"Not one to write a bad review (and I’ve been a Gail’s regular for 4 years) but this was my first time at this branch having moved to the area and the staff actually really just p*ssed me off. Ordered a breakfast tea, for which I wasn’t given a spoon so I went back to the counter to ask for one and he (long ish brown hair, quite tall) gave me a table spoon and huffed when I said actually i need a teaspoon for tea please. No apology obvs. Then when I sat down I realised they’d given me earl grey tea instead of breakfast tea. I politely told them and they tried to tell me that a breakfast tea is actually earl grey but they would swap it for me as a favour essentially. Sat back down and realised they’d given me earl grey AGAIN. I went back up to the counter and said I promise I’m not being difficult but that’s not breakfast tea. They literally laughed at me and basically gaslit me saying it’s breakfast tea and they couldn’t do anything else for me. I asked them to compare the smell of the tea leaves with an English breakfast tea bag, to which they laughed together and said some numpty has mixed up the tea leaves. Still no apology, just rudeness and finally got a mug with a tea bag in but no pot. I actually never want to return to this branch. Given me a good reason to use independent coffee shops more.."

Had a cappuccino and cinnamon roll and frankly both lacked. The cappuccino was more a latte…was a big fan. The focus is on ‘was’

It was 7 in the morning and a lovely guy with little braids welcomed me as if I were the best thing in his day. So kind! Great cappuccino

The food at this restaurant is perfectly seasoned and authentic, and the service is outstanding. It is my favorite restaurant in South Kensington.

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, with a variety of spices that enhanced the flavors of each dish. The service was exceptional and made our dinner even more enjoyable. This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem that is worth a visit.

The service used to be good I’ve been a customer for several years but recently they just dump the food on a plate (no cutlery, no napkins, no cups or trays). When they’re charging extortionate rates for eat in, one would expect a decent service and presentation to justify the cost.
Huda
Very wonderful, all the foods are delicious, sweet and salty, delicious and of great variety.. The dried tomato and pesto quiche is delicious. The egg sandwich is excellent. The ricotta and strawberries are very sweet. Really delicious. Everything they have is worth trying.. The tea is in a jug and is enough for two to three people, and it is heavy enough for milk. There are indoor sessions and in the basement. The service is excellent and fast.
