Paul Rhodes Bakery in Kensington and Chelsea

I asked if there were nuts in a muffin and was told no. Luckily my daughter didn’t feel comfortable eating it. I took a bite and it had nuts. It was very good, but wouldn’t go back.

Maravillosa panadería con literalmente docenas de selecciones que incluyen sándwiches de desayuno y una variedad de cafés y tés. Todo lo que probamos fue excepcional.

Buscando un buen lugar para una taza de té y encontré este. Hermosos pasteles, ¡tenía que tener dos! Ambiente agradable y buen personal.

Nos detuvimos aquí en nuestro camino para explorar Nottinghill y fue perfecto. Teníamos dos panecillos de salmón que tenían coberturas riquísimas y salmón genial, muy satisfactorio,. También tuvimos una gran sopa que era solo el boleto en un día frío (tomator con albahaca) y terminamos con un postre de chocolate sin harina que era increíblemente rico pero de chocolate de primera calidad, así que logramos comerlo todo. Además, tengo que admitir una mini tarta de limón realmente agradable. Consideramos este lugar como un verdadero hallazgo. (hablando de encontrar, sin embargo, el baño es en realidad una búsqueda del tesoro abajo, pero es agradable cuando llegas allí).

Un endroit agréable mais détestable pour la sympathie du personnel la patronne est toute gentille avec ses clients anglais mais en bon français on a mis plus de temps et c était insupportable pour elle vraiment nul 👎 N y allait pas !!!!

I had a very nice flat white in this lovely cafe that also does very nice cakes. Prices are good here and the staff are friendly.

We stopped here on our way to Kensington Palace. The place is very nice, clean, quiet, seems like a lovely place for a leisurely coffee. Perfect for us before visiting the Palace. We got a coffee and almond croissant - the coffee was perfect and the croissant was excellent (not too sweet and not too much powdered sugar ). I took off one point because the route to the bathroom is weird -down and around a labyrinth. Staff was friendly and helpful. On the pricey side, but in line with the area and the quality of food

Freshly baked bread, great variety of pastry, well-priced choices nice coffee. Good position. Not always easy to find a place to sit.

My wife and I went for a lovely pastry breakfast at Paul Rhodes. The staff was extremely friendly and my wife and I were seated right away with our coffees in hand. The variety of food and beverage options was solid. I would recommend to anyone staying in the Bayswater or Notting Hill area!

Worth seeking out in Notting Hill. Amongst the anonymous chains, here is an independent caring business.

Stopped off at Paul Rhodes following a trip to Kensington Palace. In need of a decent brew, we ordered a latte and flat white. Plus a sneaky Brownie. All spot on, especially the huge brownie. Lovely relaxed atmosphere & pleasant surroundings.

The food is fantastic!! The place is very nice and the breakfast there was really good!!! We highly recommend going there!!

Paul Rhodes is known for delicious baked goods, but it is obvious they apply the same high standard to everything they do ... I am writing this review so that the next time I come to London I can look up my trip advisor account and remind myself of THE ONLY place that serves decent coffee. I sent 3 coffees back at The Ivy yesterday and I threw another 2 in the bin that I had purchased from the popular chains. I enjoyed the lemon drizzle cake with my perfect skim flat white.

I popped into Paul Rhodes bakery to grab a sandwich to take away. I chose the ham sandwich for a costly £4.40. It was quite small but I was in a hurry so bought it anyway. The bread/baguette was stale and chewy, the ‘ham’ comprised every other mouthful of gristle. No flavour, hardly any mustard. I kept having to spit out the gristle as discreetly as possible (I was eating it on a bus). It is probably the most revolting sandwich I have ever eaten; sold to me by a grumpy girl. I’ll never buy anything there again.

