  • After the terrible breakfast that I had at Harrods recently, I've been recommended by so many of you to try Regency Cafe and didn't realise how popular it was. Had to give it a go in the early afternoon as I was busy with work so it's more of a brunch but lets give it a go anyway!

    The Regency cafe is great, especially for breakfast. The prices are usually very competitive to be in Westminster. Great and honest review as always, Gary! Nice to see the evolution from 200 subs to now over 3000 in such a short amount of time. Keep up the great work, mate!

    The Kennington Lane directly opposite the back of Vauxhall station is one of the best cafes in London. Am retired now, but I used that place for nearly 5 years, every morning. The Special breakfast is best. Delicious, the sausage is not frozen to start with, the bread is bloomer, eggs are great as is the rest of it. You will enjoys a breakfast there. Halil the guy who runs the place makes you feel very welcome too, the whole place is brilliant. Highly recommended.

      I actually went there the other day Tony but it was so busy that it was almost impossible to do a video and out of respect to other diners, I don't think it's fair to disturb their meal but when I notice it's a bit quieter, I will give it a try! Thank you for watching.

    Force fed cooked breakfasts every Sunday morning as a child in the 1960's by a fiercely religious mother
    Hard bacon snotty eggs kippers
    Eneough to put you off for life
    However your full English looks beautiful and eating it around 2 pm sounds like a great idea
    Buttering toast to a little jazz piano is surely a stroke of genius
    Gary , you've really nailed it here !

    A very well established eating spot, not only for breakfast, have a look at the menu . I used to work nearby. Always a good feed and the staff are first rate, hard working group of cooks and servers . A real café and for the family and others visiting in the area, ie walking distance from Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Palace of Westminster etc. The down side try and avoid lunch time, the customers are queuing inside and around the corner, says a lot really. When I am up London and nearby, an excellent port of call. Ps What no service charge, it maybe just maybe they pay every one a fair wage.

    I am always amazed that people try to tell you what you "must" eat in these reviews, such as mushrooms and brown sauce. I don't enjoy either of those things - they spoil the experience for me. I wouldn't choose black pudding, but if white pudding was there, it would go on my plate. We all have different likes and dislikes - and some of us have allergies or aversions that dictate what we can eat. Your plates are always varied and you give honest, straight forward reviews, without compromise. Keep on doing what you do, Gary! Really enjoying your content, approach and variety - a bit like a decent Full English, a la Liz would be - nothing complicated!

    Hello Gary. I came across you’re channel yesterday and I have to say it’s absolutely superb. I’ve watched almost all of the rest of your content since. You have a great under stated approach to presenting, you are the right side of tasteful (no pun intended!!), with a natural likeable persona. I love how you present and talk about the food-with a passion but without the silly frills that one sees a lot of utubers attempt to do. It “has to be” brown sauce on a fried breakfast. Very good price too.
    The food looked really good and the old style cafe was an authentic setting. Loved the jazz piano vibes too. I hope as the channel grows (which I have no doubt it will) I hope you venture further a field, trying different towns and cities in the UK.
    I look forward to more videos. All the best from Liverpool.

      Speaking of Liverpool, I will no doubt be there before the end of the year to do a video or two. Please let me know some real good places/hidden gems. I daren't ask whether you're the red or the blue side of Merseyside. Have a great Sunday. Thank you!

    Well, that beats Harrods' full English hands down for me. Really competitive price, plenty of it (I would have opted for mushrooms, though) and it looked cooked the way I like a full English. A piece of properly cooked fried bread and thick sliced toast - bang on.

    Good to see the beans served on the plate instead of in a silly pot next to the plate. I see before you start tucking in that the beans are providing moisture and additional flavour to the sausage, black pudding, bacon and fried bread.
    Edit : can you explain the piercing of the toast crust? Never seen that before.

    • @GaryEats

    Firstly I’m really impressed with the knife cleaning hack before spreading the butter, that’s awesome. The breakfast looks really nice and the egg is perfect (for me) soft but not running into everything. The breakfast is definitely a fair price considering it’s cooked delivered and washed up afterwards and it’s London so reasonably priced.
    Great videos keep up the good work 👍

Just got home from work and could eat that plate right now! The egg needed to be a bit more runny as the fried bread was just sat there waiting to soak up the yolk!!

    Hi Gary, this review is one of only a couple of your older videos I hadn't watched yet, so I put it on over dinner. As soon as I started the video, I had a major flashback & thought... Hang on, that's in Westminster! 😅 I must have walked past the Regency cafe a dozen times during my holiday to London in 2019. I was staying at a hotel that was only a few minutes walk from this cafe. My partner (at the time) really wanted to try it, but the two times we went, the line was out the door & half way down the street, so we didn't actually make it there.
    Great to see this review! The breakfast looked pretty good, but you've definitely had some better breakfasts on the channel in recent months I'd say. Take care. 💙

    The beans need to be in a ramekin on the plate, which gives a semblance of order and consistency. I don’t want my bacon swimming in bean juice.

    I do like the Regency Cafe and eaten there a few times but I've never quite gotten the hype around it. Maybe its location means its one of the few places a tourist can get to sample a proper fry up in a traditional setting and at a very non Westminster price. In terms of London overall, it's about on a par quality-wise with plenty of other places. Either way, Gary, I've just discovered your channel and love your content, especially the way you mix it up: covering greasy spoons and michelin stars with equal honesty and no evident bias.

    Def recommended if you're passing. The guy's Turkish and he's dead cool because if he already has six breakfasts on the go all at once and if a group walks in and places an order he doesn't panic.

I always try to visit small businesses and avoid the nationals if I can. The fried bread looked lovely.
