+ An expensive breakfast, but worth the experience. A renowned cafè-restaurant located in a prime location. Sophisticated dining in a beautiful setting, with good service. A nice treat.

- The English breakfast could have included a piece of toast at least for the price paid, rather than being an extra, charged, add on :/

Came here for afternoon tea. It was fairly decent. The sandwiches were nice, scones were really fresh and tasty and the desserts were ok. I didn’t think it was particularly outstanding but it was tasty. Some of the desserts were a little too sweet. I enjoyed the hot chocolate. Service was great, our waitress was lovely and gave us gold recommendations for tea. She kindly let us takeaway our leftovers too and wrapped up an extra person for our friend who couldn’t make it.

Always impeccable service and great food. We were super late for our reservation due to road closures but they were so accommodating (parade on Piccadilly) and allocated us a table later than planned. We love it here and find the atmosphere much more pleasant than the city branch.

Just had a really splendid all out birthday afternoon tea at the Wolseley (my Top Tip - eat as little as you can for 24 h beforehand to do full justice to this menu!).

Some beautifully executed food, including a fantastic twist - their London Rarebit adds top quality bacon & soft yolked egg to the toasted cheesy sourdoughy magnificence of a Welsh Rarebit. Absolutely delicious. Plus one of the nicest hot chocolates I have ever had (and have done some extensive testing over my life!).

Best of all was the beautiful service from our lovely waiter Ian. One of my dining out benchmarks is whether people pay attention when I ask for the really icy water I adore. Ian brought me my very own well laden silver ice bucket and tongs - superlative! A highly capable, nice and kind man, nothing too much trouble and almost everything already quietly provided before we even knew we wanted them.

Also a very beautiful environment to dine in.

Thanks for a wonderful birthday treat - we are already planning our return in the New Year!

The Wolseley, Café de Londres, Cuisine Exquise à West End

The Wolseley is housed in a Grade II* listed building designed by William Curtis Green in 1921. Originally a car showroom for Wolseley Motors, it later became a branch of Barclays Bank. After extensive renovations, it reopened in 2003 as The Wolseley, an all-day café-restaurant in the grand European tradition.

The Wolseley: A Timeless London Landmark At Piccadilly 160 

Nestled in the heart of London’s iconic Piccadilly, The Wolseley stands as a shining example of architectural heritage and culinary excellence. This distinguished establishment occupies a Grade II listed building whose story unfolds over a century, weaving together classic European elegance with vibrant British tradition. Since its inception as a café-restaurant in 2003, The Wolseley has become a beloved destination for locals, tourists, foodies, and culture enthusiasts alike.

The story of The Wolseley begins in 1921, when the current building was originally constructed to serve as a car showroom for Wolseley Motors. Its stunning architecture and grandeur made it a perfect space to showcase luxury automobiles, reflecting the spirit of innovation and style of the early 20th century. This heritage is still palpable today, preserved beautifully through the building’s Grade II listing.

In 1927, the building transitioned from automotive elegance to financial prestige when Barclays Bank took over the premises, serving the public for over seven decades until 1999. This period added another layer of historical significance to the space, embedding it firmly within London’s evolving urban tapestry.

In 2003, restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King spearheaded an extensive renovation to transform this historic landmark into The Wolseley we know today. Their vision was to blend the building’s rich British heritage with a refined European brasserie ambiance, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming dining environment. The result is an elegant café-restaurant that pays homage to its past while offering exceptional modern European cuisine.
