Claridge's ArtSpace Café

Located just behind the renowned Claridge's Hotel, this chic café complements its sumptuous menu with a visual feast—a spacious art gallery found in the basement. The café's interiors, skillfully designed by John Pawson, provide an inviting yet minimalist setting that serves as a calming retreat from the busy streets nearby. Guests tuck into a menu predominantly centered on breakfast and brunch with highlights such as the exquisite Tornado Eggs with greens and bread, salmon bagels, and delectable crepes filled to perfection. Despite some inconsistencies in service behaviour, many would champion the staff overall as friendly and attentive, with certain individuals particularly lauded for their warm care. The culinary offerings are bolstered by their sophisticated pastries and desserts like the vanilla caramel mille-feuille, often complemented by balanced cups of coffee or special matcha drinks. Visitors should also make time to explore the art exhibits downstairs, further enriching the overall experience at this unique destination.
