Paul - Fleet Street in City of London, Westminster

Came here after work today (30/09) at 5:30 pm and the service was very fast and the employee was very lovely. Will definitely come back for the amazing service, I unfortunately didn’t get his name! Pastries are super delish as well.

Rating just because of food quality. Service was great and friendly. The bread of the sandwich clearly isn’t fresh, Likely made the day before or it could be that it is bread that has been frozen. I’m expecting fresh bread. The baguette was dry chewy and not crunchy as it should be. I went for lunch around 12.30pm, very disappointing

this location will only take card, not cash and have no signage to show the fact - food is tasty, but over priced, and staff have hands tied saying they are not allowed to put out a small sign to indicate that the purchases are card only. Very frustrating, queuing to then be told this information, shan't go again and spend my money in a location that cannot support the customer. Many London locations are like this, but not all - and the one's that are (including a cheap greasy sppon I use), all have a sign to inform customers.... why can PAUL not manage that??

Amazing sandwiches and pastrys. Definitely on the list to visit. Recommended

I don't like the attitude of the guy who served me today. He was quite cocky and treated me like I could barely speak any English. DO NOT JUDGE PEOPLE BY THEIR SKIN COLOUR. I do not look like 'typical' British but I do speak English. (See, I'm writing this review in English)

I went to get a haircut nearby and I ended up in a pie 😡😡😡

I was there on 07/02/2024 at around 15:30 and was lucky it wasn't crowded so I could eat an apple tart and drink tea in peace. The girls were very nice and conveyed their good mood to me.

A bit expensive. Tasty but not great. It's not a bad place and overall I'm happy that we had our lunch there. Staff are helpful and friendly, some doesn't speak good English but that's French bakery after all 😅 I would expect bigger croissants, tastier coffee and fourth bar stool. Or keep everything as it is but for cheaper price. I would back and I can recommend this place to other hungry tourists 😄

Good food, great, quick service. Sandwiches and salads are good

One of the best hot chocolates I have ever had. Would highly recommend it.

These are the impressions of a Japanese person who came from Japan. The clerk was very kind and explained the bread to me. I made a purchase of about 1,143 yen and ate while sitting on a chair inside the store. There were many stylish breads that are not found in Japan.

Visited today to pass some time, food and pastries were amazing and not dry like a lot of the nearby cafe. There was only 2 staff I could see and 1 delivery man who delivered the fresh food. They were hardworking and had everything under control. The polish woman with blonde hair (she had a black and white stripy top on) was very friendly. Maybe The coffee could have been warmer but I loved it anyway.

The pain au chocolat was very dry and I suspect not very fresh, much below Paul's standards and price range

Quick in and out service Great selection of cakes, pastries and sandwiches etc

Popped in for a coffee to take out. Probably the worst I've had for a long time. Sorry Paul but for £4 it should be better. I'll go to Pret next time.

The staff are friendly and went above and beyond to help me with my vegetarian meal for the TooGoodToGo magic bag. This for sure is a fab service which I haven’t received in any of the Paul stores in London. Thanks to the two lady staffs who were nice and kind to me.

У Ловетт самые вкусные пирожки. Всегда свежие и сочные. В каждом пирожке сюрприз перстень, запонка, сережка

I hope there are no pies with people. Well, I don’t see barbershop around ;)

It's a very tiny place. Any more than 3 people in the queue, and it feels overcrowded.

Love Paul everywhere and food and coffee here great also. No tables and limited bar seating and bit crammed overall, but great for takeaway.

Really friendly staff, and the coffee was delicious

Very nice, shame no halal or kosher meat is sold. The special sandwich offers are gone, this is awful.

I go there often using too good to go app and the bag is always full of delicacies, thank you!! Ladies behind the counter are super friendly too!

Small but very efficient and good service

I'm so happy Paul is next to my office! Great coffee, great cakes, great sandwiches and quiches. The staff is very friendly.

Nice baguette, but to small for the price

PAUL es una cadena familiar de panaderías / tiendas de delicatessen francesas. Los precios son muy razonables (para Londres) y los productos horneados y sándwiches son excepcionales. Todos los panes y pasteles se hornean en la casa todos los días. Pret A Manger está bien, pero ve a PAUL si es posible.

Incredibly slow service, staff behind the counter ignore you instead of apologising for the wait. Had one girl behind the counter wafting around trying to look like she was busy doing something when in fact she just didn't want to serve. Walked out without buying anything.

To have this place next to the office is more than great. It's very difficult to find good bread in London, but this place has it. As well, it's where you're gonna find the best Palmiers, a must try treat.

Any place that allows you to sit inside but only gives you a disposable cup is part of a wider problem.

Mi pequeña losa de chocolate con leche al chiflado era que sombra de blanco que escaras sucede al chocolate mal almacenados. El caballero del mostrador usando el término "qualite" en su delantal intentó decirme que era perfectamente bien y estaba a la defensiva, en negación y discutió hasta rescatado por su compañero. Una mala experiencia en un lugar normalmente agradable.

