Speedy's Sandwich Bar & Cafe in Camden

My favourite cafe ever. The people who work here are so nice & welcoming, and the food is great. Lovely place!

The English men who eat Full English Breakfast are really cute.

The best cafe I've ever been to.♥️

This place is an absolute gem! Lovely small business with some history as well :) Prices are great and portions are a great size and the food is always tasty I swing by at least once a week for some breakfast. Staff are very friendly and will happily make you a custom dish. Highly recommend this place!

I visited because I am a Sherlock fan, and the portions were large and the food tasted better than I expected. I had a mushroom omelet for breakfast for the full month. It was hearty, warm, and the mushroom omelet was especially delicious. It was my first meal since arriving in London, and I was a little nervous because it was my first time speaking English, but the hostess welcomed me warmly and made me feel comfortable. Anyway, it's a casual restaurant, so the atmosphere was relaxed, and the review said it was a mocha restaurant, so I ordered it and it was really delicious. Be sure to try the mocha. Rather than a mocha with coffee, it was a mocha that went well with milk and chocolate. I visited once more on the last day of my trip to London to drink mocha, and on my second visit, I had Sherlock Lab and Watson Lab, and they were really delicious;;;; I'm really happy that it tastes like this at an affordable price... Cheese and cooked vegetables go well together in the Watson Wrap, and chicken, bacon, and raw vegetables go well together in the Sherlock Wrap. Of all the restaurants I visited in London, Speedy was the most delicious. Highly recommended. And the second time I visited, it was fun because the Sherlock picture frames were changed!

This is the iconic place where Sherlock Holmes lived in the famous BBC series. On the right side you will notice the famous Speedy's Cafe banner and there the sandwiches of the characters from the iconic Sherlock Holmes series are set on the menu

Best breakfast i have had in London. Great service and a reasonably priced too

Just a 5 min walk from Euston St, turn right then your first right. Great Little cafe, to start your day.. Breakfast was superb.. Wide variety of food and cakes.. Lovely staff. Genuine freindly place.

You know your 5 stars excellent quality breaking fish b chips salads great cafe like the 80s plays the 80s music love it.your the best the lady is so caring.

Came mostly because Sherlock. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. I loved the atmosphere and the food. I can only recommend this amazing place and I will be back as soon as possible.

It’s great value for money.. Sherlock Wrap is really delicious.

We have been going this place for almost 10 years now, and never disappoints! Great food, great staff and great photos on the wall.

The filming location of BBC Sherlock, 221b Baker Street. Food is very good! We actually went 2 times in our short stay in London as we found it good priced and very tasteful!

Came here because of Sherlock. We had a change of plan thus ended up only in the afternoon to have a quick meal. We ordered a Sherlock breakfast. It’s fresh and nice. The place is cozy and lovely. Would be back again for breakfast when there is opportunity.

I came for Sherlock, had lunch because of the reviews, stayed for the lovely ambience and returned for another delightful brunch. Speedy’s became my favourite spot in London during my short stay in the city. I dare saying the Sherlock Show had been filmed here so the staff could eat their dishes during the production. While I struggled to choose from the options, I was quickly served with a cup of tea. Under the staff’s recommendation, I chose the “Sherlock Breakfast” — with a well served portion of smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, fresh tomato slices, avocado and mushrooms. Before leaving, I also had a slice of lemon cake, perfectly fluffy and tasty with my cup of tea. I returned a second time before leaving London and I was received just as warmly as before. This once, I tried a Smoked Salmon sandwich menu, which was an amazing deal not only for the price, but by the quality delivered. For the fans of Sherlock, I believe this is a must stop during your time in London. The pictures on the walls give a glimpse of the memories from the production days, and to eat where the characters did certainly is an experience to remember. The music and the mint panelling are also such charming details! In the rare occasion the restaurant finds itself slightly more empty, I would also recommend having a chat with the staff. Speedy’s has been around for over 40 years, and their passion for this house is what truly makes it into what it is now. It does get quite crowded during the lunch times since it’s well located next to the Euston Square Station and the university hospital, but if you are willing to share the table during the peak hours, you might be able to stay for a while longer with your cup of tea and dessert. I hope to come back soon to London, and I will make sure to return to Speedy’s <3

