I've heard a lot about this place, and I was really excited to give it a try. We were lucky to get a table as soon as we arrived, and the staff welcomed us warmly. We ordered Turkish eggs, togarashi scrambled eggs, orange juice, V60, and their famous pancakes ! Although the dough was nothing like traditional pancakes, it was super soft and creamy! The toppings were great too (that week's flavor was salted caramel and banana). Overall, our experience was fantastic, and it was totally worth the wait, if there was any!

Absolutely loved my experience at Apple Butter Cafe! I stopped by for breakfast and ordered the pancack and a falafel sandwich—both were absolutely delicious. The pancack was rich, comforting, and full of flavor, while the falafel sandwich had the perfect balance of crispiness and freshness. Everything tasted homemade and thoughtfully prepared. The service was excellent—friendly, fast, and very attentive. The staff made sure we felt welcome and taken care of the entire time. The atmosphere of the cafe was cozy, vibrant, and beautifully decorated. It had a warm, inviting vibe that made the meal even more enjoyable. A perfect spot to start your day. Definitely a place I’d recommend and can’t wait to visit again!

So I heard about this place on a recent online review and every time I went to London and wanted to get a table it was almost impossible. Long waiting list, a huge queue outside, I just didn’t have the patience to wait. On my last visit to London I managed to get a table! ... I’LLTELL YOU SOMETHING I’M SO GLAD I DID BECAUSE THE EXPERIENCE WAS THE BEST!! Food is amazing tasty, hot, well seasoned and the portions are good sizes. We had scrambled egg with truffle oil and mushrooms (excellent!), shakshuka (the business!) a mint lemonade (refreshing and delicious) and a BLACK SESAME LATTE ( never heard before but wow ). The service outstanding! the food outstanding! the staff outstanding! Definitely coming back for more Ps: you got to try the pancakes ... customers were very happy with them.... Will have to give them a go myself ... No doubt a 10

My experience at apple butter was amazing! I was a bit skeptical to visit this place as the reviews has shown negative feedback about their service, however, for me it was top notch. I came here to have brunch with my friend. There was no queue and we were seated immediately. I ordered pancakes of the day and my friend ordered the truffle scrambled egg. I thought it would be overhyped, but both dishes actually tasted really good. I ordered their regular latte (which was okay). The atmosphere was nice. We were lucky to be seated by the window and servers were really nice. Can't complain and definitely recommend! :)

Dropped by on a Sunday afternoon for brunch. They don’t take reservations, so we queued for about 20 minutes - fairly reasonable given how busy it was. The cafe is beautifully designed and just a 5-minute walk from Covent Garden station. We were mainly there for the pancakes and French toast ; I had the Pina Colada pancakes, which were light and tropical. My friends enjoyed their French toast, and we also tried the Biscoff latte, cinnamon roll latte, and iced tea. Service was warm, though a little slow at times (e.g., getting cutlery or the bill), likely due to the weekend rush. Still, the overall experience was lovely - great food, pretty space, and well worth a visit.

I Stumbled upon this amazing cafe with a cozy, vibrant ambience. It is perfect for a relaxed brunch. I ordered the Turkish Eggs and Chicken Vol-au-vent, and both were absolutely delicious. The eggs were creamy and flavorful, while the vol-au-vent was rich, flaky, and perfectly done. Highly recommend checking this place out if you are in London.

Great experience! When we arrived, there was a short wait, but thankfully we got seated quickly. We ordered the avocado halloumi toast and added poached eggs it was good! The Turkish eggs with tahini were especially tasty, definitely a must try. We also had the mango smoothie with granola light, refreshing, and very enjoyable. The staff were kind and friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We've been coming here for 3 years now, right before it got viral on tiktok and all the queueing at the door lol we love this little cosy cafe and their amazing pancakes. You get flavour of the day, so you get different options randomly, the croissant hollandaise eggs are delicious! We had the affogatto espresso and so yummi
