I had breakfast here this morning. The service was about what I expected—nothing terrible, but not impressive either, given I had read beforehand that service can be lacking. The food was fine, though I’ve had better at places like Coppa Club Tower Bridge. After breakfast, my partner ordered a mint tea, and things slowed down considerably. We ended up waiting quite a while, and I eventually had to ask for the bill. Not long after, a gentleman who appeared to work there (without a uniform) rather abruptly told us to vacate the table as others were waiting. Unfortunately, his tone and manner came across as quite rude and unprofessional, which left a sour taste in the experience. Overall, while the food was okay, the service and attitude left much to be desired. I’m not sure we’ll return. Would Recommend customer service training to the gentlemen..

Oh my word! What a breakfast we had. We visited on the way to an Appt at GOSH I checked the menu the night before and was so happy they had Salt beef hash I forgot to check my son could eat there as he has multiple allergies! Whoops! We were able to ask about certain dishes and although he couldn’t have the options they were more than happy for us to pop to M&S and get him some safe foods. We had the Salt beef Hashx2 , Sucuk & Scrambled eggs, Avo and poached eggs on sourdough and it was all fabulous! The Salt beef hash was amazing! It was on the pricey side but I wouldn’t hesitate to go back! Oh and the fresh orange juice and fresh apple were banging! Highly recommend
