The Wolseley
A grand cafe-restaurant in an old car showroom!

Set in the heart of Piccadilly, owners Christopher Corbin and Jeremy King created a theatrical, glamorous and buzzing dining room. Serving right through the day (from 7am) you have every kind of dining experience at your finger tips, whether it's a champagne breakfast to a post theatre dinner. Celebrities that frequent there include Sienna Miller and Jude Law separately of course! A truly spectacular dining room, go for the Dover Sole or stalwart favourite: the hamburger and you can't go wrong.

staff were very nice, came in because my cousin was just out of nick and we wanted a bit of a knees up. food was really good and the staff were nice, be sure to ask for the 'doggy bag', they wrap it themselves for you and everything! did seem a bit put out though because we all chipped in and we paid with coins, one of the waiters kept looking at us funny as well....i think he fancied our trish. nice place!

I go as often as I can - absolute gem and really not that expensive for London.
A must if you visit the city.

The Wolseley is a great place for entertaining, people are charmed and in awe of the impressive dining room. The atmosphere is great and eventhough the menu is quite basic, it works. I would recommend it for a celebration. I really enjoy breakfast there and afternoon tea is also yummy. It's just a shame that you can't go there for a drink as it is a great people watching spot - lots of celebs and high profile business men 'seal the deal' at the Wolseley!
Elegantly Charming

One of the best places in London which is worth you making an effort.
Elegant and beautiful you will not miss the opportunity to impress your loved one/mama and papa/the people you care the most
Definitely a hot spot for nice Sunday brunches and yummy breakfasts or, to compete with their neighbors, a nice 5pm Tea time break
enjoy!
Consistently wonderful

And even when crowded with celebrities, the staff never make you feel second rate. The fish is always superb, as is the wiener schnitzel. Plus, it's open late on Sunday nights - when there's almost always a table.
Not all that

I've only been to the Wolsely once, but it was a big disappointment. The food was boring and conventional, and poorly executed. Service was rushed and sparse. I hear it's great for breakfast though.
pretty damn classy

Effortless old fashioned charm and ambiance but sharp attention to detail and service. Good place to impress guests if they've never been.
Fab
Always good people watching and it has a reasonably priced afternoon tea.
