I loved the decor and atmosphere. Food: My friend and I both ordered the traditional English breakfast. I had mine with vegan sausage. The breakfast was exactly what I expected and was pretty good. I was excited they had a vegan sausage option instead of leaving the sausage off like other places. Service: Our service was quick and friendly. We were able to order promptly and our food came out in an expected amount of time. There is a bit of a time limit for stays because they are so busy, but we didn't feel rushed at all. TL;DR - Lovely place for an English breakfast

It was nice to have some vegetables and it was enjoyable. The vanilla scone came in warm and enough clotted cream and jam. The pot of tea was plenty for 2 people. The quality of tea is nothing special just a traditional British breakfast tea. The service was fast and friendly. The interior was decorated that really feels traditionally British, it was a nice touch to the overall experience. Cute tea cups were used as well.

Located in a beautiful hotel with a calm and quiet lounge, the beautiful room was filled with patrons sipping tea. The sandwiches were fresh and tasty.

If you are in London and looking for a relaxing / quiet tea experience, St Ermin's Tea Lounge is beautifully decorated, tasty and a memorable event.

I ordered the Nutella strawberry waffle and iced chocolate from this place. As a big chocolate…read morefanatic, both were to die for. The iced chocolate is a classic and exceeded my expectations of richness and flavor. It was a little moist and bland here and there but otherwise golden. The waffle was quite good - they folded it which stopped it from being a mess. The workers there were quite nice. Service was quick and yummy. The ambiance is some dim-ish lights with nice decor. The only thing I will say is that you must use an iPad to order, which is unfortunate as there's not much human interaction aside from when your food is ready. But otherwise, I do recommend when or if you have a stay in London!

Ambiance was nice, bit of a small place but ample seating. I sat outside. FYI though, they don't have a bathroom so you'll need to find another place if you're dining in and needing to use a restroom. That's the only downfall to this place.

Yummilicious pastries. Not a huge selection, but enough to have something for everyone. Cinnamon…read moreswirl,black current crumble cake, and guest pastry were all good. Also offered a couple of sandwiches but we did not try them. Had a nice selection of can drinks (OJ, Red Bull, etc.). The iced latte was amazing. The service was not friendly, but it was a quick in and out (express location). Which also means that there is no seating except for 4 chairs outside. They appear to have a back room, but it was not open. All and all it was a good stop for a coffee and pastry on the go. Not a good stop for a lingering morning breakfast.

Full English Breakfast on a Monday morning hits the spot…read more Arrived at 8 AM and there was no wait on a Monday. We ordered the full English breakfast which comes with tea, blood sausage, sunny side up egg, bacon, turnip cake, hash brown, sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes, and of course, beans and toast. The plate is super filling. I loved how crispy the hash browns were. The beans were sweet and paired nicely with the toast and egg. The only con is the bacon was pretty salty. Service was friendly and efficient. They took away our plates for us. Make sure to order before getting seated. They'll call your number at the front counter when it's ready. The meal is huge, so I'd recommend sharing or ordering based off what you'd like to eat.

After reading about all of the wonderful coffee places springing up in the City in the last few…read moremonths, jealousy began to take hold of the workers in the St James's Park/Victoria area. Around here it's all been the main chains, and lunchtime sandwich bars. Quality's therefore ranged from acceptably-above-mediocre to DIRE. With the arrival of Fabio & Charlie and The Flat Cap Coffee Company however all this has changed, and proper coffee can be found in the streets of Westminster! Fabio is an expert barista with incredible knowledge and attention to detail, and insists on using high-quality ingredients (incl. Square Mile Coffee) to produce a cup which is something I genuinely look forward to in the morning (as opposed to the routine "heart starter" that a coffee once was). The prices are on par with other places around the area - somewhere in the vicinity of £1.80 to £2.20 depending on what you're having. They also sell a very tasty range of pastries & whatnot brought in from Villandry, although you've usually got to get in pretty quick in the morning!

Upon a visit to the palace we spent a little time in the cafe for a late morning snack. The space…read morewas open and set up like a cafeteria with counter service. They had a variety of options including a souvenir English tea box set. I did consider getting this, but it was a little pricey just because it gave you a souvenir box. We opted for a caned g&t, iced coffee and scones. Overall, all of the items were tasty. The space however, was quite crowded and had a very high number of bees buzzing about. So many that we had to move to a different spot, but that area was also active with bees. This resulted in us cutting our visit a bit shorter than we had liked. Since you can't take pictures inside the palace, the spot is a good one to snap some pics of the outside of the palace and allows you to say you've had tea at Buckingham Palace.

It's like having a tea party at the palace just without all the fancy tea cups haha :)…read more I got a cappuccino which was so adorable! They used powder to make a crown on the foam. I also felt the need to drink tea too (so I could say that I had tea at Buckingham Palace) so I decided to get the peppermint tea which was very soothing. Along with the drinks, my family and I shared a few of the goodies from the café such as the salmon and cream cheese on an english muffin and a few desserts. Our favorite treat hands down was a type of strawberry short cake (not sure the name but i'll upload a picture). We had to go back and buy another after. Besides the food and drinks, you get to enjoy it all with the beautiful view of the gardens.
