What's up with the omelettes? Having each ordered one, we both thought the texture was strange - chewy/watery like it had been on a heat plate. The waitress explained that they use a special induction machine to cook them - NOT satisfactory when you're paying £7 for a few eggs and some leaves.

Aside from that, the atmosphere was lovely and the high chair the most luxurious one I've ever seen.

Visited on the 24 February 2007. Had experienced Paul in Lille, France and wondered if it would be the same. It was much better! We went for a pastry and coffee which was delicious. We had to wait for about 10 minutes for a table at lunch time on a Saturday, the service was good and I will definitely go back.

There are many Pauls restaurants all over London. This Covent Garden Branch has an atmospheric dinng room attached, with windows through to the kitchen so you can check out the grub as its prepared. It's always pretty full, buzzing. Waitresses are smartly dressed and polite if a little officious. The food is generally very good. I've used it for breakfast on several occasions. Tasty omelettes, grreat pastries. Not disimilar to the fantastic Villandry. Worth a visit if you're in the area fr breakfast or lunch.

Went on Saturday to meet a friend. The cakes are very good and found the service good and friendly. There was a slight queue to get in, but was fine. Would recommend it as a place for tea in the afternoon after some hard shopping! Go while still unknown!

You really have to work hard to make the staff notice you so don't go when in a hurry. The savory crepes and omlettes are delicious and light and the salad is always beautifully dressed. When its less crowded in the early evening it is a really nice, quiet venue - a good place to meet your mum! Don't have the sweet crepes though as they are merely microwaved (if you are lucky, microwaved until hot!) and are thick, chewy and tasteless.

1 word: bad (staff & management)

really a shame because the good thing is the patisserie/viennoiserie, I can wait to go to Paris for that! (or Patisserie Valerie, Maison Blanc...)
