The restaurant is ideally placed for Covent Garden and has outside seating which was lovely on a warmish day. The food was delicious and the drinks well served. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Chic little cafe with heavy wooden design & use of black. Latte I had was good. The toast was tasty and healthy with ingredients like sun dried tomato, halloumi cheese, spinach & mushroom. The little flaw I’d say was the egg was a bit overcooked to me. It gets quite busy during the lunch hours.

Lovely old building with loads of quirks, fantastic breakfast/brunch I personally had the crispy duck hash which was so so good Each and everyone of the 5 of us enjoyed every mouthful of what we had, would have returned another day if we hadn’t have gone here on the last day

Pretty good place for a brunch, not much variety, but Ozdenir Pasha eggs and The Hunter eggs, bacon, sausage and beans were taste were exactly what we need after a long walk in the area. Nice, small, cosy place with good vibes, proper service and prices.

We went in as a family of 6 and the staff were un polite and offered us a table for 4 and it was busy and was very narrow and the was another table for 2 next to us and put 2 of our kids and the staff came to us and told that we can’t use that one as it’s separated from our table which made no sense as we barely fit in the thanks they offered us so we left

A very busy place but worth the wait. The coffee is really good and the range of breakfast choices excellent. After a night of too much partying, I needed a good old fashioned fry up but this is far classier than that. Their take on baked beans is also a winner. Loved it!!!

Great to find a place doing brunch dishes all day! Delicious dishes and great coffee in a quiet street in Covent Garden. The dishes have their own unique twist as well as Bro g able to add extras to a basic dish. We sat outside as sunny but loved the look of the inside too!

I don’t know where to start. When we came in we were seated and told we would get table service. We waited so long to get any waiter to come to us that by the time they did we had run out of time because we were on our way to the theatre. When I did try go up to the counter all the waiters were literally throwing things over me and completely failing to acknowledge I was waiting to order or talk to someone. The service here is terrible and I’m glad we didn’t stick around because the first impression was very bad.

Went here for breakfast when visiting London and man it did NOT disappoint. The breakfast bun was simply delicious and I didn’t even need to get lunch, I got through the day till diner time. The service was perfectly friendly and the back where we were seated was super cosy library-like. 10/10 would recommend to get your breakfast here when visiting London!

My Mom and I dined where with one of our local friends who selected this spot. While it looks small from the outside, it is fairly spacious inside. There is no reservation system, just a good old wait outside until your name is called. Thankfully on a Sunday morning we were seated after a brief wait. The atmosphere was quaint, the service was decent but the food was AMAZING! I had the crispy confit duck hash and it was such a flavorful unique dish, I’m absolutely enjoyed it. We also ordered the Green Eggs and The Gatherer, which was also tasty dishes.

We visited 2 days ago around 10ish and looking at the menu we just couldn’t decide what we wanted - all sounded amazing!!Ended up ordering poached eggs with mushrooms, the grilled banana porrige, orange juice, matcha tea and some toast (which by the way was 2 huge slices of sourdough ). Everything was perfect and the staff were super friendly ☺️Just a side note.. we were so full that we only managed to eat around 5ish so just to bare that in mind the portions are big!

This restaurant was recommended by my son on a recent visit to London.I visited my son who was at University in May 2021.On arrival we tried to find a table inside but unfortunately we had to do with an outside tablet, which was fine.We ordered one of their breakfasts from the menu and were not disappointed. Mine consisted of two thick rashers of tasty bacon, two poached eggs, a large mushroom, tomato, sausage and spicy beans, garnished with rocket. Beautifully presented and sumptuous in taste. Yes this recommendation lived up to its " billing". My son had changed his eggs for scrambled otherwise the same as mine. Accompanied by a Latte and Cappuccino coffees.5/5 for taste and presentation.4/5 price..£15 per breakfast.