Importantly the food was fresh, well done and pleasant... In fact it took so long to come I think they did their own butchering too. Excellent hash browns! A typical back street London caf feel and appears used by local workers as well as the tourist. Handsome guy behind sandwich bar with cheeky smile is welcoming and efficient . Sadly, his older lady assistant has poor English and so presents brusk and unfriendly . A larger group came in and I was made (rather than asked ) to move table mid meal which I didn't like . This happened again and two woman on adjacent table were moved to accommodate a larger group in the middle of their meal . The serving lady would benefit from attending an updated catering hygiene procedures course too to help her practice. She actioned everything with the same gloves on from handling food to dealing with money to hugging her friends. Further, her cloth was cross contaminating around the cafe, table to sandwich bar and not a hint of antibacterial cleaner. However, this wasn't a negative experience and did the breakfast job . It's important to support small businesses . With some attention to standard catering cleanliness and customer focused service, this place could excel.

A must-see for fans of BBC’s Sherlock. Would I have eaten there if it didn’t feature in Sherlock? Probably not, but I’m glad I did, and the great food made it more than just a tourist attraction. (It also features some cool behind the scenes photos on the wall)

Typical English sandwich shop with sherlock homes. Pretty cheap menus for the location. Food is alright. If I remember correctly, takeaway is a bit cheaper.

Amazing breakfast spot!! I got the full English breakfast and it came out quick and delicious

Not far from London Euston. Great food Great service Amazing fresh orange juice. Great prices. Very efficient Great menus choice.

Bang on for lunch, fairly priced with great service.

Pilgrimage to the café downstairs at Holmes’ house!

Excellent chicken and bacon wrap with hot sauce salad and crisps on the side will visit again soon friendly staff and good choice on the menu 👍🏻

Super nice little restaurant where we were very well received, with a few words in French :) we had a Full English Breakfast, it was very very good for a very reasonable price. The little extra of the restaurant is the building where the Sherlock series was filmed! It is agreed that each of our visits to London, we will return there for breakfast!

Great cooked breakfasts. Still very popular. Still great value and quality. Tourist friendly. Good pastas too. Lots of regulars from local workplaces.

Well worth the short trip from Euston station to get a proper coffee for only £2.60. With the added advantage of a little Sherlock thrill for the location.

Full English breakfast was hot and plentiful. The pricing was surprisingly good for London.

I visited for breakfast since my hotel was nearby. The English breakfast was delicious and tasted like something my host family would have cooked for me when I was studying abroad in England a long time ago.

There are no restrooms, so please be careful.

It’s I bet one of the best places to get a breakfast and coffee around. The staff is really friendly and nice. The food is great. Recommended!

Very good and tasty food and also good Kaffee. We ate there 3 times breakfast and have a good time. I would love to go there again. Guten Morgen aus Hamburg

Just what I needed! A delicious full English breakfast with toast, served by lovely, friendly people. All of the food was prepared using quality ingredients and served with a smile. Perfect cappuccino too.

I found out that this shop, which is familiar from the drama, actually exists, so I went there to check it out! The appearance is just like the drama. I'm excited. It was empty since it had just opened. It's been a while since I had a full breakfast. The beans were especially delicious, and I put a lot of them on my toast. Plenty of volume! The unpretentious tea was very nostalgic and delicious. My heart, stomach, and body were all warm and satisfied♪

Excellent customizable sandwiches, exceptional traditional breakfasts But the difference and added value are the entire staff, wonderful people

Very warm welcome, and English breakfast lived up to our expectations. The owner even spoke to us a little in French

This happened to be open and near to where we were staying so we popped in for breakfast. Had no clue about the TV show connection but explains the tourists taking photos. Nice to find an old school greasy spoon Cafe that hasn’t been messed about with. Very friendly service, reasonably priced and a proper cooked breakfast, will definitely go back next time we’re in the area

Had a great and cheap meal here! Came here because of the Sherlock series. They have some nice pictures from the set on the walls.

