Paul in City of London, Westminster

Great selection of breakfast beverages and foods. Very friendly and efficient staff. Nice size portions for the money. Great value!

Excellant service...unblivables coroas....reasonable price...really good French taste that's my best choice ever since 20 year's and their quality never ever goes down with new selections of products I did once or tow times a week d8d 24 miles to get from pual store. carry on

They don’t accept cash. They won’t heat your food up. The staff is really bad.

The only take card payments… not everyone has a card available! That’s rude and classist.

Been to Paul’s on Baker Street quite a few times on the weekend and the service has always been friendly. The croissants and teas are good too.

I bought a cake from here to take to someone's birthday. Unfortunately when we cut into it, we found a hair in the cake which was very off-putting.

Always good for a short break with a croissant or other pastries like in Paris. The decor is more like a fast food joint.

Thank you fór gays Reception Amizing and good coffee and Food Thank you paul

No scones in their menu anymore:(That was a big disappointment

Came in with family to have a drink and pastry while wandering around London. Ordered 3 drinks to drink in, never received a tea spoon, when asked, received 1. Bare in mind we had 3 different drinks. Ordered 1 sweet and 2 savoury pastries, blonde lady behind the counter said she will warm it up, she literally put hot dog sandwich in the microwave for 5 second in front of me, when she hand me that plate I checked the sandwich and it was cold, I had to call her back, she literally blow her eyes telling me that it's warm, I told her it is not and asked to warm it up properly. She then put the sandwich back in the microwave for a whole minute. Place was pretty empty, but everything around was dirty, all tables full of crumbles, corners full of empty dirty plates and cups. Felt very unwelcome. Toilets are disaster too, messy with no toilet paper. Pastries and coffee are nice, but to save the hassle and your mood probably is better, just have as take away.

Very disappointed with the quality of the pastries and pastries (hard and not fresh), plus the service is not up to par, I have been twice and will never return again!

The food is just bad. Get an Ole & Steen or Gail’s to replace in the location

Great place to eat and drink good hot coffee and hot chocolate. Great snacks, cakes

Not bad but also on the expensive side for what it is. Drink and pastries were absolutely fine and chairs comfy enough to have a rest. Tables were dirty though and the young lad serving seemed a bit stressed out! Will go again if I have to but prefer to look elsewhere.

One of the best coffee shops in london! The service and staff at this place is the best in london which only adds to the amazing coffee. I would like to give a big thank you also to Ana and Minhaj for there honesty and hardwork, when i lost my key, left it behind at a table and came back to find that it was kept safe for me. Absolute lifesavers!

Wrong organisation in pick hours unpleasant staff with unknowlage how to make proper coffee

I had a lovely relaxing time out of the hustle and bustle of London, in Paul. It was light, bright and clean inside, with plenty of space. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food and coffee was lovely! I had a pain au rasin, and later on tried a macaron. Wonderful. Definitely would recommend.

Nice atmosphere and good bakeries.

I came in to enjoy a cup of coffee this morning and soy flat white was not right. Firstly, the place wasn’t busy but they didn’t get the order right and prepared it as a takeaway instead. Later the drink was remade for me as the concentration & flavour were not ok but no improvement was observed and in fact all was done with pretty unpleasant manner leaving no other choice but not to return here again.

Love their cakes. However, the service has fallen in recent times. Tables are not cleaned.

The coffee was really hot and I think it was made on purpose. Afro Americans served. I won't go again

I recently ordered a birthday cake at this place, opting for their caramel and chocolate cake, and it was an absolute delight! From the first bite to the last, every mouthful was a treat to the senses. The caramel and chocolate flavors were perfectly balanced, creating a rich and indulgent experience. The cake itself was moist and flavorful, and the presentation was impeccable. I couldn't have asked for a better centerpiece for my celebration. PAUL truly exceeded my expectations, and I'll definitely be returning for more of their delicious creations in the future!

Ordered the most popular one for 10 ppl on the lunar new year occasion. The cake was a bit too big for all bags so need to hold with hand. A girl called to remind pick up about 30min before shop closing which was considerate. The cake itself looks great and got unanimous good ratings with all friends (personally not my favourite. It’s a bit like Mille-feuille’s multi-layer structure)

Good coffee and fresh pastry. Highly recommended for a relaxing break between meals or just to rest between sightseeing.

The hot chocolate is to die for!!

Bad, really bad! Expensive, the food looks old, disgusting coffee and no spoons no tissue. Dirty shop and the worst…the hand sanitiser. Not suggested!

