seem to have built quite a crowd of regular customers as I see many loyal customers during my regular visits. Their lunch sandwiches, salads are excellent and so much, much better than Pret or Paul. Eclairs and other bakery products are good as well, and I always have to restrain myself not to over indulge in them too often!

Had a lovely egg and bacon croissant and pretty good albeit luke warm coffee, standard stuff really. The woman serving was pretty rude to a nice savoy chef who kept bringing her the lunch items to put on display. We all have bad days but I felt for the guy she kept berating. Hopefully she was just having an off day. FYI 1030 Tues 15th May.

Nestled in the Savoy, this dessert takeaway specializes in gourmet eclairs. Well executed generally and while still pricey, better value than comparable shops despite the prime Strand location. Selection varies daily but most are not too off-the-wall flavors. Not Parisian quality but tasty enough.

This was my first time having a coffee from here are for the Quality it is in beatable. There was a bit of a wait to get served but Really fantastic coffee well worth it.

Am a regular here. All their eclairs taste great, and are all well priced. Staff tried to sell me 6 eclairs when I only wanted two...

Oh my god...If I lived closer to this shop I would be in there all day. My husband went in to London recently and came across this place....He purchased a number of cakes for me as he knew I wouldn't be impressed if he didn't. the Crème Brule Éclair is to die for. Beautifully presented and the flavours of all of them were just something I have never experienced before. He knows not to come back from London without them now.

What an amazing place! Great service, scrumptious pastries, nice coffee and all at reasonable prices. I have already been there three times and I am planning my next visit as soon as possible. Do try the blueberry muffins and a very different apple pastry as well as the iceclairs. Thank you for making my afternoons better. Weather permitting, get your coffee and enjoy the tranquility of the Savoy gardens at the back of the hotel.

I had high expectations of this place, as they sponsored some Facebook ads and it appeared on my timeline and has the luxury Savoy on their name. However, what a disaster customer service. I was making a video of the nice eclairs that this place...

This shop specialises in eclairs and pastries made in the pastry kitchen of the Savoy Hotel. Named in honour of Dame Nellie Melba a former hotel guest this place is a little gem. We called in after having a Dim Sum lunch in nearby Soho...

What a great little Coffee and Sandwich shop in Charing Cross Street. The gentleman who served me at the coffee and sandwich shop was very knowledgeable and very helpful on the coffee and the desserts they sold. I am a lover of coffee but there...

Over the last year, I go to Melba almost everyday for their great coffee, sandwiches and salads. Last month the Cafe made some changes in food that are less than average. Quality and presentation of sandwiches has diminished. The sandwiches are now prepackaged ala Pret-a-Manger....

The best iceclairs with a variety of toppings to choose from. Located just outside the Savoy hotel, this tiny patisserie sells a variety of eclairs and other cakes/snacks. However it's the summer special, the IceClairs that steal the show. A must try if you are...

If you are craving excellent Savoy pastries but are short on time, energy, or money, this is an excellent place to quickly pick up a pastry or sweet treat. They have sandwiches, salads, and quiches available too. There are only 3 benches to sit down...

This is the greatest coffee shop with the best selection of cakes on the planet. Angel and her team are the icing on the cake, so to speak! The service is wonderful, the food and coffee are addictive, the calories are irrelevant! The cakes are...

Outstanding coffee, fantastic food and wonderful service. The best coffee in London with the most amazing selection of cakes. The service is first class, in particular Jessica is always courteous, polite, friendly, charming and helpful.

Passing so we got a coffee Wow this small coffee place sits on the edge of the savoy entrance so we expected high prices but to be fair it was £12.00 for two coffees and two cakes was a bargain The cakes where off the...

Been here more than a few times and have tried lots of different items. EVERYTHING is nice, flavours work really well. Eclairs are £3.50, patisserie items are £4. Only 3 seats available in store. Domed passion fruit dessert is the best. Lemon meringue is unsteady...

This is on the corner of the entrance to the Savoy. There are a couple of seats inside and they service really nice coffee, delicious salads and all done with a massive smile. The prices are pretty good too.

Eclairs are very nice and reasonably priced. The salmon quiche is nice to have too. Would go again to try other items.
