Reviews For Terry's Cafe London

There was a wait of about 40 minutes. But the breakfast was delicious and worth the wait. The great quality of the ingredients speak for themselves and you get a good portion size. This place warrants “the hype” unlike so many places in London.

It was my goal to eat a full English breakfast during my time in London and found this place through some googling. It was by far the best one I’ve had. The serving size was huge and each component was incredible. I especially loved the sausage, bacon, and grilled tomato. The tea was delectable too.

Great gem! I was looking for a brunch spot on a Saturday and came across this cafe. Their brunch menu is very extensive. The avocado and eggs on toast were very tasty, and I added some bacon on the side. Great service and quirky decor.

Visited Terry’s Cafe with my wife, we both enjoyed it very much. Great atmosphere and lovely food with cocktails. The espresso martini was one of the best I’ve had in London. Billingsgate breakfast was delicious. Had to wait for a while but was worth it.

Terry’s Cafe is an absolute gem! We came for the English breakfast and it was incredible, delicious, hearty, and full of flavor. Every bite felt like a true taste of London. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and our waiter was outstanding: super friendly, charismatic, and polite. A memorable experience that’s definitely worth having. Highly recommended!

Had perhaps the best full English breakfast here that I've ever had. Quality ingredients, well cooked, a large portion and the option of tinned tomatoes rather than grilled Couldn't ask for anything more, but there was, great atmosphere, friendly staff, interesting old pictures up on the wall, nice mix of locals and visitors having lively conversations. Will be back if I'm in the area again.

When you see the local shopping street Terry’s Cafe London is a part of, you might not think much of it. But don’t be deceived, this is a fantastic place for proper English breakfast and more! The food, the smoothies, the coffee, the service, the atmosphere, everything was great. Highly recommended!

went in for a quick english breakfast but ended up having eggs benedict haha — plus some sweet pancakes and fruit. the eggs were delicious, can’t say the same for the pancakes (a bit too dry and hard). also had an iced latte — really good. the service was more than excellent, super attentive. the whole place feels nostalgic, with great details all around.
