About Arthur's Café Restaurant
Arthur's Café Restaurant is a London cafe just outside Kensal Rise station, serving classic British breakfast in a wood-panelled interior. The kitchen starts cooking early in the morning and works through breakfast, brunch and lunch. Breakfast Set 2 brings egg, sausage, two strips of bacon, bubble and squeak, beans and toast on one plate. A mushroom omelette sits alongside it for a lighter order, and bread and butter pudding with custard rounds out the menu. The cafe closes in the early evening, and it is fully licensed for anyone who wants a drink with a daytime meal.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often come for the breakfast, singling out Breakfast Set 2 with egg, sausage, bacon, bubble and squeak, beans and toast, along with a veggie breakfast and a mushroom omelette. Close behind is the service, described again and again as friendly and quick, with food arriving hot and staff who found nothing too much trouble. The orange juice, cappuccino and tea draw praise, and one reviewer photographed a bread and butter pudding with custard and ice-cream. Several describe a traditional, wood-panelled British cafe that feels warm and welcoming, and a few mention reasonable prices and years of regular visits. The only criticism is mild: one reviewer found the mushroom omelette nice but a bit dry. Some note they stopped in after a long flight or while working nearby and plan to return, and one says the bacon and toast were cooked just how they liked.

“We’ve been using Arthur’s recently while we’ve been working in the area. It’s common for us to use cafe’s as we’re on the road a lot and have long days. There’s plenty of very good spots in London but this is right up there. It’s clean, it’s friendly, it’s professional, the menu has something for everyone and it’s all delicious. They understand how to run a business and they know how to cook. We come back to Kensal Rise in a few weeks. I’m looking forward to it. Well done.”
