Unfortunately not a happy experience.
The location and venue are lovely but that’s where the experience turns to sad and depressive.
The staff and there demeanour is terrible. If you’re feeling a little down and sad a visit to this caffe will make you feel better as the welcome you receive is so unhappy you could probably never be that unhappy yourself.
Very poor service and extremely non interested in the customer and delivering an experience is not high or not at all on there agenda. I don’t think I’ve been anywhere that I have felt that but welcome than here.
The food is ok but grossly

Service is consistently good at all Caffè Concerto's (although you always feel slightly rushed as they remove your plate just as the last mouthful goes in), but they never seem to have Almond Croissants - have been to four now...all sold out. Coffee was passable.

My friend and I had an afternoon tea. The service was absolutely awful. The person seving us was not paying attention to us at all.The sandwiches were below the expected standard. The most meagre finger food I ever had. We were also served chopped testless olives in a stale bread as a sandwich. Needless to say that it was not edible. The cakes were tasteless and soggy.
It is very disappointing that we had to pay £55.95 for such awful service and food.
We will definitely not return to this particular branch of caffe concerto.

Beautifully decorated café with a good Italian cuisine and a large dessert menu. The food is well presented and tasty. The service is fast. They offer afternoon tea at a good price with a nice variety of small pastries, cakes and sandwiches. Highly recommended

This restaurant looks great, kinda 1920 vibe. You are greeted by a visual assault of cake and macros in ever Shap and colour absolutely perfect in every detail, sadly that's where the perfect experience comes to an end. The staff are apathetic food slow to say the least. While we wait for our food two other tables left hungry. We waited over an hour for breakfast and when it arrived it was cold. Very very disappointed. Yet again a beautiful restaurant let down by the food and service.

We required a good meal prior to a nearby concert and Caffe Concerto didn't disappoint. Despite not having a booking, they fit us in and we ordered a risotto dish and a gnocchi dish; both were quite good. We also enjoyed a wine and an after meal espresso. Service was efficient and friendly. Would definitely go back.

Flying visit pre Jersey Boys, around the corner. Great option for light bites pre or post theatre. Service fast. Very nice cakes. Glitzy interior. London prices

The presentation and café are beautiful, the cakes look yummy. The staff was friendly -although not always attentive to customers trying to get their attention to order or pay. However I was disappointed by the taste of the cakes. The pistachio honey cake had a very very strong bitter aftertaste. The cheesecake was a bit moussy with a gelatinous top.The latte was small for what it costs. Overall I think it’s too pricey for what it is… not good value for money.

Really nice decor and atmosphere. The cakes never disappoint but the staff is the highlight. On shift was Alex and Carmen, they're both great. We witnessed Carmen handle a difficult situation with such grace, calm, professionalism and kindness. We were both made to feel very welcome. Amazing place, will come back and recommend to others.

The worst service. Wait staff just walk up and stare - not a smile, not a word such as " care to order", nothing. Wait staff delivers food by tossing plates of food on table and walking away, quickly. Extremely sullen, unpleasant staff! My iced mocha had no ice -- it was room temperature, as well. Coffee requested with milk had no milk, and of course, wait staff had to be flagged down to bring milk plus a glass with ice so I could add it to my iced mocha! Will not return!

Certainly not open till 11pm. In fact I was quite disappointed when they decided not to service at 9:25 PM on a Sunday night.
I got to say I expected more out of you London this is pretty disappointing

I stopped here with a friend for tea.
It is a nice cafe and the server was friendly and attentive.
I really enjoyed relaxing here and sipping on tea. I would definitely return in the future.

Slow service and rude staff are the main drivers behind this disgruntled review. My distaste for the service was far worse than any opinion I had on the food. I don't recommend visiting.