I’ve been meaning to write this review for nearly a year - better late than never. I wanted to order two Birthday cakes. Tried calling but the phone was never answered and I emailed the company and was told to phone my local shop. So I did that and left a message ordering the two cakes on the assumption that they were too busy to answer the phone during the day but would pick up messages in the evening (that’s what voicemail is all about right?) . So I went to pick up the two cakes and they said they hadn’t received voicemail and the phone was always answered - so I showed them (from my phone) the number of times I had called etc. The was mumbling to each other and the guy who said he was the Manager smirked and generally found it amusing. I wrote to the company to complain and they offered a token gesture like a free coffee or something but as my order was in the £80 range I wasn’t impressed and didn’t take it up. In the end I went to Whole Foods and bought some fabulous cakes. I’ve not been to Paul Rhodes since. I highly recommend Whole Foods though!

The bread is rather special, also rather expensive. The tables on the raised floor at the back are the best place to sit. The cakes, filled rolls and pastries are ok; but nothing special. The loos were not clean and were in need of refurbishment.

Nice little bakery in good location. Croissants were excellent and we wish we could have bought some bread to take home.

We came across this bakery on our second day in London and returned every day while we were in Notting Hill. Best cappuccino outside of Italy. Wonderful service!

We had breakfast take away every day at the wonderful bakery during our five day stay at a nearby flat. Delicious coffee drinks and amazing bakery treats. Our favorite were the Bakewell tarts, the ham hock and cheese croissants, the chickpea and avocado sandwiches, and...

A perfect spot for a wee rest/break. Not expensive, great variety of pastries, some unusual and delicious, fresh bread, so so atmosphere. Fast service. Offers wifi access.

Visited here a couple of times and enjoyed everything I tried. Coffee was excellent and the pastries and cakes were amazing. Service was quick and friendly. Great place to stop on your way to the Notting Hill Tube Station. Very reasonably priced.

Every time I come to London, which is usually 2-3 times a year, a stop at Paul Rhodes is a must. The quality of the baking and freshness of the goods is phenomenal. Scones, tarts, coffee, or tea, cannot go wrong with any of them....

I don’t know if it was because we were first in and they were selling yesterday’s pastries but our experience was really poor. The croissant and pain au raisin were cold and stale, took one bite and left them, coffee good, service ok. The only...

Went there on a Sunday afternoon, the place was not so packed. Ordered a soy latte and roasted veggie ciabatta. Alternative milk for 50p was a bit pricey compared to some other places. Still the coffee tasted quite good so I would say it was...

Great smell of fresh bread, pastries and hot chocolate etc., but not sure if all of this should be mixed with dogs on the premises. You usually see dogs waiting outside for their owners so I was amazed to see that a customer was allowed...

Ignoring for a moment that the coffee is not in a franchise cup... heaven forbid we should go ‘off-piste’ ... the light breakfast was superb. Fresh coffee ... with taste... freshly baked croissants, bread and pastries... clean and tidy to sit with pleasant staff. Mainly...

A friend and I popped in as we were passing on our way to a walk through Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. We both had coffee (which was good) and a home made cake and a savoury scone between us. Both were delicious and just-baked...

We were in Notting Hill looking for Portobello Rd and luckily came across this place and were delighted. The aroma of the freshly baked bread and pastries drifts out the door and catches your interest. The display and array of the goodies lures you in...

Yummy baked goods and perfect coffee. Excellent spot for a quick breakfast before our London day tour.

We went for breakfast, to much choices sigh. It’s pretty to look at and high quality. Loved everything.

Wonderful place to pop in for breakfast. Great staff, wonderful coffee and pastries. Nice big windows to people watch and WiFi .

We stopped for a drink and a rest. The place was very empty and we had time to really sit and enjoy the drink and the company. Very friendly staff and the snacks looked divine. Loved the brownie.

I have been here a few times for coffee and cake but today came for lunch. They had soup but I went for a mushroom and cheese panini which was excellent quality. That and a great coffee came to about £6.50 which is cheap for...

Amazing hot spot to have a delicious breakfast in London. We love these local Bakery’s with amazing food, not cheap but really good quality

The sourdough is absolutely excellent - and the friendly staff will slice the loaf for you if you ask. I thought the pastries were okay but forgettable. Close to Kensington gardens.

Since we stayed in an AirBnB flat located nearby - and we did not want to coook - we adopted this place as one of our favorite locations to have our breakfast. In a trip of 6 days we went there three times. The coffee...