Ordered a strawberry frasier cake online and went to collect it from this store. The staff were very quick with bringing my cake and even stapled the bag so the box with the cake inside would be secure so thank you. Lovely cake, well worth the £42.95 spent on it.

Arrived around 16:45 and bought a strawberry cheesecake. i knew it’s a bit late but i didn’t expect a melted cheesecake, and my place just 10mins away from the shop. if it was too late pls let your customers know, shouldn’t sell a melted cheesecake to them, of course it was straight to the bin. btw it was a birthday cake.

Incrível, tudo perfeito👌 Tem pastéis de nata e provei pela primeira vez um Iced Choco, bem bom🤩

Good is great the service is mediocre same with the atmosphere. The toilets could be cleaned better and the chairs and tables have seen better days.

Today I bought a chicken salad, which I binned because it wasn’t fresh. The chocolate tart was warm as well. If you have fridge problems don’t sell your food… Obviously I didn’t have a receipt so no going back…

Very surprised by the poor service, quality of food served. My wife and I asked for a snack and tea/coffee in mugs to eat in. First, the snacks were given in a bag to take away, and when reminded about eating in, were put in a plate. The tea/ coffee took at least 20 minutes after repeated reminders and after being initially served in take away paper cups. Have very good experiences with eating at Paul in various countries around the world. This Paul in Baker Street does not fit the mould. Even Starbucks is better

Unfortunately ordered A large Latte Ended up with a small size flat white was told no more large cups available Funny was charged for a large latte Little disappointed as regular customer

Lovely Paul, great place to chill out on a Sunday afternoon.

Paul is always a good bet for a delicious lunch and a tasty bakery treat! The staff here were lovely, and despite it being around lunchtime it was easy to find a table to eat in. The chicken salad was really tasty, and a pleasant change from the usual stuff elsewhere - it included walnuts, apple, cheese, good range of salad leaves, grated carrot, and a delicious oil dressing. Can’t go to Paul without buying a slice of Frasier cake though, which never disappoints!

When there in morning got offer a seat but had to take food from counter to table shocking service would recommend to others

Not even close to a french "Paul's"

The workers don't know how to do Americano. It was water of a dark color and the smell of coffee, but it was not Americano. In my opinion, a barista should take a course and learn how to make coffee and not be rude to customers, and it was possible to make it not in a paper cup, because I ordered a cake !!

As usual a very trusted restaurant for all day long with a roomy hall for dining in and nice memories in london city few blocks away from madam tussauds museum in backer street

Wow. Bad experience. Staff just wanted to shut early and really didn't want us there. Ordered several coffees and cakes, and it looked like they went into melt down. No plates, cups or cutlery. Closed the toilet before the shop. Coffee was meh. Only saving grace were the cakes. Avoid, better places are available.

Nice bakery/café with indoor and outdoor seating

Recently it is fairly disappointing. First, the people don’t know what they are selling. An eclair Paris Brest is not a chocolate eclair. And then the lazines of leaving ALL of the prices on the window when half of the pastries are different. Third, the quality has just gone down. Chouxquettes used to be great. Now soggy and heavy. It is a pity but won’t be returning.

The staff here were uninterested and actually borderline rude, the woman who took my order at the till literally showed no interest in my order and demonstrated really poor customer services. I even said hello and thank you, to get nothing but a blank face back at me. The food and coffee was, as always with Paul, very nice but I really don't like the wooden cutlery, it's by far the worst experience to eat food with and it heavily affects the taste of the food you're eating, as it mostly tastes of food. Please invest in actual metal currently and platee, which is how it should be. Overall rather let down and disappointed with my visit to Paul.

The duo cake was awesome. I wish i know the name of girl on reception. She was so polite. Thumbs up.

Great place to have a cuppa accompanied by a tasty danish etc, friendly atmosphere and professional service

Ci siamo fermati per caso invitati dalle torte in vetrina, ne abbiamo scelto una con crema e frutti di bosco per il mio compleanno. L'abbiamo consumata nella saletta al piano di sopra. Torta molto buona e personale molto disponibili e carine.

Unfriendly girl at the cash , she looked like she was annoyed and mad at the world . The beignets were stale and old , very disappointing . And they still don’t accept cash , only payment by credit card . Luckily my cappuccino was good .

Had a sandwich and escargot pastry with coffee. Was really good.

