The Breakfast Club in City of London, Westminster

Probablement l'une des meilleures expérience en tant qu'allergique! Je connaissais déjà cet endroit pour y avoir mangé à plusieurs reprises lorsque je vivais à Londres et voulais faire découvrir le brunch à ma sœur lors de notre court séjour dans cette fabuleuse ville . Malheureusement toutes deux très allergiques à la cacahuète et à la noix, nous avons directement mentionné cela lors de la prise de commande et quelle surprise de voir autant d'investissement et d'intérêt ! Le serveur m'a mentionné le fait qu'il y a actuellement une contamination avec la moutarde et m'a demandé si j'en étais informée. Le message a été aussitôt transmis à l'une de ses collègue qui est ensuite venue à notre table, ce qui prouve une très bonne et réelle communication entre la team de "The Breakfast club" à spitalfields. Tout était parfait et cela a donné un gout encore meilleure à toute l'expérience, Merci infiniment à la super équipe et à l'investissement des personnes qui y travaille! c'est un tel plaisir de voir cela! Sans mentionner que notre assiette était un vrai délice!

The place is nice and the service is friendly, so it's a discreet address. But I have to say that it's quite expensive with no alternatives under a certain amount, and since it's breakfast it seems unbalanced. Then of course there are very large dishes so maybe it's just a different approach which as an Italian I don't understand. I had some very good pancakes, my partner a Hamburg with fried egg which however was a little overcooked (it was hard). I wouldn't go back. Very very very noisy.

Food was slow to arrive. My wife didn't enjoy the smashed avocado on sourdough as the bread was too hard to eat. Not terrible, would give another chance....

A wonderful start to the day with a hearty English breakfast! The hash browns were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside - a perfect combination with the fried sausages, beans and eggs. The pancakes were particularly convincing: airy and light, whether sweet with fresh berries or with bacon, cheese and fried eggs and maple syrup. Kudos to the kitchen for the preparation. Everything was perfectly rounded off by the friendly and attentive service.

Posto ideale per un classico brunch inglese in coppia o con gli amici. Location estremamente ospitale e caratteristica, personale gentile e prezzi assolutamente nella media per Londra. Menù molto vario, noi abbiamo optato per il classico brunch con pancake, uova e bacon ma vi erano davvero tante opzioni per tutti i gusti: dagli avocado toast, al salmone fino ai classici pancake con condimento dolce.

It took about 45 minutes to get the food and it was cold. It took about 15 minutes to get my first coffee. At which point my order was still not taken. Five minutes later someone finally decided to take my order. Another 30 minutes later my food arrived from wherever there kitchen is in a dumbwaiter that was completely full of orders that, presumably like mine, had been sitting there getting cold. I ordered another latte. It took 10 minutes. This place sucks.

Visited for a late brunch & didn’t disappoint. The queue was worth the wait, large portions, strong coffee and the best potatoes we’ve ever had! Will definitely be back.

Great buzz and lovely service, but the pancakes only had a slither of butter on them, while the eggs Bénédicte were on a slightly stale muffin and with very little Hollandaise sauce. Good bacon though.

I was recommend this establishment to visit for Breakfast and I was not disappointed. Could not say enough about it.

The chef’s eggs were the best eggs I’ve ever eaten in my life: poached to literally perfection, spicy, tangy, a little sweet from the yoghurt dip and the bread was also perfect. (Only 11 pounds!!)

Delicious breakfast, great menu. Staff was very kind. My only issue is that the place is extremely loud.

Great breakfast and service, worth to try

Food was great - we had chicken waffles and salmon on scrambled eggs. Staff were friendly but rather busy and a 12% service fee is added to the bill. Convenient location near Liverpool Street Station, nice food, and decent service.

Nice restaurant with a great relaxed atmosphere. Menu has something for everyone, good vegan and veggie options. I tried the veg breakfast for evening meal, which was great. Would have preferred 2 eggs, but other than that, portion size was great. Added cheeky side of fries. Veggie sausage were some of the best I've ever had. My friend ordered pancakes with veggie bacon and peaches.. it was also great.