Went here with my cousin on a Sunday and was told the wait was 20 minutes, which was expected. A while later while waiting, the lady forgot that I had put my name down earlier and kept asking for my name, before finally accepting that I was indeed on the list and could be shown to our table. We sat down and looked at the menu (which is not that extensive) and did not receive any service for 10 minutes, when we finally asked a waiter if we could have some water. We had to ask to give our orders a while later, as nobody was waiting on us. The orders took about 40 minutes (!) to arrive, while everyone around us (who even were sat after us) got served. At the end my cousin asked to have the discretionary service charge taken off the final bill as we decided it was not deserved, upon which the manager who sat us came and asked why, then kept saying the slow service was because it was busy! I don't think it was more than an average Sunday. Another issue was that the entire place had only one toilet, so there was often a queue to use the bathroom. On the up-side the food was quite good (biggest portion of french toast I've ever had - wasn't able to finish it) and the freshly pressed juice I also really enjoyed.

En nuestro viaje de una semana por Londres, todos fueron cálidos, amables y serviciales. Ese fue el caso hasta que vinimos aquí para desayunar una mañana. Habiendo visto excelentes críticas en Google, decidimos pasar.Desde el principio, la camarera que teníamos no parecía satisfecha con nosotros. Muy breve con nosotros en la forma de preguntar, "¿qué quieres beber?" Normalmente, esto no sería un problema si estuviera teniendo un mal día o algo así, pero también estaba atendiendo las mesas adyacentes y era completamente diferente en su comportamiento cuando interactúa con ellos. Los demás eran obviamente asiduos y nosotros obviamente turistas con acentos estadounidenses.Nuestra comida tardó una eternidad y era muy básica, no genial, no terrible. Ella no vino a rellenar nuestras bebidas en absoluto. Y cuando terminamos, no se la encontraba en ninguna parte. Probablemente esperamos y conversamos durante 25 minutos antes de que me levantara a buscarla, ya que teníamos cosas turísticas que hacer ese día. Estaba conversando con la persona detrás de la barra, totalmente comprometida. Le pregunté si podíamos recibir nuestra factura, ella me miró fijamente, hubo un incómodo silencio de 15 segundos antes de mudarse y cerrarnos.Comida normal, muy mal servicio y tardó una eternidad. Nunca volvería

Vi que este lugar de brunch fue muy revisado y mis amigos y yo decidimos probarlo un sábado. De acuerdo, esperaba una larga espera dado que era un sábado, pero cuando aparecimos no había cola y la señora nos dijo que estaríamos sentados en 15 minutos. Esos 15 minutos eventualmente se convirtieron en una hora y 15 minutos, lo que hubiera sido genial si ella nos hubiera dicho eso originalmente. A la media hora, estábamos atrapados en la espera dado que los lugares a nuestro alrededor tenían tiempos de espera similares. Cuando finalmente nos sentamos, nos dieron asientos en el bar, que no son nada cómodos. Sé que el lugar es un lugar informal para cenar y tiene una "vibra nerviosa", pero el cuero se está cayendo de los asientos y esencialmente estás sentado en el marco de una silla de metal, lo que no es ideal. A pesar de todo esto, estaba convencido de que la comida satisfaría mis expectativas y ¡perseveré! ! Pero . . . 3) 90 para tostadas es ridículo y mis dos amigos huevos escalfados eran duros! La comida era muy normal por el precio, a pesar de ser agradablemente presentada. No me molestaría en esperar este lugar. . . ve a Bills en el camino para un brunch más barato.

La comida es deliciosa aquí, pero consíguela comida para llevar. Suben mucho el precio cuando comes y puedes terminar gastando más de 10 en una ensalada solo.

Firstly, the decor was modern and clean. I found the staff polite. The food was nicely presented and tasty, but pricey. I was excited to taste the water as it looked very appealing with a bunch of fresh mint in the carafe, however it was completely tasteless and odourless, so had obviously been topped up without changing the herbs. However, the biggest disappointment was the treatment to my vegan/gluten free daughter. The menu stated vegan options, yet there were none. There was one dish that contained no gluten but it did include an egg. She asked the waiter if she could exchange the egg for some mushrooms or tomatoes. He told her she could opt to remove egg but they would not substitute. If she wanted anything else it would be at an extra charge of £3 plus per item. I understand that the management do not want to do this on a regular basis, but when they cannot offer a vegan option , i think that attitude stinks. Especially when you consider that the cost of her food was £12 plus and for the 4 of us to have breakfast and coffee it came to a total of £71 !! I Wouldn’t recommend this cafe as there are many obliging coffee shops in the area