Paul Rhodes was one of our best finds on our recent trip to London. The jelly doughnut and almond croissant were our favorites but everything we had was sublime. To die for!

We decided to splurge on some bagels, croissants, sandwiches with piping hot coffee.. nice place, good service

Came in here for morning coffee. Staff always pleasant. Espresso is good and jam cookies was excellent. Two drinks and a large cookie was £5 so good value.

Very good, convenient on the main street, friendly service - wide variety of offerings - many pastries, croissants, and coffee menu. Even has "dog parking" out front!

I've been here nearly every day for the past couple of months while staying in London, usually with my 2-year-old in tow. Best coffee I've found in Notting Hill, and the croissants are great too. The bread is also delicious. I've appreciated the staff's friendliness...

We conveniently found this bakery on the corner of our street. We had a lovely healthy lunch here on one occasion and lovely barista coffee every morning. Am yet to try their sweet treats but will before heading back to Australia.

Fantastic coffee and cakes to die for. Friendly staff and reasonable prices. Enjoyed the small bites food as well. Big wow for the bakery.

We chose this place for no other reason than we were walking past and it looked quite appealing from the street. You're instantly met with a huge pastry and cake selection which you can just tell are going to taste wonderful. The only thing I...

Lovely bakery with wide variety of options, what we tried was great but they all looked great Coffee was ok , service was very friendly. Very nice place for a morning coffee and baked goods.

I went there this morning to have a coffee There are a lot of different breads and cakes. Maybe we ordered the wrong one.. I choosed the mini cheesecake and my friend a chocolate doughnut.. nothing special .. The coffee : I drunk a single...

Popped in for a cup of coffee. Nothing wrong with it, had better. The pain au chocolate was delicious.

Popped in here again today for coffee and cake. Coffee really nice quality and coconut macaroon also very good. Prices great for Notting Hill.

We stopped there for an afternoon snack after leaving Princess Diana Memorial Playground. Good selection of breads, cakes and pastries. Good cappuccino as well, reasonable prices. Seating area is small but comfy. Free wifi was a nice treat.

Lovely scones, chocolate croissant and breads. Fair prices. Great location for early morning or end of day treats.

Came i here for morning coffee and cake. Two decent double espressos and a packet of 2 Financier cakes came to £5. Quality and price good. Sandwiches look very nice, well filled and not expensive. Plenty of seats inside.

I popped into the bakery this morning and politely asked the gentleman behind the counter if I could use the toilet. He told me the toilet was for paying customers only; I thought this was very unkind I'm clearly pregnant and was wearing my 'baby...

Paul Rhodes needs to sort this place out fast .It looks very dirty. The main serving area is filthy and door hanging off the cupboards etc. smashed floor tiles and you can see they are not cleaning "deeply" once a month etc . Food is...

The layout of this place makes me nervous.. it's like all over the place. The toilets are down some stairs, the seating at the back is up some very steep steps and the seating to the side is all jumbled together. It's not easy to...

Every time I go to meet my friend at Notting Hill we go to Paul Rhodes bakery. Lovely little cafe on the corner of a busy street but so comfortable and cosy inside. The latte is superb, the pastries - yum ( shout out to...

Paul Rhodes is great for local people picking up bread and the odd sandwich. I wouldn't make an effort to go out of the way for the coffees or food there. Its always busy with tourists before they go into Kensington Gardens. Staff change weekly,...

Perfect. Next to our airbnb. Great Coffee and cake. The GF chocolate cake and scone was good. Coffee is strong too for a 6oz. Feels a little French in Notting Hill.

I have walked passed here many times and decided to give it a go today. The first impression was not great as the table was dirty but we sat down and I bought 2 drinks and a Danish pastry. The hot chocolate was quite good...

I have been a regular at Paul Rhodes for over two years now, and I have to congratulate the team for delivering consistently good service, delicious coffee and tasty pastries. The guys and girls always welcome you with a smile, take your coffee upstairs and...

I visit this cafe regularly because it is local, not because it is specially good. Coffee and hot chocolate is acceptable. Cakes and sandwiches are over priced for what they are. Seating available but not much. Service varies from friendly to surly depending who is...