Really fun young-at-heart place to have breakfast. Brilliant food. Point deduction volume

Happens to so many great indie brands: as they grow, they dump the vibe which made them great and chase the dollar. The food remains on the good side of ok, but the staff are all clearly now driven to plus-sell by all means necessary. You won't even have sat down and they'll be asking for an order for an early coffee. Serving their beverages luke warm, they know that you'll be wanting a second, small £4 coffee long before your food arrives. Great breakfast restaurants provide fresh water as you arrive - without being asked. Then, as you order, optional extra items are phrased as if they are part of the meal. Order eggs benedict and you'll be asked 'is that with hash browns or fried potatoes'? As if it's an integral option. It's not - it's an additional item, and the tourists fall for it every time. Have been using BC for years but I'll probably leave it to the tourists now.

The restaurant is well-located, large, and only has indoor seating. It’s nicely decorated, and I recommend making a reservation because it’s always busy. We were a group of 7 (without a reservation) and had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. The service is quick, and the food is delicious. It was really very good. Prices are reasonable, and the staff are friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.

A buzzy and decent breakfast option. I had breakfast here on a Thursday morning in August, the place was packed. The service was swift, the food was good as was the coffee - a big tick to start the day for me.

Great range across the menu for food and drinks. Smiles everywhere with a great atmosphere

Great atmosphere, my husband's food the "All American" was really good but my waffle was made of rubber.

You walk through a fridge to a secret bar. It's very cool. Pun intended

Busy restaurant but the food is amazing

Food and coffee excellent, but music incredibly loud, so had to raise your voice to chat. Service good

Good breakfast. Everything nice…👀 Only one minor thing, I felt like the waffle was not fresh. It tasted like the ones you buy from Aldi but dry. Like when you try and eat warm paper, you know what I mean ? If you go, avoid waffles at all costs.

Amazing food as always, but the music was just too loud - you can barely hear anyone in there. They do have great gluten free pancakes and bread though.

Came here for a quick brunch after work and had to wait a small queue at the entrance that's how popular it was! Yummy egg florentine the sauce was tasty!

Staff were really friendly and atmosphere was very relaxed. The food was great as usual, but the portions are small for the price (hence the 4*). I also really like that they serve the tea in a proper mug.

The only quibble is why the toast is sourdough, which makes it impossible to cut. Whole meal or white bread would work better Fantastic none the less

Two visits in the space of a few days. Food was spot on and good size portions.

Absolutely a must: the pancakes are incredible. For a super quality breakfast/brunch for a very reasonable price. We want to go back!!

The Breakfast Club is a real gem for breakfast lovers. From the moment I entered the restaurant I felt welcome. The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting, ideal for a relaxed start to the day. The menu selection is impressive and offers a variety of delicious options to suit all tastes. I particularly appreciate the generous portions, which ensure that you are full and satisfied. Another highlight is the transparent indication of the calories per dish, which makes it easy to choose consciously. The staff at the Breakfast Club are outstanding – always attentive, friendly and very accommodating. You can tell that the focus here is on the customer. Whether you prefer a traditional breakfast or want to try something new, you will definitely find what you are looking for here. I can only warmly recommend the Breakfast Club and look forward to my next visit.

Great breakfast place full of tasty options. 4 stars only as it get's very loud in there. A bit of sound treatment would make it a lot nicer.

Wonderful venue with the best staff service and food. A huge plus I felt my rucksack had been taken whereas stupid me I had left it on the train. Your wonderful manager rang me and I returned and she had reviewed their CCTV and I had entered without the rucksack. Went to the cleaning crew on Platform 2 and Caspa the head cleaner had my rucksack. To all of you at The Breakfast Club you are just so amazing.

Had a great time here for lunch. Would love to go back on my next trip to London to try more from the menu

Nothing mind-blowing, but it was a delicious treat. I loved the vanilla lemon cream on top of the pancakes.

Great place for brunch. Food took a bit longer than I expected, but I love the atmosphere. And services were impeccable.

The best breakfast I have ever had! The Ava toast with beans & bacon to die for! This is definitely going to be on top of my list!

Tasty breakfast had by the whole family. Really good veggie options , decent portions. Good atmosphere and very cool mixed clientele. Lovely sausages , bacon and not too American for my tastes though.

Vibe was great, food and coffee was below average. No need to book, just turn up. The queue can get big but it moves pretty quickly.

