Paul

This is a wonderful place. Pastries are out of this world. Staff friendly. Just down the street from Harrods. Highly recommend.

Baristas were unbelievably rude. Pastries were ok and had no hot chocolate...the one reason we came...go somewhere else.

When I don't need a superstrong caffeine boost and there's no independent coffee shop in sight, then Paul is one of my go-to options.

It's good coffee, excellent pastries and fast service.

This particular outlet has quite a narrow entry, which makes it cramped if there's a crowd, but they have a lovely comfortable seating space at the back.

Service is quick and cheerful, which makes it the perfect place for my caffeine fix when I'm in this part of town.

Pastries and coffee are very good. Pastries are light but very delicious. I highly recommend the their tarts and baguette sandwiches.

We had our best food day when we at Paul's for breakfast and Al Arrez next door for dinner!! The coffee here is great! The breakfast foods were amazing!!! The croissants, pain au chocolate, quiche, croque monsieur, and abricot anglaise were all spot-on perfect French cuisine. As we left, they were putting out the sandwiches for lunch, which also looked great!

There is a small sitting area in back, or you can take-out for a slightly cheaper bite to eat. There may be a line, but don't be deterred, it moves quickly. They do have a bathroom in the back as well.

I stayed down the road from this place on my trip to London and woke up every morning to get a pastry. One of my favorite were the beignet balls and the croissants.

The croissants were "almost" Paris good with a flakey, buttery, and crispy outer layer that crumbles with every bite.

I also tried the leek quiche but thought the leeks were a tad overwhelming. I would absolutely urge you to give this place a go.

5 stars for the hot chocolate! My friend kept talking this place up and that I had to try it. The hot chocolate is so thick and rich, it's definitely no instant mix stuff like I find back home. There's a Paul's not far from where I live in the US, I'll definitely be checking it out when I return!

At Paul, you'll find traditional French fare without any fuss. All you have to do is walk in, point to what you'd like and before you know it, you'll be scarfing down some of the tastiest and quickly prepared French food in the central London.

There's an expansive selection of breads, sandwiches and gateaux. I love the chausson aux pommes, they are perfectly flakey, with a delicious apple center! Paul is a mainly a lunch or bunch place, be sure to get there before the afternoon because you may find that the sandwich of your choice is gone.

Paul is known as French bakery which serve many kind of food , pastries , such as sandwiches , salads, pasta, cakes , macaroons ,they also have hot drinks and milk shakes with different flavors ...I like this shop because it's open early .. Therefore people who is going to there jobs they can have a coffee and pastry .its one of there deals which cost ( 3.25£ ) it's really an excellent deal.. There food and coffee was delicious .. I had my morning latte and tart .. It's located in the heart of London opposite to Harrods .. Staff are friendly like the service

I in an apartment behind Paul and on my first morning in London decided to stop in for a croissant and a cappuccino. I was blown away for the croissant because it tasted as good as a Parisian pastry. I came back to this place every day of my stay. On the last morning, I discovered the chocolate beignet. And it was the MOST delicious thing I have ever ate. It was so good that I had to go back for more and woke up early to get it before my flight home. This was one of the best things I have ever ate. I strongly recommend going to Paul.