I went for bottomless brunch and was disappointed. Food was mediocre, and unlike other bottomless brunch places they refused to leave the bottle at your table, so you have to wait 5 minutes whenever your glass is empty for them to top up. They don't give you your first drink til around 15 minutes after you arrive, and don't refill your glass in the last 10 minutes of your session as it's near the end. Overall just felt very stingy, must be a very stingy nasty manager making their staff act like this. Maybe try giving customers a good experience than just trying to make a profit from them? You may find you are more successful.

Found this place after been recommended in google. Nice location, great atmosphere, great service. Wasn’t impressed as much as I thought I would be with the food. And of course, a bit disappointed with pricing .. brunch for one £17 ?? And at the top of the bill 10-15% service charge... unfortunately this was something that really put me off. My experience overall ok.

Lots of locals. Lots of choices. Good fast service. Good food. Good coffee. Sat outside under heaters. Enough said.

In search of a little coffee place for breakfast in Covent Garden; this one is a bit out of touristy area but very nice indeed. The breakfast selection is great; went there once and came back again the following day, yes it’s that good. Cozy and delicious

Really delicious brunches to be had in this lovely eatery. The service is always pleasant and the food choices are varied.

Noi siamo andati in quello in Sloane street ma vedo che qui ancora non c’è comunque colazioni super con le uova alla benedict fatte benissimo e poi dolcetti torte e succhi.

伝統的なイングリッシュブレックファストというよりは少しモダンな感じですが、すごく美味しいです。Hashesはハッシュブラウンを潰したものでなかなか美味しいく、特に付いているケチャップが手作りでこれがかなり美味しかった!サラダランチもサラダの種類が6種類ほどあり、これはテイクアウトも可能!テイクアウトだとLarge Boxでサラダ3種類+Protein(チキンかサーモン)1種類で£7.9でお手軽、でもかなりボリュームがあったので、女性はSmall boxがおすすめ。

We went to the black penny on a Sunday. The food was very good and the staff lovely which made the occasion.

Wanted a place to chill out for a while prior to meeting friends later. This place fitted the bill nicely. Comfortably modern, good service and tasty drinks. We didn’t eat but would definitely try food as well next time.

This might’ve been my favorite breakfast in London. Such a neat interior and great menu. I’d highly recommend visiting this place - get the French toast!!

£3.94 for a glass of orange juice that tasted no different or better to any other juice. Nothing good to say about the place after that

We were heading out of London and looking for a fabulous meal to end with and found it at the Black Penny. We had to eat outside on a cold morning because it was too busy. The heaters did not provide any heat from what I noticed but the food was amazing. There were 5 of us eating, we all ordered different items and all the meals were excellent. I would go again but hopefully it would be warm or we’d have better timing. Skip the hot chocolate for the price.

My Mumma and I came here for brunch and were not disappointed. I had green scrambled egg with smoked salmon, my mum had a poached egg breakfast and the ladies sat next to us had sour bread, roasted nuts, fresh blueberries and lemon ricotta. They scored their food 12/10. The seating was not very comfortable and space is limited, so it’s not a place to go for s leisurely catch up with friends but the food and service is top notch.

Nice place. Friendly service, delicious cakes and a solid cuppa. Was glad to snag a seat at the front window just as the lunch rush seemed to be ending. I like that the Black Penny's near Covent Garden but not in the heavily touristed centre of it all. I'll be back.

Went here for lunch yesterday with my son whose office is nearby and he often orders a lunch to take out from here. We ate in and ordered the chicken with 2 salads each plus a ginger shot. Prompt service. Flavoursome food. Reasonable price for this part of a London. The ginger shot ( with honey) was a first for me - enjoyed it and it certain clears your sinuses!

Very bad experience with the staff. I had a meeting at Black Penny for business during the lunchtime and staff person was explicitly pushing me to order food and upsell more expensive options. He interrupted the conversation several times to insist on the order. At the end I got no smile or thank you. Very disappointing experience, not recommended.