Staying at a nearby hotel, this was very convenient to walk. Seated very quickly, yet after looking at menus, waited 5-8 minutes for our order to be taken by an unenthusiastic and uninterested server.
Surprisingly, the food came very FAST, but faster than tea, water, or Orange Juice.
Eggs Benedict: average with a very thick and dense muffin.
Ham and cheese Croissant: average and I would order something else if I went back.
So, I might go back, but only because of the location.
(But the pastry case looked amazing!)

Very so-so. Coffee is fine but not great. Prices are comically laughably hysterically outrageously overpriced. But, it was open on Christmas Day, so it was one of very few options for grabbing a coffee.

There are many Caffé Concertos in London. We stopped at this one twice during our week-long trip to London. They are a good option for a quick afternoon tea or coffee and desserts, or for lunch and dinner. The decor and ambiance is designed to resemble a traditional Italian cafe. The desserts are excellent. They offer a large variety of pastries, gelato, and coffee drinks. We also tried the afternoon tea with the sandwiches, pastries, and condiments. All were quite respectable. The Cappuccino, the Affogato, and the Tiramisu are excellent. They also have a full bar. While we had experienced pretty

We stopped here for a quick breakfast bite before a walking tour. I really enjoyed it. We had a chocolate crossing and a raspberry danish with a couple of lattes. There aren't a lot of places open early in London but this place was very good. I would recommend this place.

Great place to go if you'd like to experience a traditional, fancy, English afternoon tea without breaking your bank! Servers are friendly and I highly recommend the outdoor seating if it's a nice day and you enjoy some people watching.
You can get tea, food, and pastries here, but I found the afternoon tea to be the most appealing. You get a three tier rack of finger foods including savory sandwiches on bottom, biscuits and jam in the middle, and sweets on top with a choice of tea (I had chai masala). This option is £38 all together if you have tea for two (so £19 per person) and

Loved the decor, the food and service. Caffe Concerto is a chain of restaurants throughout London. First dinner we ate after landing. The decor was so gorgeous that we decided to eat there and we did not regret. The waiter was super nice. I loved the food unfortunately did not try the deserts which looked amazing but next time i am
In London i will try and post some desert photos. Will be back again and to the same location.

Good place to eat in central London.
Very nice ambiance. Food took long time to come for lunch time. But it was well worth the wait food was very delicious. Very good presentation of food it looked good and tasted good. Service was just ok not as expected to the level as the restaurants seems to be. But will go back again.

Tourist trap!!

Awful Italian food, terrible desserts and abysmal service... really the only thing they did well was heat water for the tea.

Avoid if you can, a waste of money without any authentic charm

Great place for an afternoon tea experience. Even if that means 10 pm

The atmosphere inside takes you to the old cafes in Austria, the music it's old classy kinda style. I had an english breakfast tea and one eclair, soo good. Like the ones I used to eat in the very old places in Bucharest (Little Paris experience).

They stay open till late and they are located close to Piccadilly/trafalgar square, so busy busy cute area.

The waiters wear nice uniformes and they are very attentive, too much sometimes :))

The entire evening there was l o v e l y

After a long day spent shopping at Harrods, we thought it was a good idea to stop by for some snacks and this little cafe looked so charming! We were greeted right on arrival and seated as so.

The ambiance was very warm and relaxing with the classy chandeliers and red velvet seats. Our waitress however seemed a bit lost as she forgot to bring us the wine we had ordered and we even reminded her to bring it about three times. After that we just decided to leave it be and continued to wait for our food, which was so worth the wait! We ordered a delicious bread sampler and a few pastries and we were

When we walked past Caffe Concerto we were both going through some serious gelato withdrawl. Spending 11 days touring Italy will do that to you...

It didn't occur to us in that moment that we were in England, a land famous for its fish/chip dishes and sticky toffee puddings. But after a long day of touring central London our eyes read "italian gelato" in fancy script and there was no convincing our minds or our feet of just walking past the cafe.

It was not the best gelato we had in Europe. Not even close.

The strawberry didn't really taste like strawberries and the
