Festive breakfast recommendation

[yeknomyeknom]

I'm meeting a friend, probably in the West End on Monday at 9am for breakfast. I fancy doing something festive. Anyone have any ideas?

If you are feeling flush, the restaurant at Fortnum & Mason is very nice for breakfast and offers plenty of chances to spend any money you have left on festive goodies afterwards.

The Woolsley is also great for breakfast

I recommend the Delaunay at Aldwych. You can book for breakfast/brunch or just turn up and they'll put you in the ante-room (not the cafe at the side).

Both Delaunay and Wolesley above are spot on suggestions.

Dean Street Townhouse on, er, Dean St, Soho is pretty good too. Need to book even at 8.30.

Thanks everyone. I love all the places mentioned above and they are fab for breakfast. But I'm looking for somethng festive, Christmassy. Somewhere with a roaring fire, or tree or, I don't know, a theme? I'm not entirely sure what makes a place feel festive. Any more great ideas?

i dont know where a place like that would be. it will all depend on the shop and how they decide to decorate for this time of year but the ones mentioned are above are the ones i would also recommend.

Thanks joana, I understand it depends on the particular establishment. Let me word this another way. Has anyone been out in or walked past an eatery that looks particularly festive recently?

The Rosewood Hotel in Holborn is looking very fetive at the moment (I can see it from my window at work) and has a lovely restaurant that do breakfasts. Might be worth looking at.

If you find a place with a real fire open for breakfast in central London - let me know!

Hawksmoor at Guildhall

But don't plan anything after

I went to the Holborn a Dining Rooms at the Rosewood , Holborn this morning. Lovely room and quite festive but slightly irritated to have the ma?tre d 'high five' me at 800am. The food was ok, but not as good as Dean St and more expensive.