Fabulous spot for some breakfast. Arrived quite early on a Sunday morning and despite the streets being empty, inside breakfast club was a lovely buzzy atmosphere (again, even though there were only about 3 tables occupied). Staff were polite and attentive, always checking if we needed anything else without being pushy. Menu is extensive for breakfast and found myself wanting 3 different options but decided on a berry pancake stack (can't remember the exact name) and it was delicious. Lots of cream, strawberries were very sweet, tasted like freshly picked British strawberries and the pancakes themselves were lovely and fluffy. Inside is very nicely decorated. Can't fault a thing, next time we are in London will definitely be back. Maybe they could pop up in Manchester next 👍🏼

Lovely and popular place. There was a bit of a queue but we were seated within 10mins so that wasn’t too bad. Had salmon with pouched eggs. 🤤 was very good. Staff was busy but kept friendly.

We arrived from Germany today and decided to have breakfast here. The woman who served us was incredibly nice and helpful, the food was great, as were the drinks. The ambience was a bit loud, but still very pleasant and nicely decorated. We'd love to come back!

Visited here for the first time. It has rustic and attractive aesthetics. For the food they do and the portion size I believe it is fairly expensive. I had the Chefs special which was 2 poached eggs with sour dough, greek yoghurt and sliced aubergine (about 4 slices or so) for £11. The portion size was on the small side and this did not fill me up however it was tasty.

Service was excellent, food was OK. Note that the place is noisy Tip : ask for your fresh juice with no ice

Good and service were great. A bit noisy but I guess is fine for a Saturday morning mood. Vegetable milk option was only oat milk.

Good English taste breakfast. Good to have a visit to try on thier breakfast and flat white. 😋

Good place for breakfast in central London. The food was good and the staff are nice

They received us quite well, they even allowed us to leave our suitcases in a place so that it would be uncomfortable. As for the food, pretty good, very tasty, they serve quickly. Prices for the area are quite correct.

It is a good place to start the day, the service is good and they have a wide variety of breakfasts.

Went there for a short pancake dinner. Even though the palace was not crowded, it took over 15 minutes to get the food... Having a conversation was out of the question: the noise level was overbearing. We sat across each other on the table, and couldn't hear one another :-( The food was tasty. Too many ice cubes in the juice.

Asked at the start they we were there for the milkshakes. Staff sat us down and then send they had everything except milkshakes. Ordered drinks instead. The Breakfast Negroni was very odd, the “Mai Tai” was just juice, and they upcharged our mimosa when we asked for a standard. Also did not appreciate the mandatory service charge that was snuck on to the charge.

Good food and very fast service.

Delicious food, good service. Busy to come for brunch. You might need to wait outside to come in. But it’s worth it.

Nice place to have brunch. I love the grand royal benedict, the egg is cooked to be perfect and the sauce is delicious.

Great service and amazing food, I would highly recommend it.

Four of us had breakfast and were not disappointed! From the classic English breakfast to blueberry pancakes and Turkish poached eggs, there is a great selection. Everything really impressed us, both visually and taste-wise! The cozy atmosphere in particular made the start of the day wonderful. The service could be a little more attentive, but as it was very busy that day it was fine - still VERY friendly. We will be back!

I love it, every time I go to London I stop by to have a good breakfast!

Decent place to grab some breakfast.

First off, you can now reserve at one of their locations. Second thing of nope, a very decent cup of tea. Thirdly as a very decent breakfast and pretty good value for money perhaps £25 per head with breakfast plate and a couple of teas or coffees per person. Location Wise this is very close to Liverpool Street station

The food was good, and the staff were welcoming and served us promptly. However, the stealthy upselling and mandatory service charge are absurd. As a non-native speaker, I looked up the term "Discretionary Service Charge" that was added to my bill without my consent. It states that the service charge should be optional. I would have been happy to add a tip, but I would like to be asked for it. Additionally, when asked if I wanted potatoes or hash browns, it sounded as if a side was included with the meal and I had to choose one. In reality, it was an extra option.

Restaurant with various breakfasts with a very good atmosphere and good quality/quantity/price ratio. There is everything for all tastes and everything is very good. You have to be patient because it is usually full. Recommended 100%

Great breakfast and loved the coffee here.

I got vegan breakfast, which mimics a classic english breakfast pretty well, with fake bacon, scrambled eggs, beans, hash browns and mushrooms.

