    This place saved my life a few times. It is everything you need and more after a long night. Amazing food and great atmosphere.

    We found this great little breakfast place off the beaten path and it is the jewel of our trip to London. The food is delicious and you receive a lot of food for the money. Everything we ordered from the breakfast sandwiches to the pancakes were prepared well and the service very good. A nice change from most of the other restaurants we visited on our trip. I strongly suggest you try the Breakfast Club. You won't be disappointed. Ciao.

    Slow Boy Juice and an English breakfast tea.

    Loved the fun atmosphere at The Breakfast Club. Friendly staff, cool decor, great music, free wifi, space to put luggage if you are heading out from Liverpool Station -- perfect place to stop in for a bite! The breakfast menu is pretty comprehensive for whatever you're looking for -- English, American, carnivore, vegetarian -- something for everyone. I enjoyed my fresh-pressed "Slow Boy Juice" as a healthy vitamin boost in anticipation of traveling. Also quite pleased with my "Reggie the Veggie" -- the veggie sausage is good, they have amazing toast, and their bbq beans were my favorite of all the English breakfasts I had in the U.K. Also enjoyed the marinated mushrooms. Basically you can't go wrong with this dish! Truly had a nice experience here killing time before our train departed. The hearty meal set me up for happy travels. Cheers!

    I have no idea how we ended up in an American style diner in the middle of London. The decor is kitschy and the menu has creative riffs on breakfast staples, but our experience was less than stellar. We entered just before noon but when trying to place an order for their Secret Egg Society specialty sandwich, we were told they could not serve it any more. I'm totally understanding of limitations on serving certain menus at certain times, but this decision didn't make any sense considering the ingredients are used in other dishes that are still available- like all the Benedicts and classics. I guess someone just doesn't want to make toast in the afternoon? But they have burgers and sandwiches available instead? Go figure. The cold brew and latte we ordered were okay, once we got past the other bizarre part where they don't have any sweetener available for drinks. The porridge with plums was surprisingly tasty. I don't understand the hype here.

    Very cool atmosphere-lots of eclectic pieces hung on the walls including artwork from guests strung up on one wall. The menu is a decent size with something for everyone to pick from. The service was quite slow-it took us a half-hour to get our coffee with our breakfast shortly after. I had a beet juice-delicious. And a chorizo burrito. Unfortunately, I was given the wrong burrito first which was FULL of mushrooms (EW), but they quickly brought a new one. We all split the pancakes and clotted cream with berries which was divine. Our server was pretty impersonal and cold but it didn't bother us any-just always adds to the experience when you have a friendly server.

    Came here with a friend after some drinking. Great place for a greasy breakfast! Great value!

    American Breakfast

    This place is a strong 4. Make it a 4+! The food was delicious. I had the American breakfast which was eggs, bacon, sausage, and waffles. The waffles had some sort of secret "make it taste good" ingredient. Loved it! Mad I didn't have more. My friend enjoyed her pulled pork breakfast as well. The wait staff was friendly, though our waitress disappeared, never to be seen again and water must be in short supply. It took three asks to get a refill. That what makes this a 4+. "You coulda been a contender."

    So funny, we went there on a Tuesday morning and the place was packed. The pros: food efficient, simple, quick, the atmosphere The cons: service impersonal and a little smile will be appreciated. To conclude, instead of going to some fast food, this deserves a detour for a nice breakfast.

    Pancakes and berries!
    Steven W.

    With a long line outside almost all the time you get here, it's a popular place with good food. After waiting in line, up to about 20 mins you can sample a mainly American themed menu. I do like the breakfast club and you should definitely give it a try. The coffee is decent and they also have a good selection of smoothies and juices. They have a lot of pancake options, American style and the usual egg choices. Service is ok, could be better

    Lemon and Ginger Tea.

    We arrived in London and needed somewhere to eat. We walked in to a little cafe, but the menu just wasn't what we wanted. We were just standing around while my fiancé looked for other options in the area. A very nice woman came up asked if we needed help, we told her that we came to check out the menu and we're looking up some other places. We told her one of the places, which was this restaurant and she advised us to go and said it was her favorite. She gave us directions and we were on our way. We walked in and we were seated right away. We got a window seat, although the restaurant is on a small side street without a view. The music was very loud for breakfast, but didn't seem overly loud. My food was ok, I wouldn't say it was great, but it wasn't bad. My fiancé ordered the breakfast burrito which was huge! They have a lot to choose from on the menu. I would probably try them out again if in Londo.

    We came here for our first traditional English breakfast and I would definitely recommend it! I got a cappuccino and Reggie the Veggie, which has veggie sausage, home-style fried potatoes, eggs, mushrooms, grilled tomato, beans and multigrain toast. Everything was delicious, the ambiance was fabulous, and the service was pretty good for such a large party. I had plenty of leftovers too - portions were massive.