Full English between train connections...spot on.

Really enjoyed an omelette and chips here

Popped into Speedys the other morning as I had to work near Euston sq, staff were so nice & friendly early in the morning, great coffee, a great spot!

Loved this place. Definitely a great find. Great menu, great prices, great food

Sherlock fans are in for a treat! When we visited, it seemed like there were a lot of local customers, both eat-in and take-out customers. The food was also delicious. I enjoyed that it was named after Sherlock.

Good breakfast and good coffee, fast and friendly service and very good prices especially considering the location..£10 for a full English with a coffee is great value.

We stopped here after an overnight train wanting some breakfast. Ordered cappuccino and croissants. The servers were friendly but what we received was only adequate. The croissants seemed exactly like the ones in Gregg's in terms of both taste and assistance, but the price was much higher. The coffee was overheated so the flavor was lost. Disappointing start to the day.

I think as an BBC Sherlock fan is this a must. The workers were really friendly and it was even possibly to get a vegan breakfast. Really enjoyed it.

To be honest, it's not that delicious, but I think Sherlock fans will be satisfied just by going, just entering, and just eating. It was reasonably priced for London (quite expensive compared to eating out in Japan), and the madam was efficient. I visited for breakfast, and it was easy for even one person to come in. The way the tables were arranged was different from the drama.

Good place for a quick bite or coffee ☕

Great place for breakfast and lunch

Was so grateful to find decent food on my trip to London and Scotland. AND Greek owners. Delicious! Highly recommend. The spaghetti Carbonara was heavenly.

Came for the "Baker Street," stayed for the sandwiches. Of course I popped by Speedy's because of Sherlock, but it wouldn't make sense to not actually go in and sit down for a bite. Had a vegetarian sandwich which was quite tasty. Staff were also super friendly. It took a bit longer than expected for the sandwich, but I chalk that up to the time of day I showed up.

The food was delicious! We had a “Full English breakfast” and “Sherlock breakfast”.

The most vile full English I've ever had in my life. I have absolutely no idea where these positive ratings come from, they just have to be fake. I'm counting down the minutes and praying I don't get food poisoning. The bacon had zero taste which I didn't know was possible, felt like eating leather. Everything else came straight out of a can..The head waitress was just downright rude from the start when I asked if they had a toilet she just said: "no, no toilet for customers" and walked straight off. We were polite from the start and I never complained because I didn't see the point. As far as I can tell this isn't the original speedy's because they had to sell ita little while ago.Seems like it's just a tourist scam now although we didn't know about the Sherlock holmes connection before we went here

Really great atmosphere and very nice (and also cheap) food. We were very impressed, also by the very rustic service. Really “cool”. If we came to London again we would definitely go here again!!

Me and my gf came for quick lunch as we had to catch a train in 45 mins. We received our drinks and food in 10 mins roughly. The shop was fairly busy too. Coffee was very good price! Would recommend a quick breakfast/ lunch if you're short on time

Great food, great breakfast sets and sandwiches. The service was brilliant. The prices are also great considering the location and quality of the food.

Great vegetarian breakfast! Best hashbrowns had in a long time!

Authentic British cuisine. The warmful atmosphere and service lady was very pleasant.

The place is legendary because of the series... but the service is a little austere and the hygiene of the place is questionable... it seems more like a place for sandwiches... We ate regular… But we still messed up the order, because for sandwiches there was an eternal queue….

On a day trip to London to take in a west end show, we decided to visit Speedy’s as we are avid fans of Sherlock the tv series. We had lovely breakfasts and the staff were very friendly and helpful. My only concern is that there isn’t a customer’s toilet and we had to visit a nearby hotel to ask permission to use their facilities.