We turned up without a reservation at around 10.30 and the restaurant was busy but luckily there were a couple of free tables to there was no wait. Staff were friendly and efficient. The menu is great with lots of choice! The prices seem a little high but actually they aren’t as you get loads of food for your money and it’s in a brilliant location. Might be worth pre booking a table if you’re able as this is definitely a popular spot!

Good food and good atmosphere. Many people were happy to stand in line for a while.

As always, everything was great.

If there's a queue, join it. We didn't wait long to be seated. Food and atmosphere is amazing. One of the London experiences!!

Quirky and retro styling to the place. We arrived early and although it was busy, we got a table straight away. The food was very tasty, cooked fresh and served quite quickly. Pancakes, vanilla cream, berries and maple syrup for me and egg, avocado and mushroom for my wife. Great service and great quality food….cant wait to return.

We spontaneously decided on this restaurant. The rather sizable queue didn't deter us and after waiting a quarter of an hour we were inside. Everything was delicious and tasty prepared. The service was nice and we were full afterwards.

Having just landed at Heathrow after an eight- hour flight, I stumbled into the Breakfast Club feeling jet-legged and famished. Luckily for me, the food at this exceptional brunch joint was more than enough to restore my energy. I started with several cups of Earl Grey and immediately noticed how much better English tea is than the tea found in my native U.S. It was so spectacular that I finished the whole pot. For my entree, I ordered the club med benedict. It was one of the best breakfast dishes I’ve ever tasted. The English muffin was buttery and perfectly toasted. A refreshing dollop of avocado was spread on top along with a zesty drizzle of pesto hollandaise. Sun-dried tomatoes added an intriguing element of texture while a runny, poached egg brought the whole glorious dish together. Best of all: the fried halloumi on top. This restaurant added their own twist on a breakfast classic to enliven the benedict with a chewy, sumptuous cheese. The result couldn’t have been tastier. I recommend the Breakfast Club not only for the food, but for its friendly and jovial staff. They were the first people to welcome me to England for the first time. I started off my British vacation on the right foot at this restaurant and will remember my meal here long after returning home.

Had a fantastic pre-work breakfast. Best way to start the week! Good coffee, friendly service, relaxed atmosphere.

Very overpriced for what you get, plus "discretionary service charge" is a bit rich. Additional info in response to owners comments: if you are buying top quality ingredients, then you may need to consider whether your staff are getting the best out of them as I would consider the meal I received to be underwhelming in both taste, presentation, and portioning. I had the unfortunate experience of having an eggs Benedict at an airport Wetherspoons the day before I had it at your restaurant and there was negligible difference.

Booked a table for brunch, arrived an hour early but was able to get seated earlier. The online booking system was easy and saved having to queue, which was consistently long. Staff are very friendly and efficient. Food arrived quickly and in the most part was of good quality. I ordered the eggs benedict, the bacon was overcooked and like jerky, the muffin were completely overcooked, one was burnt. Was so tough i couldn't even cut them with the knife. The poached eggs are very nice but tiny, i gave up on the dish before i could finish as it was too tough and could taste burnt muffin. Instead of my meal discounted or comped, they took my £4 cappuccino off the bill, it was so busy i felt like i couldn't complain. I also ordered french toast which was cold and tasted grim. Expensive and overrated. Wouldn't eat here again and don't recommend. It's a shame as this was one of my must try places to eat and i left disappointed.

Good food, nice space, ideal for brunches

Used to eat here a lot when I lived in London 12 years ago, so was looking forward to lunch today. Sad to say, very disappointed. Instead of 2 sausages it was 2 slices of sausage. The Apple burger was cold in the centre and the portions are consider smaller than they used to be. The coffee tasted like dish water, no flavour at all and the hot chocolate is quite clearly a chocolate powder and hot water. Tasteless. Very disappointed and won’t be returning again.

Very attentive and helpful waiters. Thank you

Loved it. Since the American Diners seem to die out in London, this is a good place to get those vibes along with great food. Best pancakes I had so far.

I recommend this store that is very friendly to travelers. On that day, 3 people pushed 4 large and 1 small suitcases into the store for consumption. The on-site service staff kindly assisted in placing the luggage. Thank you very much for being able to enjoy it here😊 Brunch is really a pleasure. I will definitely visit this restaurant again next time I come to London.

