What a lovely visit to this establishment today. My pal and I, had a lovely breakfast with coffee. The place was packed at 8.30am on a Sunday, but we managed to get a table for 2. We are both from the manor, even though I moved down to Bournemouth 23 years ago, it still feels like home. We couldn’t eat all of the breakfast, as there was so much of it. Lovely service also, and Austin the owner is a diamond. We shall be back soon. Thank you

Just perfect. We were made very welcome by Fernando and Mickeila 🫶, the typical English dishes were delicious and plentiful. Superb experience in a very nice and well decorated place!! Ps: the toilets are super clean and smell super good (this is a pregnant woman who says this)

We queued for roughly 1h (its a small place and it was very busy) but let me tell you: it was worth it! Delicious food, a huge portion and tasteful coffee. We were served by Fernando who was such a delight! I will recommend this place to everyone - in my opinion is a must for anyone visiting London. For a tip: we had both “The works” - I’d recommend dropping the bubble & squeak for toast and getting a side of hash browns. It was delish!!

Visité este café basándome exclusivamente en lo que he visto de Austin en instagram y la comida que sirve. Este es un pequeño café encantador que a diferencia de la mayoría de los cafés, no se puede simplemente entrar y sentarse. Hay un sistema de colas para los momentos más ocupados, pero me llamaron antes de que pudiera completar la reserva. Estuve afuera no más de 10 minutos. La camarera me sentó frente a la tienda y tomó mi pedido de bebidas. Parecía un poco pez, pero no era un problema. No me hizo ningún daño. El lugar está lleno de recuerdos que personalmente, me encanta mirar. Solo tomé el desayuno sarnie y un café con leche, ambos de los cuales sabían muy bien y definitivamente se nota que los ingredientes son de alta calidad. No me quedé mucho tiempo, pero volveré ya que estamos comenzando un proyecto cerca y me gustaría probar otra comida en el menú.

I love this place - it is full of cockney charm. The food is superb and always tastes freshly prepared. Seating can be a bit tight but Terry and his team give you a warm welcome. Take the time to admire all the memorabilia inside the café, it really is a throwback to another era. Highly recommended place to visit

Piccolo locale di 20/30 coperti, pertanto consiglio di riservare prima di andarci. E' frequentato per lo piu da gente del posto. Offre principalmente il tipico english breakfast in molte varianti. Noi ci siamo andati per il brunch e devo dire che siamo rimasti pienamente soddisfatti. Piatti o sandwiches veramente abbondanti. Prezzi nella media di Londra.

Unfortunately I think this place has been spoiled by the hype. Probably not worth the long wait time when you can get food of a comparable quality at any other caf in the area. The best thing about it is the decor, but that's only if you're sat in the main cafe. Sadly on a Saturday the staff are overwhelmed and the service is bad. We were sat in the adjacent bar room at a dirty window counter with crumbs and streaks of presumably jam left behind, our two normal breakfasts took over 20 minutes to arrive, we asked for water and it never came, we asked for salt and pepper and it never came, we had to go up to the counter to get the attention of the wait staff to pay. A fine place for a one off visit but won't be returning.

Cannot express enough how delicious this meal was! Arrived around 9:30am and were seated right away. It did get busier as time went on so ai would suggest arriving before 10 to get a seat immediately if possible! I ordered the savory pancakes, and they were mouth watering.

What a find, an absolute amazing place from start to finish, Whilst we were waiting in the queue the owner approached us to ask if was ok and if we wanted anything so I had had a beer and it was a lovely pint. I had the ham and egg chips (which wasn’t on todays menu but the owner was still happy to do) also added beans and was by far the best ham egg and chips I’ve had in years and definitely the best in London and Essex. my partner had a breakfast and the quality of the sausage and bacon was unreal. This place is a must. The staff and owner added to my amazing experience today. Thank you.

For us as German tourists, breakfast in Terry's Cafe London was by far the highlight of our first vacation in London. The ambience, the toilet with the hanging flush (!), the many photos of celebrities on the walls and the quality of the food were really great! Next time I'm in London I'll have breakfast there again. PS: when catering establishments have existed for so many years, there is always a good reason for it and this one was founded in 1982. See for yourself, you won't regret it

Came early Saturday morning, great friendly staff. Good coffee, quality ingredients on the breakfasts with the homely charm of a classic caf. We came for the Billingsgate breakfast (only served on a weekends) apparently I was the first person to have it since it was added as a regular dish and it was great. I was expecting 4 scallops as that is what I saw on instagram but I wont complain with the good experience we had 😉

This is British traditional food like I would imagine a grandma would eat. The sausage and the black pudding are simply incredibly delicious (and as a German I come from the land of sausages and think the sausage at breakfast is tastier than any here in Germany) plus the bubble and squeak and a few mushrooms are just perfect :)

I have been a customer of Terrys for the past 3 years and the quality at Terrys has dropped drastically over the past year. Two of the three Hash-browns were not cooked throughout or crispy. Terrys used to serve Heinz condiments, but now you get a tub of vinegary cheap ketchup. I ordered a Sausage and Onion Sarnie and the Onions were missing. The decor is traditional and unique to other cafes, however the whole place looks very tired. The plates, tables and cutlery are no different to an Ikea cafe. If you are visiting Terrys for its 1900s vibes this is the place, but if you are after good grub then there are better options in the area.

