The Breakfast Club (Soho)

Fantastic food! I had the ham so eggsited with choc caramel milkshake and it was divine! Huge amount of cheese and ham with the pancakes and loads of syrup. Great value for money. Given how busy it was (had to wait for a table) service was incredibly fast but I did not feel rushed and like I had to leave. Definitely the place to go for brunch in London!

I must say I'm very surprised at the reviews below. My friend and I had brunch here last Friday. The place was a bustling, great atmosphere, cute interior. The place was almost full but we were given a place straight away. The food was delicious. I had The All American while my friend had the Ham so Eggsited. Both dishes were very tasty. We also shared the Elvis milk shake which was divine. Would definitely go back again.

the worst treatment i have endured in london so far, and at exorbitant prices....upon arrival we were told (not asked) to wait on the street until they clear a table, when we asked for two tables to save the wait yet again told to wait on the street until they were ready...knowing that there is a long walk to other cafes (and being sunday pochini's just around the corner was not open yet) we had to grin and bear it...after being seated we were met with what i can only describe as limp service. i have seen more life in a tramps vest.....upon completion of the mediocre food (butter was seriously in short supply on toast etc) we were informed that as we were a party of six or more we were required to pay a gratuiety (in my limited knoledge i understood to be a voluntary gift for good service)......i am not a habitual moaner. this is first time in my life that i have been so peaved with service that i have gone to the effort of finding a website and complaining...if i save one person from the humiliation of being ordered on to the street until further instruction i will have done a justice......oh, the black pudding was ok though

Hmmm, it's ok. Tries hard to be trendy, decent english and veggie breakfasts, good coffee. But its hot and crowded, the staff seem to be picked on looks rather than a deep commitment to customer care, service is slow (the rule of ten -10 minutes to get a menu, 10 minutes to order, 10 minutes for coffee to arrive, 10 minutes for food to arrive, 10 minutes to eat it and clear off because by then you're just tired of being there). And don't order the cheese and marmite toastie - it's made by a pathological marmite hater who just wants to get as much out of his kitchen as he can, and thinks it should be spread like nutella. Get one at Starbucks.

We went here for work lunch and walked out after over an hour and 20mins because our food still hadn't arrived! I'm all for relaxed service, but this was casual to the point of apathy. 15 minutes to take our order, then the waiter messed up our water order 3 times, and it went downhill from there. We explained we had limited time as we had to get back to work, but the staff didn't appear to be particularly bothered until we threatened to leave after an hour. We overheard that it was only then that they started cooking our meal. After waiting another 15 mins, we got an offer of takeaways (not the way I like to eat my bacon and eggs), the food still hadn't arrived and we gave up and left. Ive been here before and enjoyed it, but this experience was so bad I will never return and neither will the people I went with.

Went there on a Saturday afternoon and the place seemed full. We waited next to the door to be seated, as requested by a little sign. We waited long minutes, lots of waitresses passing by, but none of them even acknowledged us, not a smile, nothing. We had to leave. It is just very upsetting to have people ignoring you like that, it's a first for me!

Notes are not reflecting the restaurant, as I didn't eat there!
