Escorted my 11 year old here for business. Security, bar staff, waiters, cleaners, chefs are all dedicated, hard working individuals who couldnt be faulted at all. Everyone was very helpful, welcoming and friendly. He had a fantastic time.

I have been here about 3 times now, twice for meetings. Not sure why it is always relatively quiet when I go in as it is a lovely place. I think it might be because it's a bit of a building site outside at the...moment. It's spacious, very nice decor, good pastries, generous drinks sizes and nice service. Same prices as the nearby grungy chains but so much better!More
Exhibition is pushing it. About ten little photo's of unrecognisable people somehow connected to the television and film world all displayed within the cafe. Then downstairs five outfits worn by Jodie Comer in Killling Eve.
What a find, great cafe with just the best and most friendly lady behind the counter you could meet. Service with a massive smile, delicious Christmas cake and coffee. Cannot recommend enough.
Accidentally found this so peaceful cafe after failing to find refreshments in Fortnums. It was our lucky day. The selection of eatables was lovely and the staff so very friendly. Enquired how our day was going- had our shopping been successful? Individual tea pots and...crispy croissants. The exhibits - Marlborough’s wig from “ The Favourite “ and Villanelles dress from Killing Eve to mention two, were superb. Just lovely.More
nice alternative to the main building whilst it undergoes refurbishment. Could be open for some of the evening however.
Very quiet and deserves to be busier. Friendly staff. Excellent cakes. Good F & M teas and a strong smooth coffee. Reasonable prices.
A nice quiet fresh space off busy Piccadilly. Unusual selection of lunch items which was nice to see. Not a huge menu but nicely put together. I had a beetroot, goats cheese, toasted pumpkin seed etc salad and it was really fresh and tasty. It...was measured out in a small cereal bowl but cost £5.40. As a lunch salad it was not at all large enough and very much over priced. I did complain and was given more which was nice but I think they need to be more realistic on their portion/price. We decided to go somewhere else to get dessert.More
Stopped by on a rainy Saturday afternoon for a drink. Very reasonable prices and friendly staff. Will definitely return.
I was here for the launch party of the MS Society's Stop MS Campaign. Bafta is not quite as glamorous in real life as it looks when it appears on the TV. While there seemed to be lots of staff, helpfulness was obviously not part...of their job descriptions. Nice posh loos, but the left luggage area small and pretty insecure. The drinks were pretty good and the mini snacks very tasty.More
I visited the ground floor cafe at Bafta’s Piccadilly HQ which I noticed for the first time. It feels as much exhibition space as cafe because all around the front space and on a row of posters effectively curtaining off the rear space are photographs...from films, of landscapes, actresses and a young Tom Courtenay. A huge metallic BAFTA mask invites a personal injury claim if one gets too close. This afternoon from a well-staffed counter were available a wide range of beverages, pastries and desserts. No complaints about my double espresso and Chelsea bun both available at a slightly more competitive price than at many a High Street chain. An excursion to the downstairs restrooms necessitated the passing by of a large basement dining space the entrance to which was policed (sadly) neither by a man in a mask nor Joanna Lumley.More
Greeted by very friendly gentleman who served us when we dropped in on a Sunday afternoon as we were passing. It was very quiet as we were ahead of the rush of people heading home at the end of the day but we had our...pick of tables. Clean, stylish and not as expensive as you might think. My salad was delicious and my daughter loved her cake. Our gins were excellent and the recommendation of tonic was spot on. We would definitely visit again.More
Me and My Mother went into the BAFTA cafe and we wanted to get her a plain cheese toastie and the guys behind the counter made her welcome and did that for her and I was really appreciative. Very nice welcoming staff!
We had reasonably priced salad bowls and very good coffee in BAFTA near Piccadilly Circus, all served by a chatty man who said they had been open just two weeks. It doesn’t look like a cafe cum restaurant from outside but we all enjoyed the...food, and as a venue it is much more interesting than most central London places.More
No red carpet but an iconic venue. Treated as VIPs. The bar on the second floor was spacious and lively and although crowded, seats were available. A great opportunity to experience the Film Theatre that has hosted many Stars of the Silver Screen