My local cafe - has really gone down hill since covid. The decor is outdated, flooring was coming up, table laminate was ripped and sticky, the queue is abysmal now - expecting customers to share tables after waiting 40 minutes! The food quality has really gone down hill too and expensive for what you get. Ordered a sandwich with two ingredients - one was missing. Also hash brown was thrown in fryer stuck together and then separated when plating which was visibly obvious. The bread kept ripping apart and toppings falling when trying to eat the sandwich. Just cheap quality to be honest. Across the road is another cafe - no queue same food available. Terry’s please pull your socks up - you used to be good but last few times you were bad!

Nice place, clean, tidy, nice staff. Food tasty, sausages and bacon good quality. Only criticism is the upselling of additional items...toast, hash browns, etc. Would have been nice to have been advised that what we had ordered was sufficient and unless we were massively hungry the additional items would not be needed. The staff laughed that we didn't finish it all :/

This is the kind of cafe (pronounced ‘kaff’) that every working class Londoner should feel entitled to - but a quality full English in a homely setting is sadly the exclusive remit of Terry’s and you will find yourself trekking 50 minutes across town on two tubes and a bus to enjoy this long-lost human right. Charming service, mountainous portions of food and specialty coffee. Even the old-school time portal of a loo is an experience. Registering on the electronic queue can be a bit of a buzz kill, but if it’s less than 45 minutes just cop it and ignore the calling of that Jezabel temptress of a cafe across the road. If you wait longer, you might find yourself asking the brain-melting existential question of why you waited more than an hour for eggs on toast. But this is arguably the best full English in London, and I should know - I’m an Aussie

The breakfast spot came highly recommended, but unfortunately, they didn’t have any non-pork options, so I opted for a veggie breakfast. The beans and eggs were tasty, and the scrambled eggs and hash browns on the side were quite good. Overall, it was a decent experience, though I wish they had more inclusive options.

The food was absolutely amazing, We had the vegan breakfast and the traditional British breakfast. Some of the food did arrive cold however. We paid extra for more baked beans and they arrived cold and late. I also had the English tea and asked for milk and I was told it was on the way, and we also ordered scrambled eggs. The lady taking our order did not write any of our order down and we then received a sunny side egg, we told the lady we still didn't have cutlery, our milk had not arrived and our order if the traditional breakfast was wrong and had to wait for it to come. We also didn't receive the extra baked beans until we asked for it again and then they had the audacity to slap a 10% service charge on. The staff didn't seem like they wanted to be there.

This was one of the highlights of my recent London trip -- a proper Full English fry up. The wait wasn't bad (shorter if you're willing to sit outside during the Autumn season) but even if it was longer I'd say it would be worth it. The food was great -- portions were good, everything was tasty, and I learned that a Full English breakfast is a proper hangover cure. Would definitely come back next time I have the pleasure of visiting London again.

Great food and great service. Can’t ask for much else. Came first thing on a Monday morning at 8am and was seated right away. They were only accepting cash that day so we had to use the ATM nearby which cost us 5 pounds even though the screen in the beginning says 2 pounds to withdraw. Prepare to bring cash just in case. We just dealt with it because eating a fry up here was one of my priorities while visiting London. I ordered “the works” and it was delicious. Portion was generous and I’m a big eater. 16.50 pounds for the plate seemed reasonable to me in a big city like London. The Cumberland sausage, bacon, and bubble and squeak were the highlights. I never thought I’d like canned beans that much but it really works in this dish. Egg was perfectly cooked as well. I was an idiot and didn’t realize English breakfast tea meant it had milk and sugar in it. I thought it was just a type of tea and I’m allergic to milk. Our waitress didn’t make me feel bad about it at all and brought out a plain black tea with no hesitation. She also showed us HP sauce and how and when to use it. It reminded me a bit of a vinegar heavy American barbecue sauce. I enjoyed it with the chips. Food and service go hand in hand and this cafe has both in spades. Everything you want from a local breakfast spot.

Visité este café tradicional con mi hija para un buen desayuno británico y no me decepcionó. El ambiente es muy bueno, con un montón de recuerdos de época por todo el lugar. El desayuno era genial. El único problema era el servicio. El señor que tomó la orden no anotó nada y finalmente no entregó lo que ordené. Necesitaba pedir otro café 3 veces antes de que llegara. Qué vergüenza sobre esto como si el servicio hubiera sido mejor sin duda sería de 5 estrellas.