    I was finally able to try Dishoom on my last trip to London and we came by with a large group so…read morewere lucky to try a variety of dishes. First, I started with the mango lassi which was so fresh and naturally sweet. I loved the fennel seeds on top for added flavor. Such a great start to the meal. My favorites of the night were the chicken ruby (a must order and crowd pleaser), lamb biryani, and black daal. The chilli chicken was also a super flavorful app to share and the garlic naan was great as well. Everything is nicely flavored and I appreciate how patient and understanding the staff were with the food allergies and restrictions our group had. Definitely a must in London!

The restaurant is much bigger than it looks, with a front patio, a bar, and multiple dining rooms. It was completely packed. After 6 p.m. it's walk-in only, and the hostess gives you a buzzer while you wait. I started with the house chai, which was warm and perfectly spiced. For dinner I ordered the Chicken Ruby, basmati rice, garlic naan, and crispy okra fries. Now I get the hype. The Chicken Ruby was rich, spicy, and packed with flavor, the naan was perfect for soaking up every bit of sauce, and the okra fries were so crunchy I couldn't stop eating them. This place absolutely lived up to its reputation. They also serve breakfast, and there's so much on the menu that I already plan to come back a few more times before I leave London.

    This was the first place I visited went to eat breakfast at when I lived in Shoreditch in 2017…read more Coming back in 2024 with another friend made me realize it was only great because of the memories of the people I was with as opposed to the food itself. The waiters were nice but the food was not the best. I got a scrambled egg on toast with smoked salmon & the salmon had a fishy smell to it, was flavorless and there was barely any hot sauce available. My friend also thought her burger was just okay as well with the biggest positive point being the bacon. That being said, the fried dough balls dipped in chocolate were really great and so were the holiday specials for alcoholic drinks. While the inside was spacious and retro and had a cool vibe, I have to knock down points for the actual food itself and wish that I had kept the memory of how much I enjoyed this place pre Covid as that since I wouldn't make my way out to this restaurant again even if I'm in the area.

    Nice interior. This was my first London diner experience. Staff were friendly. Prices are average…read more I ordered the Full Monty, which is there English breakfast. I've had better. Bacon was too oily. Potatoes tasted over-seasoned. I'm not a fan of mushrooms in general, so I couldn't tell if they were good or not, I just don't like mushrooms. I was most disappointed in the beans. They were heavily seasoned in some kind of curry, when all I wanted was normal English beans. The food wasn't terrible, I was simply expecting better quality.

    Oh. My. Goodness…read more This place is so beyond good that I have literally just finished my meal and have rushed to write a review. So I live around the corner and have always popped in, in an attempt to try their legendary burgers. I've always arrived on the last day etc etc and left it. The open hours that come up online and are not accurate and need updating, they were certainly open later than 8 when I visited on a Wednesday. Alas, today. The lovely chef/gentleman working behind the counter in 34 degree heat talked me through the options. I went for the Veg Thai green curry with rice and a beef steak (in some delicious sauce and Parmesan). The Thai green curry had unbelievable depth of flavour - actually rivalling many Thai restaurants in my opinion. The beef steak. So flipping soft. HOW!? Simply blown away. I don't really know what else to say to be honest. So much love and care has gone into this food - you can really tell - I'm serious. If you find yourself walking by and are tempted - please give it a go. Their lasagne looked amazing too... I haven't even mentioned the price - dirt cheap considering the area and far superior.. Go! Go now!! Grazie Cafe Twelve.

    I've been looking forward to visiting Duck & Waffle for quite some time. The views are incredible,…read morethe space itself is striking, and on paper it promises that perfect London mix of skyline, late-night energy, and elevated comfort food. Unfortunately, our experience was soured before it even had a chance to begin. My girlfriend and I walked in excited, completely amicable, simply hoping to head upstairs for a bite and drinks. We were greeted by the doorman with an immediate, dismissive "Are you good?" -- not in a welcoming or helpful tone, but in a way that felt skeptical and unnecessarily confrontational. There was no warmth, no "welcome in," no attempt at hospitality. It immediately set an uncomfortable tone. He then proceeded to call upstairs as though he were doing us some sort of favor just by allowing us to go up. The entire interaction felt transactional and judgmental rather than gracious. First impressions matter, especially at a place that positions itself as a premium dining destination. Hospitality begins at the door, not at the table. When we finally made it upstairs, the room was filled with visibly drunk, rowdy groups -- which only made the earlier attitude feel even more misplaced. If that environment is acceptable (and profitable), then two polite guests looking for drinks and food shouldn't be met with suspicion at the entrance. By that point, the damage was done. The initial interaction had already rubbed us the wrong way, and the energy upstairs didn't help. We ultimately decided to leave before even sitting at our table. That's how strongly the first impression impacted us. It's difficult to justify staying somewhere when you don't feel genuinely welcomed from the outset. Duck & Waffle has the potential to be memorable for all the right reasons. But someone representing the brand at the very front needs to understand that hospitality isn't optional -- it's foundational. A simple, respectful welcome would have changed everything. I hope management takes this seriously, because no guest should feel judged or dismissed before they even step inside.