I have to say that I am normally averse to leaving negative reviews, life has not been easy for any of us over the last 3 years and ill considered criticism can just sound mealy mouthed but our experience at Paul on Baker Street this Saturday has left me so disappointed that I wish to share with others. We entered the establishment to find busy tables but little by way of a queue. I ordered 2 coffees to have sat outside, as it was a pleasant morning. Having ordered my wife went to use their w.c. to find it locked. When we highlighted this, the server pointed to a sign sellotaped to one side stating "take away only". Having said that we were going to sit outside and having seen full tables, this non vocal just pointing at a sign was a little taciturn to say the least. Nonetheless we stood to one side to await our coffees, at this time two further customers had entered the facility, their orders were taken and whilst they too had ordered coffee, they were served before us whilst we were left ignored. After 4 - 5 minutes of this my wife approached one of the servers and asked whether our order had been processed, to be told a fairly derisory "no". In light of this she asked the other server to cancel the order and to reimburse our credit card. The server duly went through the charade of reimbursing the card and we left the facility to get a coffee from a street bar. We are now 5 days later with no refund to our account. If I am honest, the £6 is slightly frustrating but it was the entire visit that left us totally bemused, to experience such poor levels of attention from staff demonstrating open ennui was frankly the worst level of customer service that I have seen in many years ( and I work in the service industry myself ). I would beseech anyone to avoid this establishment. There is a fantastic street vendor just the other side of Selfridges, the lady there served a great coffee with enthusiasm and a smile.

在物價昂貴的倫敦發現 來自法國的Paul 反而是值得推薦用（早）餐的選擇，店員服務態度蠻好的，店面寬敞、座位多，早餐有提供特價組合，麵包可加熱、用餐不限時，到倫敦時定再訪。

Very good place for a nice coffee .they have a wonderful cack and nice atmosphere

Very low selection of savoury items for a Paul’s. Hardly any savoury items, 3 hours before closing. It’s Sunday, yes, but if you’re open until 5pm, why would you have hardly any savoury items at 2pm. Staff seemed more interested in cleaning to be ready to close.

Their staff was RACIST. I visited with my family. Poor staff and service. ONE OF THE receptionist behaviour was unacceptable the GUY NAMED PAUL just yelling and was being rude just because we pointed towards the thing we wanted. He was like I’m going to refund you the money as I don’t want to serve you anymore. Upon asking who gave him the authority to do that he started being racist saying who are you. This is not even your country. I need the management to keep such hot headed and lunatic people out of their business. Because reception is a customer service job. And any such behaviour can never be tolerated.

In this current economy when regular clients come and ask to be seated and whole section is closed at 14:00 while 4 staff behind counter are giggling - you rather walk away business then provide a seat - assuming your paying too dollar for the rent - staff need to be told the value of net profitability maybe? Service is getting worse - manager do something !

Visited it twice in a week. Both times they charged me more by adding extra

Rude staff. Tasty food. Drink was ok

Like coffee and atmosphere here oh and sandwiches too

لذيذ جدا لكن انا جيت على اخر الوقت ولايوجد شي من الحلا

Nice place to visit ! But the service isn’t as expected !

Had a chocolate beignet and a choquette, both were great

I bought cakes (including birthday cakes for me, my wife, my son...) from Paul online regularly. I am a French man living in London.Today at 10am, walked into that Paul bakery on Baker street to buy a poppy seed baguette. And guess what? They dare sell me a frozen baguette from the day before. They should be ashamed of themselves. I will never buy anything from Paul ever again. I know it was frozen: it is as hard as a brick. I am french, I know what a frozen baguette is. Outrageous, morally wrong for a bakery to sell frozen baguettes without even telling their customers. They have zero integrity, They have lost my custom forever.

Great coffee and sandwiches. Very busy in lunch time though

Visited on the day of the transport strike so not too busy. Has a reasonably sized interior and was air conditioned well. There were enough staff and the 'lab coat' ' manager seemed to be on shift. The interior looked clean and well organised with a full range on display. The only thing of note was that my party sat outside. We had to ask for the table we used to be cleaned and noticed that the outside tables were slow to be cleared.

Not as good as it used to be. Need to have more alternative milk options eg Coconut.

Прекрасная Кофейня , расчёт только по безналу . Всегда свежие десерты, есть веранда , где можно тел посидеть с друзьями в хорошую погоду .

Delicious pastries and hot drinks. Nice place.

Great food, atmosphere and staff. Would definitely recommend it.

Just horrible! A disgusting cappuccino (it's better the one of Vendor machine)

A very attractive retro style building with great food and great staff.