No tengo ni idea de por qué este lugar está tan bien valorado - aparte de la gloria pasada tal vez. La comida en sí está bien, pero nada especial. Los huevos revueltos eran buenos, pero mis soleados huevos fritos tenían una clara manchada sustancial. La carne de tocino estaba seca, lo que no me importaría si fuera remotamente crujiente, pero la grasa estaba completamente flácida y ni siquiera ligeramente dorada. Podría continuar, pero aparte del hecho de que era un desayuno grande, el contenido carecía de sabor - incluso la salsa marrón no tenía patadas. Dicho esto, ni siquiera habría hecho esta crítica, si no fuera por el horrible servicio. Aparecimos y las mesas de afuera estaban todas libres y había un par de mesas libres dentro... y nadie haciendo cola. Así que después de unos instantes, abrí la puerta con cautela y le pregunté si había mesas, pero me dieron un pequeño salto y me dijeron que esperara afuera. Unos minutos después nos dijeron que tendríamos que esperar diez minutos a menos que quisiéramos sentarnos afuera, así que lo hicimos. El personal parecía pasar la mayor parte de los siguientes 15 minutos haciendo cosas que no fueran servir mesas, a veces simplemente charlando. 20 minutos después de habernos sentado, logramos llamar la atención de alguien y le preguntamos si podíamos ordenar - se disculpó y afirmó que no sabían que estábamos allí. En ese momento se había desarrollado una cola afuera y todavía se pasaba el tiempo sentando a la gente antes de que nos atendieran. Las personas que llegaron años después que nosotros estaban ahora sentados dentro y ordenado antes que nosotros. Finalmente pedimos un té y un café y dos desayunos. Mi té llegó en un par de minutos. Los desayunos llegaron diez minutos después, pero todavía no hay café. Pregunté cautelosamente por el café y me dijeron que venía, pero de una manera rápida me dijeron que no debería haber preguntado. Observar lo que estaba pasando con el 'sistema de colas' para las mesas contaba una historia de completo caos. Algunas personas no se dieron cuenta de que hay que unirse a la 'cola virtual' o perderse. Otros se habían sumado a la 'cola virtual' bastante evidentemente antes incluso de llegar, presumiblemente al tener ya una foto del código QR. Otros se habían unido a la 'cola virtual' y fueron llamados verbalmente, pero ni siquiera habían llegado todavía. Una mesa, que estaba libre en el interior cuando llegamos, pero no se nos ofreció, permaneció libre hasta que un grupo de 5 llegaron 25 minutos después de que nosotros hemos - y se les asignó inmediatamente, a su llegada - a pesar de que otros han estado allí más tiempo. Esto va totalmente en contra de la base de "operamos por orden de llegada" como se anuncia en el sitio web. No solo eso, es bastante obvio, por lo que el personal le decía a la gente, que debes unirte a la "cola virtual" de lo contrario no obtendrás una mesa... eso estaba claro en la realidad, pero el letrero no te lo dice y tampoco la página web. Empeora... la pareja francesa que se sentó a nuestro lado claramente ordenó sus desayunos con burbujas no patatas fritas, revueltos no fritos y uno con tomate. Eran las opciones y se hicieron muy claramente. Sus desayunos aparecieron y estaban completamente equivocados. Ambos tenían patatas fritas, huevos fritos y frijoles. Nos insinuaron que no se sentían inclinados a quejarse debido al caos y estaban tan decepcionados con lo que esperaban que fuera una gran experiencia de desayuno. Estaba avergonzado por el lugar. Lo siento, pero al observar lo que estaba pasando, ciertamente no es el caso que simplemente tuvimos mala suerte. Hay un desprecio básico por los clientes. La información en el sitio web no se alinea con el proceso en la práctica, que es caótico y definitivamente no 'primero en llegar', y la calidad del contenido del desayuno no justifica el precio. El cargo por servicio tampoco está justificado. Este lugar necesita mirarse bien a sí mismo, reajustar el enfoque, publicar un proceso de colas que sea justo y funcione, tratar a los clientes como si todos fueran igualmente especiales y reevaluar la calidad de lo que se sirve frente al precio. En mi caso no volverá a serlo. Una experiencia lamentable. He dado dos estrellas en lugar de una - simplemente porque era una gran porción, pero no puedo decir que disfruté de ningún aspecto de ella.