Found Speedys in a convenient spot. Quick service. Tandy Speedy Breakfast with friendly people looking after everything. Thank you.

Recently went to London for the first time, and having been a BBC Sherlock fan back in the day, I had to try out Speedy’s, and I’m glad I did. I got their mexican tuna melt on whole grain, and it was a very comforting meal. Overall I thought the place had a pleasantly relaxed atmosphere, and if I ever find myself in London again, I’m sure I’ll go back

The food is very good and the Sherlock references are fun.

We came because we are Sherlock fans and we were delighted. Great food, great atmosphere and great service! Thank you

As Sherlock-Fan, I just couldn't resist... and the beakfast there was so good!

As a Sherlock fan, coming here was a dream come true! Wonderful friendly staff with wonderful anecdotes. Delicious food and great pastries!

Ended up here as other venue was closed.. Glad it was! Service at speedys was better and quicker than other places the food was served very quickly. The attitude of the lady (my apologies can't remember her name) was superb. The next time I go to the Magic Circle. I will come here first.

Great service very helpful and polite, good price and brilliant food highy recommended especially sherlock fans !!

This is a great independent cafe, so few of which survive in today’s London but in my London of 20 years ago were so plentiful it seemed. I popped in for scrambled egg on toast and a big cup of tea. Great breakfast menu. Lovely staff. Bang on breakfast. So much better than a trip to a soulless coffee chain at nearby Euston. Open at the unholy hour I arrived in London just off the sleeper train. The Sherlock thing is a lark, I hope it gives them lots of visitors keen to sample honest British cafe food. God bless Speedy’s and long may they continue in business.

가성비 좋은 식사를 할 수 있는 분위기 좋은 카페입니다! 주문할 때는 식사를 먼저 말하고 음료를 말하면 됩니다. 직원분이 친절하고 오믈렛이 맛있으니 가서 드셔보시기를 추천합니다!

Well priced for location. Quality of food is excellent and the service is both very friendly and professional.

Call in here whenever we pop down to London & it’s a pleasure each time, decent breakfast 🍳 for a really good price

Unpretentious diner, great for breakfast, hot drinks, and sandwiches. As a BBC Sherlock fan, I had to come here once during my trip to London as they filmed there. It was super busy, but the waitstaff made sure I got a table. Orders came out quick despite it being so busy. The food was a nice homecooked meal vibe. Met the owner/manager(?) when I asked if they still sold Speedy's merch since that was a big thing for BBC Sherlock fans, and though they sold out, he sold me a menu which I thought was sweet and hilarious. A great stop if you're in the area and hungry or a film buff.

During our London trip, we checked out many restaurants and breakfast places with good reviews, but we often left disappointed. Speedy was honestly one of the few that stayed true to its ratings. We went there every day during our stay. Even though the exterior could use some upgrades, you quickly forget about this once you enter the place. We tried the regular and chocolate croissants, as well as various sandwiches. They were all fresh and really delicious. Their cappuccino is also one of the best I've tried in the city. Not to mention the reasonable prices & the awesome, friendly service! An absolute must-try! 😊

Great caff, used it for years, honest prices good grub

A really lovely cafe ran by lovely people. Also a must for a Sherlock fans!

Great Service friendly Atmosphere and delicious food thanks guys.

We've been going to this place for the last eight years. It all started as a part of Sherlock BBC fan tour but later we grew to appreciate the quality of the food and the level of service. We ordered our first Sherlock breakfast in 2015 and the last (so far) - just 2 days ago. We are amazed at how anyone can provide such impeccable quality for such a long period of time. The world could be in chaos but there's a stable thing left: a delicious dish from Speedy's! Thank you, Chris! Take care! Love from Lana and Nadia. PS: The pastries were amazing ❤️

Very good place to eat! It is seen in Sherlock so the cast has visited and it was nice being there also. The service was good, food was good, and atmosphere is nice. They ran out of the bread we wanted and substituted without asking so that is something to expect. Great place to visit and enjoy! Thanks you, Speedys!

