Poilane in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

In France this company makes great sourdough bread and have done so for a long time. But I’m not sure the brown sourdough taste as well as that in Paris. It was also a little to dense for me. I also brought the ginger cake which is highly recommended by others but I didn’t like it. Half of the gingerbread liaf remained in the bag for weeks as my family weren’t keen on it. The croissants however are very good. I’ve not tried the butter often other groceries. There is no seating to eat in.

Stopped in for pastries and coffee on a morning walk. I had an apple pastry that was amongst the nicest that I have ever tasted.

The sourdough is amazing and tastes exactly the same as it does back in their outlets in Paris. The croissants are terrific. The quality is definitely worth the price!

These guys have the best pies and I couldn't rate them enough. I am always grabbing my lunch from here :)

I have been a regular at Poilane for a long time; NOT ANYMORE ALAS! What has happened? The staff are surly and frankly the waitress when I was there on Sunday March the 1st was downright rude! It took forever and a day to take my order, which somehow got lost in the system, so what should have been a lovely Sunday morning was ruined by her vile attitude. I could not help but notice furthermore that the bathroom was grubby as was the kitchen! What has happened? Who is the manager? Does anyone care? Apparently not! They are making money apparently and the customer counts for nothing! I rather think the late Mr Poilane would be extremely disappointed!