It’s a very pleasant, warm place, with a beautiful Charlie decoration. Is a caring and responsive waitress. Thanks to her for the exceptional service. My dish lived up to my expectations

Professionals at the start. Unique drinks with ideas and humor.

Was not expecting awful experience first time and last time coming here. Service was poor, seems like they don’t care to provide custom for there paying customers.

Really disappointed with our breakfast here. It was extremely busy and we queued for almost an hour - having expected 20 mins. I had poached eggs with smoked salmon which cost £16.50. certainly not worth it. A small portion of smoked salmon, cold eggs and a very chewy muffin which could not be cut with the knife provided. Over-hyped is the best description of this place. I would certainly not go back, neither would my daughter who had the rancheros on a soggy tortilla.

Had breakfast here on a Wednesday morning, wasn't too busy and there was no waiting. The service is nice and friendly. Had the Eggs Benedict, it was decent, I do think the hollandaise sauce could have been a bit better tho, and it's a little bit pricy. Other than that, it was a good experience.

Will advertise they do gluten free but not safe for ceoliacs as cc is super high risk. Everything is cooked on a hot plate and no separate toaster. Would be great if the servers would clarify dietary requirements before the hassle of being seated.

Very tasty breakfast. Wonderful way to leave London! Expensive, as every thing in London. In 4 people, we paid 100£. I am italian, this price is crazy for a breakfast.

Everything (what we tasted) is good, much better than in many places (the products are quality). Pleasant service but a little sluggish. Lots of noise, but that's more the fault of the customers than that of the establishment. A bit expensive though.

We stopped here for breakfast before leaving, we had to wait a bit before sitting down because there was a queue. The food is very good and the staff friendly.

Bartender took my drink. Told me that the person who determines a drink is finished is him and not me (my drink was heavy done and still a neat whisky i paid heavily for in it). So forget a place like that. Better places in London. His name is Sam. To let you lot know.

Recommend booking ahead to get a table, or else you will be waiting. The service was great and the food was very good.

The best, typical place. Very good service. Excellent breakfast

We are from Spain and on our trip it was a great decision to go to this place for breakfast 🤩. The food is spectacular, I'm sorry I can't eat pancakes like that more often… We found it by chance and it made our day! If we knew before we had breakfast here every day!

At the beginning, I came here without really what to expect (I was on vacation), and at the end I was really happy to have come here. The staff are nice and cool, the Breakfast Club are very clean, welcoming and calm place to be the morning. I tried their pancakes the chantilly cream (I think it was chantilly cream) was a bit too much for me because the portion are generous (look the pictures) but the chantilly still very good 😊. If I come back in London I will come again at the Breakfast Club. The hot chocolate was delicious and not filling at all which is a good point 😄.

Great decor, great service, a bit crowded but worth the vibe. Food was delicious and if you have a sweet tooth you going to love the banana pecan French toast.

The "Breakfast Club". My first visit, and what a fabulous breakfast experience. Just wish I lived closer to London. Highly recommended.

Excellent place to have a brunch or an English breakfast. Standard prices for the London average.

Servers were friendly. I ordered chorizo hash - a huge potion and tasted really good. Will come back again when I’m in town next time.

Really impressed with the food here! We stopped by on a Sunday morning, so it was fairly busy, but we only had to wait 10 minutes before being seated. Despite how busy they were, the staff were excellent and very attentive. The food came quite quickly. The vegan breakfast was absolutely delicious, as were the drinks. We'll definitely be back!

Very loud music, very noisy. Very unsuitable for the morning breakfast atmosphere.

After a long awaited visit from us northerners, we left really disappointed. Initially we had a really lovely reception from the [lady] front of house. Warm and welcoming, but it stopped there. There wasn't much interaction, everyone appeared to be rushing around and our food was cold by the time it got to the table. What really didn't sit right was when we asked for the service charge to be removed. It's always a difficult subject to broach but our waitor barely interacted with us/helped us. Those who ask for it to be removed shouldn't be made to feel unwelcome or be at the recieving end of an abrupt, cold and rude response from the server. For that reason - we won't be returning.

Queued for about 15minutes, worth the wait - the staff are lovely, the pancakes were delicious and drinks are done well !
