PAUL Holland Park in Camden

Decent coffee shop with delicious cakes. We sat outside and watched the world go by. Must mention the decaf latte was delicious 😋

We stopped here for a quick breakfast before hitting up the tourist spots. Good pastries, good sandwiches, and we liked it so well we stopped back on our last morning in London a few weeks later.

Great place for coffee stop, literally 10 steps from Holland Park tube. We all had coffee & various cakes, all delicious. Everyone we met was pleasant & friendly, no complaints from us!

I ordered two cappuccinos priced at almost £4 each. For this price they arrived in paper cups but more disappointedly the only resemblance to coffee was that the drinks were hot, brown and wet. The flavour of coffee was almost imperceptible. When I pointed this out to the server she simply said this was a common complaint but it could be fixed with an extra shot and of course extra charge! To me this is like buying a new car and then being told that the wheels are extra. In all a disappointing experience. Paul may be well known for its good bread and cakes but certainly needs to pay more attention to its coffee offering.

The food is quite good but the customer is so bad. I was there but no one to serve so that I said “ Excuse me” for two times. I seems these staffs are not good enough under the training. As I am the person from hospitality, I would recommend to have better customer services. Thanks:)

Great place! The pastries were delicious, but the best part was the service. I made the fatal mistake of not checking or asking about allergies upfront (i have nut allergy so this is obviously my responsibility), but Bianca solved it all with a big smile. She checked every item down to the detail, and helped me find what i wanted, which ended up being the chocolate eclair (very good). Therefore, my boyfriend and I had a very relaxing break after a long walk. Recommend!

Doesn't accept cash. This annoys me so much. When did cash become an invalid form of payment? Rediculous. Pizza was nice but was very annoyed not to be able to use cash.

Great place for lunch. You can either dine inside or outside. I had a baguette sandwhich and a strawberry tart. Everything was absolutely yummy!

We had a coffee sitting outside which was nice then we looked for some food to take away. We settled on a baguette. Unfortunately they just don't do the range that they used to so no smoked salmon or brie and as I don't eat ham I was stuck with either chicken or mozzarella..I went for chicken which was very nice but I would have liked more choice.

Who would have thought that a small patisserie squashed between a Starbucks and a Pret A Manger near Hollan Park tube could prove to be such a splendid haven after a busy morning. Good Coffee and really Outstanding Hot Chocolate were accompanied by scrumptious patisseries and truly French quality filled baguettes. Congratulations to a helpful bubbly crew behind the counter. Well done All. David & Elaine

No complaints with the food, we had various baguette sandwiches and sausage rolls, all excellent. However, trying to cram customers around the card point area while waiting to pay or collect in order to serve quicker is not ideal.

We usually come to this cafe when in the area. I had a white americano which had good flavour and was strong enough despite being served in a large cup.

We wanted a takeaway lunch so bought various baguettes. I had a mozzarella baguette with tomato and pesto which was excellent, the bread was crusty and tasty and there was plenty of filling.

We used to love Paul very much, and handout weekly, as many friends are retired, so like to meet up and chat. Since last year they cancelled card collection but use only Apps, most of our group moved to Costa, as Costa and Cafe Nero still keep both card stamps and apps. Too much Apps in mobile, take out space and slow down phone process also run out battery too fast, so we do not like to install any more app, If Paul only target on young people to age 50 customers, and do not care of those retired people who used simple mobile, or not familiar with smart phone to install their apps, then we can all moved to other coffee shop or restaurants. Food was okay, desserts used to be better.

We had a flat white take away. The coffee was very strong and tasted good which is what you expect from this quality chain.

So my mom is on vacation in London, and we want to have a latte and a de caffeinated coffee. Yes I am French but I’ve lived in China, Dubai and Switzerland where I studied my courses in English. Because I couldn’t say de caffeinated coffee properly, one of the staff asked in front of everybody « which language I was speaking? » and before I even answered another one said « French » . All of them looking at them like I’m very dumb. Really offended me. I worked in F&B and I know the service you need to give to your clients, either you’re working at Paul’s, either you’re working in a 5 stars hotel. I found it very unprofessional to ask such a question instead of being patient, and just simply ask again. Very disappointed, so we went to Starbucks next door, where the lady was very patient and very nice.