We pretty much visited this place everyday as the coffee was good and they had a bunch of good baked goods.

Shout out to the cheerful, funny barrista who had to deal with a sweaty, distracted, post-run me as I could barely speak two words and couldn't remember where I'd hidden my card (hint: pocket). Their scones are also delicious, and you should try their croissant....

Fantastic coffee, and really fresh bagels with pastrami and gherkins. Staff are friendly and polite. A great place for a tourist looking for a quick and tasty bite to eat at very reasonable prices

We use this cafe often. Service is brisk and friendly. Coffee and hot chocolate are slightly above average, but snacks and cakes, which are good quality, are not cheap.

Great sandwiches etc for when we needed a quick lunch. Cakes & tarts looked amazing. Layered carrot cake moist, full of flavour, with fresh citrus zest. One of the best. Forgot my usual request that my flat white come out extra hot. But that's how...

I used to live in Notting Hill and went a few times in Paul Rhodes as it was so close to my home and looked so tempting from outside. Any time I walked in I was so disappointed by their staff. The staff is not...

Great, fresh tasting, and reasonable value. Good gluten free options. The nut-free, flour-free, chocolate cake is amazing.

This bakery, not to be confused with the popular French bakery PAUL, is a gem of Notting hill. The vibe is friendly and neighbourhood centric, and the products are surprisingly good - specifically the pastry items and sandwiches, which I'd rate as good or better...

This bakery has an excellent and convenient location, on the main street of Notting Hill, going towards Kensington Gardens. The bakery is often busy and there can be queues, but the wait is worthwhile as the breads are fresh. Our children particularly love the cheese...

Since our hotel offered terrible breakfast we decided to stop somewhere on our way to the subway in the morning. This place happened to be it. It was nice and quiet and had a nice atmosphere. The sandwiches were delicious and there were so many...

I read in a book that they have the best cheesecake of London, and I've not tasted a better one yet. Excellent brownies too and gorgeous handcrafted bread, that's why they are so renowned.

Terrific service, fresh quality breads and pastries, my 4th time here, and will always come back. For takeaway or sit in.

If you're just popping in for a takeout I wholeheartedly recommend it. Absolutely gutted about the service because I had the best carrot cake I've ever had here very moist, full of walnuts and generous lashings of cream cheese layers. But as I came in...

Love almost everything about this place, great sandwiches, breads, cakes, pastries and coffee. I make sure I visit it every week if possible.

Looking from the window in, and we knew we had to get something. Looks yummy from the outside, looks even better from the inside.

My favourite coffee in Notting Hill, friendly staff and a good selection of sweet and savoury bites make this a great place to pop in before work or during a lunch break. Be aware that waiting times can be a little long during busy periods,...

Comfy place to have a bite. We had some tasty meringues and doughnuts. Coffee was excellent too. Not cheap though.

Fresh pastries, friendly staff, and an abundant selection. Coffee is so-so but the pastries and breads are pretty good.

Came across this bakery a wide range of breads and sweet foods. I choose the Ham and Cheese croissant also had a latte.. Very nice and the coffee was made by the new manager who has a lovely persona about her the coffee was fantastic....

Good option for a breakfast, specially for those Who live or work nearby. Some options of cofee and juices and many sanduiches, specially croissant.

Good selection of cakes and coffee. The cafe is handy between Hyde Park an Notting Hill tube. A good place to stop for half an hour to refuel. We used it as shelter from the rain and were happy with the choice.

I've heard so many good things about Paul Rhodes and hear about town they cater to some prestigious establishments. So on that basis I gave them a try. I must admit the staff were fairly friendly, and products on sale looked appealing. However when my...

I have been several times a week working at one of this shop's upstairs tables and have nothing but wonderful things to say. They are always welcoming and the sweet and savoury things are delicious, plus coffee is excellent.

The bread was good, not great. The eclair was good, and better than Pastiserie Valerie which you see all over London. I stop here instead of either Starbucks or PV for a treat.

I've rented a place just around the corner and this bakery has been on my daily routine! Their scones was so yummy that i kept coming back everyday!