Nous sommes allés 2 fois , la première top découverte, service et échange bon en espagnol. Deuxième fois, service nul et se trompe dans les commandes.

Great service, great price and great food. Well recommended

Reasonable prices, great English breakfast and a super friendly owner! Oat milk available, card payment possible

Great cup of tea and moist cake to go with it.

Very lovely place, nice people and great sandwich

Natürlich muss man als Sherlock Fan hier gewesen sein! Was neben der Location noch dazu kommt ist der nette Service und das wirklich gute Essen. Preis Leistung ist top! Beim nächsten London Besuch kommen wir wieder.

Very tiny, but really 👍🏻 ce little place. Had the Sherlock breakfast - scrambled, smoked salmon, mushrooms, avocado. Really tasty and not overly expensive. And of course various Sherlock pix on the walls. Would definitely return.

Baker Street in Alibi. Unscheinbar und nett.

Perfect. Very old very italian.

Sniadaniownia głównie dania typowe dla angielskich barów czy fasolka, jajko, kiełbaska, awokado, łosoś, kawa I herbata. Herbata podawana z dodanym mlekiem. Obok kręcono serial Sherlock i w lokalu wiszą zdjęcia z tego wydarzenia. Stoliki w środku i na zewnątrz. Sprawna obsługa. Jedzenie bez szału.

If you wanna have good and easy breakfast, I recommend the sandwiches and especially the crossaints at Speedy‘s. Good flat white coffee and a fair pricing. The staff is super friendly. And they have even some tables outside. Hint: If you like Sherlock Holmes… you eat next to his door. Cause the BBC Series has been recorded here.

シャーロック・ホームズ好きにおすすめのカフェです。 ベネディクト・カンバーバッチとマーティン・フリーマンの写真が飾ってありました。

If you are a Sherlock Holmes fan you can eat here at reasonable prices and recognize some of the filmset. Interior decorated loosely with photos, and the juice is from Lidl.

Friendly stuff and good customer service.

Popped in for breakfast after dropping some things off in London. Incredibly friendly staff, speedy service and delicious food. Reasonably priced too. Will certainly come back if passing.

A really nice little Café! Typical English breakfast and really tasty. They also have burgers, which looked really good. And for under £10 I can only recommended Also when you are a Sherlock fan, Speedy‘s place you need to visit!

It was not a bad place, and I had a bacon sandwich, which was quite greasy but pleasant enough. Staff sitting us moved this poor lady's table without asking her, whilst she was innocently eating her breakfast, just for us to be seated 😕 would have happily waited, lacking on the accommodation side.

Watch out Asian pals! There is a french(?) lady might tease you to speak “full english”(i think my english is quite alright) and almost throw forks and knifes in front you in a very humble way. Other than that, the food and the chef was nice.

We stumbled upon this Cafe while looking for a place to sit down and catch up while having food. Imagine our surprise when we found out it was actually the Sherlock cafeteria! Since it was peak hours we had to wait a bit but I would say it was worth the wait. We had Tricolori Focaccia and Chicken and Bacon Wrap which were very tasty. The Focaccia was soft and flavourful. The service we received was good and the staff was approachable and polite. Due to time crunch that's all we could try but I'm inclined to try out other dishes from here as well the next time I visit.

Petit restaurant café mignon mais je ne sais pas si on a pas eu de chance ou quoi, mais notre serveuse ce jour là n’était pas très agréable et nous a mis assez mal à l’aise. De plus, il n y’a pas de toilette. Lors de notre prise de commande, nous avons demandé de l’eau mais nous n’avons pas été servi. Heureusement que nous avions une bouteille d’eau avec nous.

Kann jedem Sherlock Fan ans Herz legen den Ort zu besuchen. Sehr faire Preise für Londoner Verhältnisse.