Fomos à essa cafeteria tomar o café da manhã. É uma rede francesa que tem em varios lugares de Paris e Europa. Valeu a pena. Pedi um croq Monsieur com queijo de cabra e espinafre que estava show, além de uma quiche.

It’s a good place to grab coffee croissants or a cake. The flavours are authentic and this place is always busy though it’s not cheap. However the staff while friendly can’t speak very good English so your having to repeat yourself several times when you order

I have visisted Paul over the years however I shall not be coming back. The coffee was tepid, the sandwich was so tired that it was not a pleasure to eat and the bathroom was a disgrace, no soap and in need of a very...

I usually like visiting this place on my way home. However, I’ve just had badly warmed up salmon quiche and cold coffee, but that wasn’t the worst of it. The signs in the bathroom say it’s regularly checked, but let us know if there’s anything...

This place has delicious food and good coffee to offer! I stumbled upon the cafe by chance and had an amazing croque Florentine for breakfast which exceeded all expectations!

Great place to grab a coffee and a pastry, or sit back and relax. Their sandwiches are tasty and feel fresh and healthy!

We enjoy this coffee shop. The staff are all really warm and friendly and we can relax in there. Paul's is always consistent and good.

You can find Paul in many countries in Europe. I enjoyed everything I tried here, from pastries to sandwiches. I always keep Paul as an option on the go!

Went there every morning on my trip. Close to the underground, good coffee and the best french croissants. The chouquettes, are very good. Not expensive, about 3 or 4 pounds for a breakfast. Please try.

After strolling Holland Park, we stopped here in the cold for some coffee. The service was fine, when we took the coffees to our table and tasted them - they were burnt. we couldnt be bothered to take them back. Evening caffeine intake ruined!

Called into this small Paul cafe for lunch. The seating area is small and fairly cramped but there are a few tables outside and the whole of Holland Park just across the road for fine days. The chicken soup with a wedge of baguette was...

A small place which has a big reputation, which it lived up to. The coffee was excellent, the salmon & spinach quiche was very good. We had breakfast here 2 days running as we were going to the tube station. It gets very busy and...

Nice little cake shop with a good selection of cakes and rolls. Coffee was just okay. I certainly wouldn't have coffee here again. Pleasant service.

I used to be a regular customer at Paul since Ive moved to London. However todays situation made me not to wish return here ever again. Ive decided to have a lunch on site rather than take away, and it was a nightmare. I was...

We ordered sandwiches from Paul's. The restaurant was extremely busy and we had to stand and wait for a table. At first we thought to leave but then we realized the food was just that good! After only 20 minutes a table opened up and...

We chanced by this bakery on our recent trip & thought we would stop for a quick bite. It didn't disappoint- there was a huge variety of food to choose from all at fantastic prices. I had the ham & cheese baguette & lemon meringue...

The staff were enthusiastic, all busy behind the counter. We had coffee and a small cake while seated on a slightly raised area. Many people were queueing for drinks and cakes to take away, a very busy place. I noticed one customer had a dog...

I had a lovely ham and cheese baguette followed by a to die for giant Palmier pastry. Setting is very amiable and there were lots of yummy cakes to choose from. Coffee was excellent.

The food always seems very yummy and I've been there a few times for takeaway or stayed for a quick cup of tea. You must try the cheese fougasse. It is very tasty. Unfortunately the service is not amazing. There always seem to be a...

We didn't have a good experience when we popped into Paul's for coffee and croissants. The food was fine but none of the tables were wiped over during the time we were there and the chairs were covered in crumbs that we had to dispose...

They do indeed, and never fail to please. Amazing consistency of taste and style, meticulously followed any time, anywhere, be it in their home city Lille or Paris, on Marylebone High Street or here, just off the Holland Park tube station. Oh so delicious!

