What a great place for breakfast in London. Delicious sandwiches, sweets and coffee. Recommended

Nice convenient spot for fresh hot or cold sandwiches, quiche, pastries, croissants and more. Friendly employees, especially the young man who doesn't want his picture taken. He's great, give him a raise. 😊 Usually pretty busy, but service is quick and I've always been able to find a table. Eat in or take away.

Eating here in the morning rush is a miserable experience. Expect to stand for 15 minutes waiting for your order. Then if you are lucky enough to find a free table, you will need to clear the last customer's dirty dishes yourself.

It is a very quiet, cozy and pleasant place to have breakfast. They have breakfast options with bread, sweets and fruit. The coffee is very good. My daughter loved the pain au chocolat. Everything is delicious, 100% recommended for Spaniards who are traveling in the area

Stayed at a local hotel and visited 3 days in a row between 8 and 10am. Had a similar experience each time - the pastries and coffee were delightful but the service varied from chaotic to poorly trained staff not knowing what to do. Once a lineup begins it becomes a mess. Witnessed someone taking a drink prepared for someone else as they had grown so impatient waiting. If you can accept the poor service you'll keep coming back for the great offerings (like I did)!

This wasn’t my first visit but was the last, waited over 20 minutes for a coffee whilst I ate my quiche that never came, the man that taken my order seemed oblivious that I hadn’t received it and no obvious communication or organisation between them plus the woman making coffees didn’t say a word, Even though I’d paid for it. I asked for a refund as I had to get going to an event. Got a sorry off one of the other staff and offered a cake that I didn’t really want as nobody knew how to do a refund. I was still technically done out of money. Also, I observed the woman making coffees make a drink and consume it behind the counter in front of customers which I don’t find professional coming from someone that has many years of working in a similar environment.

PAUL Earl’s Court is an exceptional bakery with top-quality pastries and coffee. The atmosphere is warm, and the service is outstanding. A special thanks to Madina for her kindness and professionalism—she truly enhances the experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for the best French bakery in London!

PAUL Earls Court is a high-quality French patisserie and bakery, conveniently located opposite Earls Court Station. It offers a delicious selection of freshly baked breads, pastries, sandwiches, and salads. Popular choices include their signature almond croissants, crisp baguettes, and expertly crafted coffees. The welcoming ambiance and authentic French flavors make it a great spot for breakfast, lunch, or a sweet treat. As a popular location, it does experience high footfall, so be prepared for a queue during peak hours.

Be careful. Take the receipt and check what you paid so much for. To compare. I come to a cafe to relax and have fun, but I get screwed because every time they add an extra product, and then they say sorry, but we can't give you your money back because the transaction has already happened.

I bought macaroons ( overpriced) and they were sitting in same window next to sandwiches of sea food , tuna , cheese n more . When I tried to take a bite , it has a taste of refrigerated sandwich of all , no taste of macaroons. They shouldn't be priced more than £ 1. They are made of the colouring n essence of flavours and leave your mouth with red or green colours. Paul is so over priced that it cost a day wage for a bread or sandwich n coffee . Who wants to pay £4 + for a rotten macaroon. I was home and couldn't bother to go back n return that rotten fowl smell macaroons. I wish some price control body can check their quality and tell them to stop robbing poor public 😡😡😡😡😡

Really liked Paul before but last time I was very disappointed by the bread quality - it was wet, the crust fell off the bread and the taste was awful. Considering the price of the bread and the brand reputation I think this quality should be unacceptable (and I believe it’s rather easy to implement simple quality control gates). Hope this review will nudge Paul to fix this problem.

I became a victim of theft here on 17 Jan 2025. Persons who sat next to me on the right side of the sofa stole my bag, shockingly in my presence. I felt the staff did not take the incident seriously when I reported this. For example, when I spoke to them initially in panic, I was barely given a glimpse. Nobody asked me whether I need help or even come outside the counter. The lady there was the only person who responded to me with some seriousness - that the security camera footage will be provided to the police when I asked for it. I believe there should be better customer/ security services at Paul should such incident takes place. I did not leave my bag unattended as it was behind my back/ literally next to my arm and partially tied to it, with all zippers closed. I am writing here to let other visitors know that they should be on guard at all times here. I believe this is the right thing, as I see a lot of customers have bags and other belongings right beside them or behind them as I did on 17 Jan. Any one of them could have been and can be a victim of theft as well.

Good food at normal prices compared to what's around. Helpful and courteous staff. As a Neapolitan, the espresso coffee is not like ours but it is still tasty, one of the best I have tasted in London. Unfortunately the prices are average so I didn't expect a lower bill than what I paid.

If people ask for coffee to go, they expect to have it instantly! I ordered a skinny cappuccino for takeaway and didn’t even request it extra hot, but the coffee was scalding and burned my tongue. The barista needs more training. On a positive note, the pastries are nice.

Went in on a Thursday at around 2.30pm, paid extra to drink in, but had to wait and bring my own drinks and food to the table. When she finished making my coffees she just dumped it and left it for me to pick up. Went to the toilet, was an absolute mess with no tissue Inside. Had to ask the woman for some tissue, she just placed it in my hand as if I was supposed to put it in the tissue holder for her. After service and seeing how disgusting the toilets were, I will not be coming back. There are plenty of other coffee shops in the area.

We stopped by Paul, a French pastry shop, while looking for something tasty. I tried the apple turnover and a cappuccino. The pastry was fresh with a nice flaky crust, but the filling was more of an apple sauce rather than apple chunks, which I personally prefer. It was flavorful, leaning more tart than sweet. There’s a small seating area in the back for those who want to dine in. The shop offers a wide variety of pastries and sandwiches, all of which looked delicious. The interior is nicely decorated, creating a cozy atmosphere.

We stayed in London for 4 nights in a hotel without breakfast. Got into “Paul” by chance and didn’t change again. Best coffee, good food and great service staff. Yes, it is actually very busy in the morning. But for me it's a sign that the café is very popular. I don't understand some of the reviews. By the way, the croissants are absolutely great. I live right on the French border and think I have really good comparison options. I could not find any racist employees as specifically described in a recession. Almost all employees wear headscarves or are dark-skinned, are super nice and extremely friendly. 😘 Recommended. 👍👍👍

Got tuna sandwich and jam filled mini donuts. The tuna sandwich is nothing special just tastes like a regular sandwich but the bread is really tough and hard to chew which is kinda annoying. The jam filled donuts are delish and the dough is bouncy and melt in the mouth. Gets super busy during lunch time and is veryyyy loud and their charging ports don’t work so not a lot of work can be done if you wanna work.

Overall great cafe. Food always tastes fresh and delicious albeit being on the pricey end, lots of seating, free wifi, a toilet. The atmosphere is so-so, but its a reliable spot for catch-ups or good food, and its open until 10PM at night which makes it a lovely and quiet space to work in the evenings. The chocolate cake is so good!! Light for a brownie but indulgent for a cake and really creamy. I recommend their sandwiches! Really lovely, and the hot chocolate is good too but quite indulgent. I will say that on the third occasion I got a pastel de nata, it was quite charred. And one downside is that the prices for eating in are much higher than takeout.

3 of us. Walk-ins. The doorman invited us in and good that he did. Sat outside. The 2 ladies loved their cocktails- San Miguel and one Picante. They loved it enough to have two of them each. I had the red wine from Mexico- where else in London (or even UK) can you get that. Pretty nice. For food we had the two of the Esquite (sweet corn salad- spicy)- super nice, three of the fish tacos and one of the Cameron - prawn tacos. Excellent service. Great ambience.
