Breakfast Club

After beating the queue, the service was fast and efficient and the food very yummy! The place has a great atmosphere the only downside is that it´s a bit noisy!

After half a dozen failed attempts over several weeks to beat the queues and get a table (we're local - it isn't far to walk) we finally arrived to a less than half-full restaurant and were looking forward to seeing if this place was worth the hype. Had to find a waiter to see if it were ok if we grabbed a table. 10 minutes later we had to ask for menus - which arrived, but no drinks menus. Waiting staff were serving others, eating their meals (!) and filling sauce bottles. But after quite some time when they finally turned up to take our order we'd kind of lost our appetite, said we'd decided to go elsewhere and left. The food might be fantastic (I couldn't comment - we didn't try it) but the service was decidedly lacklustre. Disappointed.

This place is delicious. A "must-see" in Hoxton. Everything on the menu is to die for. Prices are also good.

Every time I have been to this restaurant I have received excellent service and amazing food. I love going out to eat and I have explored many restaurants in London. This one is one I will keep returning to. The ambiance is wonderful; it is warm and colourful and quirky. The service is great; waiters are friendly and we didn't have to wait too long; they brought us water, etc. The food is reasonably priced but also creative and delicious. The pastrami sandwich was a perfect mixture of flavours, and just the right amount of food. The burrito was huge, and delicious and customizable. The burgers are fresh and cooked the way you want them. The fries are seasoned and delicious. Oh! And pitchers of smoothies are great, and affordable. They have many different flavours to try. Ironically I haven't yet tried the breakfast food yet, but my boyfriend had the Eggs Benedict and said it was one of the best he's had. It looked amazing, anyway.

We were a group of 5, arrived to see the Mayor and were told "There's quite a long list to see the Mayor tonight" and were directed to a booth. We waited 45 minutes for the so called table service, even though we repeatedly tried to catch their eye and wave them over. Finally we approached the bar and were told to wait in out booth for the table service. When the waiter finally strolled over, he walked away before we had finished ordering so that we had yet again to approach the bar to finish the order. When leaving, the till was broken and it took 15 minutes to write up our bill, even though we were the last people there. Nice place, pity about the terrible and borderline rude staff. Could learn a thing or two from their Hoxton counterparts, who are always lovely.

Was so annoyed with the way we were treated - we arrived at the breakfast club at 8:30 and was told it would be about 40mins to "see the mayor". 90mins and £82 pound later we complained and was told we would be next. Another 30mins later we were told we could go down and we were left for 10 mins at the door for someone to take us down. When we finally got down stairs at 10:40ish we found loads of people who arrived after us down there enjoying their cocktails. Was not impressed so we left. The Breakfast Club was good but as we only went in there to see the mayor I am rating 1 star!!