A great spot for a late afternoon coffee and a front line view on St. Paul's Cathedral. Large cups of cappuccino - very good taste - with well baked pastries, simple but delicious.

Very disappointing! Was expecting it to be amazing from the view out front! Selected a ham and cheese baguette which i thought was going to be warm and they didn't even offer to warm up and was very busy so ate cold which was disgusting!...

I have been in to get takeaway cakes on quite a few occasions ( I love the pistachio macaroons). Today we took the opportunity to sit in as it was my partners birthday. The staff were Friendly although did forget the water we ordered alongside...

We have bought food here twice this week. I tastes very good. Today we bought 2 quiches, 2 strawberry tarts, and 2 Palmiers. All tasted excellent BUT instead of 2 tarts we were only given 1 and surprise! No receipt was given!!! Hmmmmm?

Everyone always raves about how good the food and coffee here are but I don't get it. My croissant was dry as desert sand my coffee was so average. I felt like I was paying for a joke.

We decided the pre order two of picnics and an extra salad for us all to share. We had plenty of food and we couldn't finish it all! All of the food was fresh and delicious. I loved how you got a little picnic bag...

Excellent food. The picnic was a nice way to get a fulfilling lunch or dinner at a reasonable price. Order ahead of time if you want to use it as an early dinner as inventory is low. Breads are wonderful. Some have indicated that their...

You cannot walk past this place without walking in (not good if you are on a diet), place is busy and full of people, places to sit outside and watch the world go by in Holland Park Avenue, Staff are friendly and helpful and hardworking,...

Heavenly desserts and amazing sandwiches! We were walking back to our flat from Portobello Market and found this bakery on Holland Park. Reasonable prices and delicious.

Great service and just pure food heaven , enjoy what you have always dreamed of , but you may have to end up walking the rest of your stay , to loose what you eat

We met friends for breakfast here who live in Chelsea, OMG i wish I lived in London if only to come to Paul for breakfast, they do the BEST coffee in London and their almond croissants are to die for. The guy who served us...

I've never seen a hot chocolate as thick and wonderful as I had at Paul. Everything was wonderful and I would highly recommend for lunch or afternoon snack.

Good place to load up on goodies before getting on your train. Lots to choose from, and the sandwiches are fresh.

There is a new Paul's patisserie opened at tower 42 it is very friendly all of them are good but this one goes out of their way to be helpful I take my granddaughter there every Friday we have coffee and a baby chino I...

We visited this patisserie on our day out in London. It has a very attractive design and lovely selection of tarts and cakes. The assortment is perhaps not as large as other similar cafes but the eclairs "du Paris" we had were perfect. I'd definitely...

We ate at the branch in Holborn, l understand that there are many branches in the City. Pastries produced just like in Paris, how welcome, they do also serve coffees and other drinks, and the staff offer a great smile as they go about their...

I promised a few of my clients a coffee when calling into them so I stopped and brought them from here... One word WOW the quality of the coffee was suburb, the staff were so helpful too. The beautiful cakes that were on display is...

"Paul, Maison de Qualite, Foundee en 1889". An 'upmarket' (ish) coffee shop chain of French origin serving coffee, pastries, croissants, rolls etc. We tried a number of them on a morning/afternoon refreshments break basis. Paul Strand, 79 The Strand. Our first encounter. Excellent. Food good...

Pauls was my favourite patisserie chain. Unfortunately I live close to the branch in Holland Park, which is poorly managed. The product is excellent and they had a refit some time ago, which was great as now the space is way better organised. However there...

We had the set menu. Was ok but wouldn't hurry back. Food was average pate was nothing special as was the chicken. Probably wouldn't return as there's better places to eat in London. One plus point was the lovely staff .

We used the Paul in Paternoster Square late this afternoon. Even though there were only 4 ladies in the queue in front of us, it still took 10 minutes to be served. The staff were totally disorganised and the man behind the counter was off...

We kept going back to Paul's for pastries and were never disappointed. This patissiere is a gem. No one will be disappointed.

Love the pistachio macaroon shakes, Fraisier and Framboisier. Did not like the Opera. Their drinks and baguettes are nice but pricy.

