Picolo Bar in City of London, Westminster

Wonderful cosy snack bar, with all sorts of cooked food and cold snacks. Hearty breakfasts and other meals. A great range of sandwiches, rolls and pastries, especially the amazing home-made rock cakes. Excellent quality coffee and always a warm friendly welcome from the staff. An old fashioned establishment that will be sorely missed if it has to fold.

One of the best breakfast places I’ve ever went to had amazing food, and the waiter was so nice and restaurant is open six days of the week. Plus for four of us it was around 30 to 35 pounds for a whole meal for us all.

For over 40 years, serving freshly cooked food, amazing rock cakes, great coffee, wonderful filled rolls & snacks. Small but cute premises close to Blackfriars station, St Paul's Cathedral, Tate Modern, Mermaid theatre & some of London's oldest churches & graveyards. Lovely friendly staff. Can't speak highly enough of this independent cafe, which needs our support in these tough times.

I have used this place for a many years the food has always been good with the Blackfriars bridge close by very handy for people whom want to see the Thames this place is also frequented by Taxi drivers so it must be good

He usado este lugar durante muchos años y siempre es muy bueno para un pequeño café, el personal es muy amable y servicial, la comida es muy buena y sencilla para un café, este café está ubicado cerca del puente Blackfriars, es muy fácil para una parada a la hora del almuerzo.

This place seems to do everything well! Nipped in and had a bacon and egg sandwich with a mug of tea. While I was in there it was non stop orders for take away breakfast. It’s cooked as you order.

Piccolo Bar is tucked away in a tiny unit on Queen Victoria St, just past the Church of Scientology. Despite its minute size, its always busy with taxi drivers, tourists and city workers alike. You might have trouble squeezing in- only a few bar stools inside and little standing space, and a couple of tables outside. They have a massive selection of pasta, sandwiches, cakes plus breakfasts, curry and various other hot options. I've just had a meat pasta- the portion was massive, easily enough for two, served piping hot, with plenty of meat and well cooked pasta. The coffee is OK, not as good as the food but not bad either, and the prices are amazingly cheap for Central London! Friendly service too. I'll be back many times I'm sure, and definitely recommend Piccolo Bar.

It's never going to be trendy dining in here , it's an old school cafe that does classic food and cakes . Good for a full English breakfast to eat in or for a takeaway bacon or sausage sandwich . They also do home made lasagne etc . Everything is made fresh to order and prices are pretty good. It's very popular with London cab drivers , there's always a long line of them parked up outside in Queen Victoria Street which must prove something .

I am working along the road and found this place - I've had breakfast and lunch here both takeaway There is a great choice of hot home made chilli, curry, bolognese etc... There are great ciabatta sandwiches as well I had crusty bacon rolls with fried onions which were very nice indeed At Lunch we had chicken Caesar grilled ciabatta, Brie bacon tomato and fresh onion ciabatta and a chicken salad ciabatta which were all big and very very good and tasty Reasonable priced as well and you can sit outside or inside Nice guys who run it too

I get the best fresh made roll here for work, much better and fresher than all the other chain restaurants around. The staff are really friendly and honest. I gave a twenty pound note for a roll and rushed out without taking my change. When I went in there 2 days later I didn't think anyone would remember me or what money I had given them. The man who served me was smiling, and handed me a plastic bag with all my change I had left the other day! How honest is that!!

My husband always used the Piccolo Bar for lunch when working in the area 20 years ago. Whenever we are in that part of London we continue to revisit. It is good to still find a venue that has retained its own identity. The service is welcoming and efficient. Food is traditional and comforting. Very good value for London.

o piccolo é uma banca pequena que oferece muita comida a um preço barato. a pedida lá é o famoso café da manhã com o SWEET BEANS.

Great selection of roll fillings, loads of cakes, etc. and at sensible prices. The place is open from 6 am.

Been there few times on work dinner break to grab a quick sandwich. Food taste good and not pricey at all. Seems all the cabbies love this place!

Went here for a quick coffee this morning. The coffee was terrible, it tasted burnt and was served in a nasty polystyrene cup. Avoid.

If you’re walking down Queen Victoria Street to Blackfriar’s station around lunchtime, you won’t be able miss the queue of people standing outside this place. The reason? Well it’s good deli/café food at very very reasonable prices. And the portions are HUGE. I had seen...