Un toque francés en medio de la Ribera. Excelente desayuno y almuerzo. opciones También me encanta el link para el postre

I love this chain. Simple and good. There is not a bad sandwich or pastry. My only complaint is that they often run out of soup and do not have it at all in the summer.

Un posto gradevole dove fermarsi per un buon dolce e non solo. Personale gentile,cortese e disponibile

Great place to grab a yummy sandwich or cake. Some counter seating but mainly take out. Very friendly staff who get through the que quickly with a smile. What little wait you might experience is well worth it the food is fresh and well presented. The reasonable pricing is improved upon with their loyalty scheme. Well worth a try

Boa opção para um café rápido, brunch ou lanche da tarde, com boas opções de bolos e doces, em um ambiente agradável.

Called into this branch for a quick Coffee and Pastry. The coffee it put it mildly was tasteless! The pastry was good, nothing out of the ordinary. I've used Paul Restaurants in Paris and always been pleased but this particular branch let the brand down. On the positive side the staff did offer to change my coffee after I complained but I didn't have time unfortunately. I will try other Paul outlets in London as this might have been a one off, hopefully.

フリートストリートのグローバルロンドンカレッジの隣にあるPaulです。 若いお客さんが多いので他のPaulの店舗に比べて ポーションが大きい気がします。 バゲットサンドは勿論お勧めですがサラダもお勧めですよ。

Love the cakes at this place always taste so nice especially the chocolate one. Always displayed nicely. Staff pleasant and welcoming, always service with a smile.

Sempre buoni i panini da Paul. Un rapido e veloce spuntino in un ambiente gradevole va benissimo. La scelta è ampia per tutti i gusti. Paul è una catena francese ma molto diffusa anche in UK ; un po' paninoteca e un po' pasticceria. Personale giovane molto cordiale. Lo consiglio al posto del solito fast food ... sicuramente più europeo e più vicino a noi italiani.

Great welcome from a fun team serving well made, fresh, good lunchtime food. Speedy service and reasonably priced too! Well worth signing up for the loyalty card for offers and free deals. And did I mention cakes??

I always like it here, the courts, the old press offices and the inns. In the area is Dr Johnston's House which is a real gem. It's also rarely busy so you get a feel of the old London and can easily have a day out just in this square mile.

Fantastic coffees and pastries - I always go there for my wake up coffee! The down side is they always try and give you a loyalty card but you have to register on a website which is a pain!

The quality of food in a Paul outlet is beyond question. However, the service let this branch down on this occasion. Again, I would have awarded it a "Good" had it been available. Average is too low, Very Good is not apt for this visit. It isn't a restaurant as such, but somewhere to sit down with a coffee and a pastry and watch the world go by.

Ottimo cibo ed ottima qualità...vi consiglio il sacco per il pic nic fornito di tutto: tovaglia, bicchieri, posate ed ottimo cibo!! ad un prezzo giustissimo! bravi!

Paul è una catena si sa, ma rispetto ad altre la qualità media dei prodotti da bere e da mangiare a me sembra decisamente migliore. Il Paul in questione è gestito da ragazze italiane molto cortesi. Se vi capita, andateci a fare colazione.

Wir haben hier immer gefrühstückt. So viele Köstlichkeiten, man weiß gar nicht was man zu erst essen soll.

Bonne boulangerie de quartier, pour un petit déjeuner à prendre sur place ou à emporter. La vitrine est alléchante. Des gâteaux juste parfaits à l'oeil (car pas achetés). Un choix varié de pains et de pâtisseries.

A metà tra la panetteria ed il bar Paul vi offre una buona opportunità per fare una bella colazione all'Italiana. Brioches e torte fresche sono eccellenti ed il servizio molto cordiale. Consigliato! Sicuramente maggiore qualità rispetto alle catene tipo starbucks o costa.* Se l'hai trovata utile, dai un voto alla mia recensione *

This is a great place to pick up some breakfast. Though their food is rather pricy (especially in England as opposed to France), it's absolutely delicious. The quiches are especially good, and don't forget to try the raspberry tart! Overall, the quality of food is excellent.

Excellent service, excellent baguette

This place really saved our day on a London trip in February. We were walking around the Fleet Street area on a Saturday morning and nothing was open. We knew Paul's from earlier visits to their Covent Garden shop and in France. Their food is just delicious though usually rather pricy but you know that you get excellent value for you money - hence it's okay. Especially the bread is fantastic. It's miles away from the usual tasteless bakery - or even worse - supermarket things.

Excellent sambos. Especially the Tuna baguette.

They are ALL devine. The cappuccino is the definition of decadence and the pistachio macaroons make me smile.. but please, everthything here is worth a try.

not exactly a restaurant,but great sandwiches
