    The location and the view - fantastic. Sat outside with our breakfast. The whole ambience makes it worthwhile. So one has to have a table first and then order. The drinks can be picked up next to the cash counter but the food is delivered at the table. Had ordered shakshouka. It was nice.

    The best thing about this restaurant is obviously the view. You can sit and have a drink or have a meal overlooking the lake in Hyde Park which is beautiful. In summer it is always busy but it is worth waiting to have a table and have some drinks on a sunny day. Food in general is ok, you won't be disappointed.

    Just the right place to get a drink or something. Didn't try the food here, but looked good. The best part is obviously the beautiful view. So many options, snacks, proper meals, coffee, soft drinks. Be careful with the swans and ducks, they might steal your fries if you sit by the lake 😁

    Had a great vegan salad and a delicious Camden Pale Ale in a wonderful location. Can recommend sitting here by the water to pass an hour as I did. Will return again, as long as the weather is good of course! FOLLOW for more reviews! Cheers.

    The location was great but the food and service wasn’t up to the standard. The pizza was cold and uninspiring and the service was not good as one of my friends didn’t even receive her cutlery and when we asked- we were ignored. Prices were quite expensive which were not justified. It seems that you pay more for the location rather than the quality of the food/service. Wouldn’t recommend.

I have attached the photo how she throw the knives on the table.

    A lovely spacious setting on The Serpentine Lake in Hyde Park. It was not busy the morning I was there and I found it very peaceful sitting inside (out of the cool breeze) watching the bird life. Ample outdoor seating is available as well on a clement day. The venue is well designed with a good use of space surrounded with floor to ceiling glass. I had granola with fruit for breakfast and it was very tasty with a plain Greek style yogurt. The serving was smallish which suited me but may disappoint those with a larger appetite. My coffee wasn’t bad either. Be aware you must find a table first, know your table number then order at the counter. I walked in and went straight to the counter and was rather brusquely told ‘the rule’😊. I hope to return for lunch sometime before heading home. Just a lovely place to sit and a would be perfect with a G&T or glass of wine in hand.🍸🥂 Went back next day for fruit and granola breakfast and it’s no longer on the menu 😭😭😭 Ordered the eggs Benedict which was cold and terribly disappointing!🫤 The coffee was good and hot! (Not too hot!) A bit of a queue this morning but staff remained calm and pleasant. Overall not quite 4 ⭐️ but more than 3⭐️

    Great cafe at any weather although I find it more useful during winter as it is cold outside. Fairly good selections of cakes. Seats are hard to get during peak. Great view overlooking lake Serpentine.

    We ate here yesterday, having spotted it last time I was in London and remembering how nice it looked. We arrived just before 3pm - I didn't expect we'd get a table but there were quite a few available which was great. We scanned the QR code at the table and ordered online. Food & drinks for 5 came to just over £70, which we didn't think was bad at all! Not much more than we'd pay at home, saying we were in London. Food was amazing, really, really tasty. Super quick service, and friendly waiters. Location is fab. Will definitely return!

    The view & location are both amazing. Multicultural café. However, it is very busy in the weekends, so their service may change, as well as, it is pricey & the quantity is small.

    Beautiful place just over the Hyde Park Lake with a nice view. Unfortunately, dirty tables most times. Also, it's designed for a quick drink or sandwich, not for staying and enjoying its location and the view.

    Do not eat here. Place is OK for coffee and croissant. Breakfast not. Egg benedict: eggs were hard boiled and bread oily and impossible to eat (could not even cut w knife). Very noisy and super slow. Toilets are in awful condition. Take away coffee would work

    We went there for Sunday lunch, ordered pizza and burgers, the pizza wasn’t too impressive, could have more toppings. It was very busy so it’s understandable that some order took longer than usual, but their service was great. Love the view by the lake, we sat there for a few hours and had a few pints ! The bathroom line for the ladies however was extremely long…

    The view of this place wins! I loved the Victoria Sponge Cake so much.. it’s like a piece of fluffy happiness. The egg sandwich was ok. I wish they have heating service. The place looked a bit chaotic and didn’t know how to order or which line to stand behind. It was busy and not many people around to talk to. Over all it’s a great place to enjoy a bite and the Hyde park’s lake.

  • 4/5 Lubna S. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is nice and lovely to sit in and have lunch in the park. The view outside is relaxing and beautiful. Food is good nothing special but a bit expensive for what it is. Staff were friendly. We had chips and pizza which both was good.

  • 2/5 Ricard C. 2 years ago on Google
    We went there to have breakfast in the park, but the service serving coffee was a bit rude at 8 a.m. and the food quality was really poor. It’s a shame when a well-located place is not meeting expectations. The rest of service was fine. I hope it will improve!

    Nice coffee and lunch restaurant in the middle of Hyde Park. Perfect for refreshments during your walk around the park. Nice view from the outdoor seating area.

    A great spot in sunny day just overlooking hide park lake to have a bite and a beer! We had a BBQ pulled pork burger and two lagers and we loved it .