The caramel tartlette was lovely and the hot chocolate thick and rich. Toilette facilities could have been a bit better

The almond croissant and coffee were amazing. We actually walked all the way back again today. The website says they were closed so we took a chance and it was open for business. I would highly suggest they update the site. The barista was nothing short of awesomeness. Today they only had one almond croissant, so I ate the macron that was incredible. The baker loaded the house on my way out. He said that the order arrived late today. Despite the employment shortage this place handles crowds well. I love this place for breakfast! Highly recommend this place and the Macron !!!!

Petfect place to grab a coffee and a croissant and watch the world go by.

Δεν υπάρχουν πολλές επιλογές για γλυκό ή αλμυρό, όμως καλός καφές.

A convenient location to have tea and coffee with something quick to eat. The service here has always been friendly and efficient for me so no complaints there. It's spacious so we have always managed to find a table for 2. I really enjoy their chai latte and sandwiches. I've had a better almond croissant elsewhere compared to the one at PAUL, so I would go for the plain croissant next time.

Beautiful patisserie & taste delicious. I took a detour on the tube and bought a whole craquant cake yesterday. It was well worth it, gorgeous mirror glaze, perfect layers and satisfying textures. I’d post a photo but we ate it 🤣.

I popped in on a Friday morning to do a bit of work, use the wifi and have a treat! The almond croissant and americano hit the spot. Really nice and not too sweet or sickening. Staff were pleasant and service was good. Not too busy. There are seats at the back too as well as the front and some outside as well. Nice range of pastries, cakes and more! Wifi was not too fast. Only small negative is that most of the tables were set out for parties of four or five. Would be nice to have more smaller tables. I was sitting on a huge table on my own. Luckily it wasn't busy. Reasonably clean.

Great french breakfast, quietly on a weekend morning

So I came at around 16.45, ordered myself a latte and a macaroon, the lady asked which cup I prefer, and I said the cup to have it in, as I wanted to relax and have my drink inside. No one mentioned that they are closing at 5. So as I was nearly finishing my coffee at 17:00 and other people were still sat in the cafe as well, 3 ladies came to me and said we are closed you need to leave now. I was replying that I’m nearly done and will leave asap, but they didn’t stop, they were keep coming to me and telling me to leave, although there were still other people inside. I think it is very disrespectful, not a show of hospitality at all, all the staff is just horribly impolite. Probably, hospitality is not for them, as they couldn’t wait for 2 minutes for a customer to finish their coffee. Hopefully, the manager is going to do something about their staff, as this is just embarrassing.

Dispence too small for a central zone like this PAUL. Soya cappuccino not taste and bitter.

Great French type caf'e the rolls and sandwiches and cakes are excellent after all they are bakers

Nous avons voulu tester du français en Angleterre... Pas déçu du voyage, un sandwich montagnard avec du gruyère et du pâté en remplacement du beurre. C'était passable mais franchement pas du tout français 😅

This place was meant to be excellent, but the service was bellow average. Food took too long to be served and what was supposed to be a warm dish came totally cold inside. However I don't want to blame the staff, though.

Amazing cakes and brilliant service!

Good food,good location. Better tables housekeeping is required.

There is only **1** (ONE) vegan option out of numerous bakery products. I don’t think management team of Paul bakeries can read the market and trends. A big thumbs down!👎🏼

The Chay latte was cald but nice atmosphere

Croissants were ok (nothing special though). It took very long to get my cappuccino, quite messy and scarce communication behind the counter. Can not recommend .

My absolute fav coffee and cake establishment .

Just a great place to meet up with family .Staff looked after us beautifully ..

I like their coffee and the staff are usually so friendly and helpful, however it doesn’t matter which Paul you use they have a problem retaining staff. Just when you get used to somebody and they understand your order every day and you build up a kind of rapport they disappear never to be seen again this has been my experience constantly with this organisation…..

Excellent location, the rest is Paul's usual great standard

Poor service, the cashier was very rude. Damage, the products and the place are beautiful.

Great coffee, nice friendly service. Pastries looked so nice and freshly made.

Bait and switch... Almost 100% mark up of advertised price for eating in. To be honest either price is fair, but it just leave sour taste when eating here

Best pastry especially croissants with almond and coffee everyone should give a best try.. 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😜😜😜💯💯💯💯

Helpful staff when you're in a hurry and need a cake!

Delicious bakery! The strawberry tart is amazing!

Wonderful Paul, fascinating variety of French cuisine and lovely staff.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!