This page seems to be a placeholder for all Paul's locations in London, so I'll provide my review for the ones in Canary Wharf (one in the main mall and one in Jubilee place). The pastries at Paul are excellent. Among the best you can...

Good food and a convenient location. The food is decidedly French, and very good. The pastries are excellent and the sandwiches are amazing.

Pauls is popular at lunch time and with good reason - bread with character, interesting and fresh sandwich fillings, good coffee and a very tempting selection of pastries. Its a little more pricey than a lot of cafes or chains, but worth spending that bit...

A group of friends waiting to travel on the Eurostar to Paris decided to take a snack break. Whilst the coffee was very good, some of the pasties were a little stale... perhaps a day or so old?

One day while my mum and I where strolling through Covent garden I stumbled upon this gorgeous little patisserie. My mum and I went in just for a coffee, but then we discovered this gem of a place and saw the Gallic interior that we...

Great place for breakfast. Love the poached eggs, pastry selection and bread. Good service. Well mannered staff and the cafe is very clean.

Busy cold lunchtime whilst out xmas shopping and we passed by this buzzing venue. soup option sounded good so had this poulet provencal soup with bread followed by a slice of normandy flan. food really tasty and well presented. hadn't realised it was a queue...

This review is for the Canary Wharf store only. I usually love Paul, and the staff is usually very nice and helpful. I've been there with my dad, which is allergic to dairy product and I ask if we could have a sandwich with no...

It is a chain...and it is a chain as it should be...consistent quality and always well done. We look forward to getting some of the best breads/pastries in London. I love the seasonal options and so always find a favorite and something to distract. (the...

Had the time to take a breakfast stop here and it is always a safe bet when traveling between France and England

Don't you just love it when you find a place to eat that just hits the spot? That's how I feel about the Paul Patisserie on Holland Park Avenue. I was drawn in by the pastry display, but when I got inside I saw the...

We arrived at this Patiserie and had a great lunch with excellent coffees, the bread and croissants look great and the pastries are to die for. Highly recommend a visit for a snack, lunch or just an excuse to eat.

My friends stayed in the St. Germain des Arts part of Paris. There was a Paul's within a block of where we stayed. We felt like great American explorers when we found the most exquisite croissants we had ever tasted. We made it a point...

This chain has an exceptional focus on repeatable best class experiences when it comes to pastries. The food is a delight, fresh and served in the Parisian way - even in the UK All they need to do is start a chain with strategically placed...

What can you say about Paul, is just great. Bread, sandwiches, pastries, cakes, everything is just delicious. Paul cakes are present in all my special events. They are effortless classy and fine, not to mention how they taste. Thanks Paul for being in London!

I have never, ever had pastries like I had here. Not even in France! I ate a lot, I had a Fraisier Cake, a HUGE chocolate Macaroon and a perfectly nice coffee. I have to say this was one of the best snack time meal...

Delish fresh sandwiches and sweets. Great to take back to your hotel/b&b room for a meal or snack or pack in a backpack for take-along breakfast, lunch, or dinner while seeing the sites.

very good food for a "chain" cafe. Baguettes are crisp and delicious and the pain au chocolat -- yum!

Nice to sit and have a great cake and coffee . Better than the other main stream coffee shops. Open seating area so loads of room

Paul offers great pastries, bread and cakes in London. We have visited a number of their branches during our visit, and were impressed with their products as well as service. Reasonable prices too compared to some other top patisseries in London. Would recommend them to...

Went into Paul's on Kings Road, London and was delighted that they have Mille Feuille, my all time favourite pastry that's not that easy to come by. The GBP4.50 sandwich and drink sign turned out to be only for take-away and soft drinks, so i...

Best french bread any where in London, it's a chain but better than any regular chain. I buy my breads every week at Paul Patisserie

Good price / fast food service Close to st Pancras hotel It's a famous patisery shop originally from francé

was a time when visited daily - no more - staff verge on agressive and are down right rude. Coffee is certainly worst in Station.