English Breakfast, which you may have heard of at least once when you think of British food, along with fish and chips, is literally a British breakfast. This is a cafe I visited to eat English breakfast. ​ According to what I found, it is a family-run cafe that has been open for nearly 40 years. The natural, vintage interior is like a scene from an English-speaking movie from the 80s and 90s. I ordered the all-day breakfast menu called the works and a cup of cappuccino, and the price came to around 30,000 won. First of all, the portion was so generous that it was a bit too much for breakfast. Looking at the composition, it includes sausage, fried eggs, bacon, black pudding, baked beans, bubble and squeak (potato dish), roasted tomatoes and mushrooms. Bread must be added separately. I didn't know there was so much to eat so I added bread, but there were only 2 pieces per person and I couldn't eat them all. This is because Bubble and Squeak, which is a chunk of potato, has more than enough carbohydrates. The sausage was a Cumberland sausage used in a British dish called bangers and mash, and when I cut it with a knife, the meat oozed juice and had a greasy taste. It was a bit burdensome in the morning, but it was most impressive. ​ For a light breakfast, a Parisian-style croissant and a cup of coffee seems perfect, and I recommend enjoying English breakfast for brunch. Please note that in the UK they only eat this for breakfast on weekends.

I got the traditional breakfast. As a Brazilian, it seemed very strange to me to eat these things mixed together, but I really liked it! It's worth knowing. Tips: The bread is paid separately, the service fee is already included in the final price, so you fill in the amount already on the machine only if you want to give an extra box to whoever served you. The scrambled egg is huge, easily enough for two people. I went on an early weekday, didn't wait in line.

Mixed review! The ingredients were excellent and well cooked, and the service good too. However the prices are extortionate based on reputation when there are literally hundreds of cafes in London that offer food and service which is genuinely just as good. The reason I would never return is the lack of flexibility which I can only view as owner greed. As with most cafes, set breakfasts are offered which is I guess a good option for such busy places. However no set breakfast is perfect for every customer - we all dislike something or want something instead. Terrys allow you to drop any item but it can only be replaced by a slice of toast ! So I dropped black pudding and got toast not hashbrowns. If I’d wanted hashbrowns they were an extra £4. Please don’t tell me black pudding costs the same as a bit of toast or indeed hashbrowns! The breakfast didn’t come with tea/coffee or toast as standard as with most set breakfasts eg The Regency (go there btw lol). My breakfast plus hashbrowns plus tea was over £25. I got the same quality in a nearby cafe with my exact ingredients plus tea and toast for £12.

Food is nice but not as good as some in London. Service was on the slow side. The cafe is full of nostalgia

I have been to many cafés; too many I suspect, and this is one of the best...if not the best. Great food, great service, and a lovely atmosphere.

Unfortunately as a cafe style breakfast this disappointed. Overly greasy and undercooked mushrooms and bacon. Cold beans and fried egg. Sausage was tough. They had ran out of bubble & squeak. But worst of all was batting away the bar flies. Nice staff, cute dining room. There are much better greasy spoon cafes out there.

Great little place (emphasis on little) with great food. Seating is not the most comfortable but the staff are friendly. Food is good but I'd say not "exceptional. The place has character and charm.

Absolutely outstanding breakfast. The quality of ingredients were second to none. Excellent bacon, sausages,eggs & black pudding. Lovely sourdough toast too. None of that cheap nonsense. You can really taste the quality. It'll be my go-to for food from now on when I visit London. Please Don't change. Would highly recommend a visit. Well done to the team @ Terrys cafe👏

Every nation has its culinary signature dishes, and you could argue that English breakfast is England's contribution to culinary globalisation. You can find it all over the world a hearty combination of ingredients simply put together to give you a good start to your day. You can find it on every high street cafe in Great Britain. So why go to Terry's Cafe? The breakfast here is the best I have ever had , top quality ingredients, cooked perfectly. You must have the bubble and squeak it's a homemade masterpiece. So what's the big deal it's just a good breakfast I hear you say. Well, it's Terry's Cafe. Entering here is like stepping back in time to a bygone age. It is a quintessential classical English cafe. An English breakfast oasis off the tourist trail but well worth the diversion.

Enjoying an ever increasing surge in popularity like Pelliccis thanks to social media influencers, but the food is as good as anywhere quality wise for a cafe, meat etc all good quality and well cooked. Great staff too. Wanna miss the queues weekdays are busy but usually wait times are a bit more bearable

Comí comida para llevar aquí unos días mientras visitaba la zona por trabajo y la comida era increíble. Fresco y lleno de sabor no podría recomendar lo suficiente. Las bebidas son refrescantes. El personal es amable y servicial. En general, es un gran lugar para comer y beber cuando visite la zona.

I eat here at least 3 times a week for lunch an the food is always top quality along with the craić with the staff. Omar is a very friendly and welcoming proprietor and is always on hand to chat or suggest whet to have. Amazing atmosphere and hopefully the new style currently being done will only enhance the already amazing place....
